Welcome to the first ForceCast.Net Weekly Listener Mailbag! Here are a few stories and contributions from the ForceCast listening audience.

Hey Jason & Jimmy,

Check out my costume pics from this past weekend!

I think my girlfriend Leia is pretty cute ;) but I'm a little short for a Vader! :)

Cheers,

Faithful ForceCast listener,

Hi Jimmy and Jason,

Happy Halloween!

Clearly you can see my girl Sammy makes a better Jabba than she does a Princess. She even has the attitude! After this picture she grabbed Princess Leia by the chain and swung her around!

Yours in the Force,

Jenny

Hey Jimmy and Jason I just wanted to say thanks for bring back out my inner fan boy. I've been a long time fan of Star Wars since I first saw ROTJ in theaters as a boy. I can still remember playing with (& destroying) my old action figures. Well, thankfully my mother hangs on to everything and about 6 years ago I gave them to my son and he has been addicted to the Wars ever since and has been my only source of interaction for the Wars until I found the ForceCast a few months back. I instantly purchased the app and I've been catching up with the show ever since.It was great to enjoy the anticipation of the Blu Ray release with all of you and the conversations about the bonus material.

I decided to make my son and myself Jawa costumes for Halloween this year and it was great seeing the reaction of people when they saw my 9 year old and his 37 year old dad. We also got our picture on the official Star Wars blog, so freaking cool for me and my son.

Again guys thanks for all you do for the community and giving older guys like me a place to geek out.
Here is the link to our "Jawa Family" pic..

Thanks

Hello!

Love the Podcast! I met Tim Rose, he is most known for Admiral Ackbar, at a SciFi Convention called Starfest that happens in Colorado every year. He was in Colorado in 2009 and I now have a signed photo and a signed collectors Ackbar doll. I am at attaching a picture that I have from meeting him, I thought that you might enjoy!

Thanks!

Michelle
