No. The first episode is going to be in English, and will quickly
segue into mostly Lojban.
By the second episode I'd like it to be a 90/10 of Lojban/English
excepting any explanations by Chocolate.

This sounds much better for the second or third episode.

This sounds fantastic for an episode much later on, or as a cute 'Did
you know?' tidbit in the first episode.
