Podcasts about q continuum

Let's dive into the Q Continuum's first month with it's live ops arc runner, Eco and find out bout some of the winning and losing events of the month and the feedback that he's gathered. Plus we'll look at the third iteration of Alliance Tournaments and what has changed and the strategy at success for well organized alliances. 

This week, we're joined by Melvin Peña for a day trip to the Thames Frost Fair in 1814, expecting a jolly afternoon of daydrinking, sword swallowers and juicy sheep hearts, only to find ourselves tied to a bomb and engaged in an intriguing discussion about race, class, death and the ethics of killing. It's Thin Ice. Notes and links Once again, Friend from the Future was a promotional short designed to introduce Bill Potts. Nathan makes fun of the fact that at the end of the short, the on-screen caption reads Introducing Pearl Mackie asBill. You can see the entire short, including that unfortunate typo, here. Like Martha before her and Ruby after her, Bill is concerned that treading on a butterfly in the past will change the present in terrible ways. That concern comes from Ray Bradbury's 1952 short story A Sound of Thunder, which you should really just go off and read right now. In Bong Joon-ho's post-apocalyptic film Snowpiercer (2013), the poor people who live in the back of the train are fed on glistening black protein bars, which we discover are made from ground-up cockroaches. Flight Through Entirety only occasionally advocates for political violence (see Episode 182: The Icy Moral High Ground), but this week we are pleased to bring you this clip of neo-Nazi Richard Spencer being punched in the head during an interview on ABC-TV in January 2017. Melvin alludes to the Slave Compensation Act 1837, which authorised the payment of about £20 million in compensation to slave owners in the British colonies. This sum was finally paid off when the British Government restructured its debt in 2015. (The people who had been enslaved didn't receive any compensation, of course.) Follow us Nathan is on Bluesky at @nathanbottomley.bsky.social, Todd is on X at @toddbeilby, and here's Melvin's profile on about.me. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam. You can follow Flight Through Entirety on Mastodon and Bluesky, as well as on X and Facebook. Our website is at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on Apple Podcasts, or we won't tell you what's in those fish pies that you're so looking forward to for dinner this evening. And more You can find links to all of the podcasts we're involved in on our podcasts page. But here's a summary of where we're up to right now. 500 Year Diary is our latest new Doctor Who podcast, going back through the history of the show and examining new themes and ideas. It's first season came out early this year, under the title New Beginnings. Check it out. It will be back for a second season early in 2025. The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire has broadcast our hot takes on every new episode of Doctor Who since November last year, and it will be back again in 2025 for Season 2. Brendan and Bjay's gaming poscast is called The Bjay BJ Game Show. In the most recent episode, they discuss The Talos Principle (2014), a puzzle-based game with a sentient robot protagonist, which raises questions about identity, consciousness and religion. Brendan, Richard and Steven have released another episode of their Avengers podcast The Three Handed Game. It's the third episode of their triptych The Cool War, covering an early Season 2 episode called The Decapod, featuring Julie Stevens as Venus Smith. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. Last week, they dropped in on the Q Continuum in an episode of Star Trek: Voyager called Death Wish.

Someone's joined the Q Continuum (the TNC Patreon level - it's possible it also gains you access to the actual Q Continuum, we just can't promise)! Time to discuss! Meanwhile, Garak goes head-to-head with Dukat, Quark and Odo spend some alone time, and Jake, Ben, and O'Brien clamber around some ducts. But does this add up to Andy and Matt thinking the episode is good or bad? And can it be bad when it may have the funniest moment in all of Star Trek??[Episode discussion begins around 1:37 - LOOK, THE Q CONTINUUM?! WE HAD TO DOWNLOAD]

The return of Lohn JeDancie as the inimitable Q! This time, he's here to test an intern, but not like that. Well, kinda like that actually in that one scene. Olivia D'Abo, the older sister from Wonder Years fame, does a bangup job as a Q spawn left orphaned on Earth after a freak tornado accident in 24th Century Topeka. It seems the Q Continuum didn't like it when her parents quit the firm and our Q was sent to investigate her powers. Which are mostly puppy-based until he trains her up in an omnipotent game of hide-and-seek and messes up Dr. Crusher's experiment. The relationship between Crusher and Ms. Amanda Rogers is a high point of the episode, and Q is much more believable as a villain. Erik hosts this one and edited it all by himself!

