The Force Is Strong with This One... Maybe | Jedi Trials Matchup 3: Alex Lettsyo vs. David Faux
63 Plays1 month ago
The Jedi Trials continue as Alex Lettsyo and David Faux enter the arena for Matchup 3 in the quest to prove who knows the most about a galaxy far, far away.
Before the trivia battle begins, the competitors dive into a lively discussion about Andor, the Expanded Universe, favorite Star Wars stories, and one of the fandom's most debated films: The Last Jedi. Then the questions start flying.
From actors and characters to creatures, quotes, and Star Wars references hidden in other media, every answer could mean the difference between advancing in the tournament and heading back to the archives.
Will the Force guide them to victory, or will the pressure of the Jedi Trials prove too much?
May the Force be with them... they're going to need it.

Intro
Podcast Introduction
00:00:55
Speaker
so and welcome to another episode of the Ohana Packers Edition podcast. We are Ope. I am Iowa Joe. This match-up three of our... Again, I am still trying to figure out if I want to name it this or if I'm coming up, but I've been calling it the Boonta Ope Classic ah or the Jedi Trials.
00:01:16
Speaker
One or the other. Both of them work. But this is match-up
Introducing Special Guests
00:01:20
Speaker
three. We have Alex Leccio and David Foxx. These two gentlemen I met specifically when I put up this. I put out a call for arms out on the social medias and these two gentlemen volunteered right away for this setup. So Alex, David, it's good to meet you guys. Alex, if you can kind of introduce yourself.
Exploring Star Wars Novels and Media
00:01:42
Speaker
And the main question I have been putting to everybody is what is your favorite Star Wars media as of the moment?
00:01:50
Speaker
Ooh, well, my name is Alex Letzio. My name is Alex Letzio. My tag is Alex Letzio. You can find me on TikTok, Instagram a little bit, and YouTube even less. I'm trying to post more on both of those.
00:02:03
Speaker
But i talk about Star Wars in general. I also talk about other sci-fi things, but Star Wars is the primary. i would say my main focus is on the Star Wars novels, and I consider myself something of lore master. You know, i try to stay humble. Don't assume I know too much, but i've I've got a broad grasp on the series and my favorite piece of Star Wars media.
'Andor' Series Discussion
00:02:26
Speaker
I'm so torn because A New Hope is to me one of the greatest movies of all time. It's one of the best Star Wars movies easily, and it's so Jedi forward that it feels like the core of Star Wars to me.
00:02:40
Speaker
but Dang, man. Andor is so good. Andor is such a good show. i will tell you this. I will tell you this. And I asked you guys this before you we hopped on that if you had listened to the other two episodes, but and this shocks the hell out of everybody.
00:02:59
Speaker
I've only seen like six episodes of Andor. Oh, man. And everybody asked me, well, didn't you like it? It's like, i don't know if i don't like it it just it was so hard for me to get sucked into it so like i always explain to people when i have a tv show on it's because i'm gaming or something like that otherwise i don't watch much tv or anything like that this is so you gotta watch right and yeah i i have if it's a good show usually i concentrate on the show more than the gaming
00:03:33
Speaker
But if it's a show that I'm struggling with, I'll concentrate more on the gaming than the show. And Andor Fit, that second boat where it's just like, okay, yeah, I get that. Yeah, yeah, okay, okay, I get that.
Viewing Habits and Challenges with 'Andor'
00:03:44
Speaker
And I made it to like episode six, and i was like, okay, there's other stuff out there right now I need to watch. i'll Maybe I'll come back to it at some time. And I just haven't come back to it yet. so It's because you were never watching it. You were playing video games. mean...
00:04:01
Speaker
It's like Game of Thrones. The whole appeal is that it's interesting people saying interesting things. If you're not following, you're you're missing out. I strong, strong, strong recommend it. Can't recommend enough. The show does not hold your hand at all either. There's no like, hey, here's what happened. Here's what's going on. Like, here's here's kind of recapping what's happened already in the episode. It's like, no you're either you're either locked in on it or it's going to be a little tough.
00:04:29
Speaker
And the worst part about it is I was a big fan of Rogue One. So it was hard it's hard for me to get into Android. Like I said, I can't tell you bad, good, whatever. It's just the draw to me. It was really, i don't know if it's the pacing because it is kind of a slower pace.
00:04:46
Speaker
You don't build to it yeah or, I mean, did you watch any episodes just watching the show, not
Favorite Star Wars Media Debate
00:04:53
Speaker
playing? Yeah. yeah I mean, usually if I'm got a game on it, it's like a world builder, like seven days to die or something like that, where it doesn't, you know, it doesn't take my attention or, you know, let,
00:05:07
Speaker
it Whereas, you know what I mean, where like Minecraft or something like that, where you can sit still in Minecraft for like an hour and not worry about, you know, anything horrible and you can sit there and watch it. I watched like the first episode and i think I watched the prison escape one because everybody was like, that was like the best episode.
00:05:31
Speaker
And I watched those without doing anything else. And I still, I just, to this day, I struggle with it and i it's like, okay, I got to get back to it. I got to get back to
Star Wars Trivia Game Introduction
00:05:39
Speaker
it. Because it's like the that and Skeleton Crew are the only two things Star Wars-wise I haven't watched yet.
00:05:45
Speaker
Skeleton Crew, it's cute. It's fun. liked it a lot, but it is not like a must-see. Andor is a must-see. Andor. i kid I could go on.
00:05:57
Speaker
We're not going to. We could have a whole other... I'm hoping to have another roundtable at some point where we'll have discussion. We did one last year and it was fun. I'm hoping to have another one this year. but david David Fox, again, another guy that volunteered for my my Jedi
Meet David Foxx
00:06:17
Speaker
trials here. David, why don't introduce yourself and, again, what is your favorite media or Star Wars media as of the moment?
