Just want you to be happy, Sam.
Hey guys, and welcome to this week's episode of Plumbing the Death Star, where we ask the
important questions like, what are the consequences of being your own father?
The Boba Fett story.
Alright, so Boba Fett, made famous in the original Star Wars trilogy, the sick bounty
hunter with the mask, ends up in the Sarlacc pit like a fucking idiot.
Got a jetpack.
Got a jetpack.
Got his gun cut in half like a dickhead.
Yep.
That's the guy.
That's the guy we know and love.
His father is revealed to be Jango Fett in the prequel trilogy,
but he's also revealed that Boba Fett's a clone,
so therefore his dad is him.
They're both bounty hunters, but also he's his own dad.
Okay, so Boba Fett, you're a bounty hunter,
your dad is a bounty hunter, and you are your dad?
Yeah, that's it.
Is Jango Fett a clone of Boba Fett? No that's it that's right a clone of boba fett
no boba fett's a clone of jango fett okay and and the clone war warriors are also
the clones of jango fett what i want to know is does jango fett know what's going to happen to
boba fett what no boba fett know what's going to happen to Jango Fett? What? No How do you think clones work?
You don't have one brain
Also just
You've got to copy your brain
Boba Fett is aging at the same rate
As Jango Fett would have aged
Because his other clones are like instant adults
That's another thing
Boba is just a young kid
But then he also watches his father die
Which is sort of like watching your future self die.
It's very confusing.
But if you've not lived the life
that your kid will eventually lead,
then it's just like, whatever, another kid.
Yeah, kind of, except it's 100% you.
Like, their personality would be the same
because it's a clone.
Yeah, their personality is the same,
and also he's training him to be like him.
They even wear similar armor.
They also both die like dickheads.
Doesn't he wear his dad's armor?
He paints it differently. I don't know.
It's never really reviewed. I figured it was his dad's
armor, which is a weird thing to imagine
that young Boba has had to do.
He's had to get the severed head of his father
out of the helmet.
Take it out of the helmet.
Grape out of half a walnut shell.
Clean it out a little.
Give it a, just a hose.
Just a little bit of a hose.
Repaint that.
Wait until you can fit into that helmet.
Then wear that helmet.
How does Jango die?
He gets his head cut off by Mace Windu.
Rough.
Because he has a pistol and decides to take on a fucking Jedi.
Yeah, that's not clever.
Not the smartest.
Also...
And his jetpack's broken at this point, so he can't even fuck off into space.
He has a sick ship, though.
He does.
The Slave I.
Okay.
The big issue with this is, like, what are the, like...
Surely that is very psychologically damaging to someone to be like,
my dad is literally me.
I'm just a younger version of my dad, but not like a...
Before we get into that,
what's the psychological issue of Jango being like,
I want to raise me?
What's all that about?
Also, I want a clone army of me just kicking about the Galactic Empire.
We have to talk about nature versus nurture, don't we?
Yes.
I think this is an appropriate
time for you to bring that in yes thank you guys for the confirmation because will boba fett
experience the same milestones his dad experienced his dad being him
at the same time like jango fett can't expect things from boba fett that he can like he's not like oh this is
gonna happen to him i can deal with that yeah but you but jango fett is a kind of is the kind of man
who figured cloning himself would be a great idea to form an army and also he wants a clone son
you gotta be a fucking cocky son of a bitch i'm guessing like best army of me's i'm guessing
be some joel ducha motherfucker they'll be like the best army is
one comprised of myself yeah so i'm guessing jango would have some very high expectations of boba
absolutely if you didn't live up to your dad's standard your dad would know because your dad
is you yeah so he'd be like i did it the fuck is wrong with you and we're genetically identical
also so let's take away Jango dying.
Wait a second.
All right, go on.
It also depends on how the cloning process works.
Does Boba have Jango's memories?
No.
That would be brutal.
No.
But what about all the ones...
Do the clones have Jango's memories?
What does a clone think it is?
The clones know they're clones.
They call each other clones.
All of them look exactly the same.
And they have like an age sped up a thing.
Pretty much they all age.
Like they grow them in like a,
they're not grown in a pod,
but it's like they grow in a pod
and after like five days are an adult.
