I mean they go to a lot 320 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 3: of trouble. 321 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: I mean, Tea is like an expert in Instagram posts 322 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: like if it's your birthday, you're going to get like 323 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: the most biblical birthday wish, Like you're amazing you find 324 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: these pictures of us. I don't even know where they 325 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: came from. I'm like, oh my gosh, I actually look 326 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: good in that picture. Wow. 327 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 3: You know, you say the. 328 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 5: Kindest things we're supposed to no, I know, you. 329 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: Know, no, no, well there's a few there are definitely, 330 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: and whatever, it doesn't matter there there the camera's a 331 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: tricky tool there. But but but my point is like 332 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: it takes a lot of time and attention and care 333 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: to create these things, and it's also fun to to 334 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: you know, put little I don't know, I enjoy social 335 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: media and creating things and sending fun things to people. 336 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: But it means the world to me because you know, 337 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: back in the day last year, this was just an idea, 338 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: and you know, we weren't even sure, like they were 339 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: saying if if anyone would even you know, want to 340 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: listen to us anymore. But I just had this notion 341 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: that the hashtag Star Wars family was not just a theory, 342 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: that it that it's quite real, and that this would 343 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: be a great way for us to all hang out 344 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: together again. And that is, in fact what seems to 345 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: be happening. And that's very gratifying, as if to say, 346 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: like I knew, I knew we had something, and I 347 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: wasn't crazy. You know, it's an affirmation that our bonds 348 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: are are quite real and that they extend beyond just 349 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: the cast out into the fans, so it's really lovely. 350 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: It's made it more fun to watch again, to be 351 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: able to share that, you know, when the episodes air 352 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: with fans, it's nice to know that we are all 353 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: rewatching and we all are sort of celebrating everything together. 354 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: It's really it's just wonderful soul food. 355 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 7: Really, Taylor, Yeah, still got nothing, all right, good talk, 356 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 7: good hustle.

And then eventually, 654 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: I think by the end of the weekend, I became 655 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: close friends with his wife, and I met him and 656 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: it was just such a lovely integration of my childhood 657 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: my favorite action figure, and he was so kind and 658 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: so lovely, And I learned something from that is that 659 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: sometimes overcompensating if you're in the room with someone who's 660 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: in the public eye, you can actually be almost inhumane. 661 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: So anyway, it's a fine balance. A similar thing happened 662 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: with Billy d Williams. I was so excited in the 663 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: episode where I get to punch him Harrah punches him, 664 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: that I thought, oh my gosh, this is going to 665 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: be a dream come true. And tangentially, I was fighting 666 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: with an MMA fighter. I've been doing martial arts for 667 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 1: a billion years before you were born, probably, But anyway, 668 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 1: he was very good friends with Ron Peerlman and all 669 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 1: these people who I worked out with at the gym, 670 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: and so they were always talking about his art work 671 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,720 Speaker 1: and saying, oh, we'll tell him there's some green character 672 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: that we work out with. And I was like, yeah, yeah, whatever, dude, 673 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: not thinking Billy de Williams to be like interested in 674 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: any of this, but I thought when I got to 675 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: punch him in the episode, at least I would act 676 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: opposite him, or that dream would be realized. I love Lando. No, 677 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: it didn't happen. He was in Dancing with the Stars. 678 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: But eventually James Arnold Taylor convinced me at the Chicago 679 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: Celebration twenty nineteen, I believe he said, no, come on, 680 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: you have to come meet him, and I finally did, 681 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: and he was so gracious and lovely, as is the 682 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 1: case with everyone in the Star Wars universe, and I 683 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: almost didn't want to meet him. You know, they say, 684 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,959 Speaker 1: don't meet your heroes. I was so shy I didn't 685 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: even I don't know anyway, It's just weird. It's just 686 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: such a fine line. You want to be respectful, but 687 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: you don't want to be rude. But luckily, in both instances, 688 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: it was just a really sweet experience. 