But when Aunt Kathy's new curriculum doesn't set the boy straight, continuum-level consequences finally get through to him in the end. How did this episode affect Keegan De Lancie's career?

Welcome to episode 238 of the Cloud Pod Podcast - where the forecast is always cloudy! This week we're bringing you a preview of Amazon re:Invent 2023. We're talking all things AWS, Bedrock, Q, and frugal architecture, and - you guessed it - AI.  Titles we almost went with this week:

KILL ALL MEN? That's the tantalizing hook for the latest episode in our Trials of Season Two theme month and guest co-hosts Kat Spada of Feminist Frequency Radio and artist Ethan Harper can't help but think what might've been. Instead, we get an episode about a member of the Q Continuum who wants to die. The only thing stopping him is another member of the Q Continuum -- John de Lancie! Can he convince Captain Janeway to rule in his favor and sentence a wayward Q to an eternity trapped inside a comet or will she grant Death Wish Q asylum so that he can become mortal as a means of ending his own life. Oh -- and there's a surprise cameo by William T. Riker. The grades start at (25:33). Check out Kat's Voyager-themed manicure here. If you're enjoying the show, consider rating and reviewing us.

We are finally back to covering episodes of Star Trek: Picard, and on this episode of The Star Trek Picard Cast, Ruthie and I talk through Star Trek: Picard, Season 2 Episode 2, titled Penance. This episode's teleplay is by Akiva Goldsman & Terry Matalas and Christopher Monfette (in other words, Akiva and Terry wrote as a team, and handed it off to Christopher who finished it), based on a story by Michael Chabon and Akiva Goldsman & Terry Matalas and Christopher Monfette, and it was directed by Doug Aarniokoski. Picard and the gang end up in a very dark alternate 2400, thanks to Picard's old nemesis Q.

But this episode is not about mutually assured destruction, per se. If I'm missing any other Star Trek episodes that tackle the subject, let me know!It's "The Man in the High Castle," not "Man in the High Tower," and it is indeed based on the novel of the same name, written by Philip K. Dick.Slaid is entirely correct about Star Trek's Nielson ratings in the 60's. When Star Trek aired on NBC, its ratings were low, and the network cancelled it in its third season. It's useful to keep in mind, however, that at the time the vast majority of TV viewers were watching only three broadcast networks: ABC, CBS, or NBC. So even a show with "low ratings" in the 60's would have commanded a much larger audience than a show with "low ratings" today. So it's kind of hard to make comparisons today. But its true that Star Trek didn't really become the hit show that it is today with its cult following and influence on popular culture until the 70's, when it was in syndication.Is Q, and the coinciding Q Continuum, immortal? The much loved character Q, from Star Trek: Next Generation is an omnipotent being with the ability to control time and space at will. Q is part of a collective, the Q Continuum, which exists in another dimension not accessible or understandable to humans. Q is not a benevolent being. He is better described as bored than benevolent. Although he has a fascination with Picard and with humanity and its historical outcomes, he is at times antagonistic and arbitrarily cruel. Trelane, the antagonist of this episode, "The Squire of Gothos," is a precursor to Q. The question of whether or not Q can decline or die has been recently raised as a possible plot line in the newest season of Star Trek: Picard, currently airing on Paramount Plus.

In this Reaction Show Edition, James talks all things Picard season 2 episode "Mercy" with John and Josh. They dive deep into what is going with Q and the revelation that the Q Continuum is dying, Thoughts on the FBI Agent Wells and the possible he will turn out to be something more then he appears, we talk about what the nature of Star Trek is a whole and at the end give some thoughts about what we want/hope to see in the last two episodes of the season.

