Upper Pylon 2 – 1 x 09: The Passenger

Posted by on 3:23 am in Podcast Episodes, Upper Pylon 2 | 0 comments

Upper Pylon 2 – 1 x 09: The Passenger

This week on Upper Pylon 2, we are joined by our first UK guest, Simon (aka funkysi1701) as we take a look at the Bashir-centric “mystery” episode, “The Passenger.”

When a former prisioner, Rao Vantika (a name you’ll hear COUNTLESS times throughout the episode) is killed, his pursuer believes that the late murderer is not really dead, and continues her investigation at DS9 while an important shipment is scheduled to arrive. Will Vantika reappear, and if so, who will he appear as? Well, if you’ve seen the opening of the episode, it really isn’t all that hard to deduce. But join the UP2 crew as we dissect this little caper.

As always, be sure to leave us your feedback about the episode!

Data must convince a colony of 15,000 people to evacuate before the aliens who own the planet arrive. 14,999 may want to leave, but the colony leader, a guy who looks like Eddie Wilson in Eddie and the Cruisers, says otherwise.

Today James and Lou discuss (Episode) and what we think of it and much more as well as listener feedback.

Upper Pylon 2 – 1 x 08: Dax

This week on Upper Pylon 2, Sarah (aka Sareki) and yours truly (Admiral Hansen) rejoin the Upper Pylon 2 crew to discuss the first Jadzia-centric episode of the series, “Dax”.

Jadzia is put on trial to determine if she can be held liable for a murder that was committed when the symbiont was carried by its previous host, Curzon. It’s a tale of mystery, complete with philosophical ponderings and the revelation of a torrid love affair. All this, complete with creepy PAJ action to start us off! Will Jadzia be held liable for the accusations lobbied at Curzon? But more importantly, will she be acquitted in the Upper Pylon 2 Court of Law?

Tune in to find out, and as always, be sure to leave us your feedback!

Ten Forward Episode #152 – Robert “Techno” Reyes’ Ship Wreck Trek

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring’d with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Movie Review – The Battle Bridge

As Adm. James T. Kirk (William Shatner) and Capt. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) monitor trainees at Starfleet Academy, another vessel from the United Federation of Planets is about to try out the planet-creating Genesis Device in a seemingly deserted portion of space. In the process, two of Kirk’s officers are captured by Khan (Ricardo Montalban), an enemy Kirk thought he’d never see again. Once more, Kirk takes the Enterprise’s helm, where he meets Khan’s ship in an intergalactic showdown.

Today James and Lou discuss (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan) and what we think of it.
