This episode contains: All three of your co-hosts are back to prove that 500 is just another number. We recorded on Rex Manning Day (you know, from Empire Records) and we missed First Contact Day (you know, from First Contact). Nobody remembers the Genetics Wars (you know, from nothing at all), or was it the Eugenics Wars? But you know what it really was today? It's the Great American Eclipse! “I actually live in the path of totality” - Devon, and like several thousand more people. What kind of bedlam and absolute riot would there be at a ren faire during an eclipse? Shouts of “BURN THE WITCH” and whatever. Ben didn't record last time because he had date night in the middle of Spring Break. Date night did NOT include seeing Dune, but did have terrible service, cold tacos, rain, and allergy medicine. Steven traveled to DisneyLand again (does he, like, live there now?) and there's been some major updates to the tech in the queues for rides. Even with the new games you can play on your phone while waiting for the rides, the Peter Pan queue is just too skinny (it was made for people in the 1950s, and I guess we didn't have an overweight problem in the US back then). Steven's ready for war to never change, cause this upcoming week is the new Fallout TV show. You lucky dogs, reading this in the future… you've probably watched it all, haven't you?    Death comes for us all and other light musings: What happens in the brain during the process of death? A woman named Patient One who suffered cardiac arrest became the subject of a study by neurologist Jimo Borjigin. When Patient One's brain activity was monitored after being taken off life support, unexpected electrical activity was still detected. Devon goes through the historical context on scientific interest in near-death experiences (NDEs) and consciousness after clinical death. More recent technological advances have allowed many more people to be resuscitated after cardiac arrest, providing new opportunities to study what happens in the brain during the dying process. Science may be on the verge of new discoveries about death, consciousness, and the relationship between the mind and brain. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/apr/02/new-science-of-death-brain-activity-consciousness-near-death-experience This odd mindset shift regarding death could cure procrastination forever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FC4jcrB4RHc   What does an eclipse sound like? Once upon a time, there was light in my life / But now there's only love in the dark. (Ben sings it!) An app called Eclipse Soundscapes was developed to help blind and visually impaired people experience solar eclipses. It provides audio descriptions of the eclipse's progress matched to the user's location, and also includes recorded sounds of animals reacting to the dimming light as if night has come, and a "rumble map" feature allowing users to feel the eclipse's stages through vibrations on their smartphone screen. The app aims to make the experience of the eclipse more accessible through multiple senses. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/what-does-eclipse-sound-180964203/ https://eclipsesoundscapes.org/ https://apps.apple.com/us/app/eclipse-soundscapes/id1262152991   Science fiction: Netflix's Three Body Problem has dropped, and it's so Game of Thrones in the best way. Ben presents Star Trek episodes 909 and 910. That's right, Disco is back, baby! And it's a wild Indiana Jones adventure this season, with strong ties back to a Next Generation episode that really should have been revisited a long time ago. Even though Devon and Steven poo-pooed Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire last week, Ben saw it, and he LIKED IT. Kinda weird Ben wasn't excited about Ghostbusters: Afterlife before Steven gave his review of it all those years ago, and this time the tables have flipped. Kumail Nanjiani steals the show in the new Ghostbusters, but have you seen him in The Big Sick? Devon recommends. How do you like the new Science Faction website? It's actually legible! https://sciencefactionpodcast.com/ Next week our book club will cover Just Out of Jupiter's Reach (The Far Reaches collection) by Nnedi Okorafor. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C4QR4SX7

Join us in this episode of OPP, as we delve deep into the enigmatic Mirror Universe, untangling the misconceptions and theories that have puzzled Star Trek fans for years. From the origins of the Terran Empire to the divergence points between the Prime and Mirror Universes, we explore the complex web of speculation surrounding this alternate reality. Every theory from Khan winning the Eugenics Wars to Vulcans having no logic! Set those deflectors to maximum!  Throughout the episode, we critically analyze each theory, drawing on canonical evidence and expert insights to shed light on the mysteries of the Mirror Universe. Join us as we separate fact from fiction and embark on a journey through the multiverse of Star Trek.

