The Star Trek universe goes teen drama -- and, for once, does it in the/a future instead of the pre-TOS "past." Since it's a Trek property, Andrew returned to talk about Paul Giamatti feasting on his anachronistic lines, whether the show works better as sci-fi or Space High, and where it ranks in Paramount-era Trek shows. We went Around The Dial with Ponies, Andrew's middlebrow-TV catch-up, and Shining Vale before Tara used up her djinn wishes on a What We Do In The Shadows Canon entry. Profilers won, McConaughey lost, and we prayed for guidance in a religious-network Game Time. Escape from your hidden prison planet and join us!GUESTS

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Listener Tom says, I'm a software developer with six years experience, mostly at small startups with engineering teams anywhere between 2 and 10 developers. Because these startups have been small, most of the interviews were really casual. I'd speak to either the CEO, or CTO about my past experience, and we would talk about the direction the company was heading, and whether I'd be interested in joining. They felt less like interviews, and more like free-flowing conversations. I'm now back on the market, and I'm looking at larger, more established tech companies. I can get past the tech interviews just fine, but I'm struggling with the soft-skills interviews. Compared to what I'm used to they're a lot more structured and it feels like they're looking for answers that fit a certain criteria and format. What advice would you give to someone used to interviewing at small startups, but now interviewing at larger companies? I took an unpaid full stack internship role at a new non-profit, and it turned out to be a team completely made of other interns. There isn't a single experienced engineer on the team. I have gone way deeper than originally intended and am now functionally a founding engineer where the founder pretends I'm a lead engineer and calls me an intern. The founder is also hellbent on having the highest development velocity, and sometimes will contribute their own AI-generated code, often bypassing the review process especially for things I'm not comfortable signing off on like an AI-generated TOS and user agreement. I recently learned that the founder is not viewed highly in their local area after a scandal where they were accused of scamming a large sum of money, which is likely why they are doing their free community projects they started now in order to save face. This has backfired, and now people are calling their projects “AI generated schemes” despite the services being completely free. I'm not sure if I should continue contributing to these projects anymore. Since the founder rushes things to get done, walks through legal areas with their AI “lawyer,” and has a bad image, I'm worried about whether my resume will be taken seriously by potential future employers. Should I continue working for this person or is the experience not worth it?

We've made it past the galactic barrier and no one's gotten tinfoil eyes so it looks like the mission is a go in "Rosetta"! But on the way, we spot some neat Dyson rings and a deserted planet, and decide the latter is the more intriguing place to visit. But it pans out when it seems poor atmospheric safety standards may hold the key to communicating with Species 10-C! Also this week: nerfing Zora, failing Adira, and reading science fiction!

Long before The Next Generation brought LCARS to life or 3D printers made cosplay easier, Star Trek fans relied on one book to make the Enterprise feel real: The Starfleet Technical Manual by Franz Joseph. In this week's episode, Larry Nemecek welcomes back Karen Schnaubelt, daughter of Franz Joseph, to mark the 50th anniversary of that seminal 1975 publication, just weeks after its surprise appearance atop the New York Times bestseller list. More than just a how-to guide for warp drives and turbo lifts, the Tech Manual became a cornerstone of Trek fandom and helped lay the foundation for the Star Trek revival that followed. Karen reflects on her father's unique journey from retired engineer to pop culture icon, how the Technical Manual grew out of lunch-hour sketches and club meetings, and what it was like watching fandom embrace a book that treated Star Trek like a living universe. Plus, Larry and Karen discuss how that very success may have stirred some tension in Gene Roddenberry's orbit.

Writer/producer Mike Sussman returns to The Trek Files with a personal favorite: the creative and very meta preface to Gene Roddenberry's novelization of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. In it, Gene (writing as himself and as Admiral Kirk) casts the original Star Trek series as a fictionalized dramatization of real events. Wait… what? Join Mike and Larry Nemecek as they unpack Roddenberry's playful (and possibly defensive) retcon of Trek canon, written at a time when Gene was emerging as a sci-fi thought leader in the post-Star Wars, post-lecture-circuit era. It's Roddenberry as revisionist historian, spinning group consciousness, mind control revolts, and alternate human evolution… all in the introduction to his own movie tie-in novel. You may never look at the "real" Kirk, or Trek canon, the same way again.

