A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a young boy fell in love with a modern-day myth. Now, he is passing that love for Star Wars along to his two sons.

David Jesse’s first Star Wars memories were watching A New Hope on HBO; playing with 3.75” Luke Skywalker and Han Solo figures in his backyard; making lightsabers out of paper towel rolls, and picking his jaw up off the floor when he was given a Tie Fighter for Christmas. His family wasn’t the movie-going type, so he never had the privilege of seeing the Original Trilogy in theaters, but he definitely shook with disbelief when Darth Vader revealed that he was Luke’s father in the Empire Strikes Back. 

The last several weeks have been nothing short of an emotional rollercoaster thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re all experiencing big changes and shifts in our daily routines, especially because the vast majority of us are quarantined in our homes. From anxious to grateful and bored to hopeful, we’re all likely experiencing a vast array of emotions on a daily basis. In this time of uncertainty, not only is that okay, but it’s completely understandable! 

It’s a new year, and with that, we know many of you have goals to really take your podcast to the next level! Our team is always looking for ways to support exactly that, so we’re thrilled to kick off 2020 with our Podchaser partnership!
