So we started a podcast, in 2019 called Rise of the Podcast.

And then over the years as we've grown, we've just gone to a live stream format.

So every Saturday night we stream live for an hour and a half talking about Star Wars, but also our lives and the different funny things that happen to us on a daily basis.

It blurs the line between podcast and talk show.

We give the viewers a lot more power.

If people hit certain thresholds on some things that might trigger like a smoke show or a bunch of lights go out or some lasers.

So we wanted to do something where it looked like the set was going to like a red alert, like we're going to be boarded by some enemy space thing or whatever, right?

And now it's like it is the reddest greatest thing I've ever seen.

What started as just a couple of friends talking about Star Wars has really blossomed into a live show that's zany, wacky, crazy off the rails, but really inclusive A small part of it people appreciate that it's actually produced and made it right in Minnesota because there's just I don't think you get that level of production outside of your major metro areas.

So being a live northern Minnesota show really makes it special to a lot of people.
