Get out your space swiffers and prepare to visit the Dry Moon of the Fish People! It’s time to discuss the change-of-pace episode “Ko’Zeine,” which we found to be… fine. If this is the baseline for “Starfleet Academy,” that’s good news, but we do have some thoughts on all the ways this episode failed to rise above being perfectly cromulent. We do love that Warp Slug, though. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.
Natalie has a job interview with Saturday Night Live. Tension at the studio builds as everyone worries about the future of the network. I don’t think you should be worried, though. Sure, there may be bells. There may be a siren. But Lex and Brian will be with you every step of the way. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Things are starting to heat up for Simon and Trevor as they find themselves embroiled in some classic misunderstanding hijinx. It’s out of the frying pan and into the audition for our mismatched thespian pals as we cover episodes 5 and 6 of Marvel’s Wonder Man. Then in our Superhero Sweep segment we have a chat about the upcoming Spider-Noir starring none other than Nick Cage himself. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.
What’s that saying about loving what you do..? Robin shares her not-at-all secret and very relatable geek-out. Sandra Wong with Robin Bradford.
Welcome to Missed Connections, a new-ish game with some familiar twists, in which two pairs of contestants try to guess words and then find the hidden bonds that connect them together. Lex will always tell you when he knows the answer, but unfortunately for him, the players still have to take turns. Jason Snell with Lex Friedman, Dan Moren, Tony Sindelar and Brian Hamilton.
When all four adventurers reunite on the roof, that’s when the party really starts buzzin’! Tony Sindelar with Annette Wierstra, Chip Sudderth, Kathy Campbell and Monty Ashley.
Listener Gregory thinks Pop-Tarts are pies. We have ratio questions. Also: We remember so many burned palates caused by calzones and McDonald’s fruit pies. John Siracusa and Jason Snell.
This one gets pretty dark, with a training mission that goes horribly wrong, leading to casualties. Meanwhile, Holly Hunter watches Paul Giamatti chew scenery (in the best possible way). Plus, don’t forget the YA-mandatory and story-arc-relevant sexy times! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.
Welcome to our last mission to say goodbye to the Agency. It seems fitting that we do this on Valentine’s Day, exactly six years after we started. We’ve gathered a collection of Agents to reminisce about some favourite episodes, provide recommendations for what we should have talked about, and get sentimental about memories of the past 6 years. We are glad you are here to join us on our final love fest to celebrate what was and where you can continue to find us on the Incomparable mission. We love our listeners! Thank you for being Agents of SMOOCH with us. Annette Wierstra with Moisés Chiullán, Kirsten Goruk, Sandra Wong, Kathy Campbell, Shelly Brisbin, Micheline Maynard and James Thomson.
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride it where I like. Shaenon K. Garrity returns to discuss Flan O’Brien’s enigmatic The Third Policeman (written 1940, published 1967). John McCoy.
Want to see a dead body? Bring your comb, stock up on cherry flavor Pez, and stay really quiet if you see a deer. We return to the 1980s and honor Rob Reiner by discussing 1986’s “Stand By Me,” a movie Jason has somehow never seen. It’s not a movie with Things That Happen, but that’s just fine with us. Jason Snell with Kelly Guimont, Erika Ensign, John Siracusa and Shelly Brisbin.
Jennifer shares a down-to-earth nerd-out she’s held since childhood. Sandra Wong with Jennifer Chow.
This episode is either recon or snack-eating, depending on the adventurer. Tony Sindelar with Annette Wierstra, Chip Sudderth, Kathy Campbell and Monty Ashley.
Simon is back and this time he’s off to Pacoima for his mother’s birthday party with Trevor in tow. We cover another couple of episodes of Marvel’s Wonder Man show which continues to make strong choices and is really opening doors for some terrific actors. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.
Dan’s working to patch things up with everyone while he and Jeremy host a Seder for the team. Meanwhile, Casey’s figuring out his top favorite movies. Lex and Brian discover some overlap in their top movies too, but we’re best buds, so no need to patch anything up. Right Lex? … Lex? Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Listener Gregory tries to confuse us with a question about open-faced sandwiches and pizza. We largely ignore him and talk about different ways to eat things that are like pizza, but aren’t quite pizza. John Siracusa and Jason Snell.
This week the fate of The Sisko is revealed, sort of, as Sam investigates one of the great mysteries of the universe: What exactly happened in the “Deep Space Nine” series finale? More than a nostalgia trip, it’s a story that sets one of the “Starfleet Academy” characters on a new course. Plus: Our boy Kyle is back! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.
There’s a reason they call it “New” England Joe Rosensteel and Dan Sturm.
Celebrate Valentine’s Day with The Incomparable. It’s time to discuss that Canadian hockey show everyone’s been talking about. “Heated Rivalry” just wants to know, “Will you come to the cottage this summer?” Annette Wierstra with Kirsten Goruk, Heather Berberet, Stacy Watnick and Kat Benesh.
Does everyone on this episode have a good time playing trivia—with THREE new editions? Oh yes we didgeridoo! Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Glenn Fleishman, Jason Snell, Monty Ashley, Sandra Wong and Shelly Brisbin.