00:06:24
Speaker
My name is David Fox. You can find me posting extraordinarily, irregularly on Twitter, at D-F-A-U-X-Y, about whatever at this point. um Really, the the main reason why this even came onto my radar was because someone that I used to work with at Cover One, who covers the Buffalo Bills and had podcast with them for a bit, he just sort of sent that out to me and was like, hey, you want to do this? i was like, maybe.
00:06:59
Speaker
So ended up Getting, just DMing you and away we went. And, God, favorite Star
David's Star Wars Favorites
00:07:07
Speaker
Wars media. It's like you're asking me to pick which of my non-existent children is my favorite. um Well, and it's got to be your current one, because I could sit here and go off on what my long time, you know, like I'm a big old Expanded Universe fan. Sure.
00:07:24
Speaker
You know, i own all the novels from the old expanded universe. Yeah. I... I see you. I know where you're from. My top four in terms of, like, movies has always, like, at least the last couple of years has always been a New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, Revenge of the Sith, The Last Jedi. All of those are interchangeable in my mind. Like, on any given day, I'm like, yeah, Empire Strikes Back is, like, obviously the best thing. And then, like, i I'll watch The Last Jedi and I'll be like...
00:07:53
Speaker
yeah, but this is so freaking cool. This is just like the coolest thing. um And then, know, I have to have a round table one these days because I want you guys to look for ah what did they name it? It's watching stuff.
00:08:09
Speaker
The Star Wars version of it. I was at a one of our other contestants, Dan Kotnick and his his friend Aaron Alice did a they would watch the movie and talk about it at the same time.
00:08:25
Speaker
And I got invited on for The Last Jedi because I am a well-known Last Jedi hater. Ooh. So we definitely got to have this round table one of these days. You guys can go find that episode and listen to it.
00:08:38
Speaker
To that point was their longest episode ever because I would go on epic rant. I had literal like a notebook full of notes because I went and rewatched it and went through ah each note. And I literally just threw that paper that couple pages away like a month ago. i found it again.
00:08:58
Speaker
I thought i'm doing the same thing as just doing like a watch along talk about my thoughts in the movie as it plays. Like, honestly, I imagine it's like a riff tracks kind of thing.
00:09:10
Speaker
Mystery science theater. Yes. Yeah, yeah. All right, fellas, this is what we're here for.
Trivia Game Rules and Categories
00:09:17
Speaker
We are here for the the trivia, the Boonta Ope classic.
00:09:23
Speaker
I like Trials. I think that's a good name. Jedi Trials? Okay. I was trying to be a little bit punny there because of the Yope thing. Right. But Yope is such Midwest like classic perfection in my mind.
00:09:36
Speaker
Oh, really? I think Jedi Trials is fun because then when someone wins, it's like, yes, you have ascended. You have been granted the rank of knight. The other ones get back to training. And that's that's what I thought about, too. So it's still up in the air. Maybe we'll have something set by the time we do this again next the next year. um But we did kind of go over the rules a little bit before recording.
00:10:02
Speaker
Still the same five character character characters. Categories. Idiot's Array. Miscellaneous. Questions from all TV movies. Who played me?
00:10:13
Speaker
I give you the character. You give me who played them. Again, for those listening, there is a possibility of multiple points on this one if you can name multiples to it. And it is the face of that character.
00:10:26
Speaker
It's not a body double, not a... ah ah You know... the person in the suit whatever it's the known person for that character everybody's least favorite category what the heck was that which is creatures of the star wars universe these are non-humanoid creatures so it's not going to be a wookie it's not going to be a rodian it's not going to be a twi'lek you know it's not going to be anything like that who said that i give you the quote you give me who said that And then finally everybody's favorite. And I actually was having to write more of these up before getting on here in another galaxy far, far away. This is star Wars and other TV and movies.
00:11:09
Speaker
So how would we like to decide who goes first on this one? A rock, paper, scissors. I fortunately don't have my 20 sided die on here. Otherwise I'd say we do odds evens.
00:11:23
Speaker
Um, Let's see, David, how about a game of highest number? I'll say a number, and you try to say a number higher than that. Sure, let's give it a go. 6,000. Beat that. 6,001. Hey, man.
00:11:42
Speaker
beat that
00:11:45
Speaker
six ounces and and one
00:11:49
Speaker
yeah
00:11:54
Speaker
D20. All right. I have a D20 roller. Probably won the highest number. He's got it. If you want to let him go first, we can go first we can go with that. i can go with that. David.
00:12:10
Speaker
Yes. You get to pick your category.
Trivia Questions and Banter
00:12:13
Speaker
All right. Let's see. I hope he doesn't pick anything. I'll feel like a fool. Let's start with... ah Who said that?
00:12:23
Speaker
Who said that? Obviously, i just did. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that. These are the ways I get you. It kind of is, honestly.
00:12:38
Speaker
Rebellions are built on hope.
00:12:42
Speaker
Um, man, ah here's the thing. answered your questions, didn't I? That could be any number of people.
00:12:54
Speaker
I'm gonna say, it's this something that I can give multiple answers to? Because I feel like I kind of have to. Right, but this one I will let you know specifically. i only have one name wrote down on this. Okay, if you only have one name written down for this, then I'm going to say it's Jin Erso because it's the one most often attributed to.
00:13:17
Speaker
That would be correct, and you got lucky on that one because there are some really hard quotes in there. As soon as I saw it, i was like, okay, these guys know their trivia. This one's not getting past any of them. I...
00:13:32
Speaker
You absolutely do. Now, yeah, I'll say, David, can you name the other two? I can name one of them. Cassian, and i I can't think of the name of the guy, but it's the hotel clerk on Gorman.
00:13:46
Speaker
I'm like, if anyone knew the hotel clerk's name, i would be amazed. I would be like, i would I would be thrown in the towel.
00:13:56
Speaker
I know some bloodshed. If you're talking KOTOR, at one time, I could have probably named all of them. Like everybody in every... Everybody that you meet that has an actual name and not just like... That's crazy.
