About this episode

The episode discusses the future of Lucasfilm, the implications of Iron Lung's success, and the rise of YouTube as a dominant entertainment platform.

Henry San Miguel, Emily Mata & Shanclen are joined by Trent Tucker from Geek Off The Street for this month's Issues of the Day episode. These are the issues discussed: What do we hope to see from the new creative leadership at Lucasfilm? Not just Star Wars, everything Lucasfilm will produce moving forward? Does the success of Iron Lung signal a new way to break into Hollywood? Or is it something that is still for a select few with a huge online following? Bonus issue: Now that YouTube has officially (and financially) surpassed Netflix as the biggest entertainment platform, what does that mean for entertainment & content creators?
