GXW - Force Friday!

GXW - Force Friday!

Author: Generation X-Wing September 4, 2015 Duration: 1:33:39

Anil and Rob brave the line at Toys R Us in Coquitlam, BC (just outside Vancouver). We meet so many great people. From Mexico to Star Wars: Episode 3 line up from 10 years ago to other podcasts and websites to the 501st!

Then the doors open....

It was a memorable night. Were we lucky or were we walking away empty handed or worse...with a GREEDO?

Did you have better luck on Force Friday?

Join hosts Anil Sharma, Josh Whittall, and Rob Williams for a conversation that feels like hanging out with friends who share your shelves of old action figures and dog-eared comics. The Generation X-Wing Podcast operates from a simple, joyful premise: our nostalgia is worth examining, not just revisiting. While rooted firmly in the expansive universe of Star Wars and proudly part of the Star Wars Commonwealth Network, this podcast deliberately wid its lens. Each episode is a deep, often humorous dive into the entire tapestry of pop culture that shaped a generation. You’ll hear passionate discussions dissecting new films and classic TV shows, the thrill of the hunt in toy collecting, and the unique energy of fan conventions. It’s a modern look at a retro lifestyle, where an analysis of a latest blockbuster can effortlessly pivot into a fond remembrance of a Saturday morning cartoon. The charm of this podcast lies in its eclectic range and the hosts’ genuine camaraderie. They don’t just review media; they explore how the comics, movies, and collectibles of the past continue to inform and entertain us today. For anyone who finds equal excitement in a new Star Wars trailer and the discovery of a vintage toy at a flea market, Generation X-Wing offers that perfect blend of thoughtful critique and celebratory fandom. Tune in for a regular dose of insightful, laughter-filled conversation that celebrates where our pop culture obsessions began and where they’re taking us next.
