Evan BevinsGUEST
85:51
gasp because I mean the saga begins I'll let you guys talk about how amazing it is and we'll probably talk about it a lot more but confessions part I think I've heard confessions part two maybe once or twice instead of like making this about food or something unrelated Weird Al listened to that song I was like let's just keep it going one of the worst things I have one of the worst lyrics I have ever heard uttered in music, is Usher complaining about, look, me telling you I got this girl pregnant, this is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
Evan BevinsGUEST
86:27
I hope you can appreciate that I'm man enough to tell you the truth.
RockyHOST

Started the whole conversation.

Yeah, one day we'll discuss the genius that is fucking Weird Al within the realm of Star Wars with songs like Yoda and The Saga Begins.
RockyHOST
95:19
The motherfucker has delivered his fucking Star Wars cred.
MarsHOST

14 MINS LATER

BradHOST
18:35
Bounty hunters, stormtroopers, snowtroopers, and even Darth Vader.
BradHOST
18:41
And then Weird Al led the crowd into the We All Have Cell Phones spoof, which again came from that Michael Stipe interview.
BradHOST
18:51
And then he closed the set, The Saga Begins, which is American Pie by Don McLean, and Yoda, a parody of Lola by the Kinks.
BradHOST
19:01
But that ended with a serious, and I guess I'm just going to call it scatting, with some percussion.
Lieutenant EricHOST
24:15
Barry the Cheater in the Paris Jewelers inbox.
Lieutenant EricHOST
24:17
He didn't play the Jurassic Park song, the Encore Yoda and the Saga Begins were amazing, but no Jurassic Park song.
Lieutenant EricHOST
24:22
But the show was absolutely amazing.
Lieutenant EricHOST
24:25
I have a problem with his song Yoda, actually.
EricHOST

CK-1HOST
34:22
That would have been incredible.
CK-1HOST
34:23
And then the crowd loved when he did The Saga Begins, which I hate so much.
AK-47HOST
34:30
You were like kind of cowered down in your seat when that one came on.
AK-47HOST
34:33
I was like,
CK-1HOST
34:34
what? So this is my opinion.
CK-1HOST
34:50
The saga begins, it's a long, now it's not as long as the actual American Pie song, but still, he doesn't really make that many quips about the plot to one of the worst blockbuster movies of all time, The Phantom Menace.
CK-1HOST
35:06
He just goes through the plot of the movie.
CK-1HOST
35:09
So because I hate the prequels and I hate American Pie, but he made up for it because it flowed into Yoda.
