29. Januar 1997: Nach einem Shuttle-Absturz sind Captain Janeway und Chakotay in einer Zeitschleife gefangen – so scheint es zunächst, nur schlägt die Episode einen Haken und die Voyager-Chefin sitzt in einer anderen Phase fest, wo sie durch Wände und Ocampa gehen kann. Doch halt! Eigentlich heißt es für sie "Willkommen im Leben nach dem Tode", wo sie ihr Vater, bekannt aus dem Roman Mosaic, begrüßt. In Deutschland: Der Wille, ausgestrahlt am 7. August 1998.
In the Star Trek: Voyager episose Renaissance Man, The Doctor doesn't quite seem himself. In fact, he seems like just about everyone else on the senior staff. But the impersonations are part of a high-stakes mission: rescue Captain Janeway from a hostile alien race despite her veryspecific orders not to. It's EMH meets ECH meets identity crisis when Renaissance Man goes into the Mission Log.

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating welcome guest Robert Beltran into the D-Con Chamber this week. Our audience will know him well as the steadfast executive officer of the Starship Voyager on its 7 year expedition home. We take our own trip through his career, traversing that cult classic film "Eating Raoul", his impressive stage oeuvre, and the process of landing the role of Captain Janeway's number one. Each week, we explore and celebrate the lives that the Star Trek universe has forever changed. From former and future cast and crew members to celebrities, scientists, and astronauts whose personal and professional journeys have been affected by the franchise, we sit down and dive deep with a new friend, laughing and learning from their stories. Sit back, grab a drink, and join our hosts, Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer, as we get geeky in The D-Con Chamber.Let's get social! -
In „Last Flight of the Protostar, Part 2“ geht's hoch her: Ein Dampfmeer, ein Sturm, eine Crew mit zu viel Mut und zu wenig Treibstoff. Janeway trifft Beverly Crusher, Chakotay philosophiert über Führung, und Dal lernt, dass man manchmal einfach das Seil festhalten muss. Wir reden über Deuterium, Bussard-Kollektoren, den realistischen Unsinn hinter dem Dampfmeer und über den Satz, der alles sagt: „Let's go build a star.“
11. Dezember 1996: Captain Janeway hat einen schlechten Tag: Erst verdirbt sie es sich – Körpersprache sei Dank – mit den Tak Tak, dann wird die Voyager von wild wuchernden Viren überrannt. Doch haben die fliegenden Stachelblobs die Rechnung ohne Action-Kathryn gemacht. Bis an den Dutt bewaffnet will sie ihr Schiff zurückerobern. Indes wird Neelix Botschafter und der Doktor geht auf seine erste Außenmission. In Deutschland: Makrokosmos, ausgestrahlt am 10. Juli 1998.
27. November 1996: Das Q-Kontinuum ist in Aufruhr und wer darf's wieder ausbaden? Logo, Captain Janeway, denn der allgewaltige Lümmel macht ihr nach Superkräften den Hof. Qs intergalaktische Uhr tickt und er will dringend Nachwuchs – nicht aber mit Lady Q, seiner eigentlichen Hin-und-wieder-Lebensgefährtin. Folgerichtig kann diese Beziehungskrise nur in Form des amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs gefochten werden. In Deutschland: Die "Q"-Krise, ausgestrahlt am 3. Juli 1998.
In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Workforce, Captain Janeway's new life comes with decent hours, fair pay, and a promising romantic prospect. There's just one catch: she doesn't remember being Captain Janeway. Most of Voyager's crew have been given new jobs and new identities thanks to some suspiciously convenient amnesia. Is this an alien utopia, or forced labor? Maybe a stranger called "Amal Kotay" can make it all make sense.