In this episode of Tech Talks, Julian Dibbell is joined by partner Brian Nolan and associate Megan Fitzgerald to unpack how companies can protect AI assets and outputs using IP strategies. The conversation maps the key protectable components of AI—algorithms and code, trained models and parameters, proprietary datasets, and outputs—and evaluates the strengths and limits of trade secrets, copyrights, patents, and contracts. They highlight why trade secrets are particularly powerful for AI while probing emerging "improper means" issues like scraping, prompt injection, and ToS violations. They also survey evolving copyright law on human authorship and fair use in training, and discuss patent inventorship guidance and eligibility trends, before closing with practical contracting approaches to allocate data rights, output ownership, and IP strategy.

What happens when your sci-fi franchise is also a part-time science think tank? This week, Rick Sternbach returns to The Trek Files to discuss a set of internal memos he and Michael Okuda sent to the TNG production team, an essential peek behind the curtain at how plausible science and week-to-week TV production collided during the Berman era. These "tech notes" weren't just background noise. They helped shape the direction of key episodes, lent credibility to futuristic concepts like nanotechnology and AI, and quietly preserved Trek's internal logic. From computer core comparisons to white dwarf fragments, Rick walks us through how the art department helped make the 24th century feel real and even got a line read by Scotty. Whether you're a longtime fan of the TNG Technical Manual or just someone who geeks out over starship systems, this one's for you.

Explore a complex case of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, double crush, & triple crush injuries. Learn about diagnosis, treatment, & patient support. Q: Overview of Neck, Nerve, or Both? A: My wife experienced numbness in her upper extremities. As an athletic trainer (AT), I initially suspected Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). She eventually sought medical attention and was diagnosed with TOS. Conservative treatment, including medication and a home exercise program, was recommended. However, therapy seemed to worsen her symptoms. An MRI of the vascular system came back normal, except for a benign thyroid mass. A cervical MRI revealed stenosis in C5, C6, and C7, which, when combined with her other symptoms, provided clarity. I consulted a spine surgeon, who advised exhausting conservative options before considering surgery for insurance coverage. My wife, who has a fear of anesthesia, opted for pain management and received injections. An EMG to rule out carpal tunnel syndrome indicated 70% carpal tunnel involvement. An upper extremity specialist diagnosed a double crush injury, meaning nerve compression at two sites. She underwent left-side carpal and cubital tunnel release, followed by a two-level cervical fusion. Post-surgery, she regained sensation in her pinkies. The right side was subsequently treated. She experienced relief for about a year before numbness recurred. Another round of CT, MRI, and EMG scans returned normal. Pain management suggested a shoulder issue, leading to an MRI of the shoulder. While the report mentioned a slight rotator cuff tear, a physician who reviewed the scans deemed her shoulder pristine. This doctor’s examination of her neck, however, exacerbated her symptoms, leading to a diagnosis of lower brachial plexus TOS. Despite my initial concern about the previous treatments, the doctor affirmed that the cervical fusion was necessary. A C8 nerve block did not provide relief but offered further diagnostic information. We were then referred to a specialist in Dallas, where a diagnostic nerve block in the scalenes provided immediate relief. Months later, Botox injections were administered for extended relief. The doctor’s words, “How does it feel to not be crazy?” significantly validated her experience. She then underwent a first rib removal on the left side, which resulted in an 11-day hospital stay with complications including two chest tubes, a needle aspiration, and 100cc of fluid in the pleural cavity. Upon returning home, she began physical therapy but developed shortness of breath with deep breaths due to a costochondral fracture, likely from the chest tube or aspiration. She is currently awaiting a consultation for ultrasound injections to address this. The journey continues. Q: What inspired you to share this story? A: The primary motivation was to share the complex journey and its takeaways. This case involved a “triple crush” — compression at the first rib, cubital tunnel, and carpal tunnel. A key takeaway is the importance of acknowledging when you “don’t know, but know the next step.” In healthcare, we often focus on obvious issues, but a broader perspective is often needed before returning to specific concerns. It’s also crucial to acknowledge the psychological toll on patients without answers, highlighting the profound impact of chronic pain. Q: You mentioned how emotionally draining the journey was. What advice do you have for clinicians to support patients? A: Remind patients that recovery is an “ultramarathon, not a sprint.” Reinforce this message, as other healthcare professionals will likely echo it. Sometimes, when my wife is in pain, she doesn’t want to discuss it, and that’s acceptable as long as I am there to support her. The doctor’s validation, “How’s it feel to not be crazy?” significantly improved her emotional well-being. Supporting patients in seeking further opinions is also vital. Q: Overlapping issue on a personal level, how did you navigate the multiple diagnoses? A: My ability to navigate this well stems from my access to top medical professionals through my profession. My connections as an athletic trainer allowed me to consult doctors and seek referrals. While they may not know specific TOS treatments, they can guide us to the appropriate specialists. Q: Any difficulties separating the Athletic Trainer (AT) role from the husband role? A: There were no difficulties in separating the AT from the husband role. My wife knew me as both from the beginning of our relationship, so there was no separation or conflict.

