Episode Notes We take an Odyssey getting to the first episode, sorry. Zathras is a zathras of constant sorrow. Once More into the Breach: Holosuite Alamo... (listen to Lions Led by Donkeys to get the real story). Aging Klingons. DS9 takes the time to dig deep on some species. Worf understands the...

S4E82 - Six Seven Joke (sigh)
Episode Notes Chrysalis Bashir's genebros are back! Bashir strays super close to a Stephen Franklin Memorial Medical Award. Jack is That Fucking Guy. Treachery, Faith, and the Great River This episode definitely shows just how many writers were involved in it. Weyoun wants to defect? Counting the...
-
S4E81 - This is now a sports podcast
Episode Notes Afterimage: We have to get through this to get to the fun sports one, but it's a good Ezri episode. Jude gets sniped by the word Destiny, for some odd reason. Garak has just a tad of PTSD going on. Bashir and Quark call dibs (gross). Ezri gets a promotion, and then also is put in...

Episode Notes The Reckoning: We see Kai Wynn and get angry. Imagine digging a hole and finding your name on the welcome mat. Justen interrupts with some BattleTech news. The Prophets brain-woosh Sisko and tell him about The Reckoning. "I'm an engineer, not a linguist." We have thoughts about the...
-
S4E77 - We Could Have Had Tom Jones
Episode Notes Enjoy several minutes of CULTURE. His Way: Vic is a self-aware hologram who gives dating advice, apparently. Remember, this is a holo-suite, not a holodeck. Vic pulls a romcom move on Kirodo. Jude gets angry. Ana and Justen defend Kirodo. Goorys? Justen has a hot take. BabSpace9 is…

Morn leaves everything to Quark, which is... nothing. Except for a painting of a matador. And a mud bath....
-
S4E72 - An episode about Star Trek
Episode Notes This episode breaks the 4th wall in a fascinating way. Introducing Benny Russell, and some almost-familiar faces. Casual 1950s racism and sexism. Imagining a better future. Armon gets to be the moral backbone of a story for once. In every reality, Odo is a fascist. You never quite...
-
S4E71 - Save Moogie
Episode Notes The Magnificent Ferengi: It's never a good sign when Quark looks overly pleased with himself. Moogie has been captured... by the Dominion? And QUARK has to rescue her? Rom learns what Moogie has been up to. STONKS. All Nog needs is a good job title and he's in. Ferengi are...

Episode Notes We had a good week. Too bad these episodes are less good. Sons and Daughters: Worf continues to bridezilla. Bet you forgot Alexander existed, because Worf sure did. Worf continues to be a terrible dad. Dukat is a less terrible parent than Worf, somehow. Dukat is able to…

more -
S4E65 - Star Trek is Humanity's Isekai
Episode Notes Justen's theory of Trek Movies. PICAAAARD has borg-lepathy. The Enterprise does the traditional "ignoring clear orders". Borg geometry. Surfing the time-travel wake of a sphere. Nothing ever goes wrong when redshirts are in a Jefferies Tube. Troi's main contribution to the movie is...

Episode Notes Children of Time: Kira breaks up with yet another boring guy. Welcome to... Gaia? Grandfather Problem Trolley Problem Or Something. Odo's gotten pretty good at shapeshifting in 200 years. Worf gets a cult. This episode wants to do too many things, and doesn't do any of them well....

Episode Notes Ferengi Love Songs: Rene has found his niche: horny Ferengi. Starfleet pest control is... interesting. Time to visit Moogie! Strangest thing to find in your childhood closet? Wait, how big is this closet?? Brunt is a Sovereign class hater. The one place where the Ferengi>America...
-
S4E60 - Crack open a fresh Weyoun
Episode Notes Business as Usual: Quark is broke and up to his ears in debt. Obviously he needs to get into arms dealing. Holosuites are a legal loophole? Quark may be an immoral gremlin, but he has lines. Miles suffers: dadmode. Ties of Blood and Water: Cardassian shenanigans! Dukat always acts...
-
S4E59 - M. Bison Syndrome
Episode Notes S05E16: Doctor Bashir, I Presume S05E17: A Civil Investigation Doctor Bashir, I Presume: Holo-doc? No, real doc. Making a custom GPT in the future is hard work, apparently. Bashir is khaaa--no, just genetically modified. The sins of the father. Gross, Robert Picardo. Finally Rom…

S4E55 - Quark/Odo (Star Trek)
Episode Notes Let He Who is Without Sin: Odo is no longer a wet fascist and is now a catty meatbag bitch. Woo spring break on Risa! 90s space fashion. We find out how Curzon died. We're not enjoying incel Worf. Or incel promoter. Bajoran rite of separation, and healthy relationships. Quark and...
-
S4E54 - Have the emotions, sadboy!
Episode Notes Continuing our tradition of being totally unstuck in time, CONCLAVE DISCUSSION WARNING. And also we're doing some episodes out of order, sorry. Things Past: We go back to Terok Nor. Quark the collaborator. Dukat is so gross. Cardassian justice, the speed thereof. Another changeling?...

