Laugh It Up Fuzzballs (Ep. 270) Building a better Star Wars

Published: Nov. 22, 2021, 8:09 a.m.

Welcome to the place where we get to let our geek flags fly and talk about all things geek. Basically a fuzzy guide to life, the universe, and everything but mostly geek stuff. This is a look into the world of geekdom and some geek news, comics, The Simpsons, Star Wars, and whatever randomness finds its way onto the recording. This level of the podcast is another one of those fuzzy trio tackle an interesting premise and for this one, we attempt to discourse on building a better (or at least slightly different) Star Wars franchise all by just changing a thing or two. Completely a discussion born out of love for most of the movies but join as as we contemplate potential different things in a very fun dialogue between friends. Our ideas are cliff-noted (aka listed lazily) below.
