At long last we have reached the docking pylon so we can provide the end-of-season wrap up you all love! The DS9 Season 4 RIP is here and it's is a long episode for a reason. What was good? What was bad? Who gave Sisko a run for his money? What other awards do we hand out? Listen and find out!

Három évvel a Wolf 359 ütközet után Sisko parancsnokot a határvidékre vezénylik, ahol a bajori ideiglenes kormány hívására föderációs támogatást biztosít a frissen felszabadult bolygónak. A kardassziaiak kivonulása után Sisko egy romokban álló űrállomás, a Deep Space Nine irányítását veszi át, a kemény feladat azonban hamar elbizonytalanítja: mivel felesége elvesztését még nem dolgozta fel, az instabil térség pedig kisfia, Jake számára sem éppen ideális hely, a parancsnok a leszerelését, és Földre való visszatérését tervezgeti.

Matt and Deb rank all thirteen of the theatrically-release Star Trek movies! Listen as we share how we discovered the original TV show, personal memories of when and how we saw some of the films, and which ones are our favorites.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Series 5, Episode 13. First broadcast on Monday 3 February 1997. Stardate: 50485.2. This week, the Federation faces a dramatic new adversary: Maquis leader and musical theatre gay, Michael Eddington. Sisko is not happy.

It is happening again.Miles and Charlie serve themselves some coffee and a damn fine slice of pie to talk about Twin Peaks as we've had some crossover between one of the lads' favourite TV shows and the one they choose to divide their lives podcasting. With that in mind they're discussing episodes of Star Trek where Twin Peaks regulars have appeared. We're back TNG Season One with ‘Haven' as Lwaxana Troi's giant servant Mr. Homn (played by Carel Struycken who also plays a giant in Twin Peaks, coincidence?) gets into the wine at a pre-wedding dinner as all the parents fight and Troi is about to get married to an inbred cat of a man who was also in Twin Peaks, coincidence? (yes actually). In ‘If Wishes Were Horses,' Colm Meaney clearly wants to punch Michael Anderson who is NOT playing a leprechaun, we're legally obligated to make that distinction and Bashir's creepy Bimbo Dax fetish is revealed for all to see and in Voyager's ‘Hope and Fear,' OH MY GOD- CONSEQUENCES as Ray Wise impresses us while looking like he has a testicle on his head while undertaking a convoluted revenge scheme.Everyday, give yourself a present and don't you think my cousin looks exactly like Laura Palmer?Episodes Discussed: ‘Haven' (20:30) If Wishes were Horses (53:49) Hope and Fear (01:19:27)Talking Points include: We do not take enough drugs to do a Alejandro Jodorowsky podcast, Twin Peaks might have made Miles stop watching Star Trek back in the 90s, the movies of Sam Neil (RIP), Citizen Kane, sometimes a big iconic twist in a film or book overshadows how great the film is due to pop-culture osmosis, Wizard: The Guide to Comics, T'Pau the musician feels like a boring duplicate of Kate Bush, Miles pitches a Star Trek spin-off crime show and practices his pretty poor Twin Peaks impressions, if this were Space 1999 this would end VERY differently, Miles has a new head-canon theory about Data, The Virgin Bill Riker vs. The Chad Will Riker, Harp Porn, what colour would the Star Trek ‘Lodge' be? Colm Meaney looks like he wants to throttle Rumpelstiltskin, Miles has never seen (but wants to see) Carnivale, Julian Bashir's Bimbofication fetish, Miles (like the Joker) likes the keep the reason for his immigration multiple choice, Will Riker would punch Season 1 Julian, even imaginary Sisko is the best dad, we put more thought into the implications of Baseball Team ‘The London Kings' than the writers, soccer is probably a much bigger sport in the future because soccer IS international, extreme-frisbee, Ray Wise's veiny head testicle, Janeway is pretty genre savvy about their chances of getting back to the Alpha Quadrant, Neelix needs a drunk crazy man beard, Torres is probably not going back to prison when they return to Earth (but it'd be funny if she did), the wider geopolitical consequences of Janeway's earlier actions, Ray Wise sells what might be the bleakest ending of a Star Trek episode… with a bollock on his head, why this one parter is a good season finale when they don't try and recapture the Best of Both Worlds energy, how many times has Neelix let a con man on board?

