This week, Hussein talks to Alison Rumfitt, author of "Tell Me I'm Worthless" and "BRAINWYRMS", about Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi. We talk about what happened in the film that seemingly got so many people mad, from stan accounts to online fascists, as well as how the response to the film spooked Disney into commissioning a load of very bad spin-off shows, rendering Star Wars into little more but pure content to passively watch on your laptop. Was the franchise destroyed by too many posts? That would be a fairly simplistic reading, sure. But it's not entirely untrue....
