Podcast appearances and mentions of kai opaka

In this episode of OPP, we dive into Deep Space Nine's Battle Lines, where the only thing more endless than the war is Kai Opaka's new lease on life. Join us as we unpack Kira's emotional gut punch, Sisko's failed attempt at peace talks, and a Gamma Quadrant groundhog day that goes spectacularly sideways. Is this episode a haunting meditation on the cost of violence? Or just a sci-fi version of a family reunion gone wrong? And seriously, does anyone really want to live forever if it means reliving the same grudge match day after day? We're breaking down the good, the bad, and the painfully repetitive in Battle Lines – the one where even death isn't a good enough excuse to call it quits. Hit play, buckle up, and prepare for eternal conflict… Starfleet style.

26. Februar 1996: Ein antikes bajoranisches Solarschiff purzelt aus dem Wurmloch und hat Erleichterung für Sisko im Gepäck, denn Insasse Akorem Laan ist nicht bloß Dichter, sondern übernimmt direkt die ungeliebte Rolle der religiösen Figur, des Emissary. Doch bald schon ist das Kastensystem wieder da, Kira muss Kraniche kneten, Mönche drehen durch – und Kai Opaka erscheint dem Captain in seinen Albträumen. In Deutschland: Die Übernahme, ausgestrahlt am 1. November 1996.

When the local Bajoran quest giver decides to make a quick stop at the local DOOM level, absolutely nothing bad will happen as we review "Battle Lines". Sisko decides to take Kai Opaka out for a joyride, but things take a grim turn when they crash on planet Breaking Bad. I'm sure none of this will have consequences at all!

“Battle Lines” 30th-anniversary reflections A joy ride to the Gamma Quadrant turns deadly for Kai Opaka. At least until she springs back to life. Along with Sisko, Kira, and Bashir, the spiritual leader of Bajor finds herself marooned on some sort of prison colony where it is impossible to die and warring factions fight in an endless cycle of conflict. Die once on this moon and, well, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. But for Kai Opaka, that's okay, because she has found a new calling, a new charge from the Prophets. In this episode of The Orb, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, one episode at a time. In this installment, we discuss “Battle Lines,” how Opaka's new calling changes not only her life but also Kira's, why it was necessary to remove Opaka from her role on Bajor, what the story says about conflict, punishment, and redemption, and more.

Kai Opaka is back! I hope she doesn't get doomed to spend eternity on a hellish prison planet... Our title brainstorming session (youtube only): https://youtu.be/PjDKAraNajE Ryan's edits, home of the Star Trek INtakes: https://www.youtube.com/c/RyansEdits The Sanderlanche, Data's podcast where he and other people talk about Brandon Sanderson books: https://www.thesanderlanche.com/

Matthew (he/him) and Jo (they/them) ask “War, what is it good for?” They also discuss how much Sci-Fi loves the Christ-figure archetype, they compare Patrick Stewart to Meghan McCain's father and they spend way too much time joking about paint by numbers. It's ridiculous. Matthew asks if Miles is actually capable of the MacGyver style engineering he does in this episode and Jo rants about how much they freaking love Kai Opaka. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.  Follow us online: Twitter - @TerokNoir E-mail questions or comments: teroknoirpod@gmail.com  Feel free to rate and review our podcast and thanks for listening!

Review of Star Trek DS9: Season 1 Episode 12 "Battle Lines" This week: You should never mess with Mike from Breaking Bad... but leave it to the dastardly Nol-Ennis to start a perpetual war on an obscure moon.

25. April 1993: Auf einem namenlosen Mond tobt seit unzählbaren Äonen ein apokalyptischer Kampf. Ein unsäglicher Ort, an dem Tod und Wiedergeburt so alltäglich sind, dass diese Begriffe mittlerweile bedeutungslos wurden. In diese Hölle gerät nicht nur Kira, deren Weltbild wie so oft zerrüttet wird, sondern auch Weltraum-Päpstin Kai Opaka, die sich an diesem finstren Ort ihrer Bestimmung stellt. In Deutschland: Die Prophezeiung, ausgestrahlt am 10. April 1994.