00:14:11
Speaker
Because i will let you know this. with a lot of people i'll be 40 this year so i was in college when kotor came out and then kotor 2 came out you and we spent so much time playing those games that i started learning every little nook and cranny and everything else so at one time i could have probably named all of them that had actual names to them that's how that's how much of a
00:14:42
Speaker
ah bum I was in college. When we got in games, we we sat there and tried to pick them apart. Okay. Anyway, Alex, it is your turn to pick a category. And I forgot to explain this for the audio people. Again, there are three lifelines.
00:14:58
Speaker
You get two that are hints and one ah reshuffle. So I will do my best to give you guys hints.
00:15:09
Speaker
The last one, the other one is we just put the card back into the deck and I draw another one.
00:15:15
Speaker
I will take... I'll go with another who said that. Alrighty.
00:15:26
Speaker
And if you guys hear something snoring, it's my dog over there.
00:15:32
Speaker
Don't try to grow up too fast.
00:15:39
Speaker
And again, I forgot to mention this, there is a 30 second clock.
00:15:46
Speaker
And unfortunately, I don't do voices, so you're stuck with the way I say things. That would help a lot. There's some accent work that could go into. yeah Oh, gosh, I don't want to risk hitting the 30 second, but I think you've got me with a... You're about 10 seconds.
00:16:03
Speaker
i I'm to ask for a lifeline. Okay, which one are you going to go with? is there Is there like a set number of questions that we're going through and it's just whoever can get the most of them? or I have my whole stack here. There's ten questions apiece. Oh, ten apiece. Yeah, ten questions.
00:16:21
Speaker
Okay. So are you wanting to use a lifeline are you know let the time clock out? I will use a lifeline and I'll ask for a hint. I have a hunch, but... This one... I'll give you the movie.
00:16:37
Speaker
This was in Attack of the Clones. Okay. And you're at four seconds as soon as I restart the clock. I will guess Padme Amidala.
00:16:50
Speaker
That would be it.
00:16:54
Speaker
Full disclosure, it was a Hail Mary between her and Obi-Wan, because I assume she says it to Anakin, right? Yeah, yeah. He's the one who clearly needs to grow up. My first note was Qui-Gon. which Attack of the Clones threw right out the window. Right.
00:17:08
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. I mean, that was the best i could do without completely just giving it away. Absolutely. But I told you, there's some rough ones in here, man. I'm telling you, I didn't easy on it. It wasn't easy. I felt like I had that one, but it took a little bit to kind of piece together where that was coming from.
00:17:30
Speaker
Okay, we are on question two. David, it is your pick. All right, I'm going to go with...
00:17:40
Speaker
Who played me? Who played in me This one, I have to say, is even harder for the most part because I have some really ob obscure guy ah people in here.
00:17:51
Speaker
Okay. Now, no saying that, I'm going to like pull out like the easiest one. my gunji it's And I did. Fenix Shand. Oh, that is Ming-Na Wen.
00:18:05
Speaker
Yeah. That's pretty, man. that I've had a crush on her for... i didn And you know what? Who can blame you? But she's been in so many great things. I mean, yeah you know, she was Mulan.
00:18:18
Speaker
She was... Trying to herself. Yeah. So if you could get away with that without seeming like an ass, but if you're making that like, obviously, i would too. Yeah. ah Street fight Fighter. Who can forget her in Street Fighter? Yeah. Yeah.
00:18:36
Speaker
All right, Alex, your choice. All right, we'll we'll go some variety. I'm going to go with In Another Galaxy Far, Far Away. This is everybody's favorite topic because it's the most random stuff that you could ask for.
00:19:01
Speaker
Okay, if you don't get this one, then I gotta question it. All right. In an homage to Return of the Jedi, this character sees a corporeal version of Chubbs, Abraham Lincoln, and an alligator at the end of what movie?
00:19:24
Speaker
Chubbs.
00:19:28
Speaker
I know this film Chubbs, Abraham Lincoln and an alligator. i mean, Chubbs has got to be like a character in it. yeah don't know. I don't know. A movie with a gentleman named Chubbs.
00:19:40
Speaker
Oh, this is the risk because I don't think I've ever seen this motion picture. I'm willing to bet you have. You're just overthinking it in that is time. <unk> Yeah, I'm done. I'm out.
00:19:53
Speaker
Happy Gilmore.
00:19:56
Speaker
You know, I have seen it years ago. don't remember. I guess, yeah, he does hit the... At the end of the game, they're standing in front of Grandma's house. It pans out, and there's a ghostly vision in the clouds of Chubbs, his coach, Abraham Lincoln, and the alligator that he killed in honor of Chubbs. Yeah, yeah. Because they took Chubbs' aunt.
00:20:25
Speaker
ah Yeah, I don't even remember. I don't think I could tell you a single detail about Happy Gilmore other than Adam Sandler is in it. It's about golf. Yeah, you guys are relatively younger than me, too, so I grew up in the time zone. Hold on. There's nothing to do with this. is It only has to do with the fact that I don't like Adam Sandler. I have seen Happy Gilmore when I was extremely sick and one of my friends was like, here, watch this. It might help.
00:20:49
Speaker
Yeah, but you to remember that came out in... the mid to late 90s so that was top of the world back then yeah yeah and that was when i was it'd be tough to avoid him probably around middle school time so that would have been the type of movie that we were come on yeah all right so alex this is question four i believe me again you go back to himberg Oh, no, David. David. Sorry, I thought I was talking to David so much in that one.
00:21:21
Speaker
This is question three. Okay. No, this is question four. It's going to me. Okay. See, I can't even keep track of my own questions on here. It's fine. Because go on tangent.
00:21:32
Speaker
So, yes. And the score is currently David 2, Alex 1. Okay. I'm going to go with... What the What the heck? What the heck was that? This is the least favorite of every of them because these are the most random creatures out there.