The Q Continuum is locked in a Civil War following the events of Quinn's suicide.  Q returns to Voyager in hopes of getting Captain Janeway to agree to be the mother of his child, thinking that infusing the continuum with human DNA will put an end to the fighting.  But Janeway isn't so keen on the idea.  Nor is Miss Q, Q's ex-love interest.  What will Matt think of our return to the continuum in this week's episode of Beam Me Up: A Star Trek Podcast.If you're watching with us, the next episode will be from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine : "Rapture."Contact the show:email: beammeuppod@gmail.comTwitter: @beammeuppodInstagram: @beammeuppodWebsite: beammeuppod.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/beammeuppod)Head over to beammeupgiveaway.com to be entered into our giveaway for this month.  Right now, you can win a Star Trek 3D Chess Set.  Super Cool.  We would love to own it.  But we can't, so you might as well.  You can enter multiple ways every day.

The SyFy Sistas look at the special relationship Captain Jean-Luc Picard maintains with three amazing Black women; Guinan, the El-Aurian bartender from his days on the Enterprise-D, Lily Sloane from his temporal incursion in the film Star Trek: First Contact (1996), and Raffaela (Raffi) Musiker, XO during his command of the Romulan evacuation and later his quest companion in the series Picard. These three women have the ear of the Captain of the Enterprise D and E, the flagship of the Federation fleet, the Chief Contact with the Q Continuum, the Arbiter of Succession for the Klingon Empire, the Savior of Earth from the Borg Invasion, the face of the United Federation of Planets, and a few other things that only Yvette calls him.

When the Voyager crew releases an imprisoned member of the Q Continuum, Janeway is forced to hold an asylum hearing for the Q that will either result in his return to eternal prison or give him the freedom to commit suicide. How will Matt handle the introduction of the Q to the Delta quadrant and his first trip to the continuum itself? Let's find out....

We're flipping the script again, as Erin kicks off a very special episode of Warped. It's our first encounter with the Borg, and May's first encounter with the Q Continuum. A special guest star gives us the opportunity to lightly graze a three-breasted treasure of science fiction cinema. It should be no surprise by now that Guinan steals the show for us whenever she gets involved. Despite the format of our show, we still think it's appropriate to observe in silent respect the stellar performance of Whoopi Goldberg, and in the meantime our strengthening fan powers lead us to theorize that Geordi is constantly bugging Deanna about his bad luck with women. From The Smashing Pumpkins to Hanson, we talk about our favorite bands growing up, and the newer acts that we have definitely heard about from somewhere. After an enthusiastic celebration of Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine, we cool down with a few rounds of Roman Mouthwash. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Podcasters’ Log, August 2020. Changing course from geeky movies this week, we explore our first TV topic — our most & least favorite Star Trek episodes featuring the recurring character known as Q. Preferences among the co-hosts differed more than expected, so you get a nice variety of opinions about this member of the omnipotent Q Continuum and his intrusive meddling onboard the Enterprise, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager. Was he best when providing these shows comic relief, or is his value in teaching lessons to humanity? Listen to our analysis, as this time, humans put Q on trial for *his* actions. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/discerninggeeks/message

String Theory, Book 3: Evolution. After incalculable losses, the crew of the U.S.S. Voyager continue to battle against the forces of "Phoebe Janeway" and her army of exiles, determined to re-enter Exosia. The effects of the conflict among the Nacene threaten to spill beyond the boundaries of the Monorhan system. The very underpinning of the universe threatens to unravel thanks to the actions of the exiled Nacene, and only Voyager stands in their way! In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Dan Gunther and Bruce Gibson discuss the third and final book in the String Theory trilogy: Evolution by Heather Jarman. We talk about Tom & Harry's adventure in the Q Continuum, The Doctor's mission to Ocampa's past, the final showdown on Voyager, Janeway's absence in this novel, the plot elements that set us up for Voyager's future, and wrap up with our final thoughts and ratings.