But Django requests one that ages.
They have accelerated age.
That's what I was looking for.
Jango requests
a clone of himself that is
a child and will age at the normal rate so he can
raise a son but that son is literally
him. Is Jango infertile
guys? I just always figured
he was not great with women.
I just figured that he was too
fertile and had a lot of free time.
I just figured no woman would love him.
So he's like, what if I just...
I'm never going to get my own kid.
The closest I can get is me.
A baby version of me.
Yeah.
Again, I always assumed that Jango Fett was like an MRA,
sort of like, women are shit, always friendzoning me,
blah, blah, blah.
I'm going to make my own son.
It's going to be great.
So you think Jango raised his son
because he hated women i'm gonna go with a more logical explanation and be like jango is on a
planet that has no humans on it he's got a ship he can fly yeah but like how do you meet women
as a bounty hunter if i wanted to meet women in the stars universe the only place i know to go is
the fucking cantina on On Tatooine.
Actually, yeah, you raise a valid point.
Which one of you are women?
Well, that's what I mean.
On the planet he's on, which name escapes me,
but the clone planet, Jenna something?
No, Kamino?
Kamino?
Kamino?
Kamino.
I think it is Kamino.
Good job, team.
We're probably wrong, guys.
But hey.
Kamino is the home planet of the clones.
Did that have the tall aliens that looked a bit like grey aliens
on it? Yeah. They were kind of babin'.
I was gonna say
they're kind of women.
Yeah, like, Jango could've gone there, if one
was interested. But also, like, can you reproduce
with someone that different? Like, Star Wars doesn't
really tell you. Like, if I wanted to bang a
Twi'lek, I'm sure I probably could,
but if I wanted to have a baby with one...
Are humans
that widespread that Jango
could probably land on a planet and find another
human being? Probably, but have you...
Wasn't he a Mandalorian?
Or was he adopted by Mandalorians?
Mandalorians are pretty much
a bounty hunter race.
Mandalorians are
war heroes, pretty much.
Aren't they like humans, like evolved humans?
Like sort of from the same progenitor?
They're from Mandalore, but something, something.
Something, something.
They're all right.
They're usually known for being angry and guns for hire.
Okie doke.
Just a quick Google.
The Mandalorians were a nomadic group of clan-based people
consisting of members from multiple species and multiple genders.
Okay.
All bound by a common culture.
So Mandalorians, never mind, they are not a species.
There we go.
Irrelevant.
Having a fact check in this episode is weird.
Yeah.
It's wrong!
We usually only find out we're wrong when you guys email us and tell us that we're wrong.
So hey, this is new for us.
So that doesn't matter.
It could just be about finding another human to bang.
But, Jackson, you've been single and then dated someone before.
It's not just like, hey, we're both the same species.
But it might be in a world where there's not that many of me.
But getting back to the bounty hunter, that's the problem.
If you're a bounty hunter, you're always on the move.
There's someone probably going to come after you
because generally a bounty hunter is never like a classic good person you're
always on the you know you're always sort of going from job to job and because it's star wars your
job to job is intergalactic so trying to have raise a family is going to be hard and if you
want to raise a son to like take after you and take your mantle trying to have that discussion
with your missus hey i just want to take him to have some rad bounty hunter adventures with me.
And she's going to be like, no, no, no, no, no.
He's my son.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Like very metal.
Well, you've got to remember that in this.
She would be like, no, don't you dare take my son away.
You are taking a very strange point.
Taking it away like women aren't fun.
I'm not saying women are fun. I'm saying that anyone strange point. It's taken away, like, women aren't fun. I'm not saying women aren't fun.
I'm saying that, like, anyone would be pretty good.
If, say, like, if Em was a bounty hunter and we had a kid
and I'm, like, the home husband and I'm dealing with a kid
and she's like, I want to take him, like, little Joel Jr.
out to bounty hunting, I'm going to be like,
no, this is dangerous.
This person is, like, it's not like they're not aware.
What's your point?
