Guests
Notes
- Starts with C-3PO trying to wipe the nervous expression off his face, and ends with Tallie telling the fighters to protect the bombers.
Podcast
- "Dot fun" is a real thing.
- Is this the moment that C-3PO has had enough of the abuse? When's he gonna snap?
- BB-8's technique for fixing the ship and his multi-articulated spindly arm.
- It's his version of slapping the Millennium Falcon's dashboard. Referenced: V.I.N.CENT. from The Black Hole (1979), a "reverse turtle" (Poofin' it).
- Poe blows something up and then flies through the explosion with no ill effects.
- Poe's skidding U-turn. It would be impossible in either an atmosphere or in space.
- Maybe the dreadnought has its own gravity? That still wouldn't help explain the skidding turn.
Meta Minute
- 23:43 podcast episode length.
Quotes
- Josh: (in rough New York accent) Brooklyn group, checkin' in!
- Josh: I would disqualify a neckless poof.