Effie and Dave stumble upon a derelict sleeper ship from 1996. Waiting within: the last dictator of the Eugenics Wars–a super human known as Khan. He's got a magnetism, maman. Almost electric.

One of the least discussed and acknowledged periods in US History got its start on March 11, 1880, with the birth of the man, Harry L. Laughlin, who would be among the driving figures in the eugenics movement in the United States. The ideas for which he would advocate included sterilization and would not actually end until well into the 1970s. It all sounds good on the surface – to improve humans through genetics. Today we tend to think of these ideas as the stuff of Nazi history and dystopian science fiction. The hard realization though is that these ideas – that we can eliminate undesirable genetic traits from the gene pool, like many ideas, was a European invention that was snagged onto and improved upon by American idealists. And if you thought that it would be stopped by high minded ideals found in the Constitution, you will be surprised to learn that the Supreme court not only supported and upheld these ideas, but once quipped that “three generations of imbeciles is enough…“ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plausibly-live/message

Anika and Liz don their finest gold mesh and settle in to discuss a key Star Trek episode: "Space Seed"... It's been said before, but it bears repeating: this episode is super racist (would it have been better or worse if they had renamed Khan and made him Mexican?) Time to ask the real questions: why are there so many women in Star Trek named Marla? Marlene McGivers: aspiring tradwife We've found it. A woman in Star Trek that neither Anika nor Liz can defend Does SNW break "Space Seed"?  But seriously, why has La'an not changed her name How did the Eugenics Wars … work?

"French Fries and Ketchup" flavored Pringles!  After the (kids) definition of the word logic, they move on to their very different first thoughts.  For Andrew it's Star Trek, and for Ben it's a joke Norm Macdonald told on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 1996.  Andrew lists a few of his favorite logical fallacies before Ben talks a little bit about boolean (not bullion) logic.  Most games include some sort of logic, but the hosts brainstorm a bit and come up with some examples of their favorite types.  Finally, Ben has a few movie recommendations for Andrew, and Andrew has some parting advice about cults.  Also… do not taunt Happy Fun Ball! 00:00:20 - Andrew played something literally ridiculous, and the king of shark movies, Jaws 00:03:20 - Waffles, Ben talks about playing Dave the Diver, and the understatement of the year 00:06:42 - ANDREW'S SENSORY ADVENTURE… ASMR… not yet sponsored by #Pringles 00:12:27 - The verdict… how it stacks up (pun intended) to other flavors, and the catsup saver 00:16:15 - Spock's Wikipedia, “kids definition,” adult etymology, the 12th century, and words 00:19:36 - Human nature, foreshadowing fallacies, Paramount Star Trek shows, and Spock 00:22:27 - Pon farr, “to mate or to kill,” the Eugenics Wars, and a glittering generalization  00:27:27 - Data, the Star Trek tie-in that should have been, and medium for a long long time. 00:30:02 - A generalization loophole, and Norm Macdonald's “Professor of Logic” joke  00:34:21 - Denying the antecedent, joke construction, and the illusion of logic in language 00:37:19 - Political discourse, slippery slopes, guns, nudity, and using logical fallacies  00:40:17 - The ad hominem fallacy, insults, the bandwagon appeal, and no true Scotsmen   00:43:06 - The ones that sound the funniest, and Ben misses Andrew's obvious sarcasm  00:45:00 - Lessons Andrew learned about logical fallacies from teaching persuasive essays  00:47:29 - Goalpost moving, picking cherries, gamblers, booleans, and the Autism Quotient 00:52:53 - Moving on to video games… chess, turn based strategy, puzzle, and story games 00:55:16 - The card game Flux, the mysterious kinetic sand, and do not taunt Happy Fun Ball 00:58:55 - Tower defense, Animal Well, the Barbie movie, and Andrew's long standing feud 01:02:22 - Billy's inspiration for getting in to game design and “Indie Game: the Movie” 01:06:00 - Artistic expressions using logic, itchy shirt tags, and “Logical Fallacy Theatre!” 01:08:49 - Analysis paralysis, don't join a cult, Ben talks briefly about “Cult of the Lamb” 01:10:24 - Closing the show with a crisp-centric soundbite from Ben and a little goofiness Follow Andrew / Partly Robot Industries on… His website: https://partlyrobot.com/ On Instagram: https://instagram.com/partlyrobot On TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@partlyrobot On Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/partlyrobot Follow Two Vague on… Our website: http://www.twovaguepodcast.com On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/two_vague_podcast On YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@twovaguepodcast On X-Twitter: https://twitter.com/TwoVaguePodcast For show appearance and other inquiries, contact us at: twovaguepodcast@gmail.com

