Welcome to the May 2022 episode of A More Civilized Q&A. We're tackling your questions on A Friend in Need and the Obi-wan Undercover Arc (AMCA episodes 34 + 35) and NOT anything after, whoops. This month's topics include Jedi funding, all sorts of relationships (sith! clones!! secret marriages!!! bad puppy love!!!! queen simping!!!!!), and food & entertainment in the Star Wars universe. 

Thanks as always for your support! Just to clarify again, the next main feed AMCA episode will cover Clone Wars episodes Massacre and Bounty while the next Q&A will cover the rest of season 4 plus the first episode of season 5! Also, keep an eye on your feed, because we'll finally be reading and discussing Dooku: Jedi Lost some time in June!

That's Jack de Quidt, I think. He's great!

Coreyyy

oh it for sure is. And Ive asked before to let me pay for a full version of this track but to no avail. tho, I havent checked Jacks bandcamp in a while. maybe its on there?

Ubisoft must have been listening to the questions about food and media in Star Wars with how Outlaws includes Kay and Nix sharing meals in lavish display, and how one of the collectibles is snippets of in-universe holodramas

I think the truth of the Jedi rules against attachment is the same as (as I understand it) the Catholic Church, where the actual reason is just practical, to prevent popes and priests from founding hereditary dynasties, maybe that's something the Senate did to the Jedi or the Jedi did to themselves as a rebuke of the Sith's eugenicist focus on bloodlines

Verdigree

I think if Anakin and Obi-Wan had been swapped in those two arcs, Obi-Wan goes James Bond and we see the ice-cold heart of a Jedi up close, he effortlessly seduces and assasinates the queen himself and it's fine because he's not EMOTIONAL

I know it'll happen eventually if this podcast keeps going, but I loved hearing you all talk about Rise of Skywalker at the end of this episode and can't wait to hear y'all tear into the sequels.

Thomas Hansen

I'm very amused by Rob referencing 'Radioland Murders' in a way where I can't even tell if he actually remembers that it's a George Lucas movie.

Patrick Kay

It's interesting to hear Austin say he'd hate to "make sense" of TROS, because I'd jump on that assignment in a heartbeat. As screwed up as that movie is, it has threads I think a good writer can pull on...sort of like AOTC's relationship with the Clone Wars...

Ereg

IIRC, the place Obi Wan met Sleazebaggano in was kind of a sports bar.

Solomon Mars

Hm. Sounds like the AMCA gang should read the canon book Master and Apprentice by Claudia Gray. There are some fun and in depth answers to some of the discussion that went on in this episode.

Kzinssie

Hearing y'all discuss entertainment in the Star Wars universe has me desperately wanting to hear y'all discuss the Holiday Special

Turtleperch

That yellow jello-like thing really looks like Quindim. A coconut and egg yolk sweet, we eat here in Brazil. Quite tasty.

Rick R.

Sideous getting mad is prescient.

Coreyyy

This is the most of the intro music Ive heard in one go uninterrupted I think and wow its top tier stuff.