Our good friend Jeff Combs finally arrives in his most iconic Trek role in thisfirst part of our discussion on "To The Death"! We dig deep on every nuiance of this episode as we respect the discussions put on the table by the show itself, from Federation defense posture, Starfleet's increasing need to treat itself as a millitary, Sisko's place as a war leader, and of course the arrival of Weyoun. 

No podcast do Balde do Odo de hoje, Alexandre Bortuluci, Luiz “Morn” Castanheira e Mariana “Kira” Gamberger discutem sobre o vigésimo terceiro episódio da quinta temporada de Deep Space Nine, “Blaze of Glory”. Os klingons interceptam uma mensagem maquis. Através dela eles descobrem um suposto míssil camuflado indo em direção à Cardássia, o que poderia se tornar o estopim do começo da guerra com o Dominion. Sisko decide ir até a prisão onde Eddington se encontra, para convencê-lo a parar o míssil. Ouça em nosso player agora ou baixe nos agregadores de podcast.

At long last the not-at-all-suspicious Commander Eddington definitly does not betray everyone as we review "For the Cause"! While the movie start guest star manages his heist of a bunch of Big Ol' Replicators, Sisko has to deal with possibly having to put his girlfriend in jail. Meanwhile there is a B pplot no one wanted or asked for, but it has Garak in it so it it's not all bad.

Starfleet needs the greatest ninja-SEAL infiltration team in the galaxy to go deep behind Klingon lines and expose Gowron - so they send space station manager Sisko, engineer O'Brien, non-changeling Odo and one of the most recognizable Klingons in history to take on the mission! Meanwhile, Dukat Dukats and Gowron Gowrons.[Episode discussion begins around 1:11:00]

Bienvenidos a una intensa sesión cinematográfica de sábado y a la ronda de preguntas y respuestas del retiro «El Camino». Grabado el 1 de agosto de 2026, David Hoffmeister guía a los oyentes en un viaje hacia el perdón total y el fin del tiempo.El episodio comienza con David analizando una parábola especialmente editada de Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, acertadamente titulada «El fin del tiempo». A través del personaje del comandante Sisko, que se encuentra atrapado por el doloroso recuerdo de la muerte de su esposa, David ilustra cómo el ego utiliza tramas oscuras para justificar una identidad falsa y mantener la ilusión de la separación. Los oyentes aprenden que el Espíritu Santo utiliza precisamente estos papeles y recuerdos para enseñar el contraste, liberando a la mente de su creencia en el tiempo lineal y guiándola de vuelta a la conciencia del Espíritu puro.Tras el comentario sobre la película, David responde a las preguntas del público, abordando temas profundos como:Cómo liberarse de los apegos a los resultados físicos y al controlCómo atravesar la «noche oscura del alma» dejando de lado los cinco sentidos y confiando en la intuiciónCómo el ego utiliza las diferencias y los traumas del pasado para reforzar los sentimientos de falta de valorLa diferencia entre las parábolas del Espíritu Santo y la verdadera comunicación telepáticaSintoniza el programa para descubrir cómo renunciar a tu perspectiva personal, abrazar la verdadera empatía y abrir tu corazón a la alegría milagrosa del amor de Dios.Estos encuentros se llevarán a cabo durante todo el verano, hasta septiembre de 2026, e incluirán comedia, enseñanzas, películas, música, paneles de conversación y sesiones de preguntas y respuestas en vivo con David Hoffmeister.Inscríbete gratuitamente en El Camino aquí:https://programas.elcristoenti.com/courses/el-camino-del-misticoSi deseas conocer más sobre David Hoffmeister y los eventos de Living Miracles, visita:https://www.elcristoenti.com/eventosFecha de la grabación: en línea, sábado, 1 de agosto de 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

No podcast do Balde do Odo de hoje, Mariana “Kira” Gamberger, Alexandre Bortuluci e Luiz “Morn” Castanheira recebem a convidada Ana Rosa Leme para discutir sobre o vigésimo segundo episódio da quinta temporada de Deep Space Nine, “Children of Time”. A Defiant está voltando de uma missão no quadrante gama quando encontram uma anomalia no entorno de um planeta. Apesar do cansaço, a pedidos da Jadzia, Sisko concorda em ir investigar. Ao atravessar a barreira, a Defiant sofre alguns danos, assim como Kira leva um choque que será mortal caso não seja tratada na Estação. Imediatamente eles são contatados por habitantes do planeta que dizem serem seus descendentes. Ouça em nosso player agora ou baixe nos agregadores de podcast.

