And we got a couple more of those later on. Stay tuned.

Again,
we're not like the most knowledgeable podcast out there.
We don't have all the answers or,
you know,
maybe not the most craziest podcast entertaining,
but we fucking,
we just sniff stuff out really quick.
And a lot of this stuff,
I give us,
we're good detectives.
Yeah.
We sniffed out Mephisto
seven years ago.
He's coming. We're telling you. He's coming.
We didn't talk
about that on the Marvel thing, but
Sacha Baron Cohen being
Mephisto feels like a Sacha Baron Cohen
prank. It doesn't feel like it's actually going to happen.
I'm sniffing that out as well.
Before we
get into this whole podcast, let me talk to the podcast listeners for a sec.
The people on YouTube, we appreciate you.
The people on the podcast, we appreciate you.
But the podcast listeners, if you're not subscribed to the YouTube, we got tons more content that you're missing out on.
We just put up reviews for Black Adam, Werewolf by Night.
We've got the reaction to the guardians holiday special trailer the ant-man
and the wasp quantumania trailer and even a breaking news report on james gunn becoming
the head of dc so if you want to hear our thoughts on all of that stuff it's over at the youtube
channel make sure you subscribe i can put all of that stuff together as like one big podcast next
week if you guys want so tweet me if you would like me to do that if not
though it's available first on the on the youtube channel so make sure you go subscribe that helps
us out yeah i've had a few people who like i can tell her diehard basement people who basement boys
and girls who i've had interactions we're talking all different stuff i see in the dm history and
they're like oh have you have you recapped she-hulk did you do where are you going to do
werewolf by night and i'm like guys we did that shit like a while ago with She-Hulk.
And obviously, Werewolf by Night is up now too.
So there's a lot of stuff on the YouTube that sometimes we can't put on the podcast.
Because Barstool, the back end has changed.
We can't just upload everything we want anymore.
So some of that stuff goes on the YouTube.
And we grow the YouTube.
So kind of two birds, one stone.
And it keeps the basement lights on.
So help us keep the basement lights on.
Subscribe.
Give thumbs up even when you don't want to give thumbs up five star reviews, whatever you could do to help the basement boys eat.
All right, now let's get into Andor. We've got a lot to talk about.
This is episode eight. The title was Narkeena five.
Immediately speaking of sniffing things out,
I said that's got to be the prison where he's kept right. Narkeena five.
Of course it was and cassian is under the name
keith grigo or gergo or something like that it reminded me of grief carga and i was like oh my
god this is like too many keith grief whatever good star wars name it was good yes we're back
to good star wars yeah he's here with that one yeah he's brought to a transport by shore troopers
who i love i think I mentioned that last week.
One of my favorite stormtrooper variants when they brought in Rogue One, I was like, holy shit.
They really nailed the stormtrooper variants in Rogue One from the death troopers in the beginning, the big black tall ones to the shore troopers who have like cargo pants and they could walk in the water and everything in their tent.
I love both.
Serial, our boy Serial, is grabbed. He's brought before Dedra. So we finally get the meeting of
these two psychopaths who are both like so out for Cassian, so out for whatever's really best
in the Empire's way, but not with the Empire's permission. They're like, I'm going to win this
war on my own and then I'll tell the Empire about it afterwards. She allows him to read Blevins' report because he's like, I didn't even get to read that.
And then she gives him a report on rebel activity, on Aldani, Cassian they talk about, and she wants to know who the Axis is.
The Axis, which is Luthen.
That's like the other player in all of this.
A very spy type thing.
Like they're giving code names to people.
They want to know who the intricate deals they just don't
Know the one player involved I
Liked all of this stuff so
I'll just admit something here that
I think Robbie can back me up on and I
Hate doing stuff like this because I know there's
A lot of people who are not who strive
For something like we have but there's
Times in this job where it's just like man
I'm just so sick of this shit whether you're you know
You just deal with every job is a job.
And I love my job.
Robbie loves his job.
But I think we can all agree.
There's always just kind of bullshit in any job in the world.
Even the best jobs in the world.
They're just bullshit.
You don't want to deal with.
Seeing that cubicle hell and seeing the way those cubes are all lined up.
I was like, you know what?
I'm not complaining.
I get to work from home.
I get to be a relatively, what's the word i'm looking for
i'm there for my kids a lot i'm able to do a lot of stuff a little bit of freedom with my life
because of it and i'm talking about i'm a we said it the other day i'm a grown-up child that's
basically my job is i am a grown-up child i'm talking about star wars and sports all day long
that cubicle hell was fucking disgusting it looked like he was playing games though it looked like i
don't i was like is that part of his work or is he like sneaking away and playing tetris on his little
pong you know like the computer did not look sophisticated in the slightest i don't know if
people have watched severance but it reminded me a lot of that and like what are they even doing on
those computers and speaking of the computers this is one thing that i appreciate about star wars but
also drives me nuts about star wars they have to keep the computers in the same vein that they did basically in
the seventies.
