Summary

Star Wars inspired audiences during a dark time in post-war America in the late 1970's. Now over 40 years later we find ourselves amid a global pandemic, with fans once again turning to Star Wars to escape the realities of life for a bit by journeying to a galaxy far, far away. We discuss Star Wars' cultural importance during uncertain times. We also must choose wisely in our segment One With the Force where we can only choose one answer to varying situations like, take any Star Wars character and put them in any movie or movie franchise outside of Star Wars. As always, we feature the best of your tweets in #ResistanceTransmissions! The Resistance base is open to all, so spread the word about TRB and join us!