Welcome to our Rebinge of Star Trek DS9: Q-Less Episode six of season 1 of DS9, entitled Q-Less, brings in some classic TNG characters. Q and Vash visit the station and pretty much everything goes badly. Quark and Vash form a skeezy team to auction off some Gamma Quadrant artifacts to the dumbest rich people Quark knows. Meanwhile the station is getting slowly sucked to its doom into the nearby wormhole. Is Q to blame? Q-Less Vash arrives at DS9 with a very large sack of precious artifacts from the other side of the wormhole. The team is less interested in her baubles than in how she even got over there, but she's not talking. Bashir and Quark are up to their usual tricks with the new visitor. Sisko is less concerned about Vash than he is about the sudden appearance of Q. What does he want? Is he responsible for the weird power drains happening around the station? Odo is pretty sure everyone is up to something (they are) and Q and Sisko have an epic boxing match. This is a weird episode (well Q is involved, so that's expected). What's this rebinge thing? It's a re-watch of a thing you've already seen but love to watch and talk about. We go deep with every episode, walking you through every scene and analyzing all of the characters and story lines. Listen to our intro episode if you want to know a little more about us. And kick off the whole thing with our rebinge of the pilot episode Emissary.

Death Wish. Nineteenth-century German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche held that Western philosophers from Socrates onward have had a gigantic death wish in the form of philosophical escapism and denial of our nature as finite, embodied beings with our own uniquely individual perspectives, drives, and desires. Philosophers in the Q Continuum likewise seem to have a death wish, especially Quinn, the Q Continuum's greatest philosopher. In this episode of Meta Treks, hosts Zachary Fruhling and Mike Morrison discuss the philosophical and existential themes in the second-season Voyager episode "Death Wish." Although "Death Wish" is usually interpreted as a moral dilemma about assisted suicide—itself a hot moral topic since the 1990s—Zachary and Mike argue instead that "Death Wish" is a subtler but highly-developed example of Nietzschean philosophy of embodiment, perspectivism, and metaphorical self-expression.  Zachary and Mike also discuss the question of meaning as it relates to death, the finitude of human life, and the possibility of immortality—in the Q Continuum or in any form of the afterlife.

Farpoint is CANCELLED because we're being tested by "All Good Things..."!New York Times and USA Today best-selling author David R. George III is back on the show this week for a look at the finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation, a tour de force, feature-length episode that celebrates the genius and success of the series it concludes. Captain Picard is mysteriously travelling through the past, present, and future, taking him from the Enterprise-D's very first mission to the seeming last days of his life. But when Q appears to deliver the Continuum's final, damning verdict for humanity, the Enterprises of three eras must cooperate to save the galaxy and the future of humanity among the stars!Any show that experienced the kind of extended creative and critical success that Next Generation did could be forgiven for limping across the finish line or seeing its inspiration run dry. However, the Hugo Award-winning "All Good Things..." stands as one of the series's finest entries, putting the capstone on a show that had not only brought Trek back to life, but one that had also set the standard for sci-fi shows to come. During our discussion, we talk about the evolution of the series over its seven seasons, the perfect distillation of a TNG episode, keeping time travel fresh, the real life power of John de Lancie, the true nature of the Q Continuum, and the pressures of filming a double-sized episode while you're making a movie.We also talk about the source of Q's name, never working with omnipotent children or computers, dropping the show's name in the episode, the way that rules enable jeopardy, Q as evil Doctor Who, only Americans passing God's tests, whether Q is an angel or a devil, the Yar that could have been, Dave praises the good parts of Turnabout Intruder, and Aaron's still hung up on them god-like aliens!No crying at the poker table!Explore David's work and his movie reviews on his website!https://drgiii.com/Follow David on Twitter!https://twitter.com/davidrgeorgeiiiRead David's latest Trek novel, Original Sin!https://amzn.to/2U1x1zVGet our Trek T-shirts for 305 off on Teepublic!https://www.teepublic.com/user/justenoughtropeTrek with us on Facebook and Twitter and our Facebook group!http://www.facebook.com/eistpodhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/eistpod/http://www.twitter.com/eistpodBuy us cat food on Patreon!http://www.patreon.com/eistpodSubscribe to the show on iTunes!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/enterprising-individuals/id1113165661?mt=2

