Breathe, just breathe – the Disney, Indiana podcast will be around in 2018. But before then, our hosts turn their attention to the latest episode in the Star Wars saga, Episode 8: The Last Jedi. They go through some production notes on the film, discuss its marketing and promotional tie-ins, examine the critical and popular response so far, as well as share their own thoughts. Along the way, they’ll check into the Main Street Cinema one more time this year and look ahead to 2018.
