In this special "mini" episode, Julia and Fern discuss their recent trip to Disneyland's Star Wars-themed park, Galaxy's Edge. They discuss the concept of transmedia, specifically how Star Wars exists in multiple forms: movies, TV series, books, video games, and now, amusement parks. How does Galaxy's Edge function as a greater part of the intertextual web of Star Wars? How can a theme park be "canon?" And most importantly, is Domhnall Gleeson's performance on Rise of the Resistance the campiest thing in all of Star Wars?