They've,
they've been pretty consistent with that.
It's just so goddamn stupid that this whole entire planet and nothing seems
to make sense.
I don't understand how everything works,
how they're reading stuff,
how they're able to process the info.
I'm like this shit.
Our technology seems light years ahead of them,
but it is just one of those things that kind of was a long time ago.
That's true.
That's and I stand corrected.
The first words I've ever read in all the star Wars franchise kind of just
solved my problems there.
So my what's the word I'm looking for?
My,
my complaint withdrawn with officially withdrawn,
sir.
And seeing those two,
it's hard.
Oh,
and fuck face,
just going at each other.
The absolute pits. Hate them both.
How fucking sweet is it, though,
to be known as the Axis? It's like
you are the center of our
fucking world right now. And listen,
anti-Axis powers. There's nobody,
no podcast on the planet that hates
the Axis powers more than these two guys.
The Basement Boys, fuck the Axis powers.
We're allies. Team allies till the day we die uh team allies and rebellion but axis sweet ass name for our
boy luthan there i was kind of proud of him for that super sweet name and he deserves it he's
putting this shit together he's at the helm of it all he's putting his neck out and with his little
antique shop now do you like this is something i was thinking back when we met him i didn't know if there was like
someone who's king axis someone who's kind of pulling the shots it feels like is he the puppet
master is he really like the number one dude he's the number one of the whole rebellion because i
don't know if there is like a number i feel like it shouldn't have a number one in a rebellion
yeah that's how your rebellions die they take care of that guy. Everything's gonzo.
Exactly.
I feel like there's a number one in each system or maybe in each planet where the rebellion has a presence or something like that.
It feels like there's a network of number ones.
Yes.
Network of number ones.
Prisoners are brought before Imperials's in this moment like three imperial's
they're like you might be wondering why we have no guns and we're standing here before so many
of you prisoners and they hit them with like shock collars like they're like ah like they're
in agony and i noted the imperial's had some wild shoes on i knew there was going to be something
more to the shoes the moon boots boots, the Yeezys.
Probably can't say Yeezys anymore.
The moon boots.
Don't you say that, guys.
Actually, I got a much different vibe.
I thought they were like old school Reebok pumps.
Oh, yeah, with the big tongues.
Yes, the big tongues.
And it seems like something that would be around in the 90s, a little bigger, larger than life kind of vibe to it.
Kind of the Back to the Future shoes. Yes, a little bit of that as well so we're gonna go with the rebot
pumps instead of the y words does that sound like a good plan i didn't think that initially and i
think we forgot to mention this in the black adam review he uses a kanye song in that movie and i
thought when i was sitting there in the theater like oh my god the rock had to be fucking devastated when he when this movie comes out did we mention that robert my boy you mentioned
it and you washed our hands of that as well so we are as clean from yeezy as anyone in the world
right now and we did mention that go back to the tweets go back to the blogs probably mentioned on
some podcasts i have been anti kanye sinceye since... Since he interrupted Taylor?
No, no.
What's the... My twisted dark fantasy?
That's probably the last Kanye I'm going to love.
My beautiful dark fantasy.
My beautiful dark fantasy.
All the new shit.
I hated Yeezus.
I hated all the nonsense.
And I thought everyone that liked the nonsense,
I hated the life of Pablo.
And I don't even know what else he's had.
So, again, anti-A powers and take Kanye West right here.
The basement boys.
That's what we are.
Pro.
Yes.
Pro old school Reebok pumps.
This got me thinking about those seeing those things.
And I'm like,
wait a second.
Narkeena five.
Is this like 95?
We're going to have a nineties planet.
I would have lost my shit.
If we had a nineties plan,
we have the nineties discussion with your brother exclusively on YouTube.
So, again, watch the YouTube.
We have a great 90s conversation with Mike Fox and what it was like growing up as a nerd in the 90s.
Having those Reebok pumps, that was like – that might have been my first pair of, like, big-time expensive shoes.
And the Boy Clement is not a shoe head at the very least.
There's only one pair of shoes I've ever wanted to get that came out as a kid where the air penny twos and it's the black white and
blue ones some company just re-released them and they are coming today they could be in the oh my
god the fedex guy could be in the driveway right now bob and the first thing i'm going to do when
i open them up smell the sneakers i love smelling new pairs of shoes kevin i'm looking at them now
that they're pretty sweet shoes.
They're real sweet shoes. If you look at the logo,
it looks like a one cent. That was
Penny's logo. It was Penny Hardaway, obviously.
It was just an absolute
perfect shoe. It's my favorite as a kid.
If we can maybe, in season
two of Andor, get some guys with
some Air Penny twos. If anyone's listening,
I know a lot of the writers, directors, listen to the podcast.
