A Qmen Perspective with Kevin and Johnny Boy The God Thing, the Blue Angel, and the Battle to Remember Who Humanity Really Is Banjo Bread, Solar Storms, and a Grand Rising Start In this episode of A Qmen Perspective, hosts Kevin and Johnny Boy open with gratitude to BBS Radio TV and a warm “Grand Rising” greeting for Asha and Q Day. They promote several related BBS Radio TV shows, including All Learning Reimagined, Whiplash Talk, Project Review with Q&A, and A St. Thomas Show. The hosts then ease into personal conversation, with Johnny Boy talking about making organic bread and Kevin sharing concerns about aches, fatigue, joint pain, and possible ascension symptoms connected to solar activity and incoming energy. When the Sun Feels Different and the Body Starts Talking Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss the possibility that people are feeling physical symptoms from solar energy, photon streams, coronal mass ejections, and ascension-related recalibration. Kevin references astrophysicist Stefan Burns as someone he follows for information about solar activity, earthquakes, volcanoes, and space weather. Johnny Boy agrees that many people seem to be experiencing similar symptoms and suggests that the sun itself feels different in color, heat, and energetic impact. They invite listeners to call in if they are experiencing similar symptoms or energetic changes. Opening the ForThePeople.Space Files The main discussion centers on articles from ForThePeople.Space, which Kevin and Johnny Boy say they have been covering regularly because they believe the site provides important information connected to Q, Asha, awakening, and disclosure. They explain that many listeners may not have time to read the articles themselves, so the hosts offer a “CliffsNotes” style discussion. The first and primary article they examine is titled “The God Thing,” categorized under aliens and the Great Awakening, and tied to a movie script by Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek. Star Trek as a Hidden Memory Trigger Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss the article's claim that Star Trek was not merely entertainment, but a kind of documentary or encoded reminder meant to awaken humanity to a future without war, poverty, or disease. They describe how Gene Roddenberry's hopeful vision of humanity touched viewers because it stirred hidden truths buried deep within them. The hosts frame Star Trek as part of a larger awakening narrative, where fictional stories may carry spiritual or historical clues that help people remember who they really are. Gene Roddenberry's Shelved Script and the False God Ship The hosts summarize Roddenberry's rejected feature-film script “The God Thing.” In the script, Spock senses danger, the Enterprise is refitted above Earth, and crowds on Earth begin receiving impressions that the second coming of God is near. A massive alien ship approaches, destroys another Starfleet vessel, and sends a holographic probe aboard the Enterprise. The hologram appears as Jesus, leading Kirk to identify it as God, but the crew eventually discovers that the being is not divine. Instead, the article describes it as an alien computer-ship entity pretending to be God. Project Blue Beam Echoes and a Holographic Second Coming Kevin and Johnny Boy connect Roddenberry's script to Project Blue Beam and the idea of a staged alien invasion or false second coming. They note that the script was completed in 1975, around the same general era in which Werner von Braun is said to have warned about a fake alien threat. The hosts suggest that Roddenberry may have been foreshadowing or exposing a false religious event involving holographic deception. They emphasize that in the script, the supposed God figure is eventually revealed as Lucifer, a deceiver tied to religious manipulation across planets. Pleasure, Pain, and the Old Empire Trap The discussion turns to a graphic scene from the script involving Kirk being tested through sexual temptation and physical discomfort. Kevin and Johnny Boy interpret this as symbolic of what the article calls the Old Empire's capture systems, which lure spirits through euphoric pleasure mixed with pain. They connect this to Q-related teachings about death, the tunnel of light, memory erasure, and reincarnation traps. Kevin says this reminds him of warnings not to automatically “go into the light,” while Johnny Boy adds that such systems are presented as a way spirits are allegedly captured, erased, and recycled. The Roswell Thread and the Memory of the Spirit The hosts then move into Roswell-related material from the article, referencing the alien pilot Airl and the 1947 Roswell interview narrative. The article describes Airl as speaking about the Domain Expeditionary Force and its efforts to counter Old Empire religious systems. Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss claims that powerful beings from the “creation light ship” incarnated on Earth as teachers to help humanity regain memory and spiritual power. They mention Buddha, Lao Tzu, Jesus, and other figures as examples of beings whose teachings were allegedly distorted by Old Empire operatives. Jesus, Forgotten Power, and the Original Sin of Amnesia Kevin and Johnny Boy emphasize the article's interpretation that Jesus taught humans they could do the works he did and even greater things, suggesting equality of spiritual potential rather than permanent inferiority. They connect humanity's loss of memory and spiritual power to electrocution, DNA manipulation, and Old Empire control systems. Johnny Boy suggests that this manipulation may be the real “original sin,” while Kevin imagines a future in which medical and energetic technologies remove fear of death, restore bodies, extend life, and allow people to retain memory and identity without repeating cycles of amnesia. A Warning About Old Empire Scripts and Religious Defense The hosts discuss the article's claim that Old Empire operatives promoted the idea that Lucifer would come speaking against all religions, thereby conditioning people to defend old doctrines rather than listen to their own spirit. Kevin and Johnny Boy interpret this as a clever control mechanism meant to keep people locked into religious programming. They also discuss the idea that Project Blue Beam has already been stopped by White Hats, President Trump, and military operations that allegedly destroyed the relevant technology, preventing a false alien invasion or fake religious spectacle from being used against humanity. The Blue Angel, Moses, and a Radical Reinterpretation After a music break, the hosts return with the article's section on the Blue Angel, a Byzantine mosaic figure described in the article as the fallen angel Lucifer. They examine claims about the Church of Saint Apollonaris in Ravenna, Italy, and its mosaic of the sheep and goats, with red, purple, and blue symbolism. The article associates blue with coldness, cruelty, underworld energy, and death, while red represents warmth, light, life, and love. Kevin and Johnny Boy also discuss the article's controversial claim that Moses was connected to Lucifer or the fallen angel, citing Michelangelo's horned sculpture of Moses as part of that interpretation. Disclosure Day, Spielberg, and the Claimed Collapse of Blue Beam The hosts then cover material involving Serge Monast, Project Blue Beam, Jeff Bezos, DARPA, Epstein, Mossad, the CIA, Jesuits, Chinese Communist Party operations, Canadian bases, and alleged military actions shutting down Blue Beam infrastructure. They also discuss the article's claims about Steven Spielberg's film Disclosure Day, which the article says was originally intended to help launch Project Blue Beam but was altered after White Hat operations dismantled key parts of the plan. Kevin and Johnny Boy present the material as part of a larger disclosure narrative in which fear-based alien manipulation is being replaced by truth. Mark Twain, Being Fooled, and the Challenge of Disclosure The hosts briefly move to a second, shorter article about Mark Twain, centered on the quote, “It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled.” Kevin and Johnny Boy connect that idea to future disclosure, the expected EBS, and the challenge of helping “normies” accept information they may have rejected when hearing it from friends or family. They suggest that when official disclosure arrives, many people may remember that they had previously been told similar things and begin to understand that they were fooled by old systems. Old Monkeys, Bad Jokes, and a Lighthearted Landing Near the end, Kevin and Johnny Boy shift into humor, trading jokes about aging, aches, natural resources, attention deficit, hearing problems, marriage, and dating. This lighthearted ending balances the heavier discussion of spiritual deception, false gods, and disclosure. They thank listeners for spending time with “a couple of old monkeys on the bar,” and remind everyone to go within the heart, stay in loving frequencies, stay calm, flow like water, remain grounded, reduce phone and computer use, and spend time in nature and the sun. Closing the Perspective With Heart and Grounding The episode closes with Kevin and Johnny Boy saying they enjoyed the discussion, even though it mostly focused on one major ForThePeople.Space article. They emphasize that the material was important and worth exploring carefully. The hosts tell listeners they will return the following Saturday, June 20, for another live show on BBS Radio TV, continuing their discussions of ForThePeople.Space articles on A Qmen Perspective. Their final message is rooted in love, grounding, inner awareness, and preparing for future disclosure.

