This is a part-time endeavor and there is a LONG line of people who wish to be on the program. Don’t forget to join us for the next episode of My Star Wars Story, which will feature part one of David W. Collins's Star Wars Story. I’d also like to take a moment to mention that I don’t plan on attempting to monetize My Star Wars Story, but If you’d like to contribute to a similar but much bigger operation—I say similar because we both have a mission of the preservation of Star Wars history—please give whatever you can to Rancho Obi-Wan. Go to ranchoobiwan.org and give what you can. Remember, it is tax deductible. Thank you for listening to My Star Wars Story and thank you for being a part of Generation Star Wars. /episode/index/show/mystarwarsstory/id/5227910
