If last week's episode of LOWER DECKS gave us the "triple threat girls trip" then this week might best be described as the "triple threat Lwaxana Troi episode." It's the crew of the Cerritos versus not one, but THREE crazy ladies from Betazed! Of course with this being LOWER DECKS it isn't quite what it looks like so grab a stool at the ship's bar and let's discuss.

When the Cerritos picks up some undercover Betazoid woo girls for an Uber mission, the celebration in the mess hall starts getting pretty intense. But as T'Lyn searches for the true cause of everyone's psychosis, Boimler gets put through the security team's program. What's the brand promise of the Royal Sonesta?

This show introduced us to some of the most iconic characters in television history and took us on a journey through space that we'll never forget. Today, we'll be diving into the characters of TNG and discussing some of our favorite moments from the show. So, without further ado, let's begin! First up, we have the captain of the USS Enterprise - Jean-Luc Picard. Picard is one of the most respected and admired characters in the Star Trek franchise, and for good reason. He's a natural leader, a brilliant strategist, and an all-around great guy. Some of our favorite moments with Picard include his interactions with Q, the time he was assimilated by the Borg, and his epic speeches about the importance of exploration and discovery. Next up, we have the ship's first officer - Commander William Riker. Riker is known for his charming personality, his incredible trombone skills, and his love of jazz. He's also a fantastic leader in his own right and has saved the ship on more than one occasion. Some of our favorite Riker moments include his relationship with Troi, his beard (of course), and his epic trombone duet with Data. Speaking of Data, he's our next character on the list. Data is an android who is fascinated by human behavior and strives to become more human himself. He's also incredibly intelligent and has saved the ship and its crew countless times. Some of our favorite Data moments include his attempts at humor, his friendship with Geordi, and his exploration of his own programming and limitations. Geordi La Forge is the chief engineer of the Enterprise, and he's also one of our favorite characters. He's a brilliant engineer who can fix just about anything, and he's also incredibly kind and compassionate. Some of our favorite Geordi moments include his relationship with Data, his ability to see through his VISOR, and his friendship with Barclay. Deanna Troi is the ship's counselor, and she's also half-Betazoid, which means she has empathic abilities. Troi is a warm and compassionate character who always puts the well-being of her patients first. Some of our favorite Troi moments include her relationship with Riker, her ability to sense danger, and her strong connection to her mother, Lwaxana. Worf is the ship's chief security officer, and he's also the only Klingon on board. Worf is a fierce warrior who takes his job seriously, but he's also a complex character who struggles with his identity and his place in the universe. Some of our favorite Worf moments include his relationships with other Klingons, his love for prune juice, and his epic battles with the Borg.
Brace yourself, it's a Deana Troi heavy episode! What, wait? Last episode she was literally doing zero on the bridge, and the episode before that… hey, why don't they give this empath something to do?A fellow Betazoid, Tam Elbrun (good name, Great Bird!), who is also mentally unstable, comes onboard to help save a sentient star ship from being space-fried in a supernova. Hold on to your writer's room because this dude has a history a mile long! Did you know he was part of a failed first contact mission in which a bunch of Starfleet people done died? Did you know that a couple of those diers were friends of Commander Riker? And, did you also know that Elbrun's empathery is so much stronger than Deana Troi's that he can't help but hear all the voices in his head coming from the Enterprise crew? He can't get that kid Harry and his compulsion to carve dolphins out of his mind, and hey, did you know Worf has a young ward living in his cabin – a Jeremy Aster – What the fuck? Elbrun can only find peace when peering into the mind of his new bestie Data! Hold on, I thought you said this was a Deana Troi episode!Even more available at: https://tngeez.com

Autistic representation in Star Trek “Perhaps you're just different,” Tam Elbrun tells Data in the Next Generation episode “Tin Man.” “Not a sin, you know, though you may have heard otherwise.” Both characters—the emotionally sensitive Betazoid and the supposedly emotionless android—have been seen by fans as allegories of a particular kind of difference, standing in for those on the broad spectrum of neurodiversity. In this episode of Primitive Culture, host Duncan Barrett is joined by autistic Star Trek fan Thad Hait to discuss how Trek has encoded the experiences of neurodiverse people—often accidentally—over the course of its long history. Looking at characters such as Data, Seven of Nine, Reginald Barclay, and Sylvia Tilly, we consider how Starfleet's approach to difference both mirrors and differs from our own, and ask whether the time is ripe for Trek's first explicitly neurodiverse character.

