LeVar Burton on Aftermath (1997) + Peter Fletzer on Star Wars: A New Hope Special Edition

This episode reaches back into the archives of your 50,000‑watt New York radio days in 1997, bringing forward a resonant conversation with LeVar Burton whern he had just released Aftermath, a speculative, cautionary tale about a near‑future America fractured by racial conflict. The discussion explores the novel’s characters, its themes of redemption and hope, and Burton’s reflections on the 20th anniversary of Roots—a role and cultural moment that continued to shape him two decades later.

Tony Tellado was also joined by Peter Fletzer, then a writer for Star Wars Galaxy magazine and now the host of the Around the Galaxy podcast. Together, you revisit the excitement, controversy, and technical wizardry surrounding the 1997 Special Edition release of Star Wars: A New Hope.

This episode blends literary sci‑fi, cultural history, and fandom in a way that feels both nostalgic and surprisingly current.