Before Star Trek: Discovery unmasked the Breen in season 5, they were little more than an enigma in the Trek canon, name-dropped but rarely seen. This week on The Trek Files, Discovery writer and producer Carlos Cisco joins us to talk about tracing those first cryptic mentions of the Breen, buried in The Next Generation scripts for "The Loss" and "Hero Worship," and how they helped inspire the character of L'ak and a new chapter in Star Trek storytelling. Carlos reflects on working with the Discovery team to shape the Breen arc and what it means to tell stories that are simultaneously new and rooted in Trek history. Along the way, we look at how offhand script references from 1990 can fuel major plot threads decades later and how today's writers sometimes find the best inspiration in yesterday's margins. Don't miss this conversation about canon archaeology and how the smallest details can echo across centuries.

After seven seasons and one very contested transporter accident, we welcome Voyager executive producer and co-creator of Tuvix, Ken Biller, for a wide-ranging conversation about the legacy of Star Trek: Voyager. Guest co-host Earl Green joins John to explore the creative pressures behind the series finale, the constraints of '90s television, and how a light-hearted idea about a goofy transporter mix-up became one of Trek's most morally complex debates.

This week, we open the Starfleet personnel file for Admiral Jonathan Archer, a detailed biographical memo written by Star Trek: Enterprise writer/producer Michael Sussman for the fan-favorite episode "In a Mirror, Darkly." It was only meant to be a quick background graphic, so how did it evolve into a fan-favorite bit of canon? And why did Mike sneak "President of the UFP" into the character's résumé without telling the showrunners? Larry welcomes Mike to The Trek Files to revisit the creation of this in-universe bio, share behind-the-scenes memories from the final days of Enterprise, and unpack how a throwaway idea from 2005 became the seed of a new series pitch, Star Trek: United, which imagines Archer in his presidential years. From secret nods to The West Wing, to collaborating with Andy Probert on "Space Force One," this episode is a crash course in how Trek canon can be built with equal parts creativity and chaos.

Podcasting. Podcasting never changes. Except for all the times we break from "Trek" to talk about something else, which we're doing again to discuss "Fallout" season one! With the second season just around the corner, we're talking the very successful video game adaptation that brought Interplay and Bethesda's (and to some extent Obsidian's) wasteland to a wider audience. There's Ghouls, Vault Dwellers, and Power Armor, so pull up whatever bit of pre-war trash counts as a seat around here and listen in! Also this week: hot zombies, cold villains, and chilling motivations!

Before it was a spoon-shaped ship lost in the Delta Quadrant, the U.S.S. Voyager was a series of sketches, foam-core models, and engineering daydreams from the mind of artist and tech consultant Rick Sternbach. As we continue marking the 30th anniversary of Star Trek: Voyager, Rick returns to The Trek Files to walk us through the behind-the-scenes process of designing one of Trek's most distinctive starships. From the early design directives—"smaller, leaner, faster"—to the collaborative process with producers like Rick Berman and Jeri Taylor, we explore how Voyager took shape on paper and on screen. Along the way, Rick and Larry discuss the evolution of Voyager's signature articulated nacelles, the integration of set blueprints into exterior design, and the legacy of real-world science and scientists (including Minsky and Bussard) that informed Trek's fictional tech. And yes, Rick even drops a bit of headcanon about post-Delta Quadrant refits to the Intrepid-class. Is the EMH evidence that Voyager's computer is sentient? Did the Voyager design secretly borrow from The Runabout? Could curvier nacelles have saved the timeline? This week, we boldly go into the mind of one of Star Trek's most influential designers.

Would this be a good episode to watch while high? Ryan and Brady discuss the (mostly aesthetic) positives of this late Season 2 TOS episode and generally have a good time talking about a shaggy thing that isn't really very good, but it's got those TOS vibes. Sometimes, that's all you need.

