About this episode

The episode discusses the changes happening at Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge with guest Todd Martens from the LA Times.

Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge is going through some, uh, changes. It’s not aging—it’s de-aging. Part of the land is going back in time, while part of the land is staying the same. This is normal stuff for a massive, multi-million-dollar IP-based theme park land entering its seventh year on planet Earth. It’s nothing to worry about. Todd Martens (LA Times) is here to answer any of the tough questions we have about the process!