00:21:51
Speaker
And hopefully I put ah put it as a good question or in a good form.
00:21:58
Speaker
And of course I give you the easiest one. What is the name of the short winged birds with flat beakless face and two webbed feet?
00:22:11
Speaker
30 seconds. What is the name of the short-winged birds with flat, beakless faces and two webbed feet? Horgs.
00:22:23
Speaker
Horgs. that's fine Describing it offhand, it's like, oh, couldn't have possibly. I was really hoping that he wouldn't ask me for a hint on that one.
00:22:35
Speaker
I don't know how else I would put it. Oh man. That's so funny that that gets pulled after our discourse over The Last Jedi. If you didn't get that one, then I was going to question that one too. Oh man. So now it is three to one.
00:22:54
Speaker
So Alex, it is your pick. Okay. i will go, you know what, just to round out the categories, let's try Idiot's Array. This one, I like this one too. This one's a good, solid mixture of everything. Always fun to get a nice miscellaneous.
00:23:12
Speaker
With your knowledge, you should be able to get this one.
00:23:16
Speaker
Let me get my clock up here so I can hit the button when I get finished. What is the ID number of the Stormtrooper who the Imperial officer thinks is not at his post guarding Han's ship on the Death Star?
00:23:31
Speaker
God, I should know that.
00:23:36
Speaker
Don't ask me for if it hint because I don't know if I can give one to you. there yeah So don't use your your last two lifelines ah unless you want to reshuffle. Oh, I keep trying for the bold categories and it keeps biting me. um You got 10 seconds. twenty one What's that? 421.
00:23:55
Speaker
There's a couple of letters with it. TK421? Yeah. TK421. yeah t k four two one
00:24:03
Speaker
i was I was about 60% certain I was just making that number up wholesale, so I'm glad. This is kind of like Jason Bourne where like the the information is returning to me.
00:24:15
Speaker
I know it even though I don't know it
00:24:20
Speaker
it. Another Tony Gilroy project, by the way.
00:24:25
Speaker
Tony Gilroy made Jason Bourne? Yes. I've never actually seen any of them. Now I'll have to. You kind of have to now. That's crazy. and I think that's what i was explained to me was the that's the guy that did in the Andor series, right? Yes. Yeah, yeah that that was explained to me that it's very similar to how he did the Bourne movies with the pacing and stuff like this that. Is what Jason Bourne is? I've never seen it.
00:24:51
Speaker
It's so much cooler than I thought it was, I guess. I saw one. I think I saw the Bourne ultimatum when I was in middle school. I don't remember a whole lot of it. if But I thought it was cool. Andor, oh my god. um They said that the pacing was very similar to how they did it in Andor, so if if you really like that in Andor, then you would like the movies. all right, but anyway, that's a whole other series that
'Kenobi' Series Review
00:25:17
Speaker
we're getting into. So David, it is your your selection.
00:25:21
Speaker
I am gonna do Idiot's Array as well.
00:25:26
Speaker
Let's see if I can give you one that you're not going to know that's not as easy. feel like I've gotten a little lucky in terms of difficulty. You've done well. Yeah. The Force is with you, young one. Apparently.
00:25:40
Speaker
But you are not a Jedi yet. All right. This one could be in an and interesting one.
00:25:48
Speaker
How well do you know the details? How many death troopers accompany Krennic when he comes to take Jyn's family away? wheat
00:26:06
Speaker
field.
00:26:10
Speaker
A moisture in the air. Foggy skies.
00:26:16
Speaker
You got 12 seconds. I'm gonna go with eight.
00:26:23
Speaker
I'm gonna with 8. No.
00:26:27
Speaker
Is it 6? Yeah. kind height But you said it after the timer so you do not get the point on that one. I will let you guys know you have multiple guesses with it so if I tell you that you...
00:26:40
Speaker
um I was like, four, six, eight, ten. ah Yeah, I forgot to mention that one. But everybody else, I've been letting, if they give me an answer and there's still time on the clock, and I say no, that you guys can.
00:26:52
Speaker
Okay, that'd good to know. So if if it came to a question like, ah you know, who played this person, and you're just starting to throw out names, as long as there's time on the clock, we can go with it.
00:27:05
Speaker
Wow. All right. Yeah, I've been I've been going off Jeopardy rules. going start answering much quicker. Yeah. And then default to others. All right. So it is your choice. is TK number one one. one juji two How fast can I count to a thousand?
00:27:22
Speaker
It's your choice. I am going to go. going to go. Who said that again? OK, I need hint last time. but Let's see if I can redeem myself.
00:27:33
Speaker
Yes, you have two left and David still has not used his lifelines.
00:27:41
Speaker
Let me get my clock up because I keep forgetting to do that.
00:27:46
Speaker
That's what a reckoning sounds like.
00:27:55
Speaker
And again, you're getting it as my voice because I cannot do voices. Voices would help a lot, but that's maybe a reason not to do them. right Right. Is it Saw Gerrera?
00:28:06
Speaker
No. You got 10 seconds. Dude, I don't think I'm going to get this. That's what a reckoning sounds like. Luthan Rail. No, wait. Three, two, one.
00:28:20
Speaker
i know David knows it. You're circling all around it, dude. Marva, Karasi, Andor. Wow. i Just the vibe of it, I was like, this feels like Andor, but I don't know who.
00:28:35
Speaker
Which is funny, because we've been talking about that this whole time. It's when they're going to arrest Cassian, and they're all clanging outside. yeah Such a good show. All right.
00:28:50
Speaker
You know, this is still pretty close, but I figured we would be neck to neck. I didn't figure there would be many missed questions in this, but you guys are... I have done very good with my questions here. that's on ni all easy These are definitely not like easy. Everyone's going to get them right off the rip. so that's the thing these are good see But they're also not like impossible. right yeah There's a sweet spot in there that's so hard. yes You just wait until you start getting some more of these creatures, then you're really gonna-
00:29:23
Speaker
And maybe the who played me's. I told you, I want some real, very out there characters for that one. But David, it is your pick. I think we're on question five. Are we halfway through this now? believe that's the case.