Ready for excitement? Adventure? Going boldly and all that? Well, too bad because the Enterprise D is busy hosting negotiations over access to a supposedly stable wormhole. Little do they know, one of the negotiators is ¼ Betazoid, the smarmy Devononi Ral, a professional player who has his eyes set on another prize as well, our beloved Counselor Troi. Ral and Troi engage in a tepid affair while Paramount dives into its archive of cloying background music. Hijinks ensue as the Ferengi crash the negotiations and poison the Federation's representative. Time for Imzadi Number One to step in and represent the Federation, adding a hefty dose of posturing to the proceedings. Will Troi leave the Enterprise to join Ral in his sleazy adventures? Will Data and Geordi be stuck in the Delta Quadrant when the wormhole collapses? Will someone please make this episode end? Find out in this exciting episode of ST:TNGeez!
Schwarze Augen blinzeln uns entgegen. Heute blicken wir zum Planeten Betazed. Unsere Gedanken schweifen nicht nur zu Deanna und Lwaxana Troi. Wer sind die Betazoid*innen und wie kam es dazu?
Tin Man! Picard, crew, and some annoying Betazoid jerk decide to find a big living alien spaceship that's named "Tin Man" for purely metaphorical reasons. It kinda looks like a big blunt, which is appropriate since we recorded this episode on 4/20. It also looks like a gigantic turd, I hope that's not a metaphor for the episode or something.

It's the moment at least SOME of you have probably been waiting for...SSHB has made it to not only the most infamous "Voyager" episode, but possibly one of the most infamous "Trek" episodes in general. Yes, we're talking "Threshold" this week! What do we think about Tom Paris's adventure into Infinite Velocity that leads to some really junky evolutionary science? Listen to find out! After that, we spend way too long talking about the filmography of Brad Dourif when he shows up to play a sociopath Betazoid in the deeply twisted "Meld"! Also this week: coke and coffee, screaming at Janeway from behind a forcefield, and character transformations! [Timestamps: "Threshold": 3:37; "Meld": 41:19; Blogtivity: 1:08:00] [Blog link: https://sshbpodcast.tumblr.com/post/677656292079419392/making-a-case-for-threshold-character]
For the season premiere of Deep Space X, Cmdr. Aster, Dr. Tamura, Dal Boket, and the Betazoid security officer, Lt. Emai, interrogate the first ever captive Breen prisoner. Known as Kiet the Shunned, he is an exile of the Breen Confederacy and rival of Aster.
Things get therapeutic this week, as Phillipe reveals why this was his favorite episode of TNG as a lonely kid dreaming of being part of something bigger. Thinking about being part of something bigger naturally leads to an extended digression about Voltron, Jetfire, and the fictional vehicles of our youth. The nostalgia vibes are strong as we remember Knight Rider, Airwolf, The A-Team (apologies in advance for the bad Mr. T impressions), and...The Love Bug?Meanwhile, Matt gets a factoid about Betazoid eyes wrong (we eagerly await your outraged tweets!), Phillipe and Matt geek out about old Starlogs, Shawn reviews a live Beach Boys concert, and Minh nearly derails the show describing something called Downtown Abbey.

Betazoid pon farr, fish people, voyeuristic pets, a bad MLK analogy, self-loathing, "Now my finger smells like Tiberius". This episode's got some takes, and only half of them come from Warped crew member Minh. He regrets so much! But Erin comes in like White Gandalf on Shadowfax to restore some semblance of right to the world.Meanwhile, look forward to Warped's new line of signature fragrances and body odours, coming to you sometime in the near/far future. This episode's scent pairing ("Stardate") is dedicated to Minh himself."Stardate. Skillful and mysterious like 007 James Bond if he chose an eternal, unrequited Pon Farr. Apply to the bare midriff that doesn't change when you sit down (humble brag!). Pairs well with White Russians. Warning: opossums are attracted to this fragrance."

Jen joins me for NaPodPoMo day two. Jen is very empathic, Force sensitive (still honing her Force-wielding skills), allegedly not a Betazoid (yes, I said “Betazed” in the recording; I will never live it down), and is feeling the country’s anxiety the night before Election Day 2020. I asked Jen a series of mostly random … + Read More

When Captain Sisko steals an ancient stone tablet from Bajor, it becomes a problem both diplomatically and conversationally. But when he decides the relic belongs smashed on the ground and not in a museum, its destruction triggers an ancient conflict that threatens Major Kira, Jake, and the station itself. What does the Betazoid military wear to battle? Why are people buying one-armed busts? How old is too old for a trundle bed? It's the episode that serves up the jokes hot and ready!