689 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 3: So I'm grateful for both of those. 690 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 2: I love that. Jason. I'd be curious to hear your 691 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 2: story as well, because you've been so adjacent to Star 692 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 2: Wars for so long, and I'm sure you've met people 693 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 2: within that world too, and I feel like you have 694 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: a story and I would love to hear from you too. 695 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 3: Well. 696 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 6: My Mark Hamill's story is very, very different. I used 697 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 6: to work at a comic book shop in Times Square 698 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 6: called Midtown Comics, which is the biggest comic book shop 699 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:17,879 Speaker 6: in the world by volume. And Mark Hamill in two 700 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 6: thousand and three or two thousand and four was doing 701 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,439 Speaker 6: an off Broadway play and he used to come in 702 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 6: right before we'd close on like Thursday nights and shop 703 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 6: for comic books, and so I would get to walk 704 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 6: around the store with the little step stool and help 705 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 6: him get comic books off the top shelf. So that 706 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 6: was you know, it happened three or four times, and 707 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 6: that was so cool because for me, again, like Luke 708 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,760 Speaker 6: Skywalker is my character the way that Vanessa loves Chewie, 709 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:58,720 Speaker 6: I love Luke Skywalker. Just getting like a quiet, non 710 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 6: fan moment where I got to get to know Mark 711 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 6: Hamill is like a consumer of geek media was really 712 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:14,959 Speaker 6: really special. And then kind of my other big thing 713 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 6: was I did a Star Wars fan film once upon 714 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 6: a Time called Hughes the Force, which was John Hughes 715 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 6: meets Star Wars or if you're familiar with the plot 716 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 6: of Weird Science, they use a Barbie doll to create 717 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 6: this woman who has magic powers and through a series 718 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 6: of high jinks, teaches them self confidence to make it 719 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 6: through high school. And my thing was always what if 720 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:48,839 Speaker 6: that was the Hutslayer leya action, Like if you were 721 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 6: a nerd today, that would be a Hutslayer Layer action. 722 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 6: Figure out a Barbie doll, and so I wrote a 723 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 6: little thirty minute fan film, and I bumped into James 724 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 6: Arnold Taylor at a Clone Wars screening at the Egyptian. 725 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 6: I just mentioned how much I loved his Obi Wan 726 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 6: Kenoby and we traded information, and he played Obi Wan 727 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 6: Kenobi in my little fan film, which kind of like 728 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 6: got me into the world of actually communicating and being 729 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 6: friendly with Star Wars actors, and so that was my 730 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 6: other kind of way in Catherine Tabor. Also, he brought 731 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 6: Catherine Tabor into play padme, which was really cool. So 732 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 6: those those are my Star Wars, like my special Star 733 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 6: Wars kind of celebrity stories. 734 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 2: That's great, man. We should post those clips from He 735 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 2: was the force on our on our social so people 736 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 2: can see because you have a lot. Again, you have 737 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 2: a very deep and rich history of being close to 738 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 2: Star Wars. And you know, I don't know how it 739 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 2: is now, but I know back in the day, Lucasfilm 740 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 2: would Lucas would encourage you to make fan films. I 741 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 2: don't know how it is now, but I know back 742 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 2: in the day, George like, yeah, make the films. I 743 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 2: would love to see your interpretation of this character at 744 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 2: this point in time, whether it's before or after the 745 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 2: Battle of Yabn And that's cool. You got to do 746 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 2: that and combined the Chicagoist at John Hughes, which is 747 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 2: very much what you bring into it. I love that 748 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,959 Speaker 2: you all have Mark Hamill starts. I've never met Mark. 749 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 2: I have met Harrison Ford.

When to move to LA And I'll 751 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 2: try to tell this story really quick because we had 752 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 2: a lot of questions here.

Not 789 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 5: that I didn't know that for the decades of coolness 790 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 5: in you know as Indie and you know Han Solo, 791 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 5: but man, he's just the coolest, the. 792 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 2: Coolest, the king of giving no fs, that's what I 793 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 2: call him.

