    As far as the "Droid God" question goes:
    Nobody in the Star Wars universe is speaking English. Their universal language is called Basic, and all of the dialogue in the books/movies/shows/comics is technically using an English translation of Basic. As such, the droids aren't actually saying "Oh my god." They are (probably) saying some exclamation in Basic that has effectively the same meaning/usage.

      I agree, they are one of the most expensive items in the Galaxy.
      Also, kyber crystals aren’t really expensive. They’re extremely rare, but they’re not good for anything in the civilian sector. Alex pointed out that lightsabers are expensive, but that’s because it’s a rare weapon that is impressive, functional, useful, and frankly just really badass. The crystal alone though isn’t worth much. And since no one except Force users can create a lightsaber (due to the crystal needing to be bonded with the user and activated by the Force), you can’t use it for anything at all.

    I think the question about Vader asleep at a meeting is almost moot in a “does a tree that falls in a forest when there’s no one around make a sound” philosophical way. No one is going to SAY to Vader that he fell asleep. He knows they won’t, so he won’t say anything. If that’s the case, did he truly fall asleep?

    Surprised (for the question about non force sensitive believers) they gave no mention to the blind guy in Rogue One. Perfect example of a true believer who couldn't move stones with his mind, but clearly the Force was looking out for him.

    There is the dude in Rogue One, blanking on his name. Wouldn't call him a Jedi, but he definitely seemed to follow the Force and somewhat the way of the Jedi. The Force is with me and I am one with the Force.

      Chirrut Îmwe. Yeah. The Clone wars and the canon comics have reference to the fact that not all force users are Jedi or Sith. The Night sisters for example are neither. But they use the force. Îmwe is a force user that isn’t Jedi or Sith

    9:45 I dont know if this is canon now, but at least in legends there was a direct analogue for gold in the star wars universe. It was called Aurodium and it was one of the rarest metals in the galaxy (refined aurodium anyways), a small pouch of it was worth around three billion credits.

    14:51 Rian Johnson referenced the same book when people complained that he "made up a force power"
    But even without the power existing beforehand, every force power is made up. I didn't see anyone complain about force lightning being made up when it first appeared in a sequel.

    There are non force sensitives who practice the way of the force in canon. For example, the Jedi temple guards were not force sensitive, yet followed the Order and its teachings.

    Bo-Katan is definitely not in her mid 50s, she's about the same age as Ahsoka. Kate Sackoff is only 40 years old. She's probably around 45-49 years old in the Mandalorian, tops.
    However, Ming-Na Wen (who plays Fennec Shand) is 57 years old, so the women in Star Wars just age really well.

    The x-wing was given the name in 1977, whilst aurebesh was only created in 1995, the designer of the aurebesh obviously didn’t see a reason to change the name nearly 20 years later so that’s why we have the name “x wing”

    I was thinking about the English Alphabet question (X-Wing, Y-Wing etc) before bed and thought to myself (never typed) oh man I've gotta ask that question tomorrow.
    And I wake up and this video pops up on my recommendations.
