[@uninvited_haggis]

I gotta say, the implication that padme was high as hell the whole time she was with anakin makes so much goddamn sense

[@dricul]

It could explain some of the cringe dialogue between them.

[@michielkudova3887]

I think both of them were high.

[@SGFTI]

I mean Anakin was a drug smuggler, makes sense that his girl is a drug addict.

[@DIEGhostfish]

3:58 I'm sorry but I can COMPLETELY believe Jabba the Hutt would put a deathmark on someone for fucking up a seasoning delivery to his kitchen.

[@mixererunio1757]

Han Solo: Without precise calculations we'll fly into cluster super market Luke: HA Obi Wan: "I'm bored" Chewbacca: *smiles*

[@volcranoii7709]

Too much spice

[@bathilra5364]

shit not the super markets

[@TheBard1999]

to be fair about Han smuggling food additives: Spices were very valuable.... several centuries ago before globalization.

[@boobah5643]

It's as much refrigeration as globalization. Spoiled food is better than starvation, and with proper preparation you can cover for the taste.

[@jubesjubes241]

Still is in certain cases, look at saffron.

[@Lonewolf360gaming]

The lore master blesses us with his knowledge of spice

[@kurtdread22]

Aayla Secura getting iced while sounding like a Beverly Hills girl on acid for the first time had me rolling

[@BigothyArchibaldBusiness]

Seeing the behind the scenes clip with Han and Luke shooting the shit during a blooper made my soul happy. They are having a good amount of fun. lol. Great vid as always, bossman

[@Annubis21]

One of the most memorable parts of the Jedi Academy trilogy, for me, is when Kyp was found in the Kessel mines by Han and co. and they had to escape with him without getting mauled to death by those viscous energy spiders.

[@omnius1357]

Little mistake there at around three minutes. Spice is not what can make you fold space time, but the holtzmann engine does. Spice lets the navigators foresee a clear path through the universe.

[@luckykennedy7364]

Luke: “No my father was a spice navigator” Me: “So a drug runner lmao!”

[@johnj.spurgin7037]

could have just been normal spices like salt and pepper, or legal spice trade, but yes.

[@TheMountainMan-wz8xf]

@@johnj.spurgin7037 Like how a CVS pharmacist is technically drug dealer. Lol

[@brandonselitetv1436]

​@@johnj.spurgin7037On Tatootine?😂 Everyone on that planet is aware Jabba The Hutt is the ruler and Everyone knows he pays well especially for drug smuggling

[@EricVornoff]

In Dune, spice isn't what allows Navigators to fold space. The Holtzman engine folds space, while the Navigator uses the spice to enhance their mental abilities so they can find a path through hyperspace that won't shoot them into a star. 1 out of every 8 jumps (not using a Navigator, but just a holtzman engine) result in death.

[@christophermeans]

I need you to know, I saw this title come up on my feed and literally said "Oh fuck yes." out-loud.

[@caramelconundrum9280]

Ok, viewing the PT and OT while knowing everyone is super stoned makes everything make so much more sense.

[@baphometsims]

This was the first educational video I've watched about Star Wars lore. Very impressive content. Thanks so much.

[@valinhorn42]

Oh my god, the Kung Pow voiceover was pure gold.

[@benjaminshrader2112]

This video is criminally underrated great job

[@adriangore850]

Quickly becoming my favorite series on KZbin. Those call backs to Kung Pow: Enter The Fist were amazing.

[@MasterJunior93]

So, this is what it's like to smuggle on the side?

[@leonardopadua7536]

Okay now, I watched a couple of your videos but this one reaaally makes the Top list of Star Wars deep knowledge man !! Whereeee did you find all of this? Did you read all of the Legends Comics???? and played the games too ??? This is amazing man!! I bet no one else but you know all of this! This is an incredible job man!! Congrats!

[@crazyduplicate]

Well, seems all that smuggling on the side hes been doing is finally paying off!

[@crazyduplicate]

gods damn it saint already did the joke in the same video. this is why you watch videos before commenting.

[@darthsarkasm1332]

really nice one. thanks to the tempest feud novel i was already planing a pen&paper campaign focusing on drugs, smugling, gambling. up and down the hutt space. visiting kessel, nar shaddaa, ryloth and ylesia. so, thank you very much for this extra inspiration.

[@shnargru]

You've got to put that Wimp-Lo scene as it's own video!!!

[@matthewr1019]

your channel is criminally underrated man. 10/10. Last I saw you uploaded was the Top dogs. I've been missing out! Time to binge tf out of all the new content

[@AquarialTV]

Another banger, the legend will never die

[@AlystrZelland]

This is still one of my favorite Star Wars lore videos

[@xbtacomanz7243]

Listening to this on my way to work is the best

[@jdenoe69]

One of the best Star Wars KZbin channels. Keep up with the great content!

[@emilefoxhall3155]

Lmao that Ayla Secura scene was phenomenal 😂😂😂

[@peterhall8722]

Love these videos 👍 keep up the good work!

[@Sam501UK]

Saint million the legend

[@MisterSweetProductions]

Beautiful and underrated, like the rest of your content! Thank you for this!

[@OrchidAndromeda]

Really enjoyed this! I love to know these new details of the Star Wars universe

[@ARMADILLOARMADILLO]

thank you for keeping it alive

[@Darkmesna1]

I never realized how many variety of Spice that existed in the galaxy. Really does emphasizes that Smuggling all of that variety does pay well. Im impressed with the amount of study to find these references. Now Im curious with all of these Spices listed, where would do you land in the Imperial Penal Reference if you get caught smuggling these spices by Imp authorities?

[@MegaDeathRay10]

I prefer death sticks thank you. I like to know what I'm getting up front.

