The Hollywood Strikes and Star Wars (WGA & SAG-AFTRA) // #215

Season 1, Ep. 328
•

Writers and actors are currently striking in order to receive fair pay and benefits. Until major studios rectify this, delays are inevitable, and we’re looking at how the upcoming Star Wars slate could potentially end up looking over the coming years. We also take YOUR opinions on your least anticipated upcoming projects, answer some filthy Patreon questions, and end on a game of ‘Not Just Kef Beers’...