They're dating or married to a bounty hunter
I feel like they're
But I wouldn't put a fucking child in there
You son of a bitch
Oh look my husband he's a nuclear technician
Take your baby to work with him
No it's sort of like
My husband's a career criminal
He murders people
Don't take the baby with him you son of a bitch i'm trying to
say that this person i'm a mafia wife i'll accept that but don't you dare take my child into your
line of work dude have you not seen the godfather it's all about family they fucking love that shit
is my baby don't you take him with you i just think space is too dangerous space is too big
for a baby if michelle was like jackson i'm taking baby, I'd be like, there's so much bad stuff in space.
It's not even like the bounty hunting.
It's just like, look, the baby will die if you take it.
But the baby will die if you leave it with me
because I am incompetent as I am Jackson.
So I guess make a decision.
It's a tough one, but I have faith in you.
I'm going to have a bath.
I will bring my snorkel just in case.
But I think, is it the best way he could have raised a kid?
For Jango Fett specifically?
He could have adopted someone that's not him.
I'm pretty sure there's a lot of orphans in the Star Wars U.
It feels like a rough place to live.
Little Orphan Annie? So many orphans in the Star Wars U. It feels like a rough place to live. Little orphan Annie?
So many orphans.
Little orphan Jedi?
All of them. Just go to the younglings
and be like, hey, you don't have parents anymore.
Give us one.
Or if I go to the parents and be like, hey,
you don't have younglings anymore. Can I adopt you?
I want to raise
a parent.
That's a good business play
Adopt a parent
And Jenga could be like
I'll be your baby
That became confused
I lost myself in that joke somewhere
I think that's probably
The best way Jenga could have done it
Adopt or clone himself
He could have easily knocked up
Somebody
It's too weird because they'll have
basing the fact that
the brain like cloning
an exact copy of a brain
means that you're going
to grow up to have
the same interests.
Yeah.
A hand-me-downs
would be easy.
How good.
If for some reason
you've kept all your
clothes from every age.
And you wanted to
dress as your dad
every single day.
No not clothes
I meant like toys and shit
because you're like
what like your rat
interest would.
I love that you're imagining Boba Fett's ship,
I mean, Jango Fett's ship,
has, like, a crate in the back that's just labelled toys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he's like, hey, Boba.
But then again, I think that's more nurture as well,
not nature, what his interests are.
I don't think the kid's going to be that similar.
I don't think traits are necessarily genetic
Yeah but
It's hard to say because
In real life at Morris you're going to be 50%
Of one of a person
No
Wait what do you mean?
Like of a parent?
It's not like you and your
It's not like we've got like
50% my mum, 50% my dad
And just sort of I'm not like a chimera half half No my mum, 50% my dad and just sort of
I'm not like a chimera half half
No but from DNA yeah that's sort of how it works
DNA
Yeah but I don't know if your interest in shit
is in DNA
It's because it's like 50-50-ish
It's not
50-50 but it's
in a basic
of me sort of knowing what you're talking about but I obviously don't know the specifics of it 50-50, but it's... I know what you mean. I know what you mean. In a basic of me sort of knowing what you're talking about,
but I obviously don't know the specifics of it, 50-50.
Yeah.
We just don't know what would happen if it was 100%.
Well, no, because you're saying we've got 50% of our genes
from each parent, right?
But it's not 50%.
I'm not 50% my dad, 50% my mom.
No, but that's not what it's saying.
This is 100%, not even just like one sperm or one egg
Whatever, this is just literally
Your dad
Yeah, but that doesn't matter
Whatever, it's more nature than anything else
Really
If Jango Fett was
If Boba Fett was raised by wolves
He's not gonna be like
Man, maybe I should take up bounty hunting
He's gonna be like man, maybe I should take up bounty hunting he's going to be like
but then he'll probably go hunting
not for bounties
well
not so wolfish, he's going to be like
I got this
he'll be going for hunting
so that's the hunting part
and hey, he's not doing it for no reason
so I guess that the corpse
that he's going to eat is kind of a
bounty. And like, it's very, you know, yeah,
the corpse is a bounty. What if he was raised
by Gungans, then?
Or fish! Then he'd just
be swimming and having a good time. Probably drowning,
actually. Not having a good time. He'd be dead,
Jackson. He'd be drowned. He just killed a child,
Jackson, you son of a bitch. You drowned a baby. Well done.
Well done. Give me another one. You just killed a child, Jackson. You drowned a baby. Well done. Well done.