Another season, another vacation day for the captain as we review "Shattered Mirror". We dive deep on the concepts behind the Mirror Universe, particuarly Feral Historian's video on the concept, as the Sisko's fufill some long held desires. For Jake, it's to hang out with his Kinda Evil Mom, for Ben, it's once again to commit as much violence as possible. Boy  sure hope this one has a happy ending!

20. Oktober 1997: Teil 4 des großen Staffel-6-Handlungsbogens. Der neue Widerstand auf Terok Nor treibt einen Keil zwischen Jem'Hadar und Cardassianer und erringt so erste Erfolge, doch leider scheint ein Weg gefunden, das Wurmloch zu entminen. Damar trinkt, Quark trinkt mit und Odo ist auch schon ganz trunken vom Great Link. Auf Starbase 375 derweil muss Sisko lernen, die Defiant allmählich loszulassen. In Deutschland: Hinter der Linie, ausgestrahlt am 30. Mai 1998.

We get another one of those great hidden DS9 bangers as we review "Accession". When Sisko finds a mild mannered guest star in a Faster Than Lumber, he seems to have a clean out on being Space Elijah. However, when the new guys turns out to be a bit too in to old timey Bajoran racisim he has to finally decide if actually belives in what is happening to him. Meanwhile, The Best Wife in Starfleet wanders back into the story all kocked up, and O'Brien copes with middle aged fatherhood in a way Peter could definitly identify with. 

Our Starfleet's Finest? Spotlight Series brings us to DS9 with the amazing 2 part episode "The Maquis Pt. 1 & 2"! In this episode, we highlight Lt Commander Cal Hudson, a longtime close friend of Commander Sisko. Cal might be the most unique character in our Spotlight Series as he's not a Captain or Admiral. However, as mentioned in Part 1, he and Sisko are the two ranking officers along the Cardassian border and his role in the Federation's struggle with the Maquis is critical. But he doesn't agree with what the Federation has done in abandoning their citizens to keep the treaty...a price to high for the Maquis and for Cal. Cal Hudson is probably the most difficult character in our Starfleet's Finest series. Do you think he's one of Starfleet's Finest or not? Let us know!

Worf finds out that being Klingon nobility isn't all it's cracked up to be as we review "Sons of Mogh"! All that Kling-ron backstory comes back to haunt our newest Deep Sheetz Nine officer as his brother Kurn shows up with a dire request. We dig deep on Worf realizing how human he has become, the uncounted consequences of his actions, and just how many serious felonies Sisko is going to let slide on this station. 

29. September 1997: Vor drei Monaten übernahm das Dominion (inklusive Cardassia) Deep Space Nine, pardon, Terok Nor. Die auf der Station zurückgebliebenen Charaktere – Kira, Odo, Jake, aber auch Quark – wurschteln sich durch das komplexe Geflecht neuer politischer und interpersoneller Beziehungen. Unterdessen gehen Sisko & Co. per Jem'Hadar-Schiff auf ein Himmelfahrtskommando in Feindesgebiet. In Deutschland: Zeit des Widerstands, ausgestrahlt am 9. Mai 1998.

What up, jeeks?

Boys flirting! Bi panic! There's also some ethics of resistance stuff, and a Kira and Sisko figuring out how to trust each other. But let's face it most of us remember this episode for the disaster bisexual boys meet-cute.Podcast socialshttps://bsky.app/profile/9to5scifipod.bsky.socialhttps://www.youtube.com/@9to5scifipodhttps://www.tumblr.com/9to5scifipodhttps://www.tumblr.com/9to5scifipodhttps://patreon.com/9to5scifipodOur vital info:Sara Ezzat (she /her)Creator: The Fat Culture Critichttps://www.youtube.com/c/TheCostumeCodexhttps://bsky.app/profile/saraezzat.bsky.socialRen (they/she/he)Creator: Ren the Barbarianhttps://www.youtube.com/c/RenTheBarbarian/featuredhttps://www.instagram.com/renthebarbarian/https://www.tumblr.com/victorian-sexstachehttps://bsky.app/profile/renthebarbarian.bsky.socialZylla Black (she/they)Creator: Zyllas Athenaeumhttps://www.youtube.com/@ZyllasAthenaeumhttps://www.patreon.com/zyllas_athenaeumhttps://ko-fi.com/zyllablackhttps://bsky.app/profile/zyllable.bsky.socialMusic by Samantha Duke (she /her) aka Skalfxkwww.youtube.com/@SKALFXK https://linktr.ee/skalfxk

