Here are your host, Charlotte and Caitlin.

0:15.1

Hello and welcome to Sky Talkers.

0:17.1

I'm your host Charlotte.

0:18.1

Hey, everyone.

And welcome to this week's

0:21.3

episode where we are celebrating the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi with our own

0:27.9

40 things that we love about Return of the Jedi. There's so many things. There's more than 40

1:48.9