Give me another one.
I promise it won't happen again.
Make a decision, Bishop.
So yeah, there's a...
Okay, so that's going from Django's perspective.
Now going from Bubba's perspective.
Bubba's perspective?
Imagine you disappoint...
Bubba.
Bubba.
Bubba.
Bubba.
Bubba.
Bubba?
It's Bubba. Bubba. Bubba. It can be either. Bubba. Bubba. Bubba. Bubba. Boba. Boba. Boba. It's Boba.
Boba.
Boba.
It can be either.
Bopper.
Boba Fett.
The big Bopper Fett.
Yes.
Yeah.
I don't even know now.
Buddy Fett.
My Buddy Fett.
Bubble Fett.
Bubble Fett.
Yeah.
Bubble Fett.
Imagine you're disappointed in your dad like the way you see him die like a piece of shit.
You're just like like that's me
that is
my reflex is shit
well I guess it would depend on what your dad
kind of instilled in you
if like say my dad was me
well more I was my dad
yes your little
little John
little Johnny boy
and he's like look Jackson
you're gonna grow up
and you gotta be me. Alright, so I'm gonna teach you to
chop wood. I'm gonna teach you to
love having chickens.
I'm gonna teach you what different vegetables are.
It's gonna be the greatest.
And then I didn't kind of fulfill that.
Well, yeah, I'd feel like shit, but if Dad was like,
oh, no, Jack, well, you're the same DNA,
but do what you like.
Yeah, but that's your dad. I don't think Django's gonna be like, oh, whatever, but do what you like. Yeah, but that's your dad.
I don't think Django is going to be like,
oh, whatever, Bob, I'll do what you want.
He's going to be like, bubble.
Fet, greatest Bernie Hunter.
Bubble.
Use veggies.
Raise a chicken on Slave 1.
I've got my box of toys.
Join me and my chickens.
John O'Fett.
Good time.
Yeah, I guess Django Fett seems like the kind of guy
that would be like
if you aren't as good
as I am
but your brain is literally
exactly the same
so I feel like
that if you were motivated
to do any of the things
that your dad wanted you to do
you would end up being
exactly the same
like if your dad was like
hey chop this wood
raise these chickens
you're capable
of doing that
yeah but I didn't
I don't say you might have
a passion for it for that like you might have that sort but I didn't have the same training my dad did
for that like you might have
that sort of
I don't know how much your brain controls
and how much external
Boba Fett the wolf guys
but from
yeah Boba Fett
is he obligated to then
continue his dad's line of work if django says
he is yeah because he does become a bounty hunter he's like my dad died i'm not only going to become
a bounty hunter but as as i said he's going to like you know pry pry out his dad's skull
wash out the helmet and use his same armor but does do we get an idea of what Jango Fett's parenting is like?
Ever? In the films?
The first, when you get introduced to Boba Fett,
he's hiding in a wardrobe because he's scared
because there's a stranger in his house.
Has Jango been fucking off in space?
Yeah, because at the start of the film you see Jango kill a lady.
But Jango Fett's not really... they're raising the kid.
Yeah, it seems like he's sort of...
Who's raising the kid?
Robots?
Nah, the blokes on Kimono?
Kimono.
The blokes on Kimono.
Jango and I
little rooper?
Kick in the fucking
footy, mate?
So Jango Fett
not a great dad
is what I'm getting at here.
Not a great dad.
So why does he want a kid?
Or that was his
retirement plan?
Was his plan to like
get money from getting the clones
Take Bubba
Raise him
What was his plan?
If he's not there for the kid's life
Surely he's being paid to be cloned
Oh he's being paid a fuck ton
So let's just take away the fact that Jango died
Let's see what Jango was wanting to do
Because he would have gotten paid a fuck ton of credits
For getting the clone army
Also a fuck ton of credits for being a clone army. Also a fuck ton of credits
for being a bounty hunter
because I feel like
being a bounty hunter
in the outer rim
is like dime a dozen.
Also being such a renowned
bounty hunter
that people are going to be like
cloning of him,
good idea.
Like a bounty hunter
that is killing people
on Coruscant
where the fucking Jedi's are.
Also balls on that Jango.
