Captains’ Logs and Lightsabers Episode 7 is finally here after an extra week due to the Easter holiday! This extra-length episode finds Jonathan and Chris catching up on the massive amounts of news from First Contact Day 2021, the Obi-Wan Series cast announcement, the Bad Batch Trailer, and wait for it…a surprise teaser that came straight from Disney Parks!The feature discussion for this episode is the final in their trilogy of the influences of Star Wars on Trek in the 1970s and beyond. For this episode, the boys talk about the real moneymaker when it comes to both Star Trek and Star Wars…the toys! They discuss the history of how Kenner obtained the Star Wars license and how the company knocked it out of the park with their figures, vehicles, and more! The conversation then shifts to the more rocky history and questionable decisions made by the many Star Trek toy licensees. Towards the end of the feature discussion, Chris and Jonathan reminisce about missing a local Pittsburgh-area department store that is now defunct.Hills Department Store Christmas Toys Commercials - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiNa1DDxWAQMore YouTube Search Results https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=hills+is+where+the+toys+are+commercialEat N Park Christmas Tree Commercial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-W2IP-BTu30Contact the Show:Twitter - @LogsAndLightPodFacebook - www.facebook.com/LogsAndLightsabersPodInstagram - @logsandlightsaberspodEmail: [email protected]Contact the Hosts:Jonathan - justadisneygeek on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTubeChris - @chrisstough1 or @PghTrekChat on Twitter, Pittsburgh's Trek Chat on YouTube Email [email protected]Connect with Geek News NowTwitter - @GNN_HomeFacebook - Geek News NowWebsite - www.geeknewsnow.netTheme Music composed by Chip Craymer.