The Past, Present, and Future of Star Trek StreamingThe Great Trek War begins. Or so it seems.Fans were shook when it was announced that not only was "Star Trek: Prodigy" seemingly canceled (with a season two still hanging in post-production), but that it would be almost instantly removed from Paramount+. Only a few days later, episodes 11-20 of "Star Trek: Prodigy" no longer existed in any format (except for purchase as a digital download on a few services). The trio tackles this debacle, as well as a recent "glitch" that caused season four of "Star Trek: Enterprise" to disappear from Paramount+ for 48 hours in at least the US and UK, as well as a season three episode that remained missing for almost a week.How have we watched Trek in the past? And what does the nebulous future of Paramount and streaming mean for how we'll watch Trek in the future? And what is the future of a franchise in the absence of a dedicated streaming service? Join us as we consider how to watch Trek before the advent of the Eugenics Wars.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3169638/advertisement

This week on our show, Captain Ingle and I set a course for the 22nd century and the adventures of the original NX-01 Enterprise. In this particular storyline, Dr. Arik Soong, the ancestor of Data's creator, has stolen a batch of human embryos leftover from the infamous Eugenics Wars of Earth. These embryos have been modified through genetic engineering to produce a race of “supermen” in the same vain as Star Trek's most famous villain, Khan Noonien Singh.

While exploring a strange new world on the outer reaches of the galaxy, the landing party from the Enterprise discovers the planet to be inhabited by an intelligent race of plants led by the giant clone of Dr. Stavos Keniclius, a scientist who hails from the era of the Eugenics Wars on Earth. But soon after being lured into his lair, his true motives become clear: to clone a giant version of Mr. Spock and lead a master race that will act as a peace-keeping force throughout the galaxy. Just like Dr. Tristan Adams from "Dagger of the Mind" and Dr. Roger Korby from "What Are Little Girls Made Of?," Dr. Stavos Keniclius continues the "Star Trek" tradition of featuring a mad scientist who is acting with noble intentions. But "The Infinite Vulcan" -- written by Walter Koenig (who played Chekov in "The Original Series") -- was also ahead of its time for featuring a story on cloning many years before scientists first accomplished that feat. The result is an episode that, just like every episode of "The Animated Series" up to this point, lives up to the standards established by "The Original Series" and feels like a vintage episode of "Star Trek."

In this episode of Trekking Through Compliance, we consider the episode Space Seed which aired on February 16, 1967, Star Date 3141.9.  The derelict DY100 class spaceship S.S. Botany Bay built in the 1990s is discovered by the Enterprise. The Enterprise has no record of the ship, but this is not surprising as many records were lost in the great World War of Eugenics fought during that period. The leader, who is discovered to be Khan Noonien Singh is accidentally awakened when the lights are turned on. Khan admits that he is one of the supermen from the Eugenics Wars. After a struggle, Kirk maroons the superhumans on Ceti Alpha 5, leaving them sufficient supplies to enable them to colonize the uninhabited planet. Kirk gives McGivers a choice between court martial and being left behind with Khan, and she elects to stay with Khan.  Compliance Takeaways: 1.     How do you manage 3rd parties after the contract is signed? 2.     Interview questioning is as much art as science. 3.     Have you practices you crisis management program?  Resources Excruciatingly Detailed Plot Summary by Eric W.

