    Raising a First-Generation Star Wars Fan: A Conversation With My Mom

    What was it like raising a young boy when Star Wars burst into the world in 1977? Look no further than today’s holiday episode, where I sit down with my mother, and we take a walk down memory lane together. From that very first opening crawl to being pulled out of school to see Return of the Jedi on opening Friday to all the grace notes: the action-figure certificate under the Christmas tree, boxes of Topps trading cards, the vinyl LP spinning endlessly, and my unwavering insistence on wearing a Star Wars T-shirt for school picture day. To my mother, with love. And yes—I forgive you for vacuuming up my original Luke Skywalker lightsaber.

    Con Men Vol 2 w/Mike & Tristin | Space Con 2025

    Boys will be Boys—especially on the convention floor of Space Con! On this episode, Mike Kennedy and Tristin Mosely take Twin Suns behind the scenes of one of the most talent-packed, flirt-fueled conventions of 2025. It’s all about convention crushes: Mike’s doing his best not to drop the “L” word. And Tristin, he’s changing his profile pic—again. Sparks fly with Chloe Bennet signing Mike’s photo, “obsessed with us,” and Natasha Liu Bordizzo totally nailing the prom-hug pic with Tristin. And then there’s Ivana Sakhno, with eyes that could get you in trouble… As I said before, “Boys will be boys." And as Mike said to Space Con, “Better to lock the f*** in.”
