I love, love, love Lwaxana Troi so I'm delighted to inform you that this week we're discussing The Forsaken (#StarTrek DS9 S1 E17)
Listen here: https://buff.ly/3BAiLWl
Thanks to Rugger for the recommendation: "In all of Trek, there is no more emotionally raw, powerful, and moving scene than in The Forsaken. Odo and Lwaxwana are stuck in the elevator, and Odo has to revert into his natural liquid stateāand he has to trust Lwaxana to do it.
Ahoy, fellow sleeveless gym bunnies!
Listener Tonks recommended "Stormy Weather" (#StarTrek Discovery, 2021) https://buff.ly/3N2XPtA
One of many "void episodes", it's an engaging story about good leadership, excellent teamwork, exploring oneself and dealing with new experiences. Absolutely delightful!
Stormy Weather first aired on December 23, 2021, written by Anne Cofell Saunders & Brandon Schultz, and directed by Jonathan Frakes
Do you think Kirk had Spock's sensor viewer moved farther up his console so he'd have to stand up and show off his booty every time he scanned something
"The Alternative Factor" #StarTrek TOS (1967) https://bit.ly/47D69JO
Kirk wants fucks, not poetry, and Spock is there to provide in "The Alternative Factor" #StarTrek TOS (1967) https://bit.ly/47D69JO
Oh wait facts
Ahoy, fellow Hotboxers! https://buff.ly/3ZFn2Se
Joy of Trek listener Kaleb recommended "The Alternative Factor" from #StarTrek TOS (1967), a rare ep where William Shatner is out-hammed, who specifically pointed out Lieutenant Charline Masters as a highlight of this oft-overlooked story.
Thanks Kaleb!
Guess which episode we're discussing on the podcast today, go on, GUESS
Thanks to Alex for the recommendation, who has a soft spot for this episode. It's a wonderfully bonkers off the wall concept pulled off in a fun way. Flying viruses as big as you head? Why not? Trek's done crazier. And plus it features Janeway going full Ellen Ripley. What's not to love?
Couldn't agree more!
This week the Joy Boys discuss the amazing Observer Effect (ENT S4 E11), munching handfuls of sonambutrill and prepping for first contact in 5000 years!
Thanks to Nazzy for the excellent recommendation for one of the best Bottle Shows we've ever seen on Star Trek!
Observer Effect first aired on January 21, 2005, written by Garfield Reeves-Stevens & Judith Reeves-Stevens, and directed by Mike Vejar
