The first teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens has been released and, as you’d imagine, Lars Periwinkle has some thoughts on it. He and Joel Murphy break down the trailer this week.

They also discuss DMX’s bafflingly homoerotic lyrics, the cavalier whitewashing of Hollywood films and why you shouldn’t do Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” for karaoke.

What is the most ridiculous lyric DMX ever wrote? Is there any way the trailer could have failed to get Lars excited for the new Star Wars? What’s the point of the little red pointy things on the side of the villain’s lightsaber? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “I’d Rather Be Naughty” by A Don’t Hug Me Christmas Carol
