Episode 172: Is this the best Star Wars? Yes?
“Good afternoon! Or morning. Or possibly the crack between the two—time’s funny like that. Anyway—HELLO! And welcome back to The Not Funny Guys Present: Off the Reels—the internet’s number one podcast about public libraries… with books… on forgotten classified military missions. Proper hush-hush. Secret stuff. Probably guarded by people in unnecessarily big hats. Love a big hat.
Right! This is episode one hundred and seventy-two. One. Seven. Two. Which, coincidentally, is also the exact number of jelly babies you can fit in the TARDIS console. (Don’t ask me how I know that. I… just do.)
And today—ohhh today—we are talking about one of the best Star Wars films in years. Years and years and possibly parsecs. The first truly grown-up Star War. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. A film that proves Star Wars can make you cry. Me! Crying! Actual tears on my fez. Fezzes are cool. Damp fezzes… less so.
And here we are, your favourite ne’er-do-wells, the Not Funny Guys. I’m Casey—your resident snarky droid—and I’m joined, as always, by my two co-conspirators: Dr. Jon—he’s one with the Force and the Force is with him, which sounds exhausting but looks impressive—and Eric, our quiet-quitting, sabotage-plotting, cunning engineer. Honestly, if he ever builds a Death Star, we are doomed.
Together, we are the Not Funny Guys.
And now, gentlemen… it’s that time again. The time when we gather to talk about everything and nothing and possibly space ferrets. Do space ferrets exist? Must check. Later. Right now—focus. It’s time… to be Not Funny!”
