Comments
This episode was a little awkward for me. I had decided on topics for the 2004 broadcast year a few months before I ended up being tapped to write Equals and Opposites for Dark Horse's Star Wars Tales #21. Now, here I was, an Official Continuity writer (albeit a one time thing as a freelancer), and I was putting forth my opinions on the notions of bad Official writers and fans who might deserve to cross the same line I just had. It was odd, but the episode turned out well, thanks in no small part to the great input of the show's two guests, The Logan Chronicles' Michael Sheridan and longtime fan film community member Teague "Fig" Chrystie.

The episode also allowed me to vent about how some fans (and some people in "officialdom") reacted to the announcement of my writing for Tales, while also allowing me to promote two serialized episodes of my newest (and possibly last) audio drama, Nothing Changes. The episode was also part of ChronoRadio's biggest single release day, August 1, 2004, when I also released three new Interview Editions (Alan Dean Foster, Rich Handley, and the first "Listener Q&A" with me). Not a bad way to round off a big Star Wars Fanworks summer.