Star Trek Nemesis has a reputation for being a bad movie, and I won't dispute that, but it's important in terms of setup because this is the last time we saw Picard and his crewmates. So let's take another look at this movie and see what we make of it. Join me as I count down the 10 episodes and movies you should watch before Star Trek Picard. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AdamDavidCollings ----more---- Transcript Welcome to Nerd Heaven.I’m Adam David Collings. The author of Jewel of the Stars.And I am a nerd. This is episode 9 of the podcast and the second last instalment of the 10 episodes and movies that you should watch before star trek Picard Today, we’re looking at Star Trek Nemesis.A lot of people don’t like Nemesis. Let’s be honest, it’s the bottom of the barrel.I’ve joked in recent episodes that it’s “the movie everyone hates,” but I will freely acknowledge that there may be people who like this movie, and good on ‘em. There are some movies that many people hate, which I love, such as Batman V Superman, and I don’t like it when people comment that everybody hates that movie, because it’s just not true.So, if you Like Nemesis, I think that’s awesome. I’m not going to do an in-depth rundown of every little thing I think is wrong with this movie. Others have done that. If you’re interested in that kind of analysis, check out the video Star Trek Nemesis Lamentation by the youTuber Lorerunner. He does a much better job of it than I could. I will point out some issues along the way, but I’ll also try to point out some positives. So if this isn’t a well-loved movie, why am I talking about it? Well, it’s actually very important for Star Trek Picard. This movie is where we last saw the TNG characters, Picard in particular. This movie wraps up their stories. We already know from the trailer that Picard is acknowledging the things that happened in Nemesis. It’s picking up on these characters and showing us what has become of them since this movie ended. The IMDB description for this movie reads The Enterprise is diverted to the Romulan homeworld Romulus, supposedly because they want to negotiate a peace treaty. Captain Picard and his crew discover a serious threat to the Federation once Praetor Shinzon plans to attack Earth. And this movie first appeared in cinemas on the 13th of December 2002 Engage. Jerry Goldsmith wrote the music for this movie. He creates some extremely memorable themes in First contact and Insurrection. But nothing in the music stands out to me in Nemesis.The new big-screen version of the Romulan city, which we’ve seen previously as a painting, looks fantastic.This movie is the first mention we get of the planet Remus since the TOS episode Balance of Terror, which introduced the Romulans.This movie established that the planet Remus was home to another sentient species, the remans. That’s interesting, although funny they’ve never been mentioned, but then Starfleet doesn’t know a lot about the inner works of the Romulan star episode.I imagine that when the proto-Vulcans first arrived in this part of space, they subjugated the remans, who became the first subjects of the Romulan empire The face-melting scene as all the senators die was reasonably well done. Suitable creep and gross. Then we get the wedding scene. I really liked this. Riker and Troi are finally married. About time.Picard’s best man speech is suitable amusing, as well as emotional. It’s a nice character moment.And we get little cameo appearances from Guinan and Wesley. It was very nice to see Guinan again for the first time since Generations. Amusing that she’s been married 23 times. The Wesley thing is jarring by the lack of explanation. They cut most of his scenes When last we saw him, he left Starfleet to journey with the traveller. Now he’s back and in uniform. But, I’ve seen those cut scenes, and honestly, it was pretty weak. Apparently, he was off to be a junior engineer on a second rate ship. Probably best they cut it.Guinan mentions that Romulan ale is illegal. That bothers me because the trade sanction was lifted during the dominion war. I suppose it’s possible they re-instated it, but that’s the problem. This movie fails to acknowledge the changed relationship between the federation and the Romulans that happened as they were forced to work as allies against the dominion.And that annoys the heck out of me. Also, why is Worf on the enterprise? When last we saw HIM he had also left Starfleet to become federation ambassador to the Klingon empire. Now he’s back, in uniform and apparently serving on the enterprise. The explanation for his presence in First contact was great. The explanation in Insurrection was a total cop-out (Picard asks what the hell are you doing here) and we don’t hear his answer. In this movie, they don’t even acknowledge it. This irks me. Worf doesn’t want to be naked at the official wedding ceremony on Betazed (all guests are naked at traditional Betazoid weddings).Picard seems to think the reason someone would not want to be naked is because of their physique, that they may not have enough muscles.If I had to be naked in public, it’s not my physique I’d be worried about exposing.I REALLY feel to Worf here. He’s essentially ordered to ignore his feelings of modesty. And that sucks. In fact, Worf has only been used for un-funny comic relief so far in this movie. There’s nothing inherently bad about the B4 plot in this movie, except that it’s been done before. B4 just feels like an inferior copy of Lore. The stuff on the planet isn’t bad. The new shuttle looks pretty cool. And the dune buggy is kinda cool. Patrick Stewart looks like he’s having a ball. The over-exposed film is supposed to make the planet look alien. It doesn’t quite work for me.Funny how we first meet B5 in pieces. That’s exactly how we see him in the trailer for Star Trek Picard.Then the aliens show up. They look pretty cool. Especially considering we only see them very briefly. Nice effort.So much for the prime directive. Worf is shooting at them. Too bad if one of them died in the crash.I really enjoy the little appearance by Admiral Janeway. It makes good sense to me that she would be admiral now. After 7 years in the Delta Quadrant, she would probably welcome a desk job. Picard, on the other hand, ahs always wanted to remain on the bridge of his ship. (although we know he’ll eventually accept a promotion to Admiral as well.) Geordi asks Data how he feels about giving B4 all his memories.Data replies “I feel nothing.”Seriously? Is this season 1 Data? In my opinion, it was a mistake to ignore the emotion chip. Michael Piller wasn’t a fan and wrote that Data “left it behind” in Insurrection.In this movie, well, it’s like the chip never existed.All that character development undone. Shinzon’s ship, the scimitar looks pretty cool. Very mean. This is where the movie starts to drag.They beam onto the Scimitar and meet Shinzon, who surprisingly is not Reman, but human. A clone of Picard.The reveal is long and drawn out. Especially so given that the reveal falls completely flat because Tom Hardy doesn’t look like Patrick Stewart. Shinzon’s backstory is moderately interesting. I like how the plan to replace Picard was abandoned due to a change of government. Very believable. So he’s promising peace, but Picard doesn’t trust him. And He has a very dangerous weapon on board, based on Thalaron