    Not very long ago in pretty much the same galaxy... DON'T SHOOT THE PODCAST STAR WARS Episode IX: A Life Day Special Tim and Josh had totally meant to do a Christmas style holiday special but then they both watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens and decided that all these two nerds wanted to do was talk about Star Wars.  The result was a transformation of their humble improvised time-travel narrative comedy podcast into a shameless Star Wars fan cast.  What better way to celebrate the grand resurgence of the beloved franchise then to celebrate a holiday featured in the franchise's most IMFAMOUS spin-off. That's right its Wookie Life Day!   And oh yeah, this is a SPOILER HEAVY episode so maybe wait until after you've seen the new Star Wars to listen.  (As always you can find more episodes of DStP athttp://dontshootthepodcast.libsyn.com/ or download the episode on Itunes where you can rate and review it AND for more DStP likeusonfacebook.com/dontshootthepodcast and follow us on twitter @dsthepodcast)