Clint and Cory discuss the fictional timeline of the Star Trek universe. From Mark Twain meeting Data, to the Eugenics Wars, to Irish Unification, Clint and Cory dig into the historical data banks.

Years before NASA showed the moon landing, Star Trek was setting the stage with episodes dealing with The Eugenics Wars and The Return of the Archons. The idea of being placed into a computer simulation or altering your genetics is a tale that runs as far back as the origins of Gnosticism. These thought have […]

In this classic episode, the crew of the Enterprise finds the SS Botany Bay adrift in space, a pre-warp sleeper ship from Earth containing several bodies in stasis. Among these is Khan Noonian Singh, a genetically engineered super-human and one of the leaders of the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s. Once Khan is woken from his long sleep, he soon reveals the ambition, strength and intelligence that helped him conquer a quarter of the Earth.   Join Chris & Nev as they discuss the birth of this timeless and unforgettable villain of the Star Trek universe.

We continue our “Best of TOS” series, as the Discussing Trek crew reviews Star Trek “Space Seed”, an iconic episode from the first season of the original series. As always, we give the deets by putting on our collective 1967 hats, while framing it against how this story has influenced the franchise as a whole.

So much should have happened by now: Blade Runner, The Eugenics Wars, Flying Cars, Living on Mars, Human Clones, Time Looping Super Soldiers, Khan Noonien Singh, much longer life expectancy We have none of this - although we may have human clones somewhere Everything that is possible will happen - the only question is when What do you want to do tomorrow?

The Eugenics Wars, with Greg Cox. For a high-tech futuristic utopia, the United Federation of Planets can seem surprisingly cautious when it comes to new technologies. Time and again, Star Trek has played out the science fiction staple of technology run amok. In some cases, the response we have seen has been a kind of retrenchment, a refusal to make use of certain technologies because of their perceived moral cost. The complex web of problems surrounding the banning of synthetic lifeforms in Star Trek: Picard calls to mind the extremely strict rules on genetic modification seen in episodes of The Next Generation and Voyager, all of which stem from the Eugenics Wars—a particularly dark period of Earth’s history in Star Trek’s timeline. In this episode of Primitive Culture, host Duncan Barrett is joined by prolific Star Trek novelist Greg Cox, author of a trilogy of tie-in novels filling in the history of Khan and the Eugenics Wars, for a look at how Star Trek has approached the subject of genetic engineering and the ethical problems it raises. We discuss the retconning of the Nazi-inflected eugenics described in the Original Series episode “Space Seed” and how that carried through to genetic manipulation and the creation of augmented humans in The Wrath of Khan. We also consider, with the benefit of hindsight, whether real-world advancements in genetics over the half century since Star Trek was born make the Federation’s position seem a little too restrictive.

Before the SS Botany Bay...Before the Wrath Began...there was only a small boy named Noon. How did this child become one of the most brutal dictators in all of earth history? What leads up to the Eugenics Wars? Found out all this and more on this episode of The Omega Particle!

"We were innocent. It will never be that way again." We discuss “The Masterpiece Society”, which develops many of the same themes as TOS’s “Paradise”, but more sophisticated, including stagnation in a closed system and balanced societies as boring. Laura has a theory about this society being connected to the Eugenics Wars and we discuss the implications for women in this highly controlled society (it doesn't look good). Geordi and Troi are the episode MVPs, but Geordi wins for Smoothest MFer.

