Brews and Blasters 210: What John Williams’ Mind Sounds Like

by Brews and Blasters
by Brews and Blasters

Before we Escape from the Death Star, we need to ask: where was Luke’s Lightsaber in the stormtrooper disguise? And before we do that, we wonder about John WIlliams’ mind, and hear his new Galaxy’s Edge music and it changes us into weeping barbarians.

We only have the soundtracks, but can you imagine what it’s like to be inside of John Williams’ mind, inside the head of the man who creates those soundtracks?! Epic-ness occurring in every moment. Plus, one of the weirdest NeedEm GotEms ever and the best voicemail you’ve ever heard on a podcast, ever. Get your ponchos and get ready to party at Chris and Joe’s! The Star Wars party starts NOW! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

Support These Things, Too

Born from the discussions between two friends at a local pub in the historic town of Salem, Massachusetts, Brews and Blasters is your chance to kick back, relax and then enjoy everything about that galaxy far, far away. Your hosts, Chris Salton (founder, The Collectors Hutt) as well as Joe Tavano (founder and editor in chief, RetroZap!) sit down every week to do what would be doing anyway–talk about all things Star Wars, tell some stories, and of course, have a good time. Join Joe and Chris as they share their love for Star Wars, the most obscure Star Wars characters, Boston’s North Shore, 1980s pop culture and delicious food, and occasionally talk to fascinating people–and friends, like an anthropomorphic packet of crystallized lime.
