So I am currently on ubuntu and i have a media library with some files in a folder named something like this: Episode 1 - random text here Episode 2 - random text here

I was wondering if there is any way to change the names of all the files in the folder to where their names look like this: Episode 1 This way the random text after is removed. Now the problem is that there is over 400 files so i dont want to do it manually. Is there any program or command that can do this?
