Welcome back to Star Wars Minute, I'm Jason Crane. I'm not the voice you were expecting.

I am a former contributor to Star Wars Minute and a morning show host in the middle of nowhere

and I'm on this episode to give you a behind the scenes look at the history of Star Wars

Bennett. My guest for this show are Pete the Retailer. Hi Pete.

Hello. And also Alex Robinson.

Hello Alex. Hey Jason Crane. Thank you very much. Thank you guys for agreeing to do this. I'm excited to kind of give folks a peek behind the curtain.

That's our pleasure. I'm a little nervous.

Thanks for having.

My pleasure.

Now, as far as this peak behind the curtain goes, this is going to be more of a

kind of an oral history of the show

because if you're a Patreon subscriber you've already gotten a peak behind the

technical curtain about how the show actually comes into existence all of the technical aspects of it and you know how

Pete puts it together and how that Alex and Pete run their social media and all that kind of stuff.

So if you're really interested in that aspect of the show the really technical aspect I highly recommend you become a Patreon subscriber and then go into the archives and find that

So this is going to be more about how the show came to exist in the first place.

And it seems like an obvious place to start,

and maybe we'll start with you, Alex.

Alex, how did you and Pete first meet one another?

Well, I am a cartoonist in my day job and Pete, not many people knows about Pete, at one point he was a retailer.

He worked at Forbidden Planet in New York City, what, two or three locations ago now?

Yeah.