Yeah, that's a big old sack
on our boy Jango.
Quite the scrote.
So he's got a lot of money from bounty hunting.
Let's just say he's then got a huge payoff
from Kimono, the Jedi Council, or whatever.
The Kimono Dragons.
The Kimono Dragons.
Yeah, yeah.
Dealing with all that.
Huge sack.
Because how does he eventually fight the jedi again what goes on there
his own well okay so what happens is at the start of the second film if i remember this correctly i
probably don't uh jango fett attempts to kill armadillo or kill someone tries to kill someone
uh-huh poison dart hits some other bloke. Isn't that Zim Weasel?
Sure.
Armadala.
And not Armadala.
Is she the bounty hunter?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
She can shape shift.
She can shift the shape.
Fuck it is.
Oh yeah that's right.
No.
He hires.
There's a bounty hunter going chuffing off
to try and kill Armadala.
She starts
she gets caught by the Jedi.
She starts like
mouthing off
just giving away
all their secrets.
Jango's like
not on my watch
shoots it with a poison dart everyone pokes out the poison dart and is like i'm gonna hunt this
motherfucker down i'm gonna i'm gonna get down to the i'm gonna get down to business so detective
obi-wan detective everyone senior constable obi-wan i'm starting to feel i feel like maybe
baba fat was just like a little side project they were like hey Django one of them's not quite working out properly
it just popped out of the pod it's a baby
it's a bit late now
do you wanna?
Django's like yeah alright
you blokes will look after you
I'll be back later
a couple of snags on the space barb
and then like it's just kind of like a little side thing that he comes in.
Like a rich person who has a kid that the maid looks after.
I was so worried you were going to be like,
like a rich person who has a slave.
Oh, no.
Like he comes back, he sees the kid, he's like,
yeah, you're my kid.
The kid's like, I don't see you.
Yeah, you do it all right.
You look exactly like me.
Good job.
And then he trips back off into space, comes back.
The kid starts to idolise him because
you know those kids whose dad is never there
but they're like
he must be off doing great
things. If I impress him he'll come back.
Exactly. Him and mommy will start
sleeping in the same bed together again.
And so Boba Fett's like
But his mum is also Jango.
Everyone's Jango.
Literally on the planet there is more Jango Fett.
You know what was so fucked up for that kid?
He's like, I'm here, my dad's in space,
but my dad is also everywhere I go.
Yeah, that's a good one.
Yeah, my dad's in space, my dad is also my mum,
and yes, my dad mum is...
Is everywhere.
Everywhere I go.
Is my dad.
And they're being very competent.
And he grew up on that planet,
which means that the only two things he's seen
is Kimono dragons and his dad.
Which is himself.
But lots of his dad, which is him.
Let's say until the age of six or seven,
the conceivable universe for Boba Fett is himself.
And these weird looking lads.
Puzzling. And his weird looking carers kind of wander around and
i can't imagine they have that much maternal instinct they sort of look like for a creature
that's not their own species i can't remember what they look like but in my head they look
like zoras from like they were a bit like stretch like if you get a gray alien from like typical
like ufo whatever and just like... And stretched it out.
Did they talk weird as well?
I feel like they speak like in like a...
Yeah, some of those ones.
Why doesn't Boba talk like that?
Because that's what he would have said.
Well, I just realised that when we were just...
I actually have like a theory to why maybe Jango Fett
isn't a piece of shit dad.
Okay.
There's a million of him living on this planet.
What's to say that when Jango is chuffing off in space,
there isn't a Carol that's just him again anyway?
Oh, yeah.
Jango's like, I've got to make money for my kid.
That's not Jango's voice.
You want to make money for me, kid, right?
That's better.
My little fucking toy.
My little boy over there.
The little fucking one.
The little fucking cunt.
He's got to fucking go to like fucking Oz footy.
Oz kick.
Oz kick.
And the other Django's like, yeah, mate, I'll get it.
I fucking understand, mate.
And he's like, look, I'm going to be off in space.
Could you just fucking pretend to be me?
And you're already me, so it's not even a stress.
I'm going to put, you know, food on this table somehow.
Here's a fucking cricket bat.
Here's a fucking little ball.
Let's fucking.
