Welcome to Looking at Lucasfilm, the podcast with a different perspective on the world of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and all of the other entities that George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, and the rest of the team at Lucasfilm have dreamed up over the past 40 years.

I'm Entertainment writer Jim Hill and my co-host, the one and only Dan Z, and I are recording this on Wednesday, October 16th.

It's been a while since Dan and I recorded it. this on Wednesday, October 16th.

It's been a while since Dan and I recorded a show together.

In fact, Dan, I actually, I owe you a thank you

because you covered for me at the Indie Disney meet when Nancy and I got sick and couldn't make the drive

out to Indianapolis. So thanks for doing that.

Hey that that was my pleasure in Ireland. Did I get to bring my good buddy Tom Gross who who joins me quite a bit on coffee with

Canobia as a C. W. A. W. A. K. Newman. But I got to spend a lot of time with the amazing Aaron Adams and he is

even more awesome in person. We had a blast. It was

great to talk to listeners and supporters of you and the Jim Hill Media Podcast Network.

It was fun. I'm telling you what I am I was actually

legitimately thinking about this morning how much I'm looking forward to going

back next year. Well more to the point you guys did good work I want to say they

raised 53,000 dollars for the did good

to say they raised $53,000 for the give kids the world village. So kudos to everybody was there.

Aaron reached out Aaron Del Prince, the gentleman behind Andy Disney Meade and was sort of like,

you're on board for the next one.

So it's like, so I guess it's the next one and I said yes.

So, and hopefully you can come along as well so oh yeah I'm looking forward to it okay anyway

folks again it's been a while since Dan and I've talked and a star destroyers worth of Star Wars related news has exploded in the pop culture sphere since that time.

So let's just get to it then.