When a private sub-space message is “delivered” to the Enterprise, Kirk and Co. make their way to Star Base 11. But when Spock takes this opportunity to abduct captain Pike and the ship, there's no TAL-ing what can happen. Is this Spock from an alternate Trek timeline? Will Bones address the elephant on the bridge? Can Pike scratch that itch? It's the episode that doesn't say “fire” but leaves its finger on the button.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.

In "Stormy Weather" Zora decides to be a difficult little AI. What's new in sci-fi, though, right? Except instead of evil, she's decided she needs to have crippling anxiety that keeps her from doing her job. Ok, I guess that IS a new one. Meanwhile, Book has gotten zapped and is being haunted by the ghost of his crappy dead dad, or maybe just a hallucination of him? Either way, he's a jerk. Also this week: robot pain, the healing power of board games, and sci-fi weaponry!

This week, The Trek Files returns to one of our most personal corners of Trek history. Reinelda Estupinian,known lovingly as Reina, joins us again to share rare family photos and her firsthand memories of life inside the Roddenberry household. Hired in 1974 as a nanny for six-month-old Rod Roddenberry, Reina became a trusted part of the family for over three decades, eventually working closely with Majel Barrett Roddenberry at Lincoln Enterprises. Reina shares candid and touching stories of those years: traveling with the family, managing Majel's whirlwind convention life, and offering emotional support through Gene's declining health and Majel's final days. With affection and a few sitcom-worthy anecdotes, she paints a vivid picture of the private lives behind Star Trek's public legacy.

When Kirk and co. stumble upon an unavoidable-glowing-cube-boi they get stuck in an awkward spot. But when Balok toys with the way The Enterprise normally handles new encounters, it's time to see what the alien looks like and escape the tractor beam. Is Spock too cool for school? What's that big ear-spring? Have Halloween decorations improved?

On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and I encounter the most advanced multitronic unit of the 23rd century: Richard Daystrom's prototype M-5 computer. Otherwise known as Dick “Defense-Ain't-Murder” Daystrom's Destruction Device. We'll get into this catalyst for Kirk's existentialist nightmare, maman, and maybe even explain how this could have been the perfect series finale.

Hollywood has gone back to the well, or maybe it's the library, with its recent remake of "The Running Man". So we've decided to take a look at both of them! In each dystopian future, life is awful but everyone agrees the best way to get through it is to watch people get hunted down in the titular game show! Arnie's a cop who took a while to realize he was a baddie, while Glen Powell is an ordinary guy who wants to do the right thing but forgot to get his anger issues fixed. On the way we'll meet side characters of varying wackiness, hostages of varying acting abilities, and satire of varying levels of focus! Also this week: should've called Paul, normal man v action figure, and product placement!

What happens when fans learn their beloved Star Trek is returning, but not the way they expect? This week on The Trek Files, we take a mid-season dive into the pre-internet letter-writing era of fandom with a look at Interstat #109, a Star Trek "LOC-zine" published just after the announcement of The Next Generation in late 1986. With Mission Log host and producer John Champion joining Larry, we revisit that first wave of passionate, skeptical, and sometimes prophetic reactions from fans adjusting to the idea of Star Trek without Kirk, Spock, or the original cast. From fears about recasting to early excitement about a new crew, these letters reveal a fandom both resistant to change and deeply hopeful for Trek's future. And while the tone may be more thoughtful than today's drive-by social media culture, the underlying emotions haven't changed. Together, John and Larry reflect on how fandom evolves, why backlash often masks deep investment, and how publications like Interstat helped shape the Trek we know today—slowly, one stamp at a time.

