138: Clone Wars – Season 2 Episode 12 – The Mandalore Plot

Today, we discuss the plot of Mandalore…or something like that. Out Yum nub. Hello and welcome to ucast here, star Wars Cartoon podcast. My name is Matt, and weapons are part of my religion. Similar thoughts. Uh, my name’s Jamie and maybe the dark Saber belongs in someone else’s hands. Nice. I wonder what, wonder what today’s episode is. Yes. Yeah. So today we’re doing, we’re, this is episode 136 of, um, Ucast, uh, and we’re doing Clone Wars still. We’re doing season two, episode 12, the Manalo plot. So we get to go to Manalo for the first time, I think, ever. Mm-hmm. And its original error date was January 29th. 2010. And even though this is not gonna go up for several weeks, because I’m way behind on posting these episodes, but we’ll post one, we’ll have a bunch coming out in December of 2024. Um, we were one day before skeleton crew. Yay. Yay. And so we, I figured we talked about this over text a little bit, but we got a care package from the official Star Wars, um, social media account or, or Star Wars I guess, um, that had a bunch of promotional material from um, skeleton crew in it. And like I said, this is gonna go up several weeks after skeleton crew comes out. But it was sent, it was sent to me ’cause I gave them my address. ’cause I’m selfish. Um, yeah, I in, I’m in witness relocation. Yeah, his name is Thompson. I think he’s talking to you. You, this is, this is neither here nor there, but I might cut this out, but the other day, um, my wife and I were going someplace and she was basically wearing this velure, like, like house suit, like, looks like nice pajamas, right? Mm-hmm. It could be easily mistaken for like a tracksuit or something. Yeah. My wife used to have one of those. Yeah. And so we were, we were gonna, we had to run someplace real quick and we had actually go to my lab and she was gonna go with me and she’s like, I’m not wearing a bra. Is that okay? And I was like, well, if you’re run into some federal breast inspectors, you’ll have to explain to them. So then we made jokes about the FBI, the entire way to the lab anyway. Um, I don’t know why I said that. So we have this sting, we got this. Oh, because you’re in the witness relocation program. That’s right. That’s an FBI program. Anyway, the, go ahead. I, uh, I thought it was US Marshals. Yeah, it was US Marshals. Thank you. Can’t, can’t let, can’t let law enforcement petry get past us. Yes. Um, so anyway, we have this package and I thought we could go over the contents of the package and, um, decide what I needed to ship you to make Ucast whole again, because I don’t want any, I don’t want any accusations that I am hoarding the, uh, the stuff. Mm-hmm. Um, I sent you photos of everything, but we could run it down, run it down for everybody. What, what was in this package? Um, and this, this was totally random, not anything I expected. Um, we just, they reached out to us through our Twitter account and it was a link to a Google Doc form, and it asked us for a shipping address and some information about our podcast. It was a form, so this was sent into presumably a lot of people. Um, and then a few days later, I got a package, a really nondescript package. Didn’t say Lucasville monitor or anything, but I opened it up and there was a paper envelope about the size of like one of those legal manila envelopes, and it had the word Star Wars skeleton crew on the outside Disney Plus. And it had the, uh, the pirate droid sort of in a Jolly Rogers style flag. On the, on the envelope. So it looked like a skull with two bones underneath it, except instead of bones, there was like, tools looked like a blaster and maybe a wrench. Mm-hmm. It possibly could be its arms. I don’t know. So anyway, I opened that up and then I sent you photos of everything that was inside. Um, the first thing is there’s a gigantic flag and it is a Jolly Roger flag with that same logo, a droid head pirate, droid head with a patch eye, and then two arms or blaster and wrench beneath it with t
