My fandom life is pretty much a big recursive loop: every summer, without fail, I come back to Star Wars.

I could go on about how much and how profoundly I love it, even when I find myself in agreement with Patton Oswalt that George Lucas should be killed at midnight with a shovel, and even when I find myself frustrated by its shortcomings (man, don't even get me started on the extended universe). But it's incredibly hot and humid, and I've walked like a zillion miles today, so as much as I want to ramble about it forever, I'm rationing my energy so I'll cut to the point.

I have the Star Wars radio dramas. The ones that aired on NPR in the 80s, and that have John Lithgow as Yoda.

They are hilarious and amazing and I'm going to be posting episode summaries starting tonight. BECAUSE THE SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER HAS TO COME FROM SOMEWHERE AND IT MIGHT AS WELL BE A LOLZY CLASSIC AMIRITE?

lol rebel scum, oh george lucas no, jedi order 4 life