During our discussion, we talk about the evolution of the series over its seven seasons, the perfect distillation of a TNG episode, keeping time travel fresh, the real life power of John de Lancie, the true nature of the Q Continuum, and the pressures of filming a double-sized episode while you're making a movie.We also talk about the source of Q's name, never working with omnipotent children or computers, dropping the show's name in the episode, the way that rules enable jeopardy, Q as evil Doctor Who, only Americans passing God's tests, whether Q is an angel or a devil, the Yar that could have been, Dave praises the good parts of Turnabout Intruder, and Aaron's still hung up on them god-like aliens!No crying at the poker table!Explore David's work and his movie reviews on his website!https://drgiii.com/Follow David on Twitter!https://twitter.com/davidrgeorgeiiiRead David's latest Trek novel, Original Sin!https://amzn.to/2U1x1zVGet our Trek T-shirts for 305 off on Teepublic!https://www.teepublic.com/user/justenoughtropeTrek with us on Facebook and Twitter and our Facebook group!http://www.facebook.com/eistpodhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/eistpod/http://www.twitter.com/eistpodBuy us cat food on Patreon!http://www.patreon.com/eistpodSubscribe to the show on iTunes!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/enterprising-individuals/id1113165661?mt=2

The Q Continuum.   From the The Original Series onward, Star Trek has had a preoccupation with false gods, culminating in the introduction of Q and the Q Continuum in Star Trek: The Next Generation. But although members of the Q Continuum have many of the properties usually ascribed to deities—such as omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, and so on—do they posses these qualities to sufficient degree to be considered genuine deities of the Star Trek universe?   In this episode of Meta Treks, hosts Mike Morrison and Zachary Fruhling give a philosophical analysis of the Q Continuum and the deity-like attributes of the Q. From paradoxes of omnipotence, such as the Q being powerful enough to create a prison another Q cannot break out of, to the many things the Q don't seem to know despite their supposed omniscience, Mike and Zachary debate, and perhaps debunk, the status of the Q as deities.   Chapters  Intro (00:01:19)  Should We Consider the Q to be Deities?

Q-Strike. A powerful force has been unleashed on an unsuspecting galaxy: a dangerous being who once tested the might of the entire Q Continuum. Now, it's up to Picard and his crew, along with Q and his family, to thwart this enemy and keep the galaxy as we know it from complete and utter destruction. In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Bruce Gibson and Dan Gunther are again joined by The Edge and Earl Grey host Amy Nelson to talk about the final novel in the Q Continuum trilogy, Q-Strike by Greg Cox.

Q-Zone. As the Enterprise holds her own against a swarm of energy creatures determined to keep the crew from completing their mission, Q leads Picard on a journey through his past, where a force even greater than Q and with an even wider cruel streak wreaks havoc on the galaxy. In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Bruce Gibson and Dan Gunther are joined once again by Earl Grey's Amy Nelson to discuss the second book of the Q Continuum series, Q-Zone. We talk about stardate snafus, peer pressure, bad parenting, 0's gang of evil-doers, the end of the TKon Empire, and wrap up with our final thoughts and ratings.

Q-Space. When Q appears on the bridge of the Enterprise-E to stop a scientific experiment, Picard is understandably annoyed. Defying Q, the Enterprise presses on in its attempt to breach the galactic barrier that surrounds the Milky Way. However, they may be in over their heads as cosmic forces collide that may spell doom for the crew of the Enterprise and the rest of the galaxy! In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Dan Gunther and Bruce Gibson are joined by Earl Grey's Amy Nelson to discuss the first book in the Q Continuum trilogy, Q-Space by Greg Cox. We talk about the Enterprise's mission to the galactic barrier, Q's vulnerability, the cliffhanger ending of the novel, some fun bits in the story, and wrap up with our final thoughts and ratings.

Q-Squared. During the original five-year mission, Captain Kirk and his crew found themselves at the mercy of a seemingly-omnipotent being: Trelane. Discovering that he was merely an out-of-control child, Trelane was corralled by his parents, members of the Q Continuum. However, he has now returned to exact vengeance on a new generation...

"Fair Haven" Rewrite.   Voyager fans tend to fall into one of two categories: those that love "Fair Haven" and those that loathe "Fair Haven." In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Zachary Fruhling, Kay Shaw, and Suzanne Williamson attempt to make "Fair Haven" a bit more palatable to the latter with a "Fair Haven" rewrite! Follow the crew of To The Journey in search of the pot of gold-pressed latinum at the end of the rainbow, omnipotent leprechauns, and Fair Haven limericks:   There once was hologram from Fair Haven  Who was stuck in a situation most graven.  He went on a quest  With a clover on his breast  And all the Irish lasses were wavin'.   There once was a Q from the continuum  Who was stuck in Fair Haven for a millennium.  He wore green shiny pants  And caused a romance  And their love was as strong as tritanium.   Chapters  Intro (00:00:00)  What's Wrong with "Fair Haven"?