RESISTANCE IS NEGOTIABLE? Captain Janeway writes the 24th century edition of The Art of the Deal in which she believes she can negotiate a truce with literally the Borg long enough for Voyager to traverse their territory. The hitch? The Borg are being annihilated by an aggressive species, making time of the essence. Meanwhile, Leonardo da Vinci has some opinion. Bryan is joined by Shereese the Sci Fi Savage (@SciFiSavage) -- will they TREK, MARRY, or KILL this one? The grades begin at (25:32). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Tread Perilously's Star Trek month continues with an episode of Voyager called "Drone." When a close call in the transporter merges Seven of Nine's nano implants with the Doctor's 29th Century holotransmitter, a future Borg gestates in the silence lab. Despite the similarities to the Tuvix incident, Captain Janeway allows it to live and assigns Seven to be its teacher. But when the drone, who self-identifies as One, starts asking difficult questions about the Borg, he defies Seven and reaches out directly. Will she be able to teach him why the Borg are wrong before they assimilate his advanced technologies? Erik and Justin face a standard issue episode of Voyager that might actually be good. They debate the merits of the story, nonetheless, with Erik pointing out four or five Next Generation episodes it emulates. Jeri Ryan continues to be the show's MVP, with Robert Picardo and Tim Russ close behind her. Janeway's choice to allow One to live is examined in light of the reappraisal of "Tuvix." The presence of Bryan Fuller in the writing credits leads to a surprising twist. Harry Kim's future as an eternal ensign becomes text. The pair try to determine which cast members are still engaged in Season 5 and a minor character leads to a larger critique of Voyager as a whole.
We're back and reviewing a three issue arc centered on Captain Janeway doing her best when stranded with some crusty Delta quadrant villains! Join us as we chat about the drama involved. Plus, Tom and Harry are dumb.
18. September 1996: Immer schön vorsichtig sein, wenn man fernab vom Schiff Landeurlaub bucht! Doch oh je, Tom und Harry ereilt Star-Trek-typisches Ungemach, denn sie landen im furchtbarsten Knast des Delta-Quadranten. Ohne Wärter, ohne Tür, ohne Regeln und – am schlimmsten – ohne Hoffnung. Zum Glück für die zwei (und zum Pech für manch andere) entdeckt Captain Janeway ganz neue Seiten an sich. In Deutschland: Das Hochsicherheitsgefängnis, ausgestrahlt am 15. Mai 1998.
We're celebrating Voyager's 30th anniversary all year long, and this week marks a special moment: Kate Mulgrew's 70th birthday! We're looking back at some of Captain Janeway's BEST moments from both Star Trek Voyager and Star Trek Prodigy, along with our friend, Amy Imhoff!From classic Voyager episodes like "Resolutions" and "Night" to defining moments as both a Hologram in "Supernova, Pt.2" and an Admiral in "The Devourer of All Things." Plus, YOUR favorite Janeway moments and episodes, the Strange New Loop, and more on episode 233 of Strange New Pod.Follow Amy:Blue Sky | InstagramFollow the IMAP Space Mission:Instagram | WebSend us a textSupport the show
DADDY DEAD CARE. A shuttle accident puts Captain Janeway on death's doorstep and death is only too happy to answer, taking the face of her dead father. But that's not the only weird thing going on in this fast-paced, wacky episode that concludes The Captain is DEAD! Month on Trek Marry Kill. The grades begin at (33:42).

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, “Good Shepherd,” not everyone on Voyager is cut out for deep space exploration. Captain Janeway takes three misfit crew members on an away mission to help them find their place in the flock, but an alien threat turns their trip into a fight for survival. These wayward "sheep" will have to find their way home when "Good Shepherd" goes into the Mission Log.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, “Good Shepherd,” not everyone on Voyager is cut out for deep space exploration. Captain Janeway takes three misfit crew members on an away mission to help them find their place in the flock, but an alien threat turns their trip into a fight for survival. These wayward "sheep" will have to find their way home when "Good Shepherd" goes into the Mission Log.

In this episode of "ThinkFuture," I dive into a wild story from AIDaily.us about a Chinese company building an AI child—now upgraded from a 3-4-year-old to a 5-6-year-old version. They're calling it AGI, but I'm not buying it. This AI kid even threw a tantrum, pushing back on its “parents” (aka the researchers). But let's be real—it's not feeling emotions; it's just pulling from a database of human reactions to mimic a meltdown. I break down how large language models work, basically recycling human responses, not thinking for themselves. Then I get into the big question: if we make AI companions—like this kid or even a holographic bartender from a Star Trek: Voyager episode—do we want them to have messy, human-like flaws? Or should we tweak them to be perfect? I riff on Captain Janeway's dilemma with her holo-crush, where she almost reprogrammed him to be her dream guy but backed off. Should our future AI buddies have their own personalities, or should they just do what we want? It's a juicy ethical debate for the YouTube crew to chew on!---The First Future Planner: Record First, Action Later: https://foremark.usBe A Better YOU with AI: Join The Community: https://10xyou.usGet AIDAILY every weekday. https://aidaily.usMy blog: https://thinkfuture.com

Steven talks about the impact of Captain Jean-Luc Picard's leadership and the exploration of complex moral dilemmas, philosophical questions, and humanity's evolution.