Get some Air Penny twos on these motherfuckers.
Because when I saw that, I was like, that's an aggressive fucking statement.
These guys wearing these pumps here.
They're telling you they mean business.
And I kind of liked how they were like mean, but they were also like, you wonder why we don't have guns.
This is why.
And like they just had like the upper hand on them.
And even going back to the planet Miami,
as we call it the Miami planet,
I love when the storm troopers were like me,
they weren't just like,
Hey,
over here.
They're like,
Hey motherfucker.
And they're like jamming them.
You heard what I said,
Dick,
get on the ship.
So I like the whole vibe of this.
Like this is war.
This is what war war is more like prison camps and um bullshit charges against people that they
think might be in a rebellion so we're kind of getting our grown-up star wars show espionage
all that kind of stuff and then a little tickle of the nostalgia bone with the old school rebut
pumps love yeah i listen they're listening because they named the whole character after
you they renamed the main character after you next season every character in the galaxy is
going to be wearing these fucking Penny Hardaway shoes.
Yes, exactly.
And they're going to be subtle with the Robbie Fox character.
He's going to be a fox named Bob.
They're going to be like, oh, I see what you guys did there.
He's going to be an alien fox.
The motherfucker said schedule so loud.
And I'm like, all right, this is a thing now.
We're just going to make this a thing.
Every episode.
But I think someone in this episode later on said schedule. I we had a schedule yes oh all right i'm i think we had an american
guy say schedule so we're taking it back is it an imperial i don't remember because i'm ready
to blindly cast my allegiance behind this person but i don't want to be problematic and he supports
the axis powers in conga it wasn't Kanye West who said it,
right?
No,
no,
no,
it wasn't him.
Yeah.
Let's tell the people about game time.

You could go to NHL games.
NHL's back.
NBA's back.
Knicks fans here.
Rangers fans here.
You're a Rangers fan, right?
We are brother.
Like Dolan is our emperor
and we are like united against him even though well you know what's a shame is
yeah i'm not even gonna say dolan made some good moves with the rangers but the rangers have been
on a good trajectory so it's like i think we made fire dolan ranger shirts and then like the rangers
like had their best season forever and it was like oh he fired the coach and like the gm or
whatever and everyone lost their minds and then he all they did was win after that and the knicks
are looking good too it's just he always look look it's not like all the heartbreak and awful stuff
as he as the emperor rules but it's just you know he's lingering above and ready just to make
everything hell so that's why you're not like dolan however we like going to games we like getting there for cheap our boy glennie balls i saw he was at a islanders
rangers game the other day great seats the executive producer of gave us tools so uh and i
think he went to see the sandman last night sandman on tour adam sandler oh did he really and i yeah
did i did i give my review of the adam Sandler tour? I went to like, honestly,
probably like late nineties. Oh, I don't know. 10 out of 10. Incredible. If you could go to
Adams, I don't know how much the show has changed in like 30 years. Lenny told me it was incredible.
First half was standup. Second half was music. And it was like all the Adam Sandler stuff that
he has. And I, this is someone that grew up on his albums, which makes me feel old.
But his first three comedy CDs, that is what twisted my brain into becoming the Barstool Smut Blogger you guys all know.
And kind of like A+.
Absolute just incredible stuff.
So, Glennie going to an Adam Sandler concert.
Like, that is a happy place if we're going to, you know, reference another Adam Sandler movie.
So, Game Time is the place to go.
And again, we had our first confirmation
Someone got Bluey tickets to the Bluey show
Really? With the Game Time code?
I love that
That's amazing
So shout out Game Time
The promo code is BASEMENT
Alright, so now
Dedra goes before Serial
And she tells him pretty strictly
Stop looking for Andor
Thanks for the fucking memories
Get out of
here we don't need your help with this we're gonna take over from here exactly and that this guy
that's like the the last thing he wants to hear in this moment finally he thinks he could be of
use he's like i actually know about what went down like oh my god maybe i could sneak my way
back into the imperials this is what i've always She's like, get the fuck out of here. He's pissed right away.
And this is the moment where you
think, okay, is he getting
pushed away from the Imperials?
Or is this just going to make him more angry
and more sinister?
Yeah, I don't know where
we're going with him. He keeps getting dunked on.
I like that too. Pretty unpredictable.
I love that he keeps getting dunked on. I just want
bad things to happen to him and only him.
But I feel like at some point it's going to come back and it's going to really, really fuck us and everyone we love over.
So that's why I'm – unless – ooh, do we sniff it out and he just says fuck these guys and fuck everything and he becomes like super rebel?
I think that's what my uncle uncle fun as we call him thinks is
gonna happen really i'm pretty sure yeah now and somehow all right the answer to what happens with
fuckface here is is he's gonna meet with uncle harlow who is just lingering this whole time who
the hell is uncle harlow and maybe uncle harlow is going to be the one who decides because uncle
harlow is going to play a big role in this.
