Star Trek The Next Conversation - a comedy Star Trek podcast currently about TV's Deep Space Nine DS9 (or TNG)

Worf and Dax head to Risa and the result are... oddly unsexy. But don't worry, because they run into... some preachy buzzkills. Matt and Andy go on a hunt to the find the stakes in the least fun getaway to Risa any Trek character has had.[This TNC episode was recorded before the passing of beloved Captain, Sir Patrick Stewart. s5e7 episode discussion begins around 1:11]

In one of the most beloved episodes of Trek (one could argue THE most beloved?), the DS9 crew returns to the past to visit... a BUNCH of old friends. Matt and Andy are not above deep, luxurious feels on this one.And in possibly one of the most meta, snake eating it's own tail moments in podcast history, the boys take their own visit to the past to call the beagle while watching the actual beagle Andy called while he was calling it.[Episode discussion begins at 1:52 - it's not the result of the time orb, folks - that's exactly how long it takes!! And for those who practice, Matt drops a PICARD S3 spoiler at :56 minutes in. I remembered!]

Keiko comes back from a work trip possessed and oddly has never been chiller. O'Brien turns to Rom, coming into his own as DS9 character.[Episode discussion begins around 1:34 (!)]

Jake Sisko goes Rambo! If Rambo was a real, actual young man who logically ran away when he was afraid. In this format-breaker, Jake tells us a tale of the trials and emotional ravages of war, as Matt spots Jimmy Oleson guest-starring.[Episode discussion begins around 1:24, but really around 1:29 after that "Edward Hopper Corner" everybody's been demanding]

In a crazy twist, DS9 reveals that Dax and Worf...aren't already messing around? And in another crazy twist - O'Brien and prego Kira are super hot for each other? But you know pervy Bashir is gonna - sit on the sidelines and comment? Welcome to Weird Space 9![Episode discussion begins around 1:09]
