Black Series Cantina

With all the big reveals out of the way for the year, we thought we'd have a special guest on who's not so much specifically about toys, but Star Wars in general. Author of "Why We Love Star Wars" and host of various poscasts, Ken joins us today to talk about the current state of Star Wars and how it can relate to the toy community.