00:29:38
Speaker
ah I'm gonna go with who said that. Who said that?
00:29:50
Speaker
Okay. Sorry, sometimes I gotta read my own handwriting. I did all these handwritten, so you know they're special. I am what you made me.
00:30:04
Speaker
That would be anikin Skywalker slash Darth Vader to Obi-Wan Kenobi. That would be correct. And I liked Kenobi. I don't know care what other people say. I did like Kenobi.
00:30:17
Speaker
I think it's a flawed show. That is a great line, though. That exchange is a part of why I, like, I don't dislike it. I don't think I could say I dislike it. It's it's a not a good show, but, like, that whole, you know, what have you become? Yeah.
00:30:35
Speaker
The only thing that drove me nuts about that show was the girl that played Leia... And how this bow-legged running little girl can get along the way.
00:30:48
Speaker
That scene. it's It's an albatross around the neck of the show. But other than that, I really enjoyed it. was going say, it's not the only one. It's got a lot of albatrosses. Compared to what a lot of people did with that show, I really enjoyed it because it...
00:31:04
Speaker
When I think of Obi-Wan Kenobi in Exile, that's kind of what I think about with him. is He's giving up on everything. He's just doing his daily you know grind.
00:31:16
Speaker
And then he gets drugged back into shit. so all right So, Alex, you are down 4-2. four to two i am. I keep getting... This is question 6.
00:31:30
Speaker
Or no, this is question five because David started. So this is your question five. This is my fifth. Yeah. I got to start, Ken. See, the thing is, the trouble here, i would say my specialty, my main fonts of knowledge is lore of the series.
00:31:46
Speaker
Not reflected in any of these. Maybe I get lucky with Idiot's Array.
Darth Bane Trivia and Insights
00:31:51
Speaker
Idiot's Array would probably be your best with that. I am gonna try, you know, we'll we'll go, what the heck was that?
00:32:01
Speaker
What the heck was that? I want to try at least... I will say your lore stuff might also help you with and in another galaxy far, far away. That, you you hit me with Happy Gilmore last time. I believe you.
00:32:18
Speaker
I gotta hit my timer up here. my phone keeps going to sleep. These furry animals were raised for their milk, meat, and hide. They can also be used as an insult.
00:32:31
Speaker
Nerf. Yep, that would be it. I got that one out quick because I was like, it could be Bantha, I guess. I think they have, you know, their milk is popular. butt But I was like, it's either Nerf or Bantha.
00:32:44
Speaker
Let's start with the first. All right. Well, now you're only one behind. So, David, this is question six now. For you. I am going to do... Who played me again? Who played me? And I will tell you, and this sucks from my end of it because I am a big old Expanded Universe fan, none of the Expanded Universe is in this because it made it a little bit easier for some of the other contestants because they're yeah more casuals than...
00:33:15
Speaker
oh full on nerds like the rest of us. But it's also like as far as playing, how many expanded universe characters have had actors ever? Like Mara Jade got one.
00:33:29
Speaker
Thrawn, I guess, counts. Yeah, but i if I wanted to, I could throw in like the books. the the TV show, or not TV shows, the video games, those would be a lot, but none of that stuff's in.
00:33:43
Speaker
Well, so when you say books, like no one played anyone in the books. No one played Cornhorn. I agree. I think he's speaking in general. In general. In general. Yeah. You know, all the questions, you know, all the topics. yeah I get you. Oh, all of them. Yes, I see. Yeah. see you yeah That's a shame. Okay.
00:34:03
Speaker
Are you ready? I'm hoping I pronounced this right. Dorme.
00:34:11
Speaker
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That's Rose Byrne, isn't it? That would be correct. That's a strong pull. I didn't figure anybody would get that. man.
00:34:22
Speaker
Impressive. yeah That is a strong pull. I don't know if to pull back on that one, Alex. I think that might be out. i That was strong certainly couldn't have gotten that.
00:34:36
Speaker
Alright, this is your question, Stig. I really did. i That one was one of the hard ones that i was like, it's a big star who's this character. It is, which is so classic Star Wars. Just a random person who appears very briefly in some role and then it's just like, oh yeah, 20 years later, everybody knows who this person is. And you get to say like, oh yeah, she was Dorme in Star Wars and they look at you like you're crazy. Like that's the thing you know Rose Byrne from.
00:35:07
Speaker
All right, what do we got, Alex? I think I'll go with who played me. That's the only one i haven't tried so far.
00:35:18
Speaker
Now you know what you're up against, too, because I told you, I got some strong pulls out of this one. That's some niche ones, yeah. This one is definitely another strong pull. I will give you warning on that one.
00:35:31
Speaker
We'll see. Darth Vader. Darth Bane. Who played Darth Bane was Mark Hamill. That is Mark Hamill.
00:35:42
Speaker
Voiced Darth Bane in a vision to Yoda in Clone Wars. Kind of. Oh, man. that There are some much worse options I could have gotten. That one is such an iconic because they got Mark for it, and it's such a perfect use of him.
00:35:55
Speaker
But the funny thing is, is he's voiced a lot of different things in Star Wars that nobody ever knows. He's like in everything as a voice of some kind. it's Yeah, i love he's in Rise of Skywalker twice.
00:36:06
Speaker
Yeah. a um And he's he's in a lot of the TV shows outside of being himself. He's ah usually a droid of some kind. I think he was the droid in one of when they was it in Kenobi was it Mandalorian when they went to Tatooine because they went to his the cantina, the Mos Eisley Cantina and And he was like the server droid.
00:36:35
Speaker
Interesting. I think that was in a Mando. I think this one. Yeah, that was season one. Yeah. Yeah. That's so funny. All right. great This question seven
Influence of Star Wars Trivia Book
00:36:45
Speaker
for David. What are we going with? All right.
