(We Need To Talk About Dash Rendar is our mirror-universe podcast, about a different franchise. We don’t know why they picked that name.)
Bad morning to you, our evil listeners! In this episode of We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar, hosts Cammy and Baja Blast read Star Wars: Book One, which collects The Glove Of Darth Vader, The Lost City of the Jedi, and Zorba The Hutt's Revenge. They're even dumber than those titles suggest. There's a whale vacuum! We had a lot of fun. These books sucked very bad. A real ”sure whatever who gives a shit, let Peggle 2 make calls” of a series.
Topics of discussion include: Batman Black, The Social Network, names for babies with three eyes, Tom Bombadil singing Oompa Loompa songs, Archie Goodwin's naming conventions, Corky Baxter, Porgie Tirebiter, laser pistol earrings, Grand Admiral Grunger, Monzaemon, Doonium the baby Phobium, Snoke Loroan, Timothy Leary, A Canticle for Leibowitz