And I could see Uncle Harlow being like, yeah, by the way, like, fuck those guys.
I'm fucking with these rebels now.
And he's going to follow him because that's what it is.
And also, again, the Basin boys, we like to puff our chests out and say when we got stuff right.
Even when we didn't technically get it right.
I think we crossed Deidre as being his sister off the list.
Because we would have gone to like, oh, that giant hologram, that's my brother.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't think that's the sister anymore.
But the line about dyeing the hair was, you know, it was sus.
So I don't know.
There's more to her.
I guess.
Okay.
So I guess there's a chance where like in a private moment, she's just like, fuck, I got to get my brother here.
But it would seem kind of weird how she just she seems very like like intent on like rising
the ranks of the empire unless she's like the the best like covert office is that the word covert
i believe so i believe that's a spy word that's a fucking spy word clem one thing for the people
that didn't watch the seahulk recaps on the youtube is we're like we
don't know anything about court court stuff and bob was throwing out the like the fakest worst
words it's not a thing is that part of what did i call i i said like that i was like her final
speech in the court yeah final argument robbie so. So that was an A-plus word.
Good work by you.
Yeah, it was covert shit.
And hey, as we know in the Star Wars world, a certain point of view, maybe she's like, yeah, dude, I grew up with you on that planet.
The fucking Emperor, the Imperials were the good ones.
We're the bad ones.
Everyone we know and love was the bad ones.
I don't know how they're going to fucking spin this shit, but however they may do.
So, yeah i i did think
there is a chance that she could come back to being the sister so i shouldn't say no chance
but now it's going to be a hell of a twist with what three episodes left four episodes we've got
nine ten eleven twelve yeah four four episodes left uh so cassian is brought to prison a very
squid games-esque prison i thought with the
like the speaker with someone talking with you know to the whole room and everything
the all white walls the kind of duties that they had to do and they get rewarded if they're first
or whatever did you get that vibe bob same exact no squid games and it kind of made me want to
watch squid games again i'm like oh yeah that was the most horrifying experience of my life was that's a great show everyone on twitter was like
i can't say why but this show sure is like disturbing i'm like what are they talking about
like dude i studied that and then i saw that the first episode and i was just like you ever see the
meme of mr incredible where it's like his face is dark yeah that was me i was like oh god and i don't know if i've mentioned it
on the podcast before my wife had to go to the doctor because she had like a toothache and they
said she was grinding her teeth they're like do you have any stress in life she's like well i i
watched like two episodes of squid games every night before bed like that's probably it we stopped
watching squid games once the finale was on and everything just got back to normal so folks if
you haven't watched squid games yet check it out it's more fucked up than this shit and it's really good though and this is the same kind of feeling
where it's like sterile it's very well organized and it's like just low-key like a hopeless
situation even though they're trying not to make it seem like it yeah all right so here's the most
shocking moment of the episode for me the head of his shift cassian like work shift in the prison it's a guy
named keno played by andy circus we had no idea he was going to be in this show fucking snoke
himself gollum himself caesar from planet of the apes himself i didn't i was trying to figure out
who it was i was trying to play something like i know i've seen that face before and obviously a lot of the things he does ulysses claw black panther that and that's
where i've seen him actually like his regular face is claw which i i always like claw um
i but i love the foreman i just love the guy i i he just says something about him he was not a good
person i want to hang out with but he just like fucking hell of a performance
reminded me of like one of the characters from squid games too that was like kind of trying to
run shit when they got back to the bunks and everything veteran who's ready who has like we
got to get this shit going here yep a go-getter doesn't want his ass on the line because he's the
head of the shift so he's making sure everyone's on their kind of like pit crew parts that it looked
like they were did they ever say what they were actually doing?
Was that like tie fighter parts? What are they doing?
I'm happy you asked. Cause I was trying to figure it out myself.
It's like the old you learned,
this was always a big thing in school was widgets was always the math
question. It's like, you know,
if you make seven widgets and it takes you an hour,
an hour to make one, how long will it take?
They're just building widgets,
but I got gotta know what those
widgets are for and i thought the same thing i'm like this feels like something from a tie fighter
like to fuel it or to get the laser and i was very like nascar pit crew in the way they were
assembling it though they were like hurry up grab the nozzle drill this in like all right next one yeah all that shit i i i was just i we this is this just
breeds more discussions like the uh what is it clerks with the yeah the death star and there
was innocent people on there the janitor and stuff it's like the people that are building and
basically fueling the empire's reign there are all these like prisoners and shit like that and
they're the ones building the weapons are the ones probably helping build the death star all this kind of shit
out there i i hope we find out by the end of his time in the prison like oh that was the you know
x-wing or the excuse me the tie fighter fueling station factory i don't know what the fuck to call
it but widgets we're just going with widgets for now i don't know i feel like like cassian later on is going to see one of those and know exactly what
to do with it because he used to drill him in prison i like it this is a good call i also put
that one on the list of the basement boys fuck face serial boy going rebellion that's like a
light that's a light prediction a light prediction or are we going to put that in pen
Yeah that's not like we're going to like
You know bet the bank on it
Just sprinkle on it
Yeah we're going to sprinkle it
It's in pencil can be erased if we find it necessary
Also in pen
Anti-axis powers
In sharpie
In sharpie
Alright so the names of all of the inmates that are on his table.