Kevin and Mike discuss Season 1, Episodes 1&2 of Star Trek: Prodigy, "Lost and Found, Parts 1 and 2," from the animation to the music to the writing and concept. And since Prodigy is designed to introduce newcomers--and especially kids--to Star Trek, they also talk about how they introduced their own kids to Star Trek, navigating the tricky spaces of age-appropriateness and taste. This leads to a conversation about how we introduce our kids to faith, both inside and outside church settings, curating important ideas for young hearts and minds.

This week, Mike and Johnson continue chatting about underrated Star Trek episodes - but they've moved onto Deep Space Nine! The first foray into this series will be Battle Lines, which features one of Mike's favorite DS9 characters, Kai Opaka. But why the cliffhanger (arguably)?! We then drop by Deanna's where Mike shares some big news going on in his life. We also continue to celebrate Pride by asking this week: Which Star Trek character would you want to go on a date with, and where? Mike shares a less conventional idea, while Johnson goes a bit more deep cut. We would love to hear from you! You can reach us by emailing deepspacepride@gmail.com - drop us a note, comment, or question. Just don't be mean - though if you are, we might ignore you! You can also check us out on social media, which we promise to update once in a while: - Instagram: @deepspacepride - Twitter: @deepspacepride

Welcome to our Rebinge of Star Trek DS9: Emissary This is our first full episode rebinge of Star Trek DS9! We are starting at the beginning, of course, with the DS9 pilot entitled Emissary! We're introduced to the space station Deep Space Nine and its main characters of Sisko, Jake, Miles, Dax, Kira, Odo and Quark. We also get a view of DS9 and Kim thinks it's a bit of a dump. We do spend quite a bit of time cleaning up the place after all! James is (naturally) quite in love with the whole thing from the very beginning. This episode of DS9 touches on some heavy stuff like grief and PTSD. And it nearly convinces us that time isn't linear. The show begins to build the foundation of Sisko as a character and gives us glimpses of him at his best and at his worst. We also get a look at the Cardassians and their burdensome costumes and we know pretty quickly we don't like them. We roll our sleeves up, just like Miles, for a very deep dive into this super-sized episode of the classic show. Get ready for Cardassians, an angry woman, wormholes and a lot of inappropriate ear touching. So. Much. Ear. Touching. Kim is truly outraged by this development. And oh yeah, James gets goose bumps when we find out who the Emissary is (a thing he already knew, but he is so giddy with excitement to relearn it). What's this rebinge thing? It's a re-watch of a thing you've already seen but love to watch and talk about. Listen to our intro episode if you want to know a little more about us. Next time... We dig into Season 1 Episode 2 of DS9: Past Prologue. Be sure and join our Facebook group and Follow Rebinge It on Twitter!

James and Kim dive into Season 1 Episode 1 of DS9: Emissary. They discuss PTSD and debate rampant ear touching.

For episode 12 I thought I would pick a movie that is on message with the world right now but also one that shows things could be much, much worse. This time around I’m looking at Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever. This was one of the most important movies for me in my early development as a filmmaker and if you weren’t a fan at the time, probably much better than you remember. DS9 brings Kai Opaka back to the show with episode 12, Battlegrounds, and I end with a book that I actually finished this week instead of weeks ago, Brandon Sanderson’s The Rithmatist. Be sure to follow me on Facebook at Steal My Name Cast and if you’re stuck inside for the next few weeks take the time to catch up on all my previous episodes. Stay safe, stay inside if you can, and as two wise men from San Dimas once said: Be Excellent To Each Other!!! Enjoy!

In this weeks episode, we talk about the first episode of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, "Emissary". We debate the vast change in tone of this iteration of the series, as well as giving our thoughts on this new adventure aboard a previously-Cardassian occupied space station.

The Ennis and the Nol-Ennis hate each other. Really hate each other. They've hated each other for so long, their people can't even remember why they hate or why they fight. It's into this never-ending war that Sisko, Kira, Bashir and special guest Kai Opaka find themselves - learning that if you can't die, the fight never ends.

Kai Opaka goes to the Gamma Quadrant! Mike from Breaking Bad shows up! This is a pretty fun episode, where Sarge and I get into some war stuff. Fair warning, it gets a little heavy at points.

