On this episode of TransMissions Extra!, we go back to that galaxy far, far away. The new movie Star Wars: The Force Awakens is out, we've all seen it, and we're ready to talk all about it! Could Episode VII possibly live up to the hype? Does it rekindle our love of Star Wars? Is there any money left for other movies to make? We answer none of these questions, but we give you our opinions on this movie event! Of course, there are ginormous spoilers for Episode VII, so go see it first before you listen!

We usually spend the first 30 minutes of our TransMissions Skype call talking about other random topics before we record the main show. TransMissions Extra! is a more organized discussion of these topics recorded into a short podcast of its own. We hope you enjoy TransMissions Extra!
