Captain Archer again finds himself fooled by a tricksy lady. Join your slightly-skeeved-out hosts as they discuss a solidly entertaining episode that is marred by cavalier and under-examined representations of assault and a very strong orientation towards the male gaze.

Kira and Kira deal with an indecisive rascal. Join your weary hosts as they discuss how a mirror universe episode that explores the ethics and morality of romantic entanglements with alternate versions of dead lovers could come out so mind-dullingly boring!

Something goofy's going on with Boothby. Join your Species 5618 hosts as they discuss good plotting, awkward chemistry, and inconsistent characterization in this generally well-received episode of Star Trek: Voyager. Note that we somehow let things get a bit out of control on this one!

A nearly-nude Trip hassles bunch of silly bastards. Join your well-invested hosts as they discuss the many positives of this much-maligned Ferengi misadventure, including a well-worn - but well-produced - plot, fantastic performances by Ethan Phillips, Clint Howard, Matt Malloy, and the always brilliant Jeffrey Combs, and Die-Harding with Trip and Little Trip.

Kirk and Spock dress up as Nazis, but it's all in good fun. Join your beany-wearing hosts as they discuss a clever (if somewhat improbable) premise, tonal discordance that somehow doesn't get in the way of the story, and the glorious majesty that is Spock's chest hair. Note that Dan get uncomfortable during the chest hair conversation, which itself should be sufficient enticement f...

Worf boards the fast train to fascism while Captain Picard gets increasingly aggravated. Join your hosts with nothing to hide as they discuss themes that are upsettingly relevant to contemporary reality.

Doctor Bashir learns that life isn't just about hot buttered scones and moba jam. Join your undercover hosts as they discuss the introduction of Section 31 to the Star Trek canon, the rewatchability of this cleverly-crafted and multi-layered narrative, and how this episode compares to William Sadler's greatest role as Death in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey.

FYI, It's Got Star Tr...

Turns out when it comes to Nazis, resistance isn't futile! Join your very dry hosts as they discuss Voyager's penchant for combining well-structured traditional moral tales with clever sci-fi conundrums, how much fun many of (but not all) the actors seem to be having playing different characters, and the joyfully chaotic imagery of Klingons slashing Nazis to bits.

Horrifying creatures briefly take over Starfleet, but it turns out not to be a big deal in the end. Join your Jesse-less hosts as they discuss solid (if uncharacteristically creepy) storytelling, 1980s twists on 1960s production design, and the awkwardly steered balance between goofy and nightmarish in this infamous TNG classic.
