The ZM Podcast Network. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley. These guys have been teasing me because I'm very, very excited to be speaking to you. I am a Dave Filoni animated Star Wars fan from way back. Thank you so much. I saw Katana was my favorite Jedi. I'm just going to get that out there right now Here we go He's been so scrambled

You were like You see his shirt He's wearing the shirt Yeah He was like Should I sit? Should I stand? Do I speak?

What do I do? We're just going to pass it over to Vaughn I think We're on limited time I've got questions that need to be answered Let's go

Speed round Season 3 of The Mandalorian is going to have as big a reveal as the reveals that were Grogu I've got questions that need to be answered. Let's go. Speed round. Is season three of The Mandalorian going to have as big a reveal as the reveals that were Grogu, The Return of Boba Fett, or Luke in season three? Well, that would be a big reveal itself. I don't know if you could go bigger than that. Those were pretty – now people are expecting things. So it's, they're, they're kind of laying in the weeds, waiting to see what we do, but we'd like to have surprises every week. We like to have something unexpected happen because we love the conversation. We love people like you who have some thoughts about what's going to come and then show, uh, and then, and

sometimes live up to them and sometimes maybe make a slightly different choice. But we love the conversation. This weekly release of it allows for a lot of conversation to shake out over that week and then hopefully building to a season ender that pays off all of people's expectations. Yeah. I'm just going to take the clippy answer where you said, I love people like you. I know. Yeah.

That's in the bank. That just happened. Now, New Zealand, we had Taika Waititi as our connection to season one. Uncle Tim in season two. Does New Zealand get a connection in season three? Are we plucking in any straws of any New Zealanders? Like anything, we can't answer that question because if we answer that question, that's actually giving information and saying, well, who's in it and who's not. So it's a very clever.

We can't talk about the Peter Jackson cameo. I can't. I won't even confirm anything. I've been around too long. It sounds like we've got to get PJ in there at some point. You never know. Always in motion is the future. And Vaughn, maybe even season four, because Vaughn does a lot of characters, don't you?

I do a lot of characters. He does a lot of characters. I'll be anything. I'll pay for my own flights. I'll be, backer. I'll be anything. I'll be anything. I'll pay for my own flights. I'll be, forget it. I'm not a part of a union or anything. You smash me, hit me if you want.

No, the rules don't apply to me. I'll be there. I'll be there. Now, it's impossibly hard to imagine if it wasn't Pedro Pascal, but if it wasn't, who would it be? He's so good. Every role. I say this about every role that Pedro plays.

You're going to think I'm just saying this because you're asking, but I think you would have been. Oh, my God. There we go. John, you're stuffed up there because he's never going to let this go. We will not hear the end of it. Oh, my God. You just ruined those two's week.

I ain't made a man of it. You tell them to look at their face. You just ruined those two's week. I hate being a Mandalorian. You tell them to look at their face. What you just said is going to be the conversation for the next month. It's going to be the bumper every time they come back from commercial. That's fine. You know, I came to Celebration last year. And at Disneyland, I bought the Darksaber. I bought a lot of lightsabers.

And my wife was so angry at the amount of money I spent on lightsabers. But now that I'm a Mandalorian, I rightfully own the darksaber. You needed one. No one can take it away from me. Are you willing to take responsibility for making Pedro Pascal the internet's biggest daddy? He is a daddy. Yes, he's the dad of the year, father of the year between the two shows. Amazing.

Yeah, he's great. He's good. He's very protective over the little ones, which is good's great he's good he's he's very protective over the little ones which is good yeah no he's been wonderful like he has been kicking around for so long and now all of a sudden he's like this overnight success after working for decades in the business i know he's been doing i mean you think a game of thrones and narcos i was just that's just the beginning of it now he's having a moment and it's great to see him being recognized for all the work he's been doing. Now, Deep Star Wars question. I'm sorry, that's all the time we're going to have.

Oh my god, oh no! Let's answer Dave, let's hear it. How do you decide, with the lore you included things like the N1 Starfighter, the Mandalorian new ship, which people, deep Star Wars fans would know from the prequels. And then you'd pop in a droid that was in the background shot of the original trilogy or a background cult character. How do you decide which ones you're going to use? Well, our big thing is to make sure that even new Star Wars fans

are welcome here. If you've never seen anything, hopefully you're able to enjoy the show. And no matter what your favorite Star Wars is, we want to have something for you. So if you've been watching Star Wars since you're 10, like me, and you're seeing it since the original film came out, or somebody came up with the Clone Wars,

like we want to make sure that you know that we're into all of it's being acknowledged here. But that should be just part of the fabric and the background of it. So if you know what the ice cream maker is from Willow Hood, you'll appreciate what the Camtono is. But if you don't know what it is, it doesn't interfere. It doesn't demand that level of knowledge, but we want to reward people who read all the books and all the comics and all the guides. We have things that were toys that were never in the show that we made in real life, like Bib Fortuna's staff and the transport that carried the end of Season 1, right?

The transport that carried all the stormtroopers. Those are things that were never in real life but only existed as toys. So, you know, that's part of the fun here is to just breathe life into it and bring all Star Wars fans together. Oh, my God. John, Dave, you have made this man's life today I've just had the best five minutes with you guys. The show isn't even out yet

I hope you like it I don't care I have Star Wars pumping straight into my veins, I just I love it so much. Thank you so much Thank you so much guys, bye Thank you Oh, I just heard your tummy Yeah, that was my tum tums Thanks so much, guys. Bye. Thank you.

Oh, I just heard your tummy hurt. Yeah, that was my tum-tums. That was my tum-tum-tums. Hey, guys, I reckon that was the most fun I've ever had on a show. Ah, not for me. Vaughan? Nowhere even close. Nowhere even close. Nowhere even close.

You haven't been here long, have you? No, I haven't. No. Well, if you were listening and you had fun, why don't you give us a little review and a rating? ZM's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
