Ten Forward: Episode 200 Pt1 – TOS Season Three Desert Island Trek *WARNING: EXPLICIT CONTENT*
Ten Forward: Episode 200 Pt1 – TOS Season Three Desert Island Trek *WARNING: EXPLICIT CONTENT*
Way back in the distant past Evil Dan proposed an idea whereby Chris and Matt had to pick their worst 5 episodes of DS9 Season 5 and shipwreck them. On that episode Sina mentioned that she had not seen season 3 of TOS so Matt challenged her and Firbob to pick their TOS Season 3 Desert Island Trek. This is considered to be the worst season of any Star Trek so it is no easy task… for Sina. Firbob is more of a TOS fan so it should be easy for him right?
Joining them in their quest for the impossible is team Firbob’s team boring team mate, Jarman. Team Evil’s sole member, Evil Dan. Team Awesome have a full complement with Matt and Chris.
So listen on and see if you agree with their appraisal or rant. However be prepared for Sina’s potty mouth.

Upper Pylon 2 – 3 x 11: Past Tense, Part I
This week while Chief Medical Officer Blair and Admiral Hansen are on shore leave, the remaining UP2 crew take a look at the first entry into the prophetic “Past Tense” time-traveling two-parter.
While beaming down for an engagement at Starfleet Command, Sisko, Dax and Bashir are accidentally transported to the year 2024 through the magic of time particles, or some such. The year is a volatile period in Earth’s history, with sanctuary districts rounding up and throwing the homeless, jobless, and mentally ill into internment camps. While Sisko and Bashir are taken to a sanctuary district, Dax attempts to reunite with them with the help of a 21st century entrepreneur. Meanwhile, the Defiant crew are desperately trying to locate their missing crewmembers.
Tune in to find out our thoughts, and as always, be sure to leave your thoughts in our feedback section!
Ten Forward Episode: 197 – The Many Facets of Naked Bliss
This week, Sina, Not-So-Evil-Dan & Carnivorous Chris Johnson delve deeply into three episodes where the crew is acting damned irregular. What did the character’s wacky mind trips teach them? Or us? What opportunities were missed? Why are Tasha Yar’s quarters full of dick statues?
These questions and more get answered as we float downstream on the great inebreation continuum (with Sina as the designated rower).
Upper Pylon 2 – 3 x 10: Fascination
This week, the boys of UP2 take a look at the return of Lwaxana Troi and a very “Midsummer Night’s Dream”-esque story in “Fascination.”
DS9 sees the celebration of the annual Bajoran Gratitude Festival, bringing many visitors to the station including Lwaxana Troi and Vedek Bariel. However, mysterious occurrences start happening as people are seemingly inflicted with intense passionate feelings for what seems like random people. What or who could be behind this?
Meanwhile, O’Brien deals with the temporary return of Keiko and Molly to the station, and his marriage hits a rough patch.
Let us know what you thought of this episode!
Reunion, TNG S4 E07 Review, The Battle Bridge
Captain Picard is selected to arbitrate the selection of a new Chancellor for the Klingon Empire and, in doing so, find out who dishonorably murdered the old Chancellor. Also involved is Ambassador K’Ehleyr, who has a surprise for Worf: their son.
Today James and Lou discuss (Reunion) and what we think of it, as well as feedback, with tonight’s guest host Bryan Detamore.

Sci Fi Waffle – Episode 29 – Thunderbirds 1965 TV Series Review
Due to a technical failure the original Episode 29 was lost and will be re-recorded and posted as Episode 30.
So here is a hastily put together show reviewing the 1965 TV series Thunderbirds. I hope you enjoy it.

Voyager’s Continuing Missions: Protectors
This month we tackle Beyer’s first novel where all our characters are physically present in the storyline, and no one has to die to progress the story. It’s all here, in it’s 4 hour glory, Protectors!
Episode #198 – An Engineer & an Attorney Walk Into the Bar
Sina is joined at the bar by Sarah and Caroline with Continuing Missions – we discuss progressive (and not so progressive) moments in Voyager and meander into other series while we have a few drinks. Join us with your choice of adult beverage.
Upper Pylon 2 – 3 x 09: Defiant
This week on UP2, we make room for the unexpected as Commander Riker pays a visit to DS9 in “Defiant.”
When Will Riker arrives on the station for some R&R, he becomes friendly with a frazzled Major Kira. But wait…is that Will Riker? Why is he stealing the Defiant and taking Kira as a hostage? What does he really have in store?
Tune in to find out, and as always, be sure to leave us your feedback!
Upper Pylon 2 – 3 x 08: Meridian
This may be the shortest episode on record of UP2, as we could barely muster up enough enthusiasm to talk about the sleaze-fest known as “Meridian.”
During a mapping mission in the Gamma Quadrant, the Defiant discovers a planet that phases in and out of existence every 60 years. This leads to one of those one-episode romances between Dax and some creeper that we all love so much.
Meanwhile, Quark tries desperately to get a holo-profile of Kira to sell to a seedy alien for his own pleasure. Is your skin crawling yet?
So…what did you think of this episode? This ought to be a doozy, and we would love to hear from you!

Upper Pylon 2 – Feedback for Tribunal
Melissa and Chris J. sit down and take a very simple statement from a fan, and then meander about as far away from it as they possibly can, for an entire hour, before finally settling back into the main point. This is what happens when you mix drinks with feedbackin’. Enjoy.
