Episode 34: How We Fell in Love with Star Wars and More
On this episode of the Nola Nerd Couple podcast, we talk about what drew us into loving Star Wars. Mine is a typical boy meets movie story, while Mrs. Nola Couple’s origin story is a little more complicated. We also discuss how we both got into autograph collecting and the role Star Wars played in that. We discuss our Star Wars Painting with a Twist (pictures in show notes). Finally, in our New Orleans section, we promote two of the best festivals in the area.
I’m a husband to a woman who is nerdier than I am, and a father to a near perfect child. I am one of the main authors for this website, plus I handle most of the technical aspects (web design, editing podcasts, and videos, etc.) During the day, I’m a Computer Science and African American Studies Teacher. Most of my free time I’m listening to music or podcasts and watching soccer. I love Star Wars and Star Trek equally. I’m a horrible gamer yet I game.

You definitely had a better painting teacher than I did. We didn’t draw anything, did the blue line last, and he didn’t even know what we were painting because he knew nothing about Star Wars!
Ours was excellent. He taught us how to space out everything to make it look decent. And he was aware of the reddit post about Jar Jar being a Sith Lord!
