Wherein Andy and Justice welcome Dr. Jackielee Derks, longtime friend and colleague, to a remix of Helen Oyeyemi's Mr. Fox and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Why do authors and production companies keep retelling the same stories? Is it to address contemporary issues or to enrich the almighty corporation? Topics range from J. J. Abrams' time-honored practice of mere enhancement to Oyeyemi's impressive confrontation of the long history of writing violence onto women. How does Rey fit into the Star Wars retelling? Given Abrams' history, in the worst way possible.