Episode 41 - In the last week we've had a major change to flip the Alpha Quadrant on it's head! Or have we? Tonight we'll take a look at the "Great Borg Nerfing of '15" and what, if any, of the other factions will emerge from the "end" of the Dark age of Borg.

Voyager Continuity.   Voyager is sometimes criticized for not having the same degree of continuity as Deep Space Nine or Enterprise. But in this episode of To The Journey, hosts Kay Shaw, Suzanne Williamson, and Zachary Fruhling discuss various examples of continuity in Voyager, from callbacks to previous episodes to continuity with the rest of the Star Trek universe. Together Kay, Suzanne, and Zachary argue that, despite all-too-frequent use of the dreaded episodic reset button, Voyager has its own unique brand of storytelling continuity that serves the development of Voyager's overall tale.   Chapters  Intro (00:00:00)  The Dreaded Voyager Reset Button (00:02:21)  The Kazon and "Shattered" (00:04:49)  Vidiians and Dr. Pel - Voyager's Reputation in the Delta Quadrant (00:12:03)  Relationships on Voyager - Continuously Going Nowhere (00:14:34)  Q Cubed - Voyager's Continuity with the Expanded Star Trek Universe (00:17:03)  "Year of Hell" - Is Voyager (Dis)-Continuity Dissatisfying?

Supernatural Elements. The Next Generation introduces several individuals, including some "re-shaping" of our own favorite characters, who are seen as supernatural characters. This can mean that they are either all-powerful, mysterious, tricksters, or "flim-flams." Darren, Daniel, and Phillip create their own originally named "Q Continuum" of supernatural beings, from the scary "Kevin" ("The Survivors") on one end to Ardra ("Devil's Due") on the other.  Supernatural characters can be shrouded in the cloak of religious worship like the Edo Guardian ("Justice") and "The Picard" ("Who Watches the Watchers?") or they could be just a different scale of lifeform like Nagilum ("Where Silence Has Lease") and Q. Join Earl Grey as they seek out new lifeforms who go beyond the realm of human beings and explore supernatural beings in Next Gen.

You see that title up there? That’s right, we watched Son of the Mask to celebrate Halloween. Armin joined the guys to review this legendary bad film. Well, he joined Chris. In a Film Frown first, Paul could not finish the movie. How’s that for a review? Dare to watch it? Buy on Amazon. iTunes And now the review: Chris & Paul claim to be part of the Q Continuum. Showing guests bad movies is the way they test humanity. Production designer on this film did a great job. Makes sense, his other films: Alien, Superman, The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark and An American Werewolf in London. This cinema stinker includes a decent cast of Bob Hoskins, Alan Cumming, Traylor Howard and Steven Wright. This film was nominated for a bunch of Razzies. Unfortunately, it lost to Jenny McCarthy’s Dirty Love. Remember The Chevy Chase Show? Of course not. Son of the Mask was a sequel to an 11 year old movie. In between, there was an animated series. Ben Stein is the only actor to be in both movies and the above cartoon. Who is the better Loki? Alan Cumming or Tom Hiddleston? The Adventures of Milo and Otis. Paul thinks Drew Carey would have been a better Jim Carrey replacement than Jamie Kennedy. All the action in this film is borrowed from the cartoons of Tex Avery. Jamie Kennedy was destroyed in reviews of this film. His coping mechanism was making the documentary Heckler. Armin’s take, Kennedy is no Carrey. The metaphor used, “Simba shouldn’t try to be Mufasa” via The Lion King. Kal Penn is also in this film. Is Odin renting space from Morgan Le Fay who was in a recent film we reviewed, Doctor Strange? Jamie Kennedy’s Mask is less of a party animal than Spuds MacKenzie. Nine Inch Nails performing Hurt vs. Johnny Cash’s version. In other words, make it your own. Hulk sperm from the Mask? The baby learns his hi-jinx from watching Looney Tunes on TV. Is that still on? Also the baby seems to know a pretty famous Exorcist scene. An archive of the Entertainment Magazine Son of the Mask article. Armin likens the film to Madagascar. There’s lots going on and really the Penguins could have their own film. The insane Mask hot rod. Roger Ebert’s review of the film. Why does the baby only use his powers when Jamie Kennedy around? Tribute to Michigan J. Frog? Paul wants a drama version where they lock this kid up like E.T. Recommendations Armin: Madagascar Paul: Thor Chris: Killer Klowns From Outer Space Thanks to Armin for joining us to watch this film (not so much for choosing it). Thanks to you for listening and reading this synopsis. Laters. Support Film Frown on Patreon