You just go play kick to kick. Pretend you're me. Gave him a cricket bat Here's a fucking little ball Let's fucking You just go play kick to kick Pretend you're me
Gave him a cricket bat
Now you say
Kick to kick
Of the bat
Kick to kick of the bat
Taking a cricket bat to each other
The most Australian sport
While petting a kookaburra
That means that
And it's really sweet
Boba Fett was raised by
Multiple dads
All Jango Fett
Not just like Jango Fett the guy
Jango Fett the set
And could you clone, like when you're cloning
Could you ask the kimono dragon to tweak it a little bit
So like you give him like this one's got a bit more nurturing instincts
This one's a bit more
What like create an army of jango vets to raise the
kids create an army of dads dad army multi-dad multi-dad dad's army dad's army classic a little
bit like each one a little bit different in personality so this one's a bit more you know
have you done your homework kind of thing and this one's that you call uncle like don't worry
we'll just go play the footy don't do you have to do your homework. Want a beer? Maybe in ten years, mate.
Just kid and make it five.
So you call dad uncle, and you've got your stern dad.
Which you need.
You need a stern dad.
You just need a stern figure occasionally.
Yeah.
Otherwise you end up like you.
I was pointing at Jackson.
Thank you.
That means that the moment Boba Fett, his dad dies and he's like all right I'll be a
bounty hunter and the other jangers like it's all right it's time son well they age quickly
also wait wait okay I was really like this is great no it's not because Boba Fett in that arena
is seeing his dad's fight his real dad and his dad dies, but then his army of dads turn on Boba, really.
Oh, boy.
Because they're fighting for the Jedi, and the Jedi killed...
Oh, no.
He's going to need to see someone about this.
Golly gosh.
No wonder he turns out to be a shitty bounty hunter.
Yeah, like he just wasn't trained for it.
His dad was, but his dad was always fucking off.
It was the army of dads that raised him.
Yeah.
All that emotional trouble.
Why?
Why didn't the Jedi's pick up Boba then?
Why didn't they pick up little baby Boba?
Because they've got a whole...
I think we've realised who the true enemy of this is.
Yeah.
Finally!
Then it's time to shine! The good guys are the bad guys this whole time um no yeah like they've got a whole army of this
kid so why not just fucking take the kid as well fuck it train him to be a jedi or some shit yeah
midi chlorine count might be low maybe not that's true why not just take some midichlorians from the other dad Exactly You've got this sad little baby
You've got all these like clones
This one giant centrifuge
Just push them all in
There you go
Consecrated dad
Consecrated dad
That's how you get the midichlorians
You juice them You juice them That's how you get the meat, Corey You juice them
That's how you get them
Oh boy
So you've got this sad little baby Boba Fett
Standing in an arena where he's just watched his dad be murdered
They're like, hmm, he's gonna be a bounty hunter
Maybe we should take him under our wing
And he'll turn out okay
But instead the Jedi's are like, yeah, fucking job well done
High fives to everybody
Have a shit one, little one They fuck up, Boba Fett's like, yeah, fucking job well done. High fives to everybody. Have a shit one, little one.
They fuck up.
Boba Fett's like, there's pieces of shit.
I'm going to have to grow up and be a bounty hunter.
But I wasn't trained for that.
I just had quite a loving childhood.
Boba Fett's only like, maybe early 20s when he dies.
That's sad.
The saga of Boba Fett is kind of tragic.
Because when you watch the original trilogy,
he's probably like 40 or something, but no.
Like 27?
No, less than that, because if Luke's 16...
I thought Luke was always 18.
Oh, okay, even if Luke's 18.
Yeah, he's early 20s.
Yeah.
Does that mean Darth Vader's like,
hey, look, I'm looking for a bounty hunter
that'll help me take down the Jedi, stop them coming back.
Boba Fett's like, those pieces of shit, yeah, I'm there i'm there but also he's like that fucking han i'll take him down as well
exactly yeah but also that means bob i've got a name for himself very quickly yeah well no i i
think maybe just like everybody got confused like you django fat no bob effect i thought it was
django oh well it looks like i mean you weren the same armor you've got a bit of a colour change clearly the same guy
cool
you're right it is
Jesus Christ
it's like the same guy
you must be the same dude
you did all this
yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah
for sure
sick how old are you
you've aged spectacularly
I
well I'm just
very efficient
alright
you disappeared there
for about 15 years
but hey you're back
welcome aboard
let's fucking hunt down this smuggler prick
and another Jedi
alright and
Django?
nah it's Boba mate
it's Boba cunt
what was that?
you sound like Django
alright it's Boba cunt What was that? You sound like Jago.
