Another great ep of the Gleep Glossary, and what a great song to end on.

I distinctly remember reading some illustrated guide to characters as a kid, and it said the rodian friend Anakin had in Phantom Menace was NOT Greedo but some other rodian.

Gonna look up the official canon rn

Okay official canon right now is that the child Rodian WAS Greedo, okay

It comes up in a deleted scene. The Rodian kid is fighting another kid, and someone breaks it up, saying something like, “You better watch out Greedo, or you’ll meet a messy end.” Somehow either George Lucas had a rare moment of restraint, or someone talked him out of keeping that terrible moment in. Since it’s a deleted scene, it’s not canon, but there’s no reason he can’t be Greedo, I guess.

Wasn't Anakin the kid he fought?

The prequels are just as canon as you want them to be, because All the movies are works of fiction and the events didn't actually happen

Apparently media can't just be something that you didn't love wholeheartedly anymore. If it doesn't spark joy in you, you've got to sign a petition demanding that someone spend several hundred million dollars to make your fan edit instead. Also there's got to be some idiotic talk about expectation subversion either being too much or not enough.

Because as we all know fan films are always fantastic and never dumber than the dumbest poo poo the industry churns out.

Just now had the time to catch up with this months patreon episode , " Serinity" , and it quickly became one of my all time favorites. There is a particular 10 minutes stretch in the middle when they all do non stop impersonations of Jason Clarke character explaining how he is history greatest monster that absolutely killed me .

Yeah, I thought something was wrong and it had jumped to something else. I get they need ads, they need to make money, I subscribe to the patreon, fully support them, yada yada. But this really threw me. They're usually more subtle in their transition than that.

Most podcasts I listen to that have ads will have a music intro/outro like they did before. I wonder if Headgum made them stop doing that.

Weird indeed. It really was jarring. The guys were talking, and then, with no warning, a woman was talking about some game where you are sent murder photos and details and you try to solve it? I was confused so I didn't really catch most of the details. No music intro, outro, or in the background.

Just to make sure, you've finished the episode, right? Or at least halfway through? This was in the first half, but not right at the beginning. Like, it was while they were well into talking about the episode.

The same sort of ad happened to me last week. Just very suddenly cut to a guy talking about...something, I didn't pay attention (so good going, ad); but i seriously thought I had hit skip on my phone and this was an ad at the front of a different podcast that was about to start.

If you're using a third party app for podcasts, they likely inject their own ads in addition to any ads built into the episode.

Overcast for sure does not do that, unless they literally started today. I’ve been using it for years.

Yeah, I use Pocket Casts and they never do that. Maybe if you're using a lovely free 3rd party podcast app, they'd do something like that, but I've never experienced that in any of the paid podcast apps I've ever used.