Segment 1 – News and Notes1.We had our first significant trade of the season as the Orioles traded Grayson Rodriguez to the Angels for Taylor Ward.a.Both teams are starved for pitching, and while G-Rod has never been healthy, he has good stuff with four years of team control. Taylor Ward becomes a free agent after this season.b.Unless the Orioles haven't told us that G-Rod's arm will fall off at some point next season, it's hard not to like this for the Angels. I will say, the Angels did not do a physical. I'm thinking that was part of the deal – you're buying low, so no give-backzy. 2.Raisel Iglesias signed back with the Braves. He had stretch where he was awful and lost his job. Is he the closer going into camp? Is he somebody you're comfortable drafting as a closer?3.Non-tendered players – Surprised, any worries they will sign somewhere?a.Adolis Garica (OF, Tex)i.Who gets his playing time?b.Nathaniel Lowe (1B, Bos)c.Christopher Morel (DH, TB)d.Alek Manoah (Atl, RHP)4.Kazuma Okamoto was posted. What do we know about him?Segment 2 – Fantasy Questions of the NL East – Marlins, Mets, Phillies, and NatsMiami Marlins1.Jakob Marsee – Let's hear it.a.AB, HR, SB, and BA – 12 HR, 35 SB, .2702.I know you've been a big fan of Connor Norby in the past. In a bit over a half-season, he went 8-8, making him a 15-15 player with a .250ish batting average. That's not an awful player, but he's been drafted as one. His ADP is 387, and he's the 30th third baseman off the board.a.What are your thoughts on Noby this season? Are you interested?3.Kyle Stowers had his breakout last season, posting a .288 batting average with 25 home runs in only 117 games. He's going as the 28th outfielder off the board.a.Would you feel good about him being your #2 outfielder?4.Sandy Alcantara was terrible last season, and now he's the 66th pitcher off the board (50th starter). I think I recall you saying you wanted him to pitch poorly last year, so he would drop in 2026. Has he dropped enough for you to be interested?5.When Ryan Weather has played, he's been ok. Unfortunately, he seems always to be hurt. He's the 120th pitcher off the board (call it 85 to 90th starter) – your 6th starter. Is that someone who interests you at the moment, or is it a pass?6.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)New York Mets1.The Mets appear to be moving on from Pete Alonso so they can move Vientos to first and Baty to third. Do you like this move or do you believe the Mets will keep Alonso?a.Baty's ADP is 259 and Vientos is 256. Who would you rather have?2.Francisco Alvarez started to show signs of being an impact player, slugging 11 home runs in 76 games. He'll just be 24 next season. Over/Under 20 home runs?3.Will Jeff McNeil be the full-time second baseman for the Mets in 2026? He's on the last year of his contract?4.Kodai Senga posted decent numbers in 2025, posting a 3.02 ERA with 109 strikeouts and 55 walks. However, he spent time in the minor leagues and continues to struggle throwing strikes?a.Stat line for 2026: wins, ERA, and K'sb.There's been rumors that the Mets will trade him this winter? What say you?5.Who will be the Mets closer in 2026?6.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)Philadelphia Phillies1.The Phillies could lose several players to free agency, including Kyle Schwarber and JT Realmuto. Do they resign these guys or try to get younger?a.I guess the problem is, are there minor league players that can step in or do they need to dip into free agency?2.Related to #1, the Phillies team still has Harper, Turner, and Cristopher Sanchez, but overall, the team doesn't look great. Dumbroski always finds a way, but is this a playoff contender for 2026?3.Andrew Painter – 2026 stats – IP, ERA, K's4.Zach Wheeler is expected to be back by the end of May. Before the injury, he was one of the best pitchers in baseball, but he had TOS surgery, which doesn't have a great track record for pitchers. He's the 52nd pitcher off the board, or the 39th starting pitcher off the board. Do you feel comfortable with Wheeler being a stronger #3 starter on your team? He was a top 5 pitcher selected in 2025.5.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)

When a cargo exchange with a penal colony puts a clever escapee aboard the Entrepreneur, Bones is suspicious of the famous Doctor Adams and pressures Captain Kirk to investigate. But after beaming down with Dr. Noel and jumping into the lobotomy recliner himself, Kirk resists interrogation and Adams learns exactly why his treatment is a failure. What's the best way to avoid a workplace accident? Which word is particularly remarkable in an Australian accent? How does a photocopier need to be cleaned? It's the episode with a very dangerous dimple.Watch the Mug Draft video: https://youtu.be/6koqRJT4rzESupport 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.

When the Entrepreneur receives an SOS from an exact copy of Earth, the only question that interests the crew is whether anyone might still be alive. But after the away team kills a zombie and meets some kids who are hundreds of years old, they become infected and have to work out a cure to make it out of quarantine in time. Is there a correct number of mugs? How does a flat Earth captain orbit a planet? What could be considered assault on a playground in Los Feliz?

On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and I learn that sometimes it's best to let Sargons be bygones - especially when you meet douche bags with big ball energy who like to call ya “son”! Hide your Muldaurs and hide your Spocks, maman! They're snatchin' everybody out here!As we continue our rewatch/first-watch of The Original Series, we find ourselves face-to-face with LIGHTS IN BALLS... or rather, the now-non-corporeal entities who used to be humans millennia ago, desperate to make it back into human bodies -- but becoming human comes with weaknesses, maman! Sargon, this sounds familiar... We're talking Star Trek 2x22, “Return to Tomorrow”

When the Entrepreneur arrives at Dr. Korby's last known location, Nurse Chapel is on speakerphone when he calls up Captain Kirk. But after they beam down to meet his new “friends” and lose two crew members in the caves, Dr. Korby shorts out on love and wipes the slate clean on his mechanistic culture. Which sport is really disgusting? What new square won't be added to the game of buttholes? How are dishwashers shaped on Exo 3?  It's the episode that imagines a future of rope chairs.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.