When Sisko, Kira and Bashir take Kai Opaka on a trip to the Gamma Quadrant, they discover a prison planet where the inmates are forced to endlessly fight each other. "Battle Lines" features Jonathan Banks in a stand out guest spot, and it also does a good job of examining some of the DS9 plots that have been on the back burner for a while. Modi joins me to discuss having good actors in your TV series, the nuance of Ben Sisko, and new information about the Bajoran religion! Are you looking for older episodes?

Season 1, episodes 13 and 14: In “Battle Lines,” Kai Opaka’s destiny leads her to a desolate moon inhabited by immortal warriors stuckin a never-ending war. Plus, in “The Storyteller,” Chief Miles O’Brien has to save a Bajoran village from a monster created from their own negative energy.

This week, Into the Wormhole breaks bad as Kira, Sisko, Bashir, and Kai Opaka travel to a Gamma Quadrant planet that's basically just HBO's OZ with more death, somehow. Meanwhile, Ben and Poey argue about airplane safety, and Grand Nagus Vince talks about his 1987 Cougar. Mike from Breaking Bad guest stars.

There's lessons to be learned on today's episode of LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS: A STAR TREK DEEP SPACE NINE PODCAST. In the episode, BATTLE LINES, first and foremost, if you are taking the spiritual leader of the planet you are trying to garner favor with through a spatial anomaly 70,000 light years away into an unexplored quadrant of the galaxy, be sure not to let her get killed on an alien planet. Oh sure, something about the planet allows all the people living on it to die and be reborn over annd over again, so Kai Opaka really isn't technically dead, but she's never making it back to Bajor, and Commander Benjamin Sisko is to blame for the loss. Not the best moment in fostering understanding. Secondly, don't let Kira emote...she's just a little over the top this early into the series. But one thing you should do is let Paul Spataro, Andrew Leyland, and Shawn Engel tell you all about this episode, and how it relates to "Breaking Bad", the series we'll be covering after "Firefly" and "Justified".

Kai Opaka. Religion held a rare position of importance within Star Trek during the seven seasons of Deep Space Nine, and right from the outset Benjamin Sisko was ushered into the world of Bajoran spirituality. Rather than the contentious atmosphere of Kai Winn, however, Sisko was introduced to his role of Emissary by the kinder, gentler hand of Kai Opaka. And while we never truly got to know her, the role that Opaka played in setting up the series is irreplaceable—at least for the DS9 that we came to know. In this episode of The Orb, Christopher Jones and Matthew Rushing discuss Opaka, her background and her rise to the position of Kai, her "collaboration" with Cardassians during the final years of the Occupation, and we image a series both with Kai Opaka throughout and with her never existing.   Send us your feedback!

Battle Lines. Kai Opaka’s stint on DS9 was sadly shorted-lived, paving the way for the beloved Kai Winn to grace our screens. In this episode of Trek News and Views Colin is joined by Michael Clark, Adam Howse, and Thomas Baddeley to discuss the episode that marked Opaka’s farewall, “Battle Lines.” With a scoop of Kira’s temper, a dash of O’Brien’s observant nature, and a sprinkle of Doctor Who—yes, Doctor Who—we take you through one of DS9’s early episodes.

This week we take a look at the “death” of Kai Opaka in “Battle Lines,” have a look at a dodgy greeting card, read out an actual real life email and have a big chat about X-Men Days of Future Past. All this and a discussion about this weeks WWE Royal Rumble. This weeks collectable […]

The Sisko. Shortly after Benjamin Sisko arrived at Bajor, he was informed by Kai Opaka that he was the more than just a Starfleet Commander. Apart from being an ambassador of sorts whose mission was to prepare Bajor for Federation membership, Sisko was a long-awaited spiritual figure whose arrival was foretold in Bajoran prophecies. What played out over the next seven years was a story of incredible transformation of a kind never before seen in Star Trek.  In this episode of The Orb, hosts Christopher Jones and Matthew Rushing take a closer look at the man the Prophets came to refer to as The Sisko, how a Starfleet officer initially fought again his destiny, and how he came to accept that he had a very special purpose to fulfil that went beyond the uniform.
