Think again.  It’s WITB: episode 6.  Background: due to popular demand, a new ‘Star Wars’ film was made and the studio that made it clubbed together enough money to get it released in cinemas (!) and advertise it globally.  The guys’ love of Star Wars knows no equal so what will they make of this controversial new chapter?  If you don’t listen to this podcast immediately Rian Johnson will come round your house and ruin your childhood.
