We genuinely can't figure out what Gul Dukat would drive. He's too complex to distill down to a single car.
Josh can't remember the title of the most notorious book in (neo)liberal economics, which really sets the tone for this discussion of property rights.
Things got off the rails but it seemed appropriate, given the attempted coup and all. It's a scary world, find some comfort with us.
Discovery Season 3 is Actually Good. That's it. There is no joke. If you (understandably) got turned off by season 1 & 2, check out season 3. And hey kid, grab yourself some cubed meats.
Andorians, those fun blue folks with antennae? They're not supposed to have ears, but sometimes they do. And when they do... We're also drinking deep of wisdom of Jeffrey Combs this episode.
Oh, I'm sorry - you thought this was going to be about the Klingon High Council? No no no, it's all about Tom Clancy and Chris Isaak.
With friend of the show, Jesse Balzer! In honor of Thanksgiving, we're covering the TNG movie Insurrection, because it's about the forced relocation of peoples at the hands of a hegemonic power. Above all else, remember: Mr. Baaku, may I?
We tried talking about mundane things on the ship, but all we got was Makeout Point, cigarette burns in the battle bridge, and Big Shrimp.
See it's like Behind the Music but it's the Neck.
Election Special live from Skrain, AL! We talk about how the Federation, as a government, functions.
Who is Doctor Crusher, really? Turns out she's a good doctor, an ok-to-middling mother, and an expert botanist. Too bad Picard stabbed her husband with a Nausicaan. Follow us: @TrekByNumbers
Riker is a tragic character:daddy issues, low self-esteem, and a prisoner of his own libido. He can't make real connections or friends, even though he's surrounded by colleagues that respect him. It's a sad tale, told by idiots; full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Barclay. What's that guy's deal? He seems nice, at least. Does he get a happy ending? We turn to the "beta canon" novels to find out.
Miles sure loves yelling at babies. Ghosts have taken over the bodies of 3 officers (androids are susceptible to ghosts?) and want only to escape their eternal imprisonment and torture. Picard says "lol, no" and that's that. But yeah, Miles holds his family at gunpoint in a surprisingly smart script that is hampered by Insecurity Violence.
NickTate.com is here to put in a delightfully heartfelt performance in a very stupid episode of DS9, so turn off your brain and enjoy NickTate.com's performance as Miles, working as an intelligence asset with the worst handler ever, befriends and betrays the Loneliest Mobster.
There's some new Trek on the horizon, and it's.... kinda good so far? At least the first episode is! We unpack it, we throw out some brilliant ideas (Alex, call us), and we say stupid things.
We did it, everyone. We made it to The Episode We Always Make Oblique References To. The one where Miles O'Brien hucks his daughter through a time vortex, and also yells at a baby. This also begins our examination of the Life and Times of Miles Edward O'Brien.
Hey, how are you, huh? How were the holidays? Did you go to your aunt's..? Oh, I see. Yes, nice to see other parts of the family too. Oh, me? Well...
Part 1 of the Thanksgiving Special is here for you with return of friend-of-the-show Joe. It's The Wrath of Khan, the one legitimately good Star Trek movie. And it's such a treat. Enjoy and thank YOU for listening.