If you don't know 795 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 2: what is an f uh, that's what it is. I 796 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 2: leap myself out. Next one is from j Flanagin, who as, 797 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 2: are there any scenes or dialogue that were film slash 798 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 2: recorded that were cut out due to pacing or episode 799 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 2: length that you wish would have made it into a 800 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 2: particular episode. So I know this may be a big 801 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 2: ass because you're going back and think the arcs of 802 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 2: ten years, but it's an interesting question on this. 803 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 7: This is a really good question because on every project 804 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 7: virtually stuff is cut, and it's like, that's so common. 805 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 7: But I'm now just going to basically spin this round 806 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 7: and send it back to Vanessa and Tia. I can't 807 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 7: think of anything I mean we would improvise every now 808 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 7: and then, with like the encouragement of Filoni, Like he 809 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 7: would sometimes be like yeah, like if that doesn't feel right, 810 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 7: go for it. Or at the end, Steve was Steve 811 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,280 Speaker 7: was very famous for putting uh, we'll say, buttons on scenes, 812 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 7: and so that didn't make it in. But I don't 813 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 7: know of anything that was cut to you guys, no, 814 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 7: I mean. 815 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, what you're saying, like Steve's embellishments, let's call them. 816 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 5: Those would not always make it, but they were just 817 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 5: I mean mostly he was just doing that to be 818 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 5: funny and to make us laugh, which always always worked. 819 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't think he had any intention or 820 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 5: expectation that those things were going to make it to 821 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 5: the final cut. But no, I think I think everything 822 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 5: that was scripted was we recorded and was used. Like 823 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 5: there was no fluff, There was no like extra stuff. 824 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 5: It's not like shooting a show or a film where 825 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 5: you're shooting a lot and then it gets cut down 826 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 5: in the editing room. I feel like what was written, 827 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 5: we recorded, and that ended up in the final cut. 828 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 829 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: I can't think of a single thing that wasn't in 830 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: the final I think it was all very I mean, 831 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't believe there was anything cut. 832 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, testament to the writers and everything. They knew what 833 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,240 Speaker 7: they were gonna do the whole time. Although to that question, 834 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 7: we did go back in like record, we would pick 835 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 7: stuff up, so we would do our recording session, and 836 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 7: then they would send it off to animate it. Because 837 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 7: they didn't animate it before, they would have like cameras 838 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 7: on it, so they would send it to get animated, 839 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 7: and what two months. 840 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 4: Later from our original cord maybe or three. 841 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 7: Months we would do a pick up on that episode 842 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 7: and say, say the dialogue, we were closer in the 843 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 7: frame than they initially thought. We might like quiet it 844 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 7: down or say something was sped up and they needed 845 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 7: to move on to the next frame. We would do 846 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 7: little adjustments there, but I don't remember anything being cut. 847 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's it. You've just reminded me of that 848 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 5: that like, oh, actually he's falling, so we're going to 849 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 5: need Ezra to get falling as he screams this line, 850 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,360 Speaker 5: rather than when we you know, initially did it and 851 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 5: we thought that the two people were in the room 852 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 5: or whatever. So yeah, they were like tweaks and adjustments made, 853 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 5: but nothing cut. I can't remember. 854 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 3: All right. 855 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 2: Next one is from Victoria Taylor.

