Ep 211: The Star Wars Holiday Special

Yes, it's really happening. We, the Movie Defenders, are going to defend the un-defendable. Actually, no... we aren't. But we're going to have fun! Can't defend it so let's just lean into the chaos :). We break down the craziness that is this special and we jump into the 'why' behind it, as well as the documentary, "A Disturbance in the Force" which tells the story of this special. Also, we discuss our top 5 pieces of Star Wars toys/memorabilia that we each have. So grab your life day glow balls, call up your favorite holo-net program, and yes... that's really Bea Arthur... it's time for The Star Wars Holiday Special on The Movie Defenders Podcast.
