The Star Wars Holiday Special aired only one time on November 17, 1978 and with good reason. The special features cameos from all of your favorite Star Wars characters, but mainly focuses on Chewbacca\\u2019s family. That\\u2019s right. The protagonists of your show are characters that can only roar and subtitles are not provided. Better brush up on your Wookiee language skills!

Randy juggles two jobs and is the miserable retail slave of the two. He lives outside beautiful Flint, MI, USA and struggles with being a lazy, yet overworked dreamer and a struggling, but barely trying writer.

Tommy also lives outside Flint, MI with The Beloved and his two step daughters. He\'s a stand up comedian and a man of questionable common sense. Check out his stand up dates and plan a trip to throw tomatoes at\\xa0http://tomethompson.com
