Episode Summary
Chris introduced the cohosts adding Star Wars nickames to the introductions, then the show lead into Tim’s 3 facts presentation.

The 3 facts were


 * 1) Momaw Nadon was an Ithorian.
 * 2) Screen used Hammerhead was not a costume, it was a puppet.
 * 3) In the character design notes, it was mentioned that Momaw Nadon’s religion was based on tying and untying knots.

There was a discussion about the design of the Kenner action figure versus the actually look of the character in the movie. Tim told the story of how Hammerhead was the first Star Wars action figure we owned. This lead into further discussion about action figure memories and questions about the character naming during the Kenner line run.

Matt told the story about finding out about the original Clone Wars micro series and what he did to watch it.
