Alternate title: waiting for Chewie.

Han Solo and Chewbacca race back to Chewie’s home so he can celebrate Wookie Christmas, while a bunch of other random crap happens. Meanwhile, Michael appreciates The Mandalorian’s willingness to canonize some of this nonsense, Peter admits he was beginning to dread the experience before we actually watched it, and both hosts struggle to find words to describe this thing other than “insane,” “weird,” and “bizarre.”

Also included: uncomfortably personal threats of violence by the Empire, the origin of Youtube Poop, the VR headset sequence is somehow even weirder than we expected.

Dragon Ball Z Part 15 will release January 15th. What a coincidence.

Hmm, there are icebergs approaching our capital city? Even if it weren’t unseasonably warm, that would be suspicious.

Now that a rival has been introduced, things start to pick up. Meanwhile, Michael gets tired of a bunch of incompetent assassins, Peter changes his opinion about the show (or perhaps more accurately, is interested enough to actually form one), and both hosts cement their opinions on whether or not Zoids are “alive.”

Also included: Raven’s perfect voice, the single strategies of both the Republic and the Empire, the re-re-appearances of Dr. D.
