Barry Lenihan, RTE reporter David Quinn, Columnist with the Sunday Independent

You may be familiar with how Rogue One ends. But do you know how ANDOR began? The critically acclaimed Star Wars series almost didn't happen. The goal of ANDOR was to detail Cassian Andor's journey from a child of war to a self-focused mercenary to a selfless hero of the early rebellion. And like the rebels taking down the Death Star, the story behind bringing this one-in-a-million drama to the small screen is just as wild, and just as compelling. Join host David Quinn as he explores the making of the monumental first season, and how showrunner Tony Gilroy transformed it into one of the greatest Star Wars stories ever told. This is, in the words of Gilroy, “always protein, never icing.” And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production! *This episode focuses on the events leading up to the series' release in 2022, and does not contain any spoilers from seasons one and two.

He reflects on the spiritual moments that guided the investigation, calling them nothing short of divine intervention. Aeman opens up about the pain and trauma of his upbringing, the influences that shaped his descent into violence, and the regret he carries every day. Together, they discuss the human side of tragedy, how community, media, and personal choices intertwine to create paths that sometimes end in darkness, and how, even then, healing and understanding are still possible.

"We can't keep Star Wars items on the shelf.” Between 1978 and 1980, the marketing blitz of Star Wars toys and memorabilia was unlike anything previously experienced by both consumers and retailers. From Darth Vader figures, to TIE Fighters and X-Wings, to the massive Death Star Space Station, many of the exciting toys Kenner released during the holiday season sold out as quickly as they arrived. Longtime collector and writer Ron Salvatore reflected on Kenner's impact on the holidays, in an article for the Star Wars Collectors Archive site, Join host David Quinn for a conversation with Ron about this must-read Christmas article. And hear accounts and news stories that offer a peek into the frenzied retail world during that time, in which Star Wars toys topped wishlists across the country and around the world.

Continuing the momentum of a powerhouse franchise like Star Wars or Marvel is not easy. In October of 2023, Disney spoke with The Hollywood Reporter, acknowledging the issues the company faced with its Marvel films and series, and what it planned to do to correct them to get Marvel back on track. And while Star Wars fans have wished for something similar - more direct communication and a clearer road map of the future - Disney and Lucasfilm have been largely silent. Instead, The Hollywood Reporter's James Hibberd has taken that audit into his own hands. This month, he wrote an article assessing the health of the franchise according to the performance of its films, series, merchandise and experiences. And his findings may surprise you. In it, Hibberd asks a key question that many want to know: Is Disney bad at Star Wars? Join host David Quinn for an in-depth look at Hibberd's article, going beyond the author's takes and providing the insight a longtime Star Wars fan and collector can offer. How did the films and series actually perform with audiences and at the box office? Has the company delivered on its initial plans and promises? Is Star Wars heading in the right direction? Is the fanbase losing hope? 
And what does all of this mean for fans and collectors? This is the analysis you need, about the franchise you love. And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!

The Star Wars Collectors Archive changed the collecting world forever. The essential website, created by Gus Lopez in 1994, showcased the prototypes and production pieces from the Kenner Star Wars toy line, as well as memorabilia from the global release of the original trilogy. But more importantly, its contributors and authors helped to inform and educate collectors on the significance of each treasured item, the pre-production process of a collectible, and the histories of many different areas of the hobby. Join host David Quinn for a special look at how the Archive impacted collectors around the world over the past three decades. And hear the stories about this monumental resource from the creators, contributors and collectors, in their own words. Featuring funny and heartfelt reflections from Gus Lopez, Todd Chamberlain, Stephen Danley, Stef Faucourt, Tyler Fedigan, Chris Georgoulias, Yehuda Kay, Isaac Lew, Michael Lonergan, Jonathan McElwain, Jon Peck, Ron Salvatore, David Tree, and John Wooten. This is The Archive at 30.