The iconic Star Trek: Voyager episode "Tuvix" continues to spark ethical debates nearly 30 years after its original airing. In this episode of Superhero Ethics, hosts Matthew and Riki dive deep into one of Star Trek's most morally complex stories, examining Captain Janeway's controversial decision to effectively end one life to restore two others.The hosts explore how the episode's unique twist on the classic trolley problem, where instead of choosing between strangers, the decision involves deeply personal relationships and crew dynamics. They discuss how Janeway's emotional connection to Tuvok and her responsibility as captain influenced her judgment.What role do emotions play in ethical decision-making? The hosts examine how the episode challenges the common practice of trying to divorce emotions from moral choices, particularly through the powerful performances of the cast and the way Tuvix's plea for his life forces the crew to confront their complicity through their silence.Other key topics discussed:The brilliant performance by Tom Wright as Tuvix and how he created a distinct character while incorporating elements of both Tuvok and NeelixHow modern TV storytelling might have handled this plot differentlyThe significance of the doctor's refusal to participate and Janeway's choice to perform the procedure herselfThe show's failure to address the emotional aftermath in subsequent episodesComparisons to other ethical dilemmas in Star Trek and science fictionThe hosts conclude that while they may disagree on whether Janeway made the right choice, the episode's enduring legacy lies in its ability to present a moral dilemma with no clear right answer – one that continues to challenge viewers and spark discussions decades after its original airing. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

LOL (LOSS OF LUNGS). It's the 30th anniversary of Star Trek: Voyager's debut. Bryan & Shereese play Trek Marry Kill with "Phage," the episode that introduces us to the gnarly Vidiians, who mark the occasion by stealing Neelix's lungs!

MINOR BIPEDAL SPECIES? Captain Kathryn Janeway has a problem: in order to save a childlike race of people called the Ocampa, she must strand her ship and crew 70,000 light years from their home quadrant of space, or else risk the Ocampas' future as slaves to the evil Kazon. What is a Starfleet captain to do?This week, Bryan and Kristen grapple with Captain Janeway's decision and a lot of the behind the scenes decision that went into creating Star Trek: Voyager along with "Caretaker," its pilot, specifically. Will this episode fit comfortably into any of our three labels: Trek, Marry, or Kill?
In this episode Chris and Doran discuss the age-old question of whether dark or light roast brewed coffees have more caffeine. The discussion was inspired by a paper published recently in Scientific Reports titled, "Caffeine content in filter coffee brews as a function of degree of roast and extraction yield". So, do light and dark roast coffee extracts have different caffeine concentrations? The paper is open access and available from the publisher: Sci. Rep., 2024, 14, 29126 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-80385-3 Introduction preamble: Captain Janeway.

Tread Perilously's Star Trek Month 2024 continues with the long-delayed episode of Star Trek: Voyager called "Bride of Chaotica!" Tom Paris and Ensign Harry Kim's afternoon playing chapter 18 of "The Adventures of Captain Proton" is disrupted when Voyager runs aground in a "subspace sandbar." It immediately disrupts quality of life systems on the ship and prevents the Holodeck from shutting down Paris's program. Meanwhile, transdimensional aliens materialize in the simulation and assume its 1940s movie serial nature to be real because they are energy-based life-forms. Will Paris figure out a way to communicate or will it fall on Captain Janeway to save the day by becoming the bride of Chaotica? Erik is immediately annoyed to be watching a Tom Paris episode of Voyager. Justin can't help but notice its similarity to a certain episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Episode co-writer Bryan Fuller also makes Erik doubtful it will be able to rise out of its Paris deficit. Justin argues for Garrett Wang to be the true lead in the story. Various 1940s movie serial tropes are examined. Kate Mulgrew gets top marks for understanding the assignment. Tuvok turns out to be a font of deadpan gold. Justin is dismayed by the lack of Robert Picardo and circumstances force a discussion of Neelix.
WHAT THE PARADOX? It's the end of the time loop as we know it and Voyager feels fine -- kinda, sorta.

Meanwhile, Tom Paris and Rain Robinson grow so close that Sarah Silverman has off-screen stories about making out with some of the show's actors during her guest stint; Chakotay & B'Elanna are captured by militiamen; and, The Doctor gains the ability to leave Sickbay, forever altering the character. Ah, but do all these qualities make the episode a TREK, MARRY, or KILL?The grades begin at (20:28).
Alien explorers made up of photonic energy are fascinated by the vivid life playing out on Voyager's holodeck. What they don't know is that they've stumbled into Tom's simulation of "Captain Proton." When the war between photons threatens Voyager's safety, it's time for Captain Janeway to play a new role. Bride of Chaotica goes into the Mission Log. Hosted by John Champion and Jordan Hoffman
The Doctor seems to be having trouble with his memory, and his suspicions about a conspiracy against him turn out to be true. Captain Janeway herself has been tampering with his files, but leaving him alone could cause him to spin completely out of control. Latent Image goes into the Mission Log.