The Problem of the External World.  How can you know that the physical world you perceive around you is real and not an illusion, a dream, or a holodeck simulation? In this episode of Meta Treks, hosts Mike Morrison and Zachary Fruhling debate the philosophical problem of the external world through the lens of Star Trek. Mike and Zachary discuss whether it is possible for characters in Star Trek to know for sure that they are not stuck in a holodeck, in a telepathic projection, or in an illusion created by a member of the Q Continuum.  Mike and Zachary consider several possible responses to the the problem of the external world from the history of philosophy, including Rene Descartes's response to his own radical Cartesian skepticism, Hilary Putnam's linguistic response to the "Brain in a Vat" argument, the pragmatic response of rejecting the problem outright, and George Berkeley's theory of idealism as a middle ground between skepticism and empirical knowledge of the external world. Finally, Mike and Zachary re-imagine these classic philosophical arguments in Star Trek terms, including what Descartes's Meditations might have been like if written by the soft glow of the holodeck grid instead of by candlelight, considering Q as the omnipotent "evil genius" in Descartes's "Cogito ergo sum" ("I think, therefore, I am") argument, and re-framing Berkeley's argument for idealism to rely on all-perceiving beings from Star Trek, such as the Q or the Bajoran prophets.  Chapters Welcome to Episode 10 (00:01:20) Introduction to the Problem of the External World (00:02:58) Examples of the Problem in Star Trek (00:12:42) Cartesian Skepticism (00:27:45) Hilary Putnam on "Brain in a Vat" (00:48:22) George Berkeley and Idealism (00:50:56) The Q Continuum and Skepticism (00:53:46) Final Thoughts (01:05:59) Hosts Mike Morrison and Zachary Fruhling   Production Dennis Castello (Editor and Producer) Norman C.

"The Q and the Grey" Commentary. It's time to break out the Civil War costumes and take sides, because the Q Continuum is at war! Wait, what? That's right, war, conducted by an omnipotent species that has claimed it is above such barbaric acts in the past. It is issues like that (and more) that Char and Tristan point out in this episode of To The Journey, where they deliver a commentary on the Season Three episode "The Q and the Grey." But never fear, it is not all negative. Q episodes are fan favorites for a reason. The endless stream of one-liners in this episode alone makes it worth the watch.

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

The crew finds a member of the Q Continuum trapped in a comet. His crime was wishing to shed his immortality and die. The Q we know and love appears, surprsingly in the role of defending the status quo of the Q, and demanding the other Q be returned to confinement. He appeals to Janeway for asylum and she is now duty bound to at least consider his proposition.

Organians on Enterprise. Enterprise is known for bringing back alien races from The Original Series that were more or less ignored by the rest of Star Trek. Andorians, Orions, Tholians, and Gorn all come to mind. But these aren't the only classic races to make an appearance in the 22nd century. The Organians, those energetic agricultural pacifists from "Errand of Mercy," also paid a visit to the NX-01—only it happened in an episode that is easy to overlook. In this episode of Warp Five we're joined by Michael Fisher to discuss the Organians, their background in Star Trek prior to "Observer Effect," how they compare to the Q Continuum, what they were doing on Enterprise, and why—no matter what happens—someone always dies.

Q has a novel idea for ending civil war in the Q Continuum: have a child with Captain Janeway.

A member of the Q Continuum comes aboard Voyager, seeking asylum so he can commit suicide. Q arrives onboard to stop him, leaving Captain Janeway to mediate a moral dilemma.