[@BrandonDeacon]

I gotta give it up for the Kung Pow reference. Beautiful!

[@jilliebean6312]

21:32 lol i was waiting for a death sticks joke i died right there

[@relaetsecyr]

Love your vids. Keep it up

[@kamerondonaldson5976]

some variants of engspice are great, as is tempest. theyre right up there with glitteryll, nanarium root, impact, corellian mist, and all the rest of the uppers. the downers don't have the same truth serum effect on people like anakin according to palpatine, as he claims excitable emotions like anger give him focus, rather than lethargic ones.

[@michaelbraxton137]

Great video you did a lot of research for this video you deserve more subs and more views

[@benjackman4814]

Keep the Star Wars vids coming man!

[@debinman]

Just came from Keeganners' video, great content!

[@alexstreet9470]

This galaxy far far away is pretty dope .

[@Valiyus]

I would never expect a Kung Pow reference in my Star Wars. Truly astounding

[@Supermarine0Spitfire]

Forgot the other important info: "Don't get high on your own supply." Great vid.

[@ttownboyzzzluther1025]

I wonder how many of Luke's friends tried to get him into Spice back on the ol Moisture Farm.

[@michielkudova3887]

All of them.

[@jango3281]

Very nice usage of the Sith logo during the intro.

[@Molly-vn2hf]

These damn videos are more addictive than spice

[@Jamacanbacn]

Spice Salesman who smuggles on the side.

[@DIEGhostfish]

16:26 It could also be used to make someone resistant to force mind control. One of Han's friends Drub Mukumb (Yes I know) used it to escape servitude to a force savant creep kid who was basically Space Joffery and warn Han about the plans he and his mother had to do evil shit. He was in long term therapy on Ithor afterwards, and I like to think he'd recovered enough when the Vong attacked to help evacuate the planet. Or join the fleet fighting back.

[@dothesick]

This is a banger.

[@robertbrown6841]

These videos are dope

[@JunebugGaming]

Best Star Wars KZbinr.

[@SolidSnnake]

reminds me of my buff rotations in star wars galaxies

[@CKT1138]

Does that weird red bark from the Mace Windu "Shatterpoint" story count as a spice?

[@DIEGhostfish]

0:19 fun fact Kid mea heard "Spice Miser Castle" and I imagined like, Heat Miser from The Year Without a Santa Claus but wearing brown and holding cinamon sticks.

[@tiggytheimpaler5483]

I still like solo rework by lucas after the anti drug push in the 90s was that he was smuggling raw spice to avoid taxes and i kind of dig that ngl

[@Jaw656]

Love these videos! I just finished reading the original Thrawn trilogy. Can anyone recommend some other good legends books?

[@desmonides]

If I lived in that galaxy far far away, I’d overdose everyday 🥴

[@schlepedits7486]

Time to rip a line of special K. THIS TRIGGERED ME

[@ianhuron9295]

You'd be a hell of a spice salesman

[@mayanmaster92]

Thank you for the kung pow reference

[@justletmelistthese]

I can see the mouse dealing spice

[@michaelwescott8064]

"Spice is the narcotic of -Dune- Starwars."

[@MG-bw9hs]

Now we know what they were smuggling on the side 😳

[@dante7302]

30 minute documentary on Space drugs. Feels like 2 hours. Who am I again?

[@tappajaav]

Lay off the space drugs man

[@michalviktorin6758]

Actually Tobacco is not called in Tabac in Star Wars, but actually in my country, our neigbours country, and who knows where else.

[@hazlin3136]

Clearly I wasn't paying attention because I thought the Heavy Bread or Dathomir cake, was in fact, a pastry. They always looked frosting glazed and so deliciously. (oh look, cake loot!)

[@adamcohill1617]

As a recovering heroin addict this makes me want to become a recovering spice addict too.

[@TheMountainMan-wz8xf]

There I was, mixing away at the perfect drink. The drink that would finally get me off this rotten sandbag of a planet. So close, yet so far, as there was something missing. "Rodian pharamones." I said to himself, though falling under the banter of my patrons around me. But how? How would I go about acquiring this key to my freedom? I haven't seen a Rodian wandering around in months. And even if I did, what would I do then? Do I simply ask them politely for a sample as if it not completely rude of me to even think of doing so? Do I go under their nose somehow and extract without their knowledge or consent? How would I go about this task? What incapacitates a rodian? Oh what a frustrating conundrum I seem to have acquired! That's when the blaster was pulled. No special occurrence, why just a few moments earlier a man's two arms were reduced to one. That is, at least until I saw the man doing the pulling; A rodian! In my establishment! As he lead another man down to booth to sit a mix of excitement and disbelief washed over me. This euphoria was quickly drained however by the prick of the returning mystery; How do I act upon this opportunity? Ideas suddenly began to swarm my skull. Buzzing and bumping and biting as they zipped past and into each other. I have blaster, do I simply scorch him? No, not one of my own patrons. Think how bad for business that'd be. I supposed I could follow him and strike when he was alone, but what of my safety? You didn't just go strolling 'round those parts without troublemaking on your mind. Perhaps I could hire a bounty hunter to do the job for me. I've never been one to gamble though, and certainly not with my life savings. Or maybe- POW! PLOP! Two consecutive sounds I was more than familiar with. Down went to green man, his blaster cool and its trigger still itching for a squeeze. The rodian's target stood up and approached me. "Sorry about the mess." Was all he said as he flipped me a coin and strode off. "Sorry?" I said as I gripped the coin with a growing smile, eyes laying upon my breathless smoke-ridden savior. "You just made me one rich man."

[@h.plovecraftn-4307]

Man that’s really dark

[@Vantic1]

Mike Stoklasa definitely had an influence here

[@ivangambino4135]

[@ivangambino4135]

[@AlystrZelland]
