It's Star Wars Week and Matt is back with us for Episode One: The Phantom Menace, as we attempt to wrap our minds arou- MISA CALLED JAR-JAR BINKS!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH! In a galaxy far far away, our hosts are annoyed by half the characters in this universe and confused how the hell such good plot points got overpowered by. . . THAT. What we wanted: nature vs. nurture, where Leia got her personality, and the early signs that the Republic will fall. What we got: random and unnecessary immaculate conception, bureaucratic jargon regarding taxation mandates and embargo treaties (no taxation without representation!), and mediclor- *we interrupt this description to say that Brennan has been assassinated by nerdy bounty hunters*. 

While we send a Galactic Senate inquiry to investigate the validity of these claims, Erin and Matt call for a vote of high confidence that the lightsaber duel is totally sick! Duel of the Fates, anyone?
