Ben of Star Wars Timeline looks at different geek culture perspectives and changing worlds

In this episode, we hear from Ben of the Star Wars Timeline YouTube channel and Facebook group.

We learn more about Ben's loves within geek culture, not just star wars but gaming and the wider world of movies. We also take a look into how things changed for him, immigrating to the United States from a young age and experiencing geek culture in a completely new way. At a young age when geek culture is full of amazing things, travelling from a space where world culture trickles through in peculiar ways, to a world of comic cons and arcades.
We also take a dive into the history of culture, movies and geekdom in general. With a particular look at the experience of those growing up in the Soviet era and the former USSR. How did culture divide, and how were the outlooks and perceptions different.
Strap in as Ben takes us through a fascinating journey of geek culture history.
