The ladies are back! They talk about about yet another Harrison Ford WW2 film, Hanover Street (1979). But first the ladies talk about what they've been up to during their hiatus and pre-recorded episodes. Topics include Lauren's new column with ForcesOfGeek.com, Rachel's Broadway adventures, NY Comic Con, Carrie Fisher, the beard, Doctor Who and the pressure of actors replacing an icon role or actor - i.e. Han Solo. They also chat about celebrity, audience expectations, and our favorite actor's experiences with fame. We end the show by announcing the winner of our Spring Contest, as well as the great prize(s) you could win in our Summer Contest. Check us out at www.thefordcastpodcast.com (Along with pictures of the prizes for our summer contest and the full list of sponsors) Please rate and review the podcast on iTunes, or if you don’t have iTunes, you can leave a review at Stitcher.com.