00:36:48
Speaker
I'm going go with Idiot's Array. Idiot's Array. Now for, and I've got it here so I can show you guys this. If I don't knock my computer over.
00:37:01
Speaker
The Idiot's Array comes specifically from this trivia book. Interesting. So if you have that trivia book. Yeah, it took me like a month to get it from Amazon. so Catch me on the next one. you know Ask for a question. Oh, interesting.
00:37:17
Speaker
They're doing fast, though. I'm going to quick. 30 seconds to flip through the whole book. Bye. Okay.
00:37:29
Speaker
After the destruction of Kamino, Emperor Palpatine calls for the passing of new legislation and the creation of what?
00:37:44
Speaker
After the destruction of Kamino. After the destruction of Kamino, Emperor Palpatine calls for the passing of new legislation and the creation of what?
00:37:55
Speaker
A conscripted army? Can you be a little bit more specific on it? and You basically got the idea, but... A conscripted army of non-clones.
00:38:09
Speaker
I got them called Imperial Stormtroopers. Sure. Stormtroopers. Yeah, the you've got it right. just i was getting a little bit more detailed. Yeah.
00:38:21
Speaker
At least that's what the book has, is that they specifically call them the Imperial Stormtroopers. did Does he say Stormtroopers in Bad Batch? Is that what he says? He does. Does he? Mr. Lush are in the era of the Imperial Stormtrooper.
00:38:36
Speaker
Which is another good show, is Bad Batch. Like I said on the last episode, I hope that they do further expansions with that portion, because the last we see is Omega going off to fight for the Rebellion. Right.
00:38:51
Speaker
So I hope that they do something a little bit further on with that one. So this is question seven for Alex. Am I right on that? Or is this six for Alex?
00:39:05
Speaker
I think seven. Seven sounds right. See, I can't keep track of my own shit. One of these days, I'm going to get a clicker on here, and I'm going to be able to click this shit. I will go. Let's go another What the Heck Was That?
00:39:18
Speaker
What the heck was that?
00:39:26
Speaker
can get my fingers to work here.
00:39:38
Speaker
This one could be... What can be an unfortunate side effect of being exposed to boar gullet? One tends to lose one's mind.
00:39:50
Speaker
That would be correct. See, you can do the voices. I can do the voices. Nice! Deception! You know, he's got that voice anyway.
00:40:03
Speaker
Forrest Whitaker has that voice anyway. So it's not that much of a stretch for him. Huff the ride, oh my boy! Alright, so... David, you're still one up.
00:40:16
Speaker
This would be question eight. It is six to five. Okay. Um... We're not quite to the point where I have to come up with a tiebreaker, so I'm still happy on that. I am going to do... Who said that?
00:40:34
Speaker
Who said that? I'm really surprised you guys are staying away from the... In the Galaxy far, far away. and other said The first one we got was Happy Gilmore. Neither of us knew it. um I'm staying away if I can.
00:40:47
Speaker
Alright, I may be getting into the easy portions of these questions here, so... Okay. oh Mine tricks don't work on me. That would be everyone's favorite degenerate gambler, Watto.
00:41:02
Speaker
That would be correct. Or I should say second favorite degenerate gambler, because the first one is obviously Qui-Gon. Yeah. yeah wow You could have said Han or Lando and both would be true too.
00:41:13
Speaker
Yeah. listen Especially Lando. Here's the thing, and I'm so glad that I am on a sports-related podcast to talk about this. Qui-Gon puts down the most wild parlay bet of all time.
00:41:28
Speaker
It is absolutely insane for him to be like, oh, I am going to wager ship. this incredibly expensive starship on the whim of of a nine-year-old child piloting a a racing machine that can go hundreds of kilometers of hour.
00:41:52
Speaker
And on top of that, I'm also going to wager the pod racer itself as collateral against his and his mom's freedom, if I can get it, as slaves.
00:42:06
Speaker
I mean, Watto was stingy as hell. Qui-Gon had to put up something heavy. And frankly, when you can see the future, it's easy to gamble. I was just go to say, it makes you wonder if that's ah something that we didn't see that maybe Qui-Gon saw this in a premonition.
00:42:20
Speaker
I just think that if... I just always imagine Qui-Gon at the Jedi Temple trying to go onto all these different gambling sites on the the Jedi Temple firewall keeps blocking him and then he's like, he has this opportunity. Obi-Wan's like, well, we can go to Tatooine and Qui-Gon's like, yes, Tatooine. I don't care what anyone else says. i don't care if anything's closer. I know what I can do there.
00:42:44
Speaker
He's got all his receipts from the death battles. I've been getting into online poker, Obi-Wan.
00:42:55
Speaker
unlike The ponies have been treating me poorly. It's a fact. They It's fact. No, Qui-Gon plays poker. There is not much about Qui-Gon's into poker. He got the real one Could you imagine the crossover between Taken and Phantom Menace? Oh, my gosh.
00:43:11
Speaker
Genuinely, Qui-Gon and Taken have some Padawan be, like, kidnapped, and i don't know who you are. You know, in the Phantom Menace video game, if either of you have played that, there is a level where you play as Captain Panaka on Coruscant and the Queen gets captured on their way to the Senate. wait, Alex, you've read Plagueis, right?
00:43:36
Speaker
the the The person in charge of the the kidnapping and the final boss is one of the Sun Guards. Oh, you're kidding. Yeah. Oh, those guys are everywhere. Oh, my God.
00:43:50
Speaker
I love it. Anyway. Okay. feel I feel very satisfied now. yeah All right. We are on... We are 7 5. This would be your question 8, Alex, if my totals are looking right here.
00:44:06
Speaker
Yeah. I'll have to... You know, we'll just just get another one on the board, and because I'm already behind, might as well throw a Hail Mary. I'll go with another galaxy far, far away.