Things Discussed: Bryce Underwood: Progress isn't linear. Jordan Marshall and the offensive line: The redshirt freshmen will save us! They're already playing at close to a Big Ten level. Defense: Purdue was very college crappe. I asked them to be vanilla, they were, and I'll take my lumps. Mad at special teams for not putting them back enough because the way Purdue plays they need to be able to take a TFL or a sack, or need to have a 4th down strategy. We're rotating an extreme amount, also there are extreme levels of injury: Any team that loses Rolder, Sullivan, and Barham isn't going to be great at LB. Protected the kids by blitzing them. Vance disappointed in the DTs: they were in the wrong gap sometimes on those LB blitzes. I saw Pierce do that once in the 1st half, haven't gotten to the 2nd half yet. DTs to me are Benny & Pierce, then a big gap to a lot of innings eaters, where Etta is more of a pass-rush option and Payne, Williams and Ike. You're playing a tempo team and they're only in there for three snaps. Running the DTs on and off the field is wearing them out as much as playing. Three snaps is three deadlifts of a 300-pound guy, then you're sprinting a 300+ pound body off the field. Too much rotation: They got on a 19-play drive with a quarter break and at no point in that drive did Michigan have their best available players on the field at over 50% of the spots. Brandt is not on Moore's or Guy's level. Ratios are way off. Brandt plays as much as Derrick, more than Guy. Are guys going to leave if they don't get PT? That's true but 1) That doesn't explain having starters playing 40% of snaps, 2) That's not the culture of this program. The culture of this program wasn't "You get yours" it was "Egos don't matter as much as the Team." That 2023 team had multiple "starters" because Harrell and Stewart could both play at a high level, sophomore D-Mo and McGregor could both play at a high level. If it's a program goal to get guys snaps against Purdue, go and beat Purdue first and then when you're up three touchdowns get your guys in. Offense and Bryce: He's young and doing young guy things like fleeing the pocket and forcing throws he's used to throwing. He had a terrible half and a decent half. Can't really blame Chip because he's giving him the reads, e.g. a wheel to Klein that takes advantage of Purdue taking away screens, and he throws it at Klein's feet. Also: he doesn't have receivers who make those plays for him when they're there. Klein should have caught that ball. Semaj had another one whistle through his hands. McCauley didn't adjust to a ball in the endzone. Go watch any freshman QB and you see the same things: Watch JJ in 2021. Watch Gardner when he was young. Go under center? Might help the run game but Crimes Against Man Panda. Craig talks about the 1939 Bears. Men's Hoops: Oakland was bad. Open corners were just there, they were missing two players, run a complicated zone with a new team. Trey McKinney is a knockdown shooter, and he has a little Darrius Morris (RIP) in his game. He's not Mike Smith, won't have short-arm turnovers. Good sign he can use his long arms productively. Cadeau: Wonder if he's going to have more TOs against Wake Forest. If he can keep turnovers under control this team will be very good. Defense has a very high floor. Michigan has three bigs instead of two this year, means their second-best lineup won't be a massive drop from their best. Didn't have Cason, might be that sixth guy of the year (or your starting two?) who can be Plan B for point guard and competently relieve Roddy when they full-court press him. Solution for press: Mara? Just have the freaky tall guy pass it without putting the ball on the floor. Women's Hoops: Very interesting team. They're five-out, swarming. Lots and lots of turnovers.

On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and Dave learn what a sensual thing an apology can be – and that if you drink too much ya might turn green, maman! Or your drink might, anyway. As we continue our rewatch/first-watch of The Original Series, we find ourselves face-to-face with the Kelvans, desperate to make it back home to their Andromeda galaxy -- but becoming human comes with weaknesses, maman! We're talking Star Trek 2x21, “By Any Other Name.”

When Kirk & Co. pick up an untrustworthy businessman named Harvey Mudd and his women associates, the men on the Enterprise are overtaken by a spell. But when Mudd turns out to be making deals behind Kirk's back, it's finally time to pry off this annoying barnacle. Will Kirk be able to withstand the spell?
