It is once again time to celebrate May the 4th, and it's also high time we talked about one of the most perfect intersections of nerdy interests out there, the works of Ian Doescher--er, I mean, William Shakespeare as it pertains to the space wizard franchise that surrounds us, binds us, and penetrates us in the landscape of cinema. Join Jas, Sam, River, and a NUMBER of surprise voices for excerpts of the play, as we discuss the ways it succeeds and fails to adapt both Shakespeare's language, and the now legendary story of Star Wars.

The following podcast is for entertainment purposes only. The views and opinions expressed therein are solely those of the speakers. Additionally, any excerpts from this play in this episode are solely for the sake of review, and this podcast contains swearing, and discussions of war, violence, death, transphobic celebrities, and the politics of the day.

A very special thank you to Sam Marchiony, River Lane, Shamila Karunakaran, Bijou Daae, Leif Bradshaw, Conor Duffy, Rhapsody Blue, Jen Seggio, Charlotte Driftwood, Ella Cesari, Gillian Quigley, Violet Flohr, DGil, Meredith Cook, and Nick Castle for providing voices!