radiation.Shinzon’s viceroy tells him he’s wasting time. And I tend to agree. Get on with the story, guys. Ugh. and then we get the rape scene.First Shinzon wastes time having dinner with Picard, trying to convince him he wants peace.Then he decides to telepathically rape Deanna.WHAT?Are you telling me that if Picard had suffered a harsher upbringing, he’d be a rapist?This is creepy, and not in a good way.So B4 is Shinzon’s spy. Ok. Beverly’s new medical tricorder looks really good. Finally, it has a full-sized screen. About time. A tricorder is, after all, a scanning device, so it should have a decent-sized screen. One hour into the movie, things finally begin to happen.Picard is kidnapped, beamed aboard the scimitar.And Shinzon proceeds to detail his entire plan. It was a nice little moment when B4 comes in to see Picard and it turns out to be Data, here to rescue him. There’s a fun little action scene where they fly an attack shuttle through the corridors of the scimitar. A little silly, but fun. So, Picard was abducted, told all about Shinzon’s plan, and then rescue.And I’m left wondering, what was the point of it all?This story still hasn’t really done anything. It amuses me that Shinzon’s Romulan supporters keep criticising him for delaying. I find myself agreeing with them. Beverly finally explains what’s going on. Shinzon is dying because of a defect in his DNA. He needs a complete transfusion from Picard, the only one with compatible DNA.The plot of this movie isn’t just slow and uninteresting, it’s very convoluted. So, Shinzon asks the federation to send a ship. Then he has this big speech about wanting peace. All of this just so he can use Picard to heal himself. Luck the enterprise happened to be the closest ship.But when got his hands on Picard, after wasting time with dinner and drinks, he doesn’t take Picard’s blood. No, instead, he reveals his plan to attack the federation and then walks out of the room.And why does he want to attack the federation anyway?He has zero motivation for that. The Thaleron weapon is actually quite interesting.With their cloak, they can fly past every federation ship and kill the entire crew. They’ll never even know what hit them.That’s terrifying. I’m going to backpedal a bit on what I said about the music. Sure, there’s nothing in it as memorable as First contact or insurrection, but there’s still some reasonably good music. There’s a little thematic stuff between Data and Picard, comparing Shinzon with B4. It’s not a lot, but it’s something. I don’t mind the new design for the Romulan warbirds. And I like the green nebula in the background during the space battle.It’s clever how they use Troi’s empathic abilities to find the scimitar. Kind of gives her a little revenge for the mind rape. The Romulans join the fight against Shinzon and the Remans board the Enterprise.Worf comments to Riker that “The Romulans fought with honour.”That’s a big deal coming from Worf. He has always viewed the Romulans as being without honour.So nice touch there. I like the scene when the bride gets hit and the whole front window gets blown away. Bye-bye viewscreen. That was nicely done. Picard beats Shinzon by being unpredictablePicard actually knows Shinzon much better than Shinzon known Picard. Because Picard has his whole life to look back on, whereas, Shinzon has never been the person Picard is. He hasn’t gotten there yet. And I like that. Ramming the enterprise into the scimitar seems a pretty extreme thing to do. I sure hope they had time to evacuate the forward sections of the saucer.The crash itself looks pretty cool. Not as cool as the Enterprise D crashing on Veridian III, but still cool.And you probably noticed that Troi was at the helm when it happened.We’ve seen her at the helm of the Enterprise twice. The first time, she crashed the enterprise. The second, she rams it into another ship. Now, you could argue that neither was her fault, and in fact, the second time was a deliberate act, but still. It’s not a good flight record. But what does the ramming accomplish? It doesn’t stop Shinzon.Shinzon says “some ideas are worth dying for, aren’t they Jean-Luc.”In Picard’s case, yes, he’s willing to sacrifice his life and his crew to prevent Shinzon from destroying the federation.What is Shinzon sacrificing his life for? Killing the Enterprise crew, who were going to self-destruct themselves anyway, to destroy the scimitar. He won’t be around to kill anyone else after that. Maybe he thinks he’ll survive his sickness long enough to fix his ship and use his weapon on earth. I dunno.So I’m not getting a sense of his motivations. It doesn’t make any sense. So anyway, data uses the mobile transporter thing, which was foreshadowed earlier in the episode, to beam Picard to safety, and sacrifices himself to save everyone else. This is an emotional moment.Data’s wake is a good scene. I like how it calls all the way back to Encounter at Farpoint.Brent Spiner has explained that he felt he was getting too old to play Data and thought that a death scene would be a fitting way to farewell the character. Interesting that now, in the age of digital de-ageing, he’s going to reprise the role again. I also like when we see the shot of The Enterprise is spacedock, Goldsmith calls back to his slower arrangement of the motion picture/next generation theme, just like he used in that first movie. Fortunately, this panning shot of the ship doesn’t go for 15 minutes. Nice little moment between Riker and Picard as they part ways. Riker off to captain his own ship. The closing scene with B4 is ambiguous. He clearly doesn’t understand what Picard is trying to teach him, but then he starts singing blue skies. It seems something of Data may have survived in B4. So that’s where we leave our friends. Riker and Troi have left for their own ship, Data is dead, and the rest are presumably remaining with Picard on the Enterprise, which needs a major refit. Oh, and B4 has been re-activated, at least temporarily, by Picard. But from what we understand from Brent Spiner’s comments about the trailer, B4 has been disassembled again and placed in storage. I’m keen to know the story there. So that was Star Trek Nemesis. I’m sorry I didn’t find more positive things to say about it. Even though I wasn’t really keen on this movie, I’m glad that the new Picard show is picking up on elements from the movie.You see, this movie wasn’t the great send-off for TNG that we’d hoped for, not like Star Trek 6 was for TOS.So I’m very glad that the new show is going to give us a new (and surely better) send-off for at least some of these beloved characters. I’m really looking forward to finding out what happens next. It’s gonna be a wild ride. Well, we’ve only got one more movie left to watch before Picard.It’s JJ Abram’s Star Trek 2009, which is actually 10 years old now. Can you believe that?While most of the movie takes place in an alternate timeline, it establishes a very significant event that will have huge ramifications for the prime timeline, especially Picard. See you next.Live long and prosper.Make it so
On our FINAL teaser - It's movie time! We review Star Trek: Nemesis, the last time we've seen the crew before the new Star Trek Picard show. We talk about the action, the comedy, the actors, the makeup, getting sucked out into space, and why you never mess with the break room refrigerator. (and more!)

