Summary

Bryan and Holly get together with Bobby Roberts to deconstruct the latest click-bait headlines in the world of Star Wars. From Chicken Little writing about the sky falling on the Solo production and the Brazilian poster foofaraw to "rumors" of Meryl Streep replacing Carrie Fisher in Episode IX, they cover it all. But more importantly, they break down why this sort of news happens and how you can inoculate yourself from fake news, both in Star Wars and in the real world. As a bonus! Stick around to hear Bobby Roberts talk about the job he did influencing the writing of Rogue One and he didn't even know it!