Star Trek’s Dark Ages. Sanctuary districts. Eugenics Wars. World War III and the post-atomic horror. It seems clear that the period between our own time and the founding of Starfleet is not one of humanity’s finest chapters. In fact, for a franchise built on an optimistic view of tomorrow, Star Trek offers more than a few glimpses of a catastrophic future. In this episode of Primitive Culture, host Duncan Barrett is joined by Tony Black to look at these Dark Ages in the imagined history that is Star Trek. What does it take—as far as Trek is concerned—to get from today to a utopian future? Are we heading in the right direction? Is there hope in technology? And how far into its own history can Star Trek dip before it becomes something fundamentally different?

Space Seed: an episode that is not as good, and more problematic (#MeToo) than I remember it. Still a classic, but not a masterpiece. Excellent sci-fi elements: Most extreme and detailed “future history” Trek has ever attempted: Mid 1990s Eugenics Wars; a dictator from Northern India region (possibly a Sheikh), leading a band of genetic … Continue reading "StarTrek01.25–Space Seed"

TNG is introducing us to two different men who are bad with people and compensate in different ways! First up, meet Reginald Barclay, a man with social anxiety so severe he mostly hides in the holodeck in "Hollow Pursuits". After that, Data is kidnapped by Kivas Fajo, a crooked collector of rare items who uses them to make up for his lack of any redeeming qualities in "The Most Toys"! Also this week: figuring out how Reg survived the Academy, Kivas's plan comes together, and the truth of the Eugenics Wars!

Season 4 Retrospective Part 2.   Genetically enhanced humans have popped up in all forms of science fiction media for almost as long as the genre has existed, and Star Trek is no exception. Our first look at "augments," or genetically engineered humans, came in the original Star Trek series episode "Space Seed", when we meet the unforgettable Khan and learn about the Eugenics Wars of Earth past. Gene Roddenberry based this backstory on events from our own history during World War II, when Hitler began examining selective birthing to create a superior race of humans. The United States was not blameless, with physicians and lawmakers using imperfections in family history or other "unwanted" characteristics to deny rights to many citizens. And so we come to Star Trek: Enterprise's entry in the history, the three episodes known as "The Augment Trilogy", heralding Brent Spiner's return to Star Trek as Soong family predecessor, Arik. In this episode of Warp Five, hosts Brandon-Shea Mutala, Patrick Devlin, Brandi Jackola, and special guest Chris Tribuzio take a look at the season four episodes "Borderland", "Cold Station 12" and "The Augments". We discuss ties to other Star Trek, religious meanings of augment names, big wrestlers and little women, and how a middle-aged man in prison could end up with children.  Chapters Intro (00:00:00)  Welcome, Boomers!

Today on GeekFest Rants we take a look at the fictional Eugenics Wars from Star Trek.  How these events have given rise to one of sci-fi greatest villains and how it's rooted in a real life historical period.  Then Carlos is joined by Kyle to talk about all the TV shows we have been catching up on and some which have actually finished.  Then we wrap up with Star Wars toys (what else?). Carlos compares the classic Kenner large size figures to the more modern Hasbro ones.

It's SSHB's punchiest episode ever as circumstances forced us to record this one a little late! It's another episode of milestones as Kirk talks his first computer to death in “Return of the Archons,” and then Ricardo Montalban strides onstage for his first appearance as Khan in “Space Seed.” Also this week: orgasm sticks, Jake has a bone to pick, and reminiscing about life during the Eugenics Wars in the 1990s.

As our look at Star Trek essentials starts its journey, Pete and Matt discuss, from Star Trek (the original series), "Space Seed," episode 1x23. Join us as we analyze the episode's take on gender, praise the casting, shudder to think of those 1990s Eugenics Wars, and posit that Khan is the antithesis to Gene Roddenberry's hope for tomorrow.MP3iTunes

The Infinite Vulcan. On the planet Phylos, the Enterprise crew encounters a geneticist from the Eugenics Wars in the form of a clone. A giant clone. And he wants to duplicate Spock in his own image as part of a plan to create a galactic peacekeeping force. What could possibly go wrong? On this planet of sentient foliage, Kirk and crew must dodge purple plants that look like tribbles on stilts, flying dragon plants with springs instead of legs, and shields that nearly drain the dilithium crystals—all in an effort to save Spock! In this episode of Saturday Morning Trek, we're joined by Andi VanderKolk as we try and weed through this giggle-worthy episode to find the katra at the center: What happens to a warrior who becomes obsolete in an age of peace? We also ponder how can we bring The Animated Series back into the fold in this new age of Star Trek. Saturday Morning Trek would also like to welcome aboard Mike Bovia, our second associate producer!