All right.
It's Boba Cunt.
It's Boba Cunt.
Must be a new nickname.
And then he goes and fucking dies in the Sarlacc pit.
He gets digested for a thousand years.
That poor bastard.
Like, that's such a sad little... But anyway, he gets taken out by Blind Han.
Yeah. Like, the Jedi shit a sad little... But anyway, he gets taken out by Blind Han. Yeah!
Like, the Jedi shit on Boba, basically, from day one. No, it's not Blind Han.
Um, no, Blind Han,
like, he's holding on to Blind Han, and then, like...
Doesn't Han, like, turn around and smack him off?
No. That whole fight scene's a bit
confusing. Um, pretty sure Luke cuts...
No, because he flies up, Luke
cuts his gun in half, and then
I think he sort of... I don't know, I can't remember.
Return of the Jedi came out a long time ago, guys.
Move on.
There's new classics out.
Have you guys not fucking seen The Hobbit?
It's great.
Let's talk about The Hobbit.
Yeah, The Ballad of Boba Fett.
It's a shit one. The Ballet of Boba Fett. It's a shit one.
The Ballet of Boba Fett.
It's like Swan Lake, but sadder.
Yeah, it's you're your own dad,
and then you get shat on by Jedis your whole life.
You have a pretty good childhood.
You're raised by your dad on.
Raised by dads.
Raised by dads.
They look after you.
They treat you well.
You get everything you need from a dad.
Yeah.
And then the Jedis come in, they're like, oh, none of this.
Kill you. Kill your dad.
Turn your other dads against you.
Fuck off, leave you in the middle
of an arena.
So he's like,
his dad dads.
Slaughtered.
Are they on kimono being like,
when's dad prime coming back?
No, because all those dads have already been
sent out, because the Jedi dads have already been sent out.
Because the Jedi's come and collect.
I'm pretty sure the Jedi's wouldn't be like,
all right, there's this army we're going to take
because they've been trained to army shit.
This group of people, what are they trained for?
Domestic shit.
We can use them.
No, it's like, give them guns anyway.
And they're the ones who became stormtroopers
and that's why stormtroopers are shit at shooting
despite the fact they're trained as bounty hunters.
They don't know what they're doing.
They're like, if you put me in front of an oven,
I could cook a fabulous parma.
If you gave me a footy, I could kick it around.
Kick, kick.
I can teach you how to bat, I can teach you how to bowl,
and I can teach you how to field.
Anything else, I've got nothing.
I can cook a fucking neat snag.
Cook a fucking barbie to fucking perfection, mate.
The trick is to grab them
throw them down on the grill, see if they bounce
that's how you know you've got a good fucking snag
it's very funny to imagine like a fucking
whatever the equivalent of a Star Wars helicarrier is
and you've got like just regular stormtroopers
and just one dad trooper there
just talking about snags
and the rest of them are like who are you
one of the dad troopers
who's fucking hungry i bought a i bought a couple
of 22 packs yeah everyone's a stubby sick one mate that lands everybody's just drunk
is the cricket on no i'll quickly be on somewhere give me the remote give me the remote i got this
maybe the fucking ipl i mean it's fucking IPL. I mean, it's not
test cricket, so it's not really good, but it's cricket.
It's still pretty good.
Just imagine, just like a shiver.
Then just like,
what's the fucking score, mate? What?
The fucking cricket, mate.
What's the fucking score?
Oh, you're one of the dad troopers.
I liked it.
There'd only be about seven, and the tales of the dad troopers. I liked it. There'd only be about seven and the tales of the dad troopers would...
I'm surprised they're not dying when they're instantly in the battlefield.
No, dad reflexes kick in.
Exactly.
Like somebody tries to run past them and they do that thing
and they grab them by the collar.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Get back here, scallywag!
