Mark Hamill voices Luke himself, the rest are mostly replacements. The guy who plays Han Solo sounds like a ProZD character.

Very cozy and you get tons of “slice of life” Mark Hamill being a naïve teenage Luke goofing off with his friends. It’s clearly before our favorite Maury moment, so you get a little bit of disconcerting Luke/Leia romance, but she sounds so different you can just pretend she’s an entirely different person.

Also - this was produced by NPR. Fucking awesome, we need to throw more money at them.

I haven't heard it since it aired. I remember enjoying it. My parents thought it was the greatest because they grew up with radio plays.