00:44:19
Speaker
And if we hit the right ones, you can tell what non-Star Wars movies are my favorite movies. I swear if it's Happy Gilmore 2, I'm walking. Honestly, I've never seen it.
00:44:34
Speaker
In the scene, let me get my clock up here. In the scene in which Indiana Jones and Sala remove the arc, you can see a hieroglyphic engraving of which two Star Wars characters.
00:44:49
Speaker
Now you've got my kind of movie. Indiana Jones was my hero growing up, my number one character. And so I of course know that R2-D2 and C-3PO are inscribed on That would be correct. it is You being like an OG Indiana Jones fan actually makes so much sense in my mind. Well, it kind goes hand in hand, you know? It does. j really does.
00:45:14
Speaker
if It's such a shame. i would legitimately go grab my Indiana Jones fedora, except in one of my moves, it got put in a box without like padding. So it's real. that's too bad. looks You know, I was honestly going to wear my Vince Lombardi fedora for this game show. Because got this ponytail, it doesn't sit on my head properly right now. So once I get it cut off, I will be able to wear it more often.
00:45:39
Speaker
All right, so we are still, Alex, you are still down by one.
Final Trivia Rounds
00:45:44
Speaker
This would be question nine for David. Got to get this one wrong. All right, let's see. You got to hope he gets this one wrong and you get that one right.
00:45:52
Speaker
so I'm going to go with Idiot's Array. Idiots, hooray. And no Googling. thats
00:46:05
Speaker
Would have taken lot longer to Google Roseburn, can tell you that. I actually use Bing, so I'm good. That's not true. You didn't say I do that. I did. I don't want to hear Ciri talking over there. Alright. Who disguises themselves as a Jedi in order to rescue Padme when she is taken as a hostage for the separatist on Rodia?
00:46:33
Speaker
Jar Jar Binks. That would be Jar Jar Binks. Such a stupid person. And I kind of wish we would have actually got Darth Jar Jar. Ugh.
00:46:47
Speaker
That would have made that so much better. It would certainly helped that bit, yeah. It would have been funny. Well, think about it. If he would have ended up being like Plagueis, that would have made everything so much more better. And you wouldn't have just got that one-off little thing in Revenge of the Sith that have you ever heard of Plagueis the Wise and And it would make up for the fact that he was this, butling you know, quote-unquote, bumbling idiot.
00:47:18
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:47:21
Speaker
All right, so question nine for Alex. You've got to you got to keep this one to keep hope alive. Oh, gosh. Which to go with? Now everything is riding on this question.
00:47:36
Speaker
I'll go...
00:47:41
Speaker
Maybe it's dangerous, but I've done well on what the heck was that. Oh, you want to go with what but the heck was that? I'll go with some creatures. You know, just to throw this out there, who played me has the chance for multiples.
00:47:59
Speaker
That is true. It feels dishonest to change my answer now, though.
00:48:17
Speaker
been cajoled into who played me. I guess that's what I'm going with. I'm flexible. Let's it hit me. Now watch. This will be a one that I pull. That's like a one answer.
00:48:28
Speaker
I'm just going to cite every person who's ever been in the series. Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, George Lucas. It's Baron Poppanoid. Now, I did this once already with a contestant on the first episode, and I'm going to say this now.
00:48:43
Speaker
If you get this wrong, I am completely revoking your Star Wars card. Oh, that's worse. C-3PO. Anthony Daniels.
00:48:55
Speaker
Okay.
00:48:58
Speaker
And only ever Anthony Daniels. Right. Like, it's never been anyone else. That's why when he said he was retiring after of Skywalker, it's like, yeah, I don't believe it when I see it.
00:49:12
Speaker
when you're deep in the ground then i'll believe you're not being super reveal again and then even then i won't believe it because now with ai and everything he's probably going to leave something in his in his estate that says it must only be my voice if james can keep being vader then i can surely yeah okay so you stay within one this is question 10.
00:49:37
Speaker
David, it is your choice. This is kind of for all the marbles. this is It is. Because if you get this right, he's definitely got to go with only one category.
00:49:51
Speaker
I don't want to do it, but I do want to keep things interesting. Go ahead. Did I mention that I'm open to bribery? I never said I was this, you know, this gitty-gitty bribery.
00:50:03
Speaker
I'm going to do In Another Galaxy... ah far, far away, and I'm keeping an eye on what my lifelines actually are. You have all of them.
00:50:15
Speaker
you I do. you hands You have your reshuffle. That's true. Should have been using those. Have not been paying attention. let's do it. And I will honestly tell you, if you listened to our one of our past episodes, you would know this question because it got put back into the deck.
00:50:30
Speaker
Hmm. In Men in Black 2, the worm guys speak what Star Wars language?
00:50:39
Speaker
Oh, boy. I mean, I have a guess. Just sort of... Give me I'll take hint. I'll take a hint. again
00:50:49
Speaker
Outside of basic, it's probably the most known language in the Star Wars universe. I'm gonna go with Huttese. That would be correct. i was gonna say, there's really only one choice. Never seen Men in Black 2, by the way.
00:51:05
Speaker
Well, like other... In that wasn't clear. Just like any other sci-fi movie, they always have some kind of draw to yeah Star Wars. Yeah, always.
00:51:16
Speaker
thanks It would so funny if it was anything but Huttese. They would have to develop a new language because Huttese is the one that's spoken outside of BASIC in the series.
00:51:28
Speaker
like we They're actually speaking Twi'lek as depicted in the books. yeah French accents and all. One time in that one episode of Clone Wars, they said it like this. Alright, this is your last question, Alex. You are down two.
00:51:48
Speaker
Just for just for goos and giggles, I guess. Let's go. Idiot's array. Idiot's array.
00:51:57
Speaker
I don't know if I have any multiples in this one or not, but I will say if there happens to be two answers to it and we can verify it, I will go with that.
00:52:16
Speaker
OK. Okay.