So do you reckon there's these dad troopers out there
That are having this 20 year journey
To try and find fucking Boba Fett
But they never quite catch him
And then they eventually go to Tatooine
And they're like, we're finally gonna be reunited with Boba
We heard he caught Han
What's that?
He's in a fucking Sarlacc pit
Just imagine five just imagine like five of them
fucking Jedi standing around
like, and they're all decorated like
they've been warriors trying to find Boba.
Standing around that Sarlacc pit just chucking
roses into it.
One of them pulls out the
fucking bagpipes.
See ya.
See ya, son.
You're a sick one.
You did good, kid.
You did good.
In the saga of the dad troopers is also a shit one.
But it's also the saga of Jango Fett,
which is also the saga of Boba Fett.
It's all the same saga.
Just Jedi shooting on the Fetts. Well, there's talk of a Boba Fett spin-off film.
If they don't cover dad troopers,
I'm going to be very mad.
Angry ladders to Lucas.
To Lucas, who's
not involved whatsoever.
I'll just be like, dear George Lucas,
my name is Jackson Bailey, and I know you
care just as much about the Dad Troopers
as I do. My ladders going to be like,
dear George,
it's Joel. I hope you have some time
to talk about the Star War.
Yeah.
Yeah. Oh, I just want just like a dad.
Because I imagine to find Boba Fett,
they would go through wars.
They were becoming like warriors.
They would go through heaven and hell.
They would move mountains to find Boba.
I feel like one of the dad troopers probably goes too far
and loses a bit of his humanity.
And it's like, what have I become?
I started out as a sick cunt. Now I'm a shit cunt. Yeah. And again, because they loses a bit of his humanity and is like, what have I become? I started out as a sick cunt,
now I'm a shit cunt.
Yeah, and again,
because they age a bit quicker,
in 20 years,
they're going to be old.
Well, no,
that's a thing that you guys
have been saying a bunch in this.
I don't know if they do,
like the accelerated aging,
I don't know if it's a continued thing.
I think it's sort of like a...
Just while they're in the pod?
So they age till about 25?
That's why I use the pod example
of like,
I think they accelerate to Jango's age, and then it's just like...
Okay, because I was assuming by the time A New Hope came around,
all the clone troopers had either died out or aged,
and were kind of useless, hence why we have all the different Star Troopers.
Imagine Grand Moff Tarkin is a fucking clone.
Not Star Troopers.
That'd be sick.
Grand Moff Tarkin?
Imagine if he was a clone trooper that just aged heaps.
I mean, he doesn't have a New Zealand accent,
but neither do our dad troopers, so hey, who knows?
Maybe...
Wait, which one was Grand Moff Tarkin?
He's the one in charge of the Death Star
that seems like he's the boss before you meet Darth Vader.
Is he the dad trooper that lost his humanity?
He blows up Alderaan, so yeah, I guess.
I'll take those Jed's out for Bubba.
Yes!
He is a...
That would make so much sense now.
All the stormtroopers are just like,
those fucking Jedi's, they took my Bubba away.
He was my Bubba.
My Bubba.
The entire fat army all looked after Bubba. My Bubba. The entire Fett army all looked after Bubba.
He was like the golden boy of that.
That's what happened.
So the Jedi took all the army guys.
They all died in the Order 66 ordeal.
That means the Empire was just left with all the dad troops.
Stormtroopers can't shoot for shit because none of them are trained for army.
But it also explains why they're just so fucking mad about
fuck this Jedi. They fucking took our Bob-Om.
They took Bob-Om. They took our baby Bob-Om.
They took our little baby Bob-Om
Fett.
Man, the story of the Fetts
is just a tragedy.
Those poor dad fetties. I haven't cried this much
since Titanic.
And on that
sour note,
it's time for us to leave you listeners.
I've been Joel.
I've been Jackson.
I've also been Joel.
And let's have a 10 second silence.
Just a moment, a moment of silence for our dear departed brethren.
If somebody could do like a bugle horn
with their mouth.
Now is the most appropriate time to do so.
Ba, ba, ba, ba. Ba, ba, appropriate time to do so. Ba ba ba
ba ba ba
ba ba ba
ba ba ba ba
We miss you, Baba.
Ba ba ba ba
