Summary
There has been an awakening! And you couldn't have felt it because it comes out of NOWHERE!
This week, Nando DJ and best friend of the show Chris Diggins assemble for the last Star Wars thing for at least a year or two and nitpick the ninth film in the Skywalker Saga, Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker.
They nitpick the wayfinders, the horses, the retcons, the star destroyers, the daggers, and of course the Knights of Ren.

| 0:09.3 | I am Nando. |
| 0:10.7 | And I'm DJ. |
| 0:12.4 | And this is mostly nitpicking a podcast where every week we pick apart a piece of pop culture by looking exclusively at the details. |
| 0:18.6 | Woohoo. |
| 0:20.1 | This week. |
| 0:21.3 | The culmination of an epic, epic, epic two-part series, DJ. |
| 0:26.7 | The finally, the final, the saga concludes. |
| 0:30.3 | It's over. |
| 0:31.6 | This massive two-podcast saga. |
| 0:33.8 | It feels like it's been going on for 40 years with gigantic breaks in the middle. |
| 0:37.8 | So really, is it even a nine-part trilogy? Not really. Not really. No. No, no, no, no. No. |

| 0:51.9 | I love everything you guys are doing. And I have feelings about the last |
| 0:55.2 | Skywalker, Rise of the Skywalker. So I want you guys to talk about it. And we said, well, as much as we |
| 1:02.2 | wanted to talk about little women, which DJ and I prepared for it, the last minute, we said, |
| 1:07.2 | well, I guess we'll talk about Star Wars, the Phantom Menace, colon, rise of Skywalker. |
| 1:12.8 | What if they just named another one, the Phantom Menace, Stantemanis 2? |
| 1:16.1 | It's nothing to do with anything else, but it's just like, it's another Phantom, and he's menacing again. |
| 1:21.7 | That's a sick title. |
| 1:22.9 | So we're going to call this one Phantom Menace 2. |
| 1:24.5 | Well, I think given Disney's propensity for just rebooting old series, not like remaking, like the Lion King and Moulon and Aladdin, they'll probably just redo episodes four, five, and six, and then one, two, and three, and then 70 and nine. That'd be great. They'll just do them all over again. Why don't they start backwards? They start with nine, redo that, and then they go eight, seven, whatever, whatever. It doesn't really matter.