Episode Notes Season seven! Jude does some predictions. Justen coins a new word. Image in the Sand: Three plotlines organized by direness. Kira has been promoted to Colonel!Discussion of ranks. A Pah Wraith cult. It's the 90s, armbands = evil. A Romulan? on OUR station? Damarr is now just drinking in the Fuhrer-bunker. Get used to the evil Dominion command center. Romulans have chronic backstabber syndrome. The return of the warcrimes airhorn. Worf isn't doing so well. He believes that Jadzia did not enter Sto Vo Kor, and because the Defiant is on escort duty he doesn't have the chance to win a great battle. Oh look, a (suicidal) solution! Sisko is stewing. Oh look, a prophecy! Ben's mom... was not his mom? A new ORB. Jake annihilates a pah wraith cultist with a bag of clams. ...Dax? Shadows and Symbols: Turns out that Ezri was the only Trill on the ship when worm Dax needed emergency joining. We have to reiterate: cutting your palm is really stupid. Kira's standoff with the Romulans. The quest for the orb mommy. A questionable plan. Damarr, do not bring a sex worker to the Fuhrer bunker. The evilest wine mom. Noodle incident. Desert hunt. The return of Benny Russell. A new vision from the Prophets. Kira solves the Cuban Missile Crisis by saying "I have God on my side." Way too many rejected titles this week.

You know that thing where you show up for a new job and find out you're a messianic figure of prophecy. Okay, maybe that's just a Sisko thing.

Episode Notes The Reckoning: We see Kai Wynn and get angry. Imagine digging a hole and finding your name on the welcome mat. Justen interrupts with some BattleTech news. The Prophets brain-woosh Sisko and tell him about The Reckoning. "I'm an engineer, not a linguist." We have thoughts about the proper handling of ancient artifacts. Pre-doom happy hour? Bashir jinxes it. Will of the prophets, shrug emoji? There is no Kira, only ZUUL. "Just zap her with some chronitons." Wait, is this a Dragonball Z episode? Kira talk-slaps Kai Wynn. We're slapped around the head by the metaphor. The Valiant: SO many red flags in this episode. The Shenandoah, RIP. The Defiant-class to the rescue! Staffed by Red-squad cadets. Obviously what you give teenagers as a punishment for treason is a WARSHIP. The Teens can't shift out of 2nd gear. Space is flat. Nog gets a brevet promotion. Justen gets angry about operational mandate. Main Character Syndrome. Big Damn Hero, subverted. Nog gains command and finally makes the good decision of "let's get out of here". The transfer from "undying loyalty" to "dying for you" is where cults come in. BabSpace9 is a production of the Okay, So network.

This week's episode has a little bit of everything—local politics, a suspicious number of Star Trek–named kittens, some genuinely cool green tech, and a short story that hits you with an existential haymaker. Real Life  Devon's in a "life is… fine" zone, which is either stability or the calm before chaos—we'll let you decide. That leads into a surprisingly interesting question: does a mayor's party affiliation actually matter at the local level? Texas elections are happening right now, and it sparks a broader conversation about how much politics really trickles down into day-to-day governance. Also on the home front: kids' birthday parties, which are somehow both joyful and mildly exhausting. Ben has fully entered his foster-dad era—but for kittens. A whole crew of them: Kirk, Picard, Sisko, Janeway, Archer, and their mom Majel. He claims he didn't name them, which statistically feels unlikely. Either way, it's a Starfleet-grade lineup. Meanwhile, Devon's household remains firmly anti-new-pet, so don't expect a crossover episode there. We also touch on For All Mankind, and then pivot into the upcoming Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender film—specifically the leaks, early reactions, and what happens when studios lose control of the narrative before release. There's some real-world legal tension brewing there. Steven… well, Steven exists this week. (You'll hear it.)   Future or Now  Devon brings in a heavy one: reports that the independent board overseeing the National Science Foundation has been abruptly dismissed, raising serious concerns about political interference in scientific research and long-term innovation. You can read more here:  https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/28/trump-fires-national-science-foundation-board  https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-fired-national-science-foundation-board-b2965242.html  This isn't just bureaucratic reshuffling—it could have real downstream effects on funding, research priorities, and scientific independence. Ben tries to balance things out with something genuinely cool: Mosscrete. https://gorespyre.com/  It's a bioreceptive concrete designed to grow moss directly on buildings using nothing but rain and humidity. No irrigation, no maintenance-heavy systems—just passive, living architecture. It's one of those ideas that feels obvious in hindsight but actually takes some clever engineering to pull off. This whole topic also dredges up a deep memory: Bill Nye's moss-and-milk experiment. If you know, you know. If you don't, you probably just learned something slightly unsettling about childhood science videos. Steven is present in this segment as well. Technically.   Book Club Next Week: Saint Zero of the Hollows and the Eagle Knight by V.M. Ayala https://www.lightspeedmagazine.com/fiction/saint-zero-of-the-hollows-and-the-eagle-knight/  "The only sound Zero heard in their helmet was their own hyperventilating and the gentle pings from their pegasus." That line alone is doing a lot of work. We're excited for this one. This Week: Learning To Be Me by Greg Egan http://thetafiction.com/story/learning-to-be-me/  "I was six years old when my parents told me that there was a small, dark jewel inside my skull, learning to be me." This story landed hard for all of us. It follows a life from childhood to adulthood in a way that feels deceptively simple—until it isn't. The structure does a ton of heavy lifting, and the twist is the kind that makes you immediately want to reread it. We get into some big ideas here, especially panpsychism—the notion that consciousness might be a fundamental property of the universe rather than something that just "emerges." It's one of those discussions that starts philosophical and ends slightly unsettling. If you like episodes that bounce between grounded real life, big-picture science, and brain-bending fiction, this one's for you.

