Takes us from the Jawas picking out who will be sold at the market and ends with the introduction of Luke Skywalker himself.
Introduction of Luke Skywalker (we see him and hear his name multiple times).
Return of Pete the Jawa. He is assigned R2-D2.

The droids are sold at a market.
What's the deal with the giant gas pump looking droid? There is a lot of variety of droids and other things on offer.
Droids without action figures and Early Bird Certificate package (film came out in May 1977, but toys were not available until early the next year).
The height of Jawas - including one very tall Jawa who may be discriminated against for being so tall (i.e. Jawas may be 'heightist').

10:28 podcast episode length.
Cold-open: Pete's excited about this one (turns out to be due to the return of 'Pete the Jawa' - see above).
Movie toy merchandising and spoilers nowadays (as opposed to 1977).
Misplaced toy merchandising with the Prequels.
Star Wars drinking games in college.
Tricia has appeared in Star Wars fan films - various roles in the “I.M.P.S. The Relentless” web-series, Imperial military personnel stories. Tricia once passed out while filming and wearing the Stormtrooper armor; she was awakened by multiple Stormtroopers (fellow actors) checking that she was alright.
