Six Degrees of Star Wars
Even before it became the property of a monstrously big corporation that started putting it everywhere, Star Wars was everywhere. Join us on a journey as we take the hyperspace lanes out of a galaxy far, far away and into other movies, finding all the ways George Lucas' flagship franchise surrounds us, binds us, and penetrates us.
Six Degrees of Star Wars
Episode 9: A Not So Special Holiday Episode
And you thought The Rise of Skywalker was the worst thing to happen to an Episode 9. We are joined by Ellie, Shami, and Dave to explore the utter madness of the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. Nothing shows the spirit of the holidays quite like Grandpa getting his jollies in the living room, problematic cooking shows, creepily animated shorts, and Bea Arthur.
