About Who Shot First? A Star Wars Controversy Podcast
A podcast about all of the different Controversies in Star Wars. Now in one Place! Alex does the research and surprises Ethan with the knowledge. Remember, remain respectful and listen to both sides. We are not here to change your mind, we are here to humanize both sides of the argument and hopefully we can see the value in both sides. Got any new info or ideas? Let us know! @whoshot1swpod and whoshotfirstswpod@gmail.com
I am back with a new episode and will be starting my summer series about George Lucas. This will be a 4 part series.
Part 1: Ownership
Part 2: The Plan
Part 3: Marcia Lucas
Part 4: Representation
