You know what’s awesome? Star Wars. You know what else is awesome? Disney movies from our childhood. Now, what if I told you that there are some pretty awesome people out there who have combined these two into entities to create a very entertaining spoof called… wait for it… Star Wars the Musical.

Yes, it does exist! A couple of years ago the Space Pirate Queen and I met George Shaw, a very talented composer who has made this childhood dream mashup come to life.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Shaw a couple of years ago to promote the first episode of Star Wars the Musical and now padawans he needs our help to fund the sequel The Empire’s New Groove.

Something I have tried to keep hidden about myself is that I am a closet romantic. Deep down underneath all of my bourbon swigging swagger and penchant for post-apocalyptic thrillers is a girl who loves a good romance. As much as I try to hide that part of myself it’s there and today is no exception. The fanfiction I have chosen for today is a very sweet once shot of the first kiss between Emma and Neal from Once Upon a Time. 

So. Freaking. Cute. Sigh…..

I am, and always shall be, Team Neal. My apologies to the Hook fangirls out there, but I always thought Neal was superior. This has nothing to do with the fact that the actor Michael Raymond-James can do a Cajon accent and I kind of pretend that he can be Gambit… hehe… wait… what was I talking about? Oh yes, the fanfiction. This week’s Awesome Fanfic Monday goes to Counting the Stars by mamaXunicorn of Fanfiction.net.

We bring you a special Travelcast edition of the podcast, which is mainly Gizzy B and the Space Pirate Queen sitting in Carthay Circle inside California Disney getting buzzed off Manhattans. Yes, kids, you can get drunk at Disneyland. We talk San Diego Comic-con and the latest Batman Vs. Superman trailer.