We got Ham.
That was a great one.
Just Ham.
Motherfucker named Ham.
That's the only note I had when I was missing all the names.
I go, I can't believe they named that motherfucker Ham.
We've had all these great names in Star Wars.
Related to Porkins.
There it is.
Taga, which is Star Wars name.
They didn't just change one thing.
And then we get to Olaf, which is kind of like Olaf.
And then we get to Zol, which is Saul with an X.
It's like maybe this show would not have been as deep or as good if they had to actually come up with Star Wars names.
Because I know if me and you were making a Star Wars show,
we would spend days trying to come up with the best names for everyone. Everyone would be like, you know, Bulio Clarina.
Yeah.
Okay.
There's two things that the Star Wars directors and writers of next seasons
and or any future franchise could do as a little nod to the basement boys.
One, come up with that name and make a character with that.
What is it? Bulioio clargaina there is a bulio in uh in the rise of skywalker that's
do i why it came to not was there yeah mark hamill does his voice okay he's an alien he's the one
that goes win the war that yeah that could be like an established name that's like the john
of the challenge and the other thing i was gonna say was scram because i just said scram before i want to hear
someone say scram in season two of android uh they tell them the least productive table will
be disciplined another squid games type thing and then we cut to for the first time this episode
mon mothma and her dickhead husband they're getting some worm drinks kind of gross like
squigs yes squigs they put the thing in there and then
it kind of bubbles up and everything i think mom's like no fucking thank you i'm not gonna be taking
one of those and she goes and talks to take home in secret yet again uh they kind of break away
from the party again the daughter comes up to them the daughter's kind of maybe gonna be the
first one on to them you think sus that is we have some sus shit going on right now.
The daughter is the dad's spy, I think.
That would be interesting.
Yes.
And I could see, I'll say this about Mon Mothma.
And granted, it's during a rebellion after many Bothans died when we meet her.
There's a sadness to her, right?
Oh, yeah.
When we see her in the future or in the past, but it's the future in the movies.
Like a numbness it's as if
her fucking daughter just turned on her and tried to sell her out and sell her whole rebellion and
try to fuck up an entire galaxy so the the daughter maybe number one of this i like that
wasn't even hiding anything there it almost i was like it was almost so transparent i'm like am i
supposed to think that and you're gonna double turn on me and she's gonna like kill the
Shitty dad the dad's definitely
Feeding the daughter information all day from what
We know about their relationship to
Family dynamics the daughter's
Like mom doesn't even spend any time with me
So she's spending all her time with the dad getting
His friggin crazy politics whatever he's
Saying about the dad only watches like certain
Cable news
He doesn't watch the one that
goes down the middle he's he's one order 66 news like channel 66 yeah they also the way they
mentioned the emperor a couple times in this party just like oh well the emperor's plan like is this
and the emperor suggested like that was just cool to hear people talking about him like that
i i agree i i dug it and it wasn't too heavy-handed but it was just like to hear people talking about him like that. I, I agree. I, I dug it and it wasn't too heavy handed,
but it was just like a lot of people were like,
this guy fucking sucks.
It was,
Oh no,
no,
no.
Like hear him out.
He was,
I wanted someone to be like,
that guy's a cunt.
That's how you end up in fucking a Narkin five or whatever.
Yeah.
It's my goal.

it for anyone that's like, do I really want to spend the minute
it's going to take me to fill this out?
Bob Fox, if you win this contest
and you prove you won it, Bob Fox will go and meet
you during the card, before, during, after the card.
If I can get down there that weekend, I'll meet you as well.
But we're going to shout out to the people at Morgan & Morgan.
I can tell you what.
Our boy Keith wouldn't be in Narcan 5 right now if he had Morgan & Morgan protecting him.
He would have been with his lovely girl.
He'd be sharing a shower with the girl.
They'd be having a nice time.
They'd be sprinkling themselves with money.
It would be beautiful.