Gomtuu, the living ship, is so lonely it could literally die. Tam Elbrun, the most annoying Betazoid in the galaxy with possibly the worst pants ever, wants to be BFFs, though. What's a giant space-dwelling sunflower seed to do? Where do you talk dogs for walksies on starships? Do Klingons like RPGs, or love RPGs? Does the USS Hood's night crew got the right stuff? It's time for a pod with at least twice as much Crewman Daniels than normal!
It's tempting to sweep into these show notes like a certain loudmouthed Betazoid and start spreading pate related puns, but it just doesn't feel right. This is a beautiful hour of television and y'all all deserve to go watch it unspoilered. Really the very best that Star Trek has to offer.

Not too long ago we celebrated the splashy television launch of the good ship Voyager. Now it's time to dive into more classic Delta Quadrant craziness! This week hosts Cam Smith and Tyler Orton, along with special guest Dale Deruiter of the Outrage Factory podcast, find themselves battling tooth and nail to survive the show's first epic cliffhanger saga Basics. While perhaps not as iconic as later double-length episodes, there's no shortage of highlights in this season two finale/season three premiere, from combustible Seska/Kazon drama to the end of Betazoid psycho Lon Suder's tormented arc. In addition, the trio debate both the writing staff's treatment of aboriginal characters and the dubious merits of 1996 CGI reptiles, as well as scratch their heads over Tuvok's formal archery education.

