Today's episode features a conversation with the great J.W. Rinzler, the author of countless\xa0Star Wars behind-the-scenes books (my favorites) and one of the key voices for the galaxy for a long, long time.\xa0
We talk all about his start at Lucasfilm, working with Rick McCallum and (very closely) George Lucas. We also dive into George's later focuses and the importance of the prequels and Brandon reveals his 1999 Halloween costume.\xa0
The Enhanced Editions of his Making of\xa0trilogy can be found on iBooks and on Amazon and are\xa0seriously\xa0worth the $17.99: www.amazon.com/Making-Star-Wars-Enhanced-ebook/dp/B00DQQSD2W
We also discussed a few of his latest projects, including\xa0All Up, a fascinating look at the space program and its history: https://www.amazon.com/All-Up-J-W-Rinzler
Busy as ever, Mr. Rinzler's next book will be\xa0The Making of Planet of the Apes, which could be a whole episode in itself and can be pre-ordered here: https://www.amazon.com/Making-Planet-Apes-Jonathan-Rinzler