I'm going to turn and 883 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 7: sort of sprint the other way as quickly as possible. 884 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 7: So that feels like Ezra in a bit of a nutshell. 885 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 5: I was going to say the word I mean, not 886 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,279 Speaker 5: that you're the question isn't for other people to talk 887 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 5: about it, but irreverence comes to mind, and like and 888 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 5: like cockiness is such a has such a negative No, no, no, 889 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 5: I'm saying it has such a negative connotation. But sort 890 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 5: of like, gosh, what's a what's a positive word? That 891 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 5: a synonym for coult? 892 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 4: What comfortability? 893 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 5: No, just sort of like a like a like a 894 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 5: confident or like knowing oneself and like a confident an 895 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 5: ease and confidence in yourself and like not needing to 896 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 5: sort of like I think I'm just echoing what you 897 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 5: just said. You don't need to like be something else 898 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 5: to please another person, like you are you and I 899 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 5: feel like that's that's so Ezra, right, Like Ezra's just Ezra, 900 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 5: and he's going to be Ezra in any situation. He 901 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,240 Speaker 5: doesn't sort of conform to others expectations. 902 00:46:58,320 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 4: I don't know. 903 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 5: Does that sound right to the the rest of you? 904 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 5: Vanessa does that? 905 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 3: Yeah? 906 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 1: That sounds completely right. He's one hundred percent Jedi all day, 907 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 1: all day. Yeah, that's been my experience as I've gotten 908 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: to know you, Taylor. You have a wisdom that is 909 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: so impressive. And I think I sent you a text 910 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: the other day thank you for being so solid. 911 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 3: That's what you are. 912 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:18,360 Speaker 1: You're solid. 913 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 3: You know. 914 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 4: I appreciate this, guys. I should have made answer you. 915 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 3: Guys. 916 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 4: I thought it was about everyone in their care. 917 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 1: It was. 918 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 5: It was we went off on a tangent. 919 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I definitely I'm Space mom. 920 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 1: And originally Harah hadn't birthed anything, so she was, you know, 921 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: very nurturing without having had any children. So I suppose 922 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm I'm Harah episodes or Sorry, Seasons one through three 923 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,400 Speaker 1: as someone who does not have actual children. But I 924 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: do love making sure that everyone is okay. I think 925 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 1: Harah has all the best parts of me, and I 926 00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 1: have a few that I would like to just be 927 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: only like Haraa. You know, my humanity sometimes drives me crazy, 928 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: and I always think to myself sometimes what would Freddie do? 929 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 1: But also, you know, because that guy please Lebron. But 930 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: I definitely I can sometimes be sensitive or overthink things. 931 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: And that's what I really learned from Harah is her 932 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 1: ability to prioritize, to. 933 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 3: Stay focused and not let. 934 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:28,839 Speaker 1: The small things, you know, get her sidetracked, including her 935 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 1: relationship with Canaan. But but anyway, yeah, I feel like 936 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: that those are the best parts of me, and I 937 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 1: brought those to the microphone and I try to linger 938 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: in that place. And sometimes it takes extra remembering or 939 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 1: even forgetting to just let the best parts, you know, 940 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 1: push me through the day as opposed to you know, 941 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: human fears. And I think we all deal with that. 942 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: But yeah, there's one actor, Rob Paulson, who every time 943 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: he steps up to the microphone, he says a prayer 944 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,360 Speaker 1: to get out of well, he said, excuse me to 945 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 1: get out of God's way. What he meant was his 946 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 1: God given talent for atheists in the room, you know, whatever, 947 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: that is his highest self. But I think there's something 948 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 1: to be said for getting the ego out of things 949 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: and just being of service. So I love that Harah 950 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 1: so effortlessly does that, and I admire it and hope 951 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 1: to do more of the same. 952 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:34,240 Speaker 5: It's so easy for me to I think it's harder 953 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 5: for me to like find the or maybe yeah, like 954 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 5: to recognize the things that are similar in Sabine and myself. 