Meta Minute
- 33:29 podcast episode length.
- 8-DAY-GREEDO call from Jason in Denver. Imitating Lando's pronunciation of "too close".
- According to Wookieepedia, the Cloud car was an atmospheric vehicle, so they do not count as spaceships.
- When they brought up the number of actors to play Wedge on the big screen before, they determined there were a total of three, if you count Fake Wedge.
- The first time that the Falcon's headlights went on, the hosts didn't bring it up.
- This is the minute the hosts will reference when it is later revealed that the Falcon has a new radar dish in TFA.
Quotes
