Bryan Ward, What Does Star Wars Mean To You?
He's the Photoshop artist behind countless viral Star Wars memes, now Bryan Ward (Graphic Designer) joins us to chat about his journey through that galaxy far, far away. Bryan shares how Star Wars shaped his life and career, why he champions "weird Star Wars" like Dexter Jettster, and how the infamous line “Somehow Palpatine returned” became a creative cornerstone for him. We discuss the impact and power of behind-the-scenes magic, fan art, design culture, and the power of inclusive fandom. It’s a celebration of the strange, the nostalgic, and the deeply creative world of Star Wars — all with a heavy dose of humor, insight, and just a little touch up in Photoshop!
