It's another fan request as the holobois go down another Riker hallucination tunnel! This time, it's not weird alien kids with holoprojectors, but rather a plot to gaslight him into thinking theatre is real life. A fantastic Hitchcockian romp, it's a shame nothing takes place on... THE HOLODECK!

Yep, we're doing it again! While we didnt record a TON of episodes since the last tournament, we've thrown in an extra 32 just for fun, including some non-Trek episode UPSTARTS to see if they may pull off the ultimate upset and win it all. But, they'll be up against some TOUGH competition, including last year's winner: Take Me Out to the Holosuite from Deep Space 9. Will that episode repeat or will there be a new champion of... THE...

The holobois keep branching out to non-Trek shows, and if you're fans of terrible Rick & Morty impressions, you're in luck! Some lady named Beth has a clone called Space Beth, who looks like if Beth were a Portland barista, and they totally fall in love. When interrogating whether or not that's a good idea, they decide to do a "whole San Junipero" in... The Holodeck!!!

In their SECOND episode of Picard, the holobois discuss the merits of serialized vs episodic content - particularly in the context of the holodeck. Picard and crew are stuck in a nebula thingy and it looks pretty bad. Instead of coming up with a solution, most of them (except for Seven and Dr. Crusher of course) end up hanging out on...

In one of Star Trek TNG's all-time spookiest episodes, Data's dream program starts giving him nightmares. In a rare twist, Data is going haywire in order to SAVE the Enterprise - but not without few stabby stabs along the way. Ensuing are silly straws, cellular peptide cakes, and a fantastic therapy sission with Sigmund Freud in... The Holodeck!!!

This week the holobois venture outside Star Trek to discuss adventures in “the simulator” on the USS Orville! Can downloading porn onto the ship’s computer accidentally introduce a deadly virus into its systems like it could in 2006 with Limewire on Windows XP? We’ll explore that, uniform color, and Pert’s strange absence from a seemingly parallel universe on THE SIMULATOR!!!!

To quote Eric Bana's Nero... the wait is over.

All four holobois are back for this Very Special Episode after months of hiatus due to the Writers' and Actors' strikes. After all, they're more than heroes: they're union men. This classic season 7 banger features Federation Ferengi and Dominion Defection hijinks, but because the holobois are a bit rusty there isn't any content on... THE HOLODECK!

    Cardiac Cowboys

    The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