When a Starfleet propulsion expert comes aboard with an alien assistant, Commander Riker isn't buying any of their bullshit. But after his experiment goes wrong and the Entrepreneur is stranded far from home, the very chill Traveller takes an interest in Wesley and helps bring the ship back safely. How is the piper paid? Does a starship use car math or boat math? Who is the Rudy of this story?

Anika and Liz are thrown into a Klingon prison, where they are absolutely choosing Lorca's pain. But no one is having a worse day than that poor innocent tardigrade!  We're discussing episode five of Star Trek: Discovery's first season, including:  This is the worst Saru episode of the entire series. It's rough, man Overthinking the "five best captains" list For an awful moment, we start to ask dangerous questions like "how many starships does Starfleet have?" This episode is a card trick: your attention is on Harry Mudd, but really it's introducing Ash Tyler Liz has normal and rational feelings about the historical Buran We play a fun game called "which other captains would leave Mudd in the Klingon prison" (Archer) Introducing Ash means we have to talk about Ash, L'Rell and the misguided sexual assault subplot Antimatter Pod: We aren't really into m/m ships Also Antimatter Pod: We will die for Lorca/Tyler Our hot take: Saru did NOT deserve that telescope, this is NOT a sweet scene to be immortalised as a Hallmark ornament, this is REWARDING his BAD BEHAVIOUR

Our Spotlight Series brings us to one of the most highly debated Captains we see in Star Trek....Captain Edward Jellico. When Captain Jellico is brought onboard the Enterprise to take command while Captain Picard, Dr. Crusher and Worf are on a secret mission, things get rocky....especially with Commander Riker and Captain Jellico. Is he REALLY that bad of a Captain or is the crew just too accustomed to Captain Picard?

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.  

Anika and Liz continue their tour of Discovery's first season with "Context Is For Kings", an episode which introduces a whole lot of new regulars and dares to ask: is it possible to like Saru less? It's time to go down the rabbit hole as we discuss:   You are not gonna believe this, but Michael Burnham is the protagonist of Star Trek: Discovery. I know. Huge if true.  But Gabriel Lorca thinks he's the main character of multiple universes. Ellen Landry: one of the all-time worst people to wear a Starfleet uniform, and we are fascinated by her. Lorca absolutely practised his introduction to Michael in the mirror, possibly while flexing, because he's a monster, but he's also a giant dork

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John and Elliot discuss the multifaceted and often unsettling implications of technology and power in our society. The conversation shifts from science fiction, specifically the depiction of Starfleet in Star Trek, to historical events like Pearl Harbor and World War II, examining how societies grapple with traumatic events and the subsequent need for justification and moral clarity. A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on the intersection of government, technology, and ethics, particularly regarding modern infrastructure and military operations. John and Elliot explore themes of systemic responsibility, the role of leadership in shaping national narratives, and the psychological impact of technological advancements, debating how these elements collectively influence our understanding of humanity and progress.

The internet is furious about Starfleet Academy Season One, calling it the downfall of Trek, but did the haters miss the fundamental message? This deep-dive breakdown argues that the young-adult drama is far more than just "messy" and "dramatic"—it's a smart exploration of what it means to rebuild Starfleet in the fragmented, post-Burn Federation-era. The show brilliantly mirrors the cadets' journey of self-definition with the Federation's struggle to determine "What are you now?". We break down how the trauma loop involving Caleb Mir, Chancellor Nahla Ake, and Nus Braka is the true emotional core, and how the cadets ultimately choose Starfleet ideals—empathy, sacrifice, and truth—by forming a powerful "chosen family".

As we continue with our Starfleet's Finest? Spotlight Series, we arrive to TNG's Decent Part I & II. In this episode we highlight Admiral Alynna Nechayev, played by our dear friend Natalija Nogulich. When Data experiences an emotional response killing a Borg drone, something inside him snaps...leading to him involuntarily joining his brother Lore. Admiral Nechayev reminds Picard that if he is given another opportunity, like the one with Hugh, to rid the Federation of a mortal enemy, then he is to take it! The Enterprise follows after him but not at the expense of Troi, La Forge and Captain Picard being held prisoner.