They'd be living the rest of their life in the Miami planet
And instead he didn't have Morgan and Morgan
And now he's in a war camp
Not fucking good
So shout out Morgan and Morgan
And he's also in this moment
He's in tubes with other prisoners
It's kind of a strange system
Kind of reminded me of the clones
How they had the tubes like that on camino or
whatever and there's prisoners talking to each other in sign language they made a point to show
that and i think that later on we're gonna get some sort of prison riot where the sign language
people are putting that together did you get pick up on those vibes nope didn't know sign language
altogether so they were doing across like a long way it looked like they were
a football field away in tubes but two of them were just signing stuff shit i wish i had seen
that that feels very important um this is the problem with taking notes as you watch the show
too is you do miss out on some of the subtleties of all it this is these are my notes bread floor
hot food in tube toilet in the cell that folds up i I'll tell you, I kind of love it as a parent, though.
The tube food?
Everything about this prison is what I wish I could do to my kids.
Don't say that.
As I hear what just came out of my mouth, I kind of regret it.
However, you have to understand, Bob, I have a four-year-old that wakes up every night at 3 a.m., comes in our room, and then he wakes up for the day at about 5.50 a.m., and then I'm up for the day.
I have a seven, soon-to-be eight-year-old who wakes up every single night, and she says she's sleepwalking into our room, and she sleeps on the recliner in our room instead of getting in bed with us.
I don't know why, but she just likes our recliner, and and she has a bad sleep so then she's cranky all day if i had a floor that was burning hot now granted now i know what the
i thought it was just hot i didn't realize it like basically kills you if i can make a floor
that would be hot but not like hot red lava hot and kill somebody i wish i could do it also being
able to like an 80 degree floor yeah exactly no like no we're saying like 100 like you know it it it eats the
like the floor is lava yeah the floor is lava it heats the tootsies up but i i just i don't know
i like it as a parent where i could just keep my kids in my room when we put sienna to bed she'll
come out 10 different times and think oh dad i need a glass of water dad i need to go to the
bathroom dad i just want to say i love you dad uh the the light is too bright out here it's oh
it's nice.
The first 800 nights of your life. And then it starts getting annoying because then they're tired the next day.
I am very interested.
I might move to an Arkina 5.
That's basically what I'm trying to say.
The cells that they showed I wrote look like the Star Wars hotel rooms.
Oh, yeah.
That's a good call, too.
Which I don't know what that says about
the hotel rooms that the first thing that it reminded me of was the prison in star wars
the food in a tube disgusting that made me want to throw up like i don't even know what
that would taste like do you think it's like just like ground up meat what is it i think it's like
oatmeal or like um almost uh baby food consistency and but they said there's like no flavor but if
you're good you get flavor you know if your team oh yeah yeah you get flavor yeah so i i just
imagine the most bland food you've ever had in your life it's basically liquid water or liquid
water like edible uh solid water and uh the thick water yeah yes and then like but like the flavor
is you know like the stuff you put in
like ramen or something to make it taste like chicken it's nothing okay it's nothing crazy
but it's like yeah you're selling me on it yeah bob we're gonna move bob do you remember what
they fucking wear under queen of five rebot pumps they are the sickest and their outfits
were like their prison outfits were kind of fire i said immediately that's going to be a big group costume for a Star Wars celebration.
If you all just go in those smocks, because that's such an easy costume.
That's that's actually a great point.
I also got Black Mirror vibes from it, too.
It feels like it would have been an episode of Black Mirror.
I think I watched two or three episodes of Black Mirror and I was like, this is too creepy for me.
I have to stop watching.
Great show. I've seen most of it. There's like a
couple episodes that have still evaded me, but great
show. We go back to
Mon and her husband. They just
have a little back and forth with a couple
staring out the window, and they reveal that they
got married at 15.
The way they reveal it is in
such a like, yeah, we were
fucking 15. Mon was a senator at
16, and now look at us.
We're miserable.
Like both of them.
Oh, God.
Just.
I just, this dynamic is so fucked.
But I guess I kind of appreciate that we're getting a little bit back to it.
It made no sense, right?
How they would end up together.
They seem so different.
But just a couple of crazy kids just trying to, you know it in this crazy world of ours we actually go 30 shifts later for
andor so it's like oh shit okay 30 days later and then we go to marva go ahead did you mention the
pord that they talked oh no no i didn't the p the public order resentencing degree about rebel
activity like if you're on a planet that was Standing by the rebels
I think they're just arresting people, right?
That's what it was
And they were all like, they were looking at him like
Is there any word of this?
And they seemed so like excited about it
I was like, I've never heard of that in my life
And I feel like he genuinely has it, right?
Yeah, no, I don't think so
He was faking it
And again, I'm sure Vel and all these other people
That were on that planet with him Know all about it with the Aldahi or whatever.
Aldani.
But yeah, he's like, I don't fucking know.
He will know.
I'm going to say he's going to know a lot about it by the time this series is over.
So we got 30 shifts later for Cassian.
And then we go back to his home planet.
Or not his home planet.
But we go back to the planet that we started on.