S4E53 - Worf's Peaty Aroma
Episode Notes Is the Department of Temporal Investigations the worst job in Starfleet? Probably. Wait, what is that music playing? It's the ORIGINAL Federation Enterprise! Continuity errors repaired. Kirk's 17 temporal violations. The red/gold swap. We're too busy enjoying this work to ask how…

S4E51 - Bajoran F**k Mansion
Episode Notes Lots of hot takes in our intro. Dax negging Worf. Quark's ex-wife! Worf... picks on Morn, and then pretends to be a traditional Klingon. Worf sulks in a corner while Dax and Quark talk about Grilka. Is Worf a Klingon weeb, or is he just autistic? Quark has to fight another Klingon....
-
S4E50 - Klingon Sisko can Get It
Episode Notes We begin the 5th season of Deep Space 9 with the 50th episode of PodSpace9! Buckle up, folks. Apocalypse Rising: HEIST! Sad formerly goo boy. The problem with prototypes. Oh good more questionable science. Dukat just wants a selfie. Kira is very pregnant. One of the greatest 4th…
more -
S4E49 - Changeling Nipples
Episode Notes Puberty or Menopause? Weird Gowron voicemails. Break out the family van, it's time to take Odo to the doctor. Looks like it's a psychosomatic illness, time for a trial? Garak gets Worfed. Odo giblets. Lots of things in this episode are more surprising than Gowron being a changeling....
-
S4E48 - Jumpsuit Savior
Episode Notes CW: Pandemic/Bioweapon The Quickening: The most annoying Quark has been, and the most angry Worf has been, so far. Kira, Bashir, and Dax road trip time! Bashir grapples with Big Emotions. Body Parts: Miles Suffers (parental). Body Swap plot, but a brand new version--and the most…
more -
S4E47 - No "Eddington was right" T-shirts
Episode Notes Instead of a hard-hitting question we dive into food porn for a bit. For the Cause: What are industrial replicators? Uh oh, Ben. This is point where the Maquis jump the shark. Cardassian saunas. Where's the episode where Sisko's security clearance is reviewed? Garak makes Bashir...

Episode Notes CW: Self-Harm Rules of Engagement: Watch this episode, it's a really good Star Trek Legal Drama. The Klingons want to extradite Worf for... murder? What is Worf's holosuite history?

-
S4E45 - A is for Author Insert
Episode Notes As a holiday treat to ourselves, we are going a bit out of order and temporarily skipping two warcrimes (airhorn) episodes. We'll come back, don't worry! Shattered Mirror: Time for some mirror universe shenanigans! Mom?! Our own Defiant, but made out of spare Pepsi cans and chewing...
-
S4E44 - Not Our Orange Hypercapitalist Gremlins
Episode Notes STRIKE! Quark's bar workers unionize. Unfortunately, this is against Ferengi law, and also anathema to Cop Odo. Maybe that's why they love each other so much. Where did Rom get hold of a copy of Marx translated into Ferengi? Jude gets frustrated with the relentless flirting between...
-
S4E43 - Stephen Franklin Award for Dubious Medical Ethics
Episode Notes Some very timely holiday content. Sons of Mogh: Time for a ritual killing! Worf and Dax. Worf was cucking Ricker. Dax is basically a Klingon for the purposes of this show. Murdering family members is a bridge too far. Klingon Operation would be really complicated. The triumphant...
-
S4E42 - Old Man Yaoi
Episode Notes We're all 90s kids. Crossfire: Worf and Odo bond over being neurodivergent and cops. Odo is stuffed into the third wheel. Quark is a good dude, in his own way--and possibly the only character that recognizes that Odo has actual emotions. Jude has thoughts about the cuck chair. Major...
-
S4E41 - Flock of Goop Seagulls
Episode Notes We recorded this before the election. Sorry. Jude gets some managerial advice. Home Front: At least there's another Dad in this. Cadet Nog! Sabotage! Babylon 5 I Know That Face! "Ancient Klingons slew our gods a millennia ago." Nog is part of the Sisko family now. Paradise Lost:...
-
S4E40 - Klingons shop at Vallco
Episode Notes Sword of Kahless: The only evil telepaths in Star Trek. Cursed or totemic? More Klingon lore and the central conflict of Worf than we've really ever previously gotten. Yeet that artifact into space. Our Man Bashir: This gets pretty unhinged, you've been warned. Garak's introduction…
more -
S4E39 - Submarine Edging
Episode Notes Jude gets busted down to acting ensign due to an HR error. Starship Down: Justen goes feral. The Ferengi are like a bad cell phone company. Sloppy-style concussy. Worf learns a management lesson from O'Brien, and pulls a TNG move. Quark and Hanok are great, and it's nice to see…
more -
S4E38 - Definitely Not Boushh
Episode Notes Indiscretion: A bottle episode with Dukat and Kira? Hilarity ensues. Dukat drops the mask a bit. Kira is surprised by well-read Dukat, and has to deal with Cardassians as something other than the oppressor. Foreign-object-in-butt jokes are funny. The... Breen? Sisko biffs it. Dax...
-
S4E37 - Wormhole Prolapse
Episode Notes The Visitor: In which we traumatize Jude. Captain Dad is the best even when temporally displaced. What else did this writer do? Oh, In the Pale Moonlight. Uh oh. The one mistake they made is getting Alexander Siddig's aging completely wrong. Some tech Trek gets right, some it gets...