The Enterprise D is tooling along like it does when they jolt out of warp and find themselves face-to-face with a big ass Dyson Sphere! What's a Dyson Sphere you ask? It's a giant shell that encompasses a star, creating a whole new environment for people to inhabit. As crazy as that sounds, the crew finds something even crazier on the surface of the sphere--the wreck of an old Starfleet vessel, the Janolan, and it's showing signs of life! Riker, Geordi, and Worf beam over to find someone stored in the old ship's transporter. Well saints be praised, it's Montgomery Scott! That's right! Scotty! He was chief engineer of the original Enterprise, no bloody A, B, C, or D! Time to break out the booze and the bagpipes! Or is it? Seems being 75 years out of time is making our favorite Scot feel unmoored and without purpose. That is until Picard asks Geordi to take Scotty to the Janolan to recover some ship's logs on the Dyson Sphere. Good thing, too, because the Enterprise D suddenly finds themselves trapped inside the thing with no way out! Will Scotty and Geordi figure out a way to free the Enterprise? Will Scotty find a new life in the 24th century? Will someone please tell us what happened to Uhura?

Join the crew of James, John and Josh as the head into the 32nd century to talk about the newest addition to the Star Trek universe Star Fleet Academy. The crew talks about why this newest edition is Star Trek, why you should check it out and some of there highlights from the season.

When we've reached the end of an era and only three packages remain, their contribution to the show's well-documented problems makes it clear it's time to turn off auto-renew. But after a bunch of FoD questions elicit some new ideas for the show, it seems we're ready for 10 more years of indigestion and loose stool. Which type of museum would Ben and Adam open?

By the power of Grayskull, Trekcast is back! This week, we're diving into the 1987 cult classic Masters of the Universe, starring Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, Courteney Cox, and Star Trek: Voyager's own Robert Duncan McNeill. Does this He-Man adaptation hold up—or is it pure 80s nostalgia? Plus, it's the end of an era: iconic Star Trek sets are being dismantled. What does this mean for the future of the franchise, and should fans be concerned? Ever wanted to own a piece of Star Trek history? We'll break down how you can get your hands on authentic props.

Back in 1993, as Next Generation was in its sixth season, Star Trek launched its next bold chapter: Deep Space Nine, the story of a Starfleet crew taking over control of a Cardassian space station. The cast was rounded out by a (at first) hostile Bajoran officer, a curmudgeonly constable, and a Ferengi shopkeeper. We […] The post Deep Space Nine Season 1 – Earth Station Trek – Episode 258 appeared first on The ESO Network.

Episode Notes Wrongs Darker than Death or Night: Dax wants to do ridge-face. Kira grabs the monkey's paw by the thumb. Dukat "helps" Kira with a complete change in understanding of her mom. Kira doesn't take this well. "Do something about it" doesn't always go well in Trek. Time travel! Airhorn but gross. Mom moves in with Dukat. The price of survival. Inquisition: The episode that breaks Star Trek. Julian is packing for yet another beachside medical conference. Sloan from Internal Affairs says there's a traitor! Julian's been just too nice to the Jem'Hadar. Weyoun? What's even going on here. *booo section 31 boooo* Julian, and the audience, say "this seems pretty shitty". Starfleet still has GLOMAR. Section 31, _in the context of this show_ works, but they got monkey-pawed by events a few years later. Julian rejects the call to (secret) adventure. Justen breaks Jude's brain.

Only Worf would have ANOTHER brother played by none other than Mr. Capulet himself, Paul Sorvino. It's great to see Michael Dorn on his back feet, and, without his prosthetics, he acts even harder. There's a planet being "observed" by Starfleet with a pre-technology culture that's been full-on infiltrated by the un-Prime Directive respecting adopted brother of Worf. The planet is about to die, and Nikolai Rozhenko ain't having it (but he is having a baby.) He cooks up a plan to abduct the people and trick them on the Holodeck, but guess what? Everything goes wrong. Perhaps the prime directive should be respected, Captain.