And Marva fell, rebelling. And Bix and Brasso, Cassian's planet that we started on and marva fell rebelling and
bix and brasso cassian's friend that we haven't seen in a while go to check on her and unfortunately
vel and sinta were spying on them also confirmed sharing a blanket sharing uh private parts is what
i called it and that's i meant to say that during the episode because you do they do allude to it you're like oh those are the people that were sharing all right all right
uh respect uh bex signals luthan she goes back up to that little antenna thing and she wants
cassian to know that marva fell she's you know ill maybe come back see your mom marva's a
motherfucking soldier put some she is
she's like telling everyone like hey i'm going down fighting like no matter what you say my
death is going to be on the fucking battlefield she's looking for the fucking uh the little
pathway under the hotel to see if the rebellion can get in or out man that is someone who has
that shit in her blood man i love it let it. Let's talk about Wondery now.
Go deeper into the canals of Numenor, the mines of Khazad-dum, and more with the official Lord of the Rings, the Rings of Power podcast.
Host Felicia Day and several special guests provide an inside look at the groundbreaking series and what it took to bring middle earth to life.

showrunners, J.D.
Payne and Patrick McKay,

theirs we're not going to have any rings of power recaps or anything it's not not for me i think clem said you'll get you'll get around to watching
at large actually told me in the office yesterday he liked that better than thrones which i was like
wow i don't know what to say to that but this podcast is where you want to go for the recaps
this is the official one they got the showrunners they're telling you what it's about great stuff
once i said once thrones was over which it just ended on sunday and once everything settles down This is the official one. They got the showrunners. They're telling you what it's about. Great stuff. Once I said,
once Thrones was over,
which it just ended on Sunday.
And once everything settles down at work,
which I think,
I mean,
we just,
this is our fifth podcast of the week.
Meaning you just did.
I know.
Right.
So I'm still not there yet.
Maybe I could probably like Thanksgiving to Christmas time.
I'll go in,
get my ring,
my,
my power rings of power in.
And then I'll just,
this podcast will kind of connect the dots for me.
And also, like, listening to another nerd podcast.
I don't listen to any other nerd podcast that we do.
It's just, again, I kind of like having our own thoughts here.
But since we're not doing Lord of the Rings here,
take what they have, digest it, and say,
hey, maybe this is something we can bring to the basement,
different angles and stuff like that.
So check it out and give us some feedback
and let us know what you think of it.
So Luthen goes off to Segura Milo,
and he goes off in a ship, which is very cool, might I add.
He has like a very flat ship,
and it's very like, it reminds me of a ship
that could probably do the Millennium Falcon thing
where you go sideways or something.
And we get the darkest moment.
I'm going to call it the darkest moment in Andor. And one get the darkest moment i'm gonna call it the
darkest moment in andor and one of the darkest moments all of star wars we see a prisoner suicide
we see a guy just like standing at a cell thinking about it and then we cut to like
screams and you know the alarms are going off and his body's just on there and
he fucking killed himself it's gonna smell so bad like oh he's gonna fucking
smell for weeks it's like holy shit that's a scene out of shawshank yeah that was some dark
shit man this is star wars after dark star wars for adults for real send the kids to bed turn
andor on the motherfuckers shot in the face prisoner suicide the crazy shit the even like
the mass showerings and getting dressed and shit like
that like i was like this is a lot any circus like in the front too like yeah like he's like so like
running the prison this is all like making andor realize okay i have to join the rebellion like we
need a rebellion this is i feel like now most people in life i feel like don't under don't see
like the horrors of man right and that's just
in the real world and i'm and or doesn't really fit into that because he's seen some shit obviously
as a child but if you if you're someone who is just like me just an idiot with his head in the
clouds and then you just get sent to this fucking war camp and your eyes are open like this is
what's really going on in the world yeah that's gonna like turn you into a fucking rebel for lack
of a better term right and let alone someone who had marva raise him who's fucking going out swinging and fucking looking
at little pass under hotels and shit uh our boy andor is going to everything now we said before
this season started i hope it makes me care more about his character in rogue one mission
accomplished through eight episodes.
75% of the way through the season, already mission accomplished.
And we know we're getting two seasons, too.
And I think next season we're probably going to get K2SO,
which is just going to make shit way better.
Awesome.
People on Ferex start getting arrested, and then Bix is called out by Tigo.
She runs.
And then we get another awesome cameo.
We got a cool Andy Serk awesome cameo we got a cool andy circus cameo
in this episode and then saw guerrera uh forrest whitaker shows up and it was a really cool look at
saw guerrera because he's not as unhinged as he was in rogue one yet he's like a little bit more
there and luthan meets with him because he wants him to meet this guy anto krieger krieger or something like that and saw says no and they
kind of fight about it because he's like he is a separatist you know he has that like such a
dramatic delivery which i love and they they have like a very political talk where they're they
brought up like the republican at one point he's a republican i was like what the fuck that's separatists and shit um and he says no
sale today good luck and he fucking sends lutheran away very tense scene but like very good and a
a good look at like not everyone you're gonna go to is gonna immediately just like be in on
your missions and help you out like this is gonna be a battle getting this rebellion up, up and at it. I, I appreciated that. I appreciated what was, Oh God.
