Michael Barryte, What Does Star Wars Mean To You?
Michael Barryte shares how he developed, wrote & produced the popular youtube videos, "What If The Prequels Were Good?" We talk about how seeing Return of the Jedi Special Edition got him into Star Wars, the Star Wars Rebellion board game, how to be creatively critical, the different sects of Star Wars fandom, Thrawn and the Heir to the Empire trilogy, how Andor surprises and of course Five with the Force.