955 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 5: But it's so easy for me to like look at 956 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 5: each of you because we know each other so well 957 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 5: and have for such a long time. The you that 958 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 5: you bring to Hara and the you Taylor that you 959 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 5: bring to Ezra, and that you guys are I mean 960 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 5: truly like if we plopped each of you, Vanessa Marshall 961 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,800 Speaker 5: and Taylor Gray into these situations, just plopped you on Lothal, 962 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 5: you would be as and you would be Haarah. And 963 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 5: same goes certainly for Freddy. But oddly enough to you 964 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 5: thinks that that's that that is like high praise to 965 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 5: me because I just think Sabine is the coolest and 966 00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 5: just the radest chick on the in the galaxy, I suppose, 967 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,319 Speaker 5: And so I mean, I guess I would say like 968 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 5: for better or worse like she I I uh, you know, 969 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 5: am pretty sort of passionate about and and and the 970 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 5: for better or for worse was I was going to 971 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 5: say and outspoken about things that I care about. If 972 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 5: any of you follow me on social media, you probably 973 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 5: know this already, much to my agent's dismay and chagrin. 974 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:02,760 Speaker 5: I you know, I like feel that there are things 975 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 5: that are too important to sort of like sit on 976 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 5: the sidelines for. And whether that costs me followers or fans, 977 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 5: I just think that, like, there are things that I 978 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:15,840 Speaker 5: feel so strongly about that I feel like me to 979 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 5: be discussed or a light should be shown on them. 980 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:20,839 Speaker 4: And so. 981 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 5: I guess I feel that maybe Sabina and I have 982 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 5: that in common. It's like a I guess, a desire 983 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 5: for justice in the world. And so, but I will 984 00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 5: say where we diverge is that she is way cooler 985 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 5: than me. And I remember, just like for I remember vividly, 986 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 5: you know, Dave gave us such such freedom to sort 987 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 5: of like do what we wanted, and he very rarely, 988 00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 5: I mean, there would be notes and some adjustments, and 989 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 5: a lot of times that would be for like okay, 990 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 5: just you know, don't forget you're in a cave. And 991 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 5: so you guys are pretty far apart, like you're gonna 992 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 5: like that, just like logistical things and and but a 993 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 5: lot of times with performance he really gave us like 994 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 5: a lot of leeway and and let us kind of 995 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 5: bring our thoughts and our emotions to that to the 996 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 5: performance aspect. But I will say that a note that 997 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 5: I would often get was a gentle less tea more Sabine. 998 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:30,359 Speaker 5: He would say less Sabine, and I immediately knew, oh right, 999 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 5: don't be such a goober, be cooler. 1000 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 7: I won't say this too often, but I don't think 1001 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 7: that's true. I think you you're right there. 1002 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 5: Thank you, guys, Taylor said something nice to me. 1003 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 2: Well we kind of recorded too, so there's we got 1004 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,759 Speaker 2: that eternal receipt now because like this is double backed up, 1005 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 2: it's going to be in the cloud.

It was so many 1012 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:25,400 Speaker 6: people that you, guys, unplanned spontaneously just became those characters 1013 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 6: to so many people out there. It was like, you know, 1014 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 6: season five point one for people. So I think definitely 1015 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 6: that is represented in this podcast. 1016 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 5: Well I love that.

I would love to see you because the 1027 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 2: first thought I was like, this is totally like another 1028 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 2: bonus episode of Rebels, not just our podcast. So there's 1029 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:15,960 Speaker 2: somebody out there because I've seen it. 1030 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:19,399 Speaker 7: Has to end with a lightsaber just fully going through 1031 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 7: it all right, No. 1032 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 2: True Lucas Fashion will have a bit of a cliffhanger, 1033 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 2: you know, we'll let it will let people decide from there, 1034 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 2: just like at the end of Rocky three. You know, 1035 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 2: maybe it turns into oil painting and we don't know 1036 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,760 Speaker 2: even though they revealed it in Creed, but that's beside 1037 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 2: the point. It's not even though it happened, but here it. 1038 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:42,200 Speaker 