Lon Suder. It's Murder on the Delta Quadrant Express! The second-season Voyager episode "Meld" may not have been much of a murder mystery, since the whodunnit is resolved so quickly. "Meld," however, introduced us to one of the most memorable characters in all of Star Trek: Voyager, the not-quite-empathetic and disturbingly intense Betazoid, crewman Lon Suder. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Kay Shaw, Suzanne Williamson, and Zachary Fruhling, along with Lieutenant Tuvok, take a deep dive inside the mind of Lon Suder. Do they find that everyone contains a tiny bit of Lon Suder inside? And is every Lon Suder perhaps really a mild-mannered botanist at heart?

It's only logical that Jacqueline Lopez and Jennifer Zhang would try to mind meld before reviewing the episode of Star Trek: Voyager where Tuvok uses his Vulcan mind magic on a murderous psychopath. Do they succeed? The wine certainly makes them think so. It's Star Trek: Voyager meets "The X-Files" meets "Se7en" on this week's episode, where space DNA is used to solve space crimes, Janeway is Clarice Starling, and what's in the box is a really, really effed-up Betazoid. But what's in the inbox? Hopefully an email from you: engage@sevenofwine.com
When the Entrepreneur finds another broken down scout ship, Barclay's clever plan to get over to the ship doesn't go unpunished. Thrown into a paralyzing inner struggle, the only way the young lieutenant can confront his fear of being swept up in the matter stream is by grabbing onto a turd for dear life. When was the last time Reg or Miles used conditioner? Where are the admirals who have been in the shit? Did Barclay take a page from the Chaotic Bro playbook? It's the episode that will trigger a deluge of complaints from the Betazoid alternative medicine community.

Oooh, Lwaxana! Yep, it's come to this - everyone's favorite Betazoid shows up on DS9! In an episode that isn't nearly as bad as we remembered, we manage to call Gene Roddenberry a scumbag (again), argue about the Golden Girls, and discuss presidential impeachments. Plus, Ben gets Poey's goat, and somehow, we find time to talk about the actual plot. We're really, really, really, sorry.
The Enterprise is being dragged to its doom by two-dimensional creatures headed to a destructive cosmic string. Time with Counselor Troi might help us deal, but she has her own problems.

Gender BenderThe Next Generation was lead by Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his mostly male crew of officers. In this episode of Earl Grey, the trio gain inspiration from the IDW "Star Trek" comic book series called "Parallel Lives"that "flipped" the genders of the JJ-verse cast. How would the Enterprise-D's adventures unfold with Captain Jean Picard and her crew?Daniel, Darren, and Phillip beam aboard Jarrah Hodge (co-host, "Women at Warp") to analyze the main and secondary characters of Next Gen under a "gender bender" thought experiment. Whether it's Commander Riker - a first officer who echoes Captain Phillipa Louvois ("The Measure of a Man") or her long-lost love Dean E. Troi - a sensitive Betazoid who is not only in touch with his feelings, but in touch with everyone else's. Earl Grey, along with Jarrah, analyze what characteristics would have remained the same if the sexes had been switched, what stereotypes may have been challenged, and how Suzie Plakson's Q would have made for quite a different "encounter." From uniform to name changes, and everything in between, join Earl Grey in this "gender bender" episode that imagines a parallel universe for the crew of TNG.

Michael and I talk about the week of games, the week to come, more draft, and more thinking towards the future. Oh, and I fail to ambush Michael not once, as "Mikestrodamus" proves unflappable. Whatever. Next time I'll ask him about Star Trek. Dude probably doesn't know the difference between a Betazoid and a Bajoran. Loser.
