This is a HeadGum podcast.

Matt, I am super, super excited to do this episode on the history of Star Wars video games,

but I've just gotten a sort of email from corporate and we cannot

Corporate and well we can't we cannot use these suits these headgum suits makes me

The headgum suits are they're tough they're tough but they're just trying to keep the business and what they've told me is we cannot use

any of the Star Wars sound effects in this episode or we will be fined many many many many

thousands of dollars.

I know that this is the premiere video game podcast. many many many thousands of dollars. We can't.

I know that this is the premiere video game podcast.

I know that that to our listeners probably sounds like such a little amount of money.

We cannot take that hit.

Yeah, we can't take that hit right now. That's too much money. But you know we're we're going to be doing a lot of talking so

So my hope is here's what we could do. Obviously there's going to be blasters.

Obviously there's going to be lightsabers.

Obviously there's going to be, you know, the sound of X-wings and Thai fighters screaming through the air.

I'm just going to need you to lay down a little

Foley for what we can use instead of those sounds. Absolutely.

Those iconic Star Wars sounds. So can you give me, how about three options for blasters? Okay.

Pune pune pune pune. Pune. Those are great. Those are great and

honestly much better than I expected.

I want this to work.

Oh I do too.