Implications of Genetic Enhancement. Ever since “Space Seed” the idea of genetic enhancement has been something that is viewed almost universally as a negative within the Star Trek universe. After the devastation wrought by Khan and his fellow enhanced humans in the Eugenics Wars, genetic enhancement was outlawed by the Federation. But then came Deep Space Nine and Julian Bashir to cast shades of grey on the subject. In this episode of The Orb hosts Christopher Jones and Matthew Rushing follow up their commentary for “Doctor Bashir, I Presume” with a broader discussion of genetic enhancement and the implications of altering the natural course of evolution. Using the episode “Statistical Probabilities” as a basis for discussion, we delve into both the negative and positive aspects of genetic manipulation, the Asimov-inspired plot that gave us one possible solution to the Dominion War, and whether or not people like Julian Bashir are the likely future of mankind.

The Augment Arc. The Eugenics Wars are one of those events from Star Trek history that we've learned very little about despite their extreme importance. During its fourth season, Enterprise revisited the Eugenics Wars and their aftermath in a three-part arc comprised of “Borderland,” “Cold Station 12,” and “The Augments.” In this episode of Warp Five hosts Christopher Jones and Kate Walsh discuss the trilogy, the brilliant performance by Brent Spiner as Dr. Arik Soong, how it plays into the great debate of genetic enhancement, why Malik is a poor man's Khan, and how the story excels in some areas while failing in others.

Greg Cox. A lifelong Star Trek fan and prolific author of franchise tie-in fiction, Greg Cox penned his first Star Trek novel in 1995. Devil In the Sky, a numbered DS9 book written together with John Gregory Betancourt, marked the beginning of a long stream of fan-favourites spanning nearly two decades. In this episode of Literary Treks we're joined by Greg to talk about his new TOS novel The Weight of Worlds, as well as many of his other works including The Q Continuum trilogy, The Eugenics Wars, and some of his non-Trek books, too. In our news segment we discuss new teasers about "The Fall" from Una McCormack, David R. George III, and David Mack, tell you which books you need to read to prepare for the series, look at a second part to Rise of the Federation titled "Tower of Babel" along with the Star Trek Space-Spanning Treasury Edition from IDW, and we review Countdown to Darkness #4.

Soong's Augments. The Eugenics Wars are one of those elements from Star Trek history that we've learned very little about despite their extreme importance. This great conflict from the 1990s, triggered by genetic engineering, exerted great influence on the development of human society and the Federation. It brought us Khan, World War III, and the controversy behind Dr. Bashir's enhancement. During its fourth season, Enterprise revisited the Eugenics Wars and their aftermath in a three-part arc comprised of “Borderland,” “Cold Station 12,” and “The Augments.” Spanning the years from Khan's rule over Asia and the Middle East to Dr. Arik Soong's continuation of the genetic engineering experiment, this story fills in much of the unknown story. In this episode of The Ready Room we're joined by Michael Fisher and Dork Trek's Ben McCormick to discuss the arc's connection to TOS and The Wrath of Khan, along with Brent Spiner's guest appearance and the evolution of Enterprise's approach to storytelling.  In news we cover Malcolm McDowell's Star Trek rant, Captain Picard Day celebrations, IDW's September releases, Brannon Braga's new Borg comic series “Hive,” Star Trek Online's No-Win Scenario event, and lots of movie news and rumors. Plus Greg and Chris get new unexpected hybrid-animal nicknames.
