Rise of the Podcast goes live from Excalibur Con! Joel from Regal Rebel joins us to talk about jumping headfirst into 3D printing massive Star Wars droids, including a 2,000-hour Droideka build, his B2 Super Battle Droid, and how the hobby turned into something much bigger. Plus, Chopper causes convention chaos, we talk Star Wars, and things go predictably off the rails. We also reminisce about our favorite Star Wars experiences, ramble on with stories of the good ol' days, nerd out about current and upcoming Star Wars shows, books, and games, and talk a little bit about life. Thank you so much for supporting our channel! We love interacting with all of you! We look forward to talking with you guys every week about Star Wars, gaming, 3D printing, pop culture, movies, and everything else!
