Pop culture writer Alex Kane joins us to discuss the development and legacy of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic!

Alex Kane has written for Rolling Stone, Variety, Polygon, StarWars.com and more, but for his first book, he's taken a deep dive into the making of one of the most beloved Star Wars video games of all time, Knights of the Old Republic.

This episode, Alex joins us to talk about how KOTOR bridged the gap between film and tabletop role-playing games; the influence of KOTOR on contemporary Star Wars storytelling; and how the characters and settings of KOTOR could be brought to the big screen!

Alex's book, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, is available now through Boss Fight Books.
