You probably can't tell from its almost seamless, off-the-cuff feel, but every episode of
Star Time typically undergoes a lot of editing, especially during the backlogs. Verbal miscues, incorrect song IDs, garbled speech -- they're all usually absent from the show because I do repeated takes on about 75% of the announcements. Fan of Freudian slips as I am, though, when a verbal mistake reveals an entirely new concept or is just too funny to overlook, I'll leave it in. Most likely I'll build the rest of the show around it. This episode has one of those moments; it's in Set 2. Also: R&B music.