00:52:21
Speaker
What snack do Wrecker and Omega like to share after missions? Nothing but a bag of Mantell mix, of course. ah That would be correct. Unfortunately... not i've gotten that I should have kept going with Idiots Array. i was flying on these.
00:52:37
Speaker
I think one my wrong ones was Idiots Array, though. They, uh... Idiot's Array, if you ever decide to get this book or find it, the Ultimate Star Wars quiz book, they rank them Youngling, Padawan, Jedi Master.
00:52:55
Speaker
So obviously it goes like that, where the Younglings are the easy, the Padawan are your mid, and then your Master the hard ones. So that's what makes Idiot Array just so completely out there, is I just took random ones from all of it, and...
00:53:11
Speaker
but And see, even this, that that last one, they were getting into lore. It's niche lore. Small scale, to be sure. But details in-universe? Oh yeah, I know what the popcorn's called.
00:53:23
Speaker
and However, David does come out as Victor. It is 9 8.
00:53:35
Speaker
I honestly, I figured it was going to be close. I didn't think there would be too many misses on this one. Like I said, before we started recording, I did not plan on putting these two together at this early into things, but because it's like herding cats trying to get everybody matched up and, and all that stuff, you know, it just kind of fell into that, that all three of us had an opening at this point in time.
00:53:59
Speaker
So that's how it went. Um,
00:54:05
Speaker
i it's I will have a i have one more matchup if I can get them which next week is going to be the hardest one because the 4th of July weekend and if I can get those two matched up that weekend if not I will have a the semi-final bracket coming up soon if I have to I will put I have all the points on here. David actually would probably be the number one seed because he scored the most points out out of all of them on so far in the the group.
00:54:44
Speaker
So you would probably if we can't fit that match up in next week because of Fourth of July weekend, David would obviously get the bye. and then we'd go on from there. I'm doing buys too.
00:54:58
Speaker
Hell Well, you gotta do what you gotta do. Sorry. i so yeah i Like I keep telling people, I'm flying by the seat of my pants while doing this thing because of, every you know like I said, matchups and and all that stuff. Trying to get everybody in, everybody out.
00:55:17
Speaker
But it's been a fun so far. We've had some really great matchups. This was another one. maybe if I have to, I will do like a loser's bracket to get one, bring one back into the fray if the possibility has to, but I'm hoping we will only have maybe three or three weeks left of
Podcast Conclusion and Future Plans
00:55:39
Speaker
this. If I'm thinking of it properly, I'm hoping to be done by the end of July, because we will be starting back with our football stuff as soon as training camp kicks off.
00:55:51
Speaker
and As much as I could talk to Star Wars every day of the week, 24 hours a day, you tell me a book, I will go get it off my shelf right now because I probably have it. Hey, same.
00:56:06
Speaker
I will let you guys know I don't have any of the new books. I spent so much money on the old expanded universe with all those books that I just i haven't brought myself to be getting the new ones because it's like then in 20 years you're going to tell me that's null and void and then I'd be in the same boat.
00:56:24
Speaker
And... It's meaningless. Good is good. That's exactly right. nexted Yeah, but if... it You should check out... Try some of the Timothy Zahn ones.
00:56:36
Speaker
Those are essentially extensions of the EU. The Ascendancy... They really are. fully just... Yeah. Here's some workarounds to outbound flight. That's right. But it was fun, guys. That's If you guys want to say again where where you they can find you at and and what you guys are going to be up to, you know if you've got anything that you want to promote or anything like that, I'm sure my handful of listeners would be apt to checking you guys out.
00:57:05
Speaker
So Alex, since you came in second, we'll have you go ahead and push your yeah push your stuff out right now. it's It's a pleasure to lose to a worthy opponent. I am on TikTok and secondarily on Instagram and YouTube as AlexLetsYo.
00:57:21
Speaker
ah I swear I know more about the series than this presentation. But it's been a delight. I don't have anything in particular promote. Just come out and check. You know, I talk about Star Wars. I ah talk whatever's on my mind.
00:57:37
Speaker
You all can find me on Twitter and ah also on TikTok. Again, both very infrequently, kind of just doing whatever I want with that.
00:57:50
Speaker
um Both the same username, at D-F-A-U-X-Y on both of those. But really, you should probably just be following Alex because he's much more consistent and better at this than I am. So...
00:58:03
Speaker
You know, I've found that if you're not actually doing like a podcast or anything, you're hardly on social medias. The only reason I do social medias is because of the podcast. yeah Yeah.
00:58:14
Speaker
Ironically, I've tried to do a podcast to like add extra things to my social media. I can't keep up with it. Yeah. It's a pain. Not fun. And that's why I'm doing this this contest or this trivia Jedi Trials, whatever we're where we're going with.
00:58:32
Speaker
is because this is the time of year that news is just like bare. Yeah. And it's like, okay, well, I don't want to keep regurgitating the same stuff every other podcast is doing. So what can I do to liven things up?
00:58:46
Speaker
last Well, I did a lot of it this year too, but last year I just invited somebody on and we would just talk about random subjects. So we had billy the ah guy from the Billy the Kid Coalition on. We talked Billy the Kid for like two hours. um We had a Star Wars roundtable.
00:59:02
Speaker
We had this year, Alex, since you're more of a TikTok creator, I had Jacques the Z Whipper on. yeah. Yeah, I talked to him. He was my first one.
00:59:16
Speaker
Cooking with Congress, Bennett Ray. I had him on for my second episode. So, you know, if you guys were on the TikTokverse, you know, go over, check those guys out. They they have million followers, if not more, and they were fun to talk to. So...
00:59:31
Speaker
You can find us on all the social medias. I think Twitter is Ohana underscore Packers. Everything else is Ohana Packers edition. ah Me personally, if you want to follow my occasional Twitter, blue sky or whatever, is Iowa underscore Joe 86 on Twitter and blue sky is just Iowa Joe.
