Podcast
- Pete's stupid joke from yesterday. Referenced: Peter Gabriel from the band Genesis.
- Other times that Obi-Wan skulks around. Parallel to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
- Obi-Wan is like a UN weapons inspector—shouldn't he be reporting this? Or taking any action at all?
- Ewan McGregor is normally a bright spot in these movies.
- We're not looking forward to the upcoming droid factory scene.
- It's been ten years and Nute Gunray is still walking around talking about treaties.
- Mentioned: Snow White.
- Nute Gunray is really into heads and shows it how he decorates his office. Using human body parts as office supplies.
- Or he's just really into phrenology.
- Mentioned: Snow White.
- Count Dooku and Obi-Wan don't seem to sense each other.
- Other times that Force users feel each other's presence.
- Nobody supects Palpatine.
- Using the WiFi signal as an analogy. Maybe you need to be actively using the Force to show up each other's radar.

- Although now legends, an artificial heart was mentioned in West End Games' Cracken's Rebel Field Guide sourcebook.
Quotes
- Pete: ...to be fair, this is the second secret army [Obi-Wan has] found today...
- Alex and then Hal: <impressions of various emotionally needy battle droids>.
- Hal: "I won't believe she's dead until you bring me either an organ or an entire body part—let's go with head..." Alex: Yeah head is better than heart because [...] you'd totally be able to see her...bored stiff face.
- Pete: I don't know the terminology of phrenology. Hal: Nobody does. Not even phrenologists.
- Pete: You have a Force request from "D. Vader". Alex: He'd like to add you to his Force network. Hal: <Skype ringtone noises>
