184: The Tribble Whisperer
The Trouble with Tribbles. They’re the cutest, most prolific aliens in the Star Trek universe—and also the furriest. They are, of course, Tribbles. We discuss the episode has remained a fan favorite for nearly 50 years.
183: Breaking Out with a Bad Case of Hooves
Bounty. Tellarites are one of Star Trek’s most memorable races, yet we had to wait until Enterprise for them to get real screen time after TOS. We discuss “Bounty,” including the non-Tellarite first draft of the script with Larry Nemecek.
182: Getting It Done In a Nighty
Eye of the Needle. When Voyager first started making its way home, the crew were full of hope that they would find a quick way back. In “Eye of the Needle,” such a thing almost happened. We discuss the unlikely helping hand extended by the Romulans.
181: Axanar ... It’s About What the Story Wants
Axanar. There’s a movement that is taking Star Trek fandom by storm. It’s on a screen near you, but it isn’t coming from the studios you’d expect. We’re joined by Alec Peters and Robert Meyer Burnett to find out what drives their passion for Tre
180: You’ve Got Mail!
His Way. We discuss the introduction of jazz to DS9 and how a holographic singer with style helped bring Odo and Kira together. We also delve into the rights of holographic beings, Miles and Jules, and more.
179: For the Love of Spock
Adam Nimoy Talks Star Trek, Documentary, and Dad. Perhaps no one better symbolizes Star Trek than Leonard Nimoy. He was like a father to many of us, and we’re joined by his own son to discuss life with Leonard as dad, and the documentary he is now makin
178: It’s All About the Zippers
Déjà Q. After three appearances as a thorn in Picard’s side, Q has been kicked out of the omnipotence club. We discuss human Q and how he handles terrifying experiences like getting hungry and falling asleep.
177: We Have Found ALL the Culture
The City On the Edge of Forever. Nearly 50 years after it was written, “City” remains one of the most beloved of all Star Trek episodes. We discuss why this story transcends time.
176: A Clever Lampshade
Judgment. In a move that felt out of place in Enterprise’s second season, the writers dipped into Star Trek VI lore to put Archer into hot water with the Klingons. We discuss whether this was a clever move or a creative crutch.
175: Don’t Knock the Cucumber Sandwiches
Persistence of Vision. Keeping the ship running smoothly has left Janeway with little time to eat (but apparently time to go goth). We unravel the mysteries of Jeri Taylor’s story of exhaustion and hallucinations in the Delta Quadrant.