QUARK THE GAMER. We kick off "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month with one of the more memed episodes of Star Trek: the episode where Sisko, Kira, Dax, and Bashir become trapped in a board game brought through the wormhole by gaming aliens from the Gamma Quadrant. Shereese the Sci Fi Savage beams in to see if this one is a TREK, MARRY, or KILL. Check out Shereese's YouTube channel here: The Sci-Fi Savage - YouTube Learn more about your ad choices.

Nothing quite like spicing up your road trip with Cassanova Dukat as we review "Indiscressions". Fresh off his promotional experience, everyone's favorite frenemy gets himself invited along as Kira hunts for survivors of a lost prison ship.

In diesem Dilemma hat Odos geheime Liebe zu Kira ein Wörtchen mitzureden. In Deutschland: Kinder der Zeit, ausgestrahlt am 19. März 1998.

Sisko takes time out of running the station to defend Worf from being too Klingon-y. Is it another great Trek legal foray or will this episode be overruled by Matt or Andy?[Episode discussion begins around 1:12]

The Sisko is joined by another guy who thinks he's the Emmisary (what, can ANYBODY call themselves an emmisary?) and quiet discussion ensues! Oh, and a casual homicide. And the boys asks the question: have Bajorans always been religious kooks?[Episode discussion begins around 53:00]

This week the fate of The Sisko is revealed, sort of, as Sam investigates one of the great mysteries of the universe: What exactly happened in the “Deep Space Nine” series finale? More than a nostalgia trip, it’s a story that sets one of the “Starfleet Academy” characters on a new course. Plus: Our boy Kyle is back! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

When SAM is under pressure from the makers on Kasq, getting into a new class about the unexplainable puts her on the trail of another important emissary. But after exploring the life and legacy of the Sisko, SAM learns she no longer has to defend her choices to succeed. Who didn't get screeners? Which stunt was shot like a ConAir explosion? What is the propellor hat of confections? It's the episode that treats DS9 like a sacred text.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Hailing Frequencies Open - Send us a message!The gang peels back the layer of "Second Skin." We discuss Cardassian decor, hypothesize about a teen Cardassian bedroom, and Sisko becomes a cat. Engage!

Dangers abound back in Sector 001 and that means it's time for a Sisko family vay-cay! Ben and his dad perform at the top of their lungs, Odo escapes Dax's merciless bullying to go seagull-to-seagull with the changelings, while Leah Brahms returns in her secret identity![Episode discussion begins around 50:00]

Sisko is out of commission, Kira finally learns how to treat him like a regular friend and not with all the reverence due the Emissary (had she been doing that?), Worf plays out the ol' "person suddenly in command who needs to learn how to be command" trope, and Bashir and Dax get cracking on retconning Bashir. But don't forget about Odo! Actually, you probably can except for one scene.[Episode discussion begins around 1:23 - for a whopping 2:45 for a regular episode! Mostly nonsense.]