2: So this next one is an interesting question, and it 1039 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 2: may fall more into Jac's territory because this person's going 1040 00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:47,279 Speaker 2: more into like the fan theory. But I'm sure you 1041 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 2: all will have uh. I know you all will have 1042 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 2: thoughts on it. I just know Jac will know the 1043 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 2: rich history of it. Hi, my name is Leon l I. 1044 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 2: I I'm sorry, and I apologize anybody's name if I 1045 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 2: sound like Principal Garvey and Peel because we're anouncing your name. 1046 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 2: It may happen Lean with an N, or maybe it's 1047 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 2: Liam Neeson in disguise. He doesn't want us to know. 1048 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 2: He's like, oh, I will very particular set of skills, 1049 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 2: and I want to ask you. I wanted to say 1050 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,399 Speaker 2: that I really loved the voice acting and the work 1051 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 2: behind the series since it was so good. Also, I 1052 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 2: had sort of a fan theory question, which were which 1053 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 2: is were Canaan and Ezra Jedies or were they more 1054 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 2: Gray Jedies. Now real quick for those who may not 1055 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 2: be as well versed or maybe unfamiliar, if you look 1056 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,719 Speaker 2: at the Jedi. They're very much like the samurai in 1057 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 2: Japanese culture. That's with the Jedi. They're part of the 1058 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 2: established order, where a gray Jedi is somebody who's been 1059 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 2: through all the levels you would have to do to 1060 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 2: achieve the level of Jedi, but not part of the 1061 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 2: Jedi council and samurai code that you call Ronan's, so 1062 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:49,719 Speaker 2: that the gray Jedi is like the Ronans. So I 1063 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 2: guess the question is, were canaan As are Jedies in 1064 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,960 Speaker 2: the traditional sense or were they more gray Jedies. 1065 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 7: I'm going to use my phone a friend on who 1066 00:55:58,080 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 7: wants to be a millionaire and pass funcation. 1067 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:04,760 Speaker 6: See, this is where I'm going to lose the audience. 1068 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 6: So I apologize, but I will say Taylor could be 1069 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,720 Speaker 6: a great Jedi because his name is Taylor Gray. 1070 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 3: I don't buy into grade Jedi. 1071 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 6: I think if you ask George Lucas, he would say 1072 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,880 Speaker 6: you are either a Jedi and you live by those ideals, 1073 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 6: or you are not. There's not a I think finding 1074 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,880 Speaker 6: a middle ground there and calling it grade Jedi instead 1075 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 6: of light and dark is runs against the good guys 1076 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 6: wear white, bad guys wear black of the original intent 1077 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 6: of Star Wars through the first you know, six movies. 1078 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,920 Speaker 6: So I'm going to say, and I'm sorry to everybody 1079 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 6: out there who loves grade Jedi, I am not a 1080 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 6: great Jedi guy. I don't believe in grade Jedi. I 1081 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 6: think that Taylor or sorry. So there we go, right, 1082 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 6: and are I think that they are Jedi? You know, 1083 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 6: you look at the history that we've gotten, especially for 1084 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 6: Canaan through other tales of the Jedi and things like that, 1085 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 6: and he got as much or more training than Luke Skywalker. 1086 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 6: Did you know? The way that he chose to present 1087 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 6: being a Jedi was no more reckless or selfish or 1088 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 6: anything than Luke's path to becoming a Jedi, especially if 1089 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 6: you consider. 1090 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 3: The sequel trilogy. 1091 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 6: You know, and he took again Ezra was probably too 1092 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:45,200 Speaker 6: old to begin the training, but he took Ezra under 1093 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 6: his wing and started training him in the same way 1094 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 6: that Luke was. 1095 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 3: So no, I think that their actual Jedi. 1096 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 6: I don't think you need to qualify it by being 1097 00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 6: a half Jedi. I think they're full fledged Jedi. Maybe 1098 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 6: not Jedi nights because they weren't dubbed so by Yoda 1099 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 6: or somebody like that. I'm not sure how that ceremony happens. 1100 00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 6: They didn't go through maybe the trials, but by in 1101 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 6: the in the post and the post Republic era, I 1102 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 6: think they fully qualify as a Jedi. If Luke Skywalker 1103 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 6: is a Jedi. 1104 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 4: If the question was are they Jedi, they're Jedi. 1105 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, so Liam Neeson, if that was you, uh, you 1106 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:34,960 Speaker 2: have your answer, like all right.