What show was it? Book of Boba Fett, where it was like,
where O'Shea Jackson Jr. was like, no man, I'm not messing with those guys.
Like, please. They're really bad people. All right. I got you.
That was Obi-Wan. It was, that was Obi-Wan.
Easily confused. I understand.
Yes, exactly. This show show just think about those shows
and now this show very different right production quality alone is like it it feels so much higher
which which surprises me maybe it's just because they took their time on it we've been here and
they've been filming this for so long like we've made jokes about it like is it ever going to come
out they're filming two seasons or whatever and then the ending of the episode is dedra bringing bix in and she lets her see that that guy pock tortured yeah like let her
see it first on like an old shitty office chair too like that's they took that from like our
planet from like the second yeah yeah through it there and they're like you're gonna have to sit
on that thing it's not like the leia uh or the was it han he's the torture machine he sits on an empire uh so i'm not gonna like
our girl big skin tortured him i don't want that to be the way that uh and or gets found but it
feels like that but they're gonna have to do a lot of detective work because he bounced all over
the fucking place but it feels like our boy andrew is gonna be getting a visit by like the finale
from uh deidre here and whether or not we find out it's a sister,
which we're still not out on just putting that for,
for the record books there.
The,
the basic boys are still,
our hand is still on like the chess piece.
It's like,
it could be sister.
We're not saying definitely not.
The forest Whitaker thing was a complete shock.
I do like the fact that you're gonna have to work for him.
And like,
I want when he finally decides to join the feel like a moment,
like,
yes,
we got them, you know, like, and we got, you know, his alliance or whatever.
And then if I'm thinking back to Rogue One, if I'm correct in this, he's no longer part of the Rebellion because he went too extreme.
Yeah.
And he's like doing his own shit, still like fighting the Empire, but on his own.
So are we going to see that in Andor?
Maybe season two, even like him joining and then him like fucking
start a snap next or something then they're like oh my god yeah i hey the shit you see in war man
that'll turn people to go extreme one way or the other in a lot of different ways so i that would
that would be interesting did you also notice the x-wing the x-wing no oh bob fox there was an x-wing
or an x-wing looking maybe like an older version of it but
i feel like when they first land on the planet there's an x-wing oh wait maybe i did like
outside the cave yeah it's like a great maybe i did and i'm not i didn't forgot about it i saw it
and i was like that's an x-wing and then i was like oh wait and i thought you were talking about
on like the um pharixis at bixis planet no like x-wing up bixis planet no and then our boy boy
luthan when he's like let's take the long way that has to be the worst part about being in a
rebellion or like you know trying to stay outside of the uh off the radar of like law enforcement
or in this case like a government everywhere you have to do has to be the long way you can't take
the highway there you have to take the back roads and uh 20 minute trips taking two hours and 45
minutes but it's like you have to do it to kind of uh 20 minute trips taking two hours and 45 minutes
but it's like you have to do it to kind of stay on off the beaten path there so no one sees you
so those are the little things about being in a rebellion i think we should tip our cap to
the people that made this all possible and like the people that you know risked their life and
limb but other than that the people that drove much longer to get there and anton krieger or
anto anto krieger whatever the fuck yeah scary name
scary name it might be kruger yeah exactly maybe that's what it is a freddy kruger thing i feel
like him and fucking uncle harlow are either going to be the same person they're going to be battling
two people i'm just terrified of without knowing a goddamn thing about him i know who the hell
could uncle harlow be someone said is he thrown i don't know how that would even line up i don't know if they wanted to bring thrown into this if they want
to save him for soca i don't know thrown is going to become like the mephisto of star wars but yes
we'll get him in a soca so we'll get i swear to god if i'm gonna go uncle harlow just some bum
just sitting on a bar stool the whole time i'm gonna be so let down i felt about so much in my
head all right that was it for Andor episode eight.
We will be back next week for episode nine,
which is the middle of this arc.
So we probably won't get the prison break.
Maybe we get like the prison break to end next week.
I will say this.
We learned that with the heist thing or whatever you want to call this
stuff in Aldani.
It didn't go according to the way we thought everything was going to go.
So they could remix it on us.
But however, since we know it
is a three-episode arc, it
probably will go something like that.
Hashtag, you have to give me that name again
of the guy you came up with.
Oh, Abulio
Clergana.
So if you made it to the episode,
try to spell it however you want.
Try to spell that. Hashtag Scram
can work as well, but Abulio Clergana. I kind of want to see all the different versions of that yeah tweet them at us
and let us know thanks for listening and subscribe to the youtube channel come on please please
