#203 – ‘The Q and the Grey’ Voyager S3E11

Captain Janeway receives a rather unlooked-for proposition from Q. Join your omnipotent hosts as they discuss the extremely male perspective of both the plot and humor in this episode, how even ostensibly progressive sci-fi often adheres to traditional and/or neoliberal gender roles in depictions of the future, and the curiously un-examined apotheosis of Tom Paris.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

#62 – ‘Deja Q’ TNG S3E13

Data teaches Q about chocolate and personal sacrifice. Join your omnipotent hosts as they discuss the evolution of character and philosophical development in Star Trek, praise the stream of snappy dialogue in this classic episode, and ponder why Geordi lacks the empathy of his fellow crewmates.

#2 – ‘Encounter at Farpoint’ TNG Pilot

In this installment of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast, Patrick, Dan, and Jesse continue their quest to discuss all the Star Trek pilots with ‘Encounter at Farpoint,’ the episode that introduced the world to the gentle wisdom of Jean-Luc Picard, the aggressive charm of William Riker, and the understated sensuality that is a brace of space-faring jellyfish.  Your hosts are joined by one of the world’s foremost experts on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Daniel H. Johnson, and cover topics including Riker’s anti-android racism, Geordi’s condescending gesticulation, and John de Lancie’s oboist parents.  Also, what exactly was Groppler Zorn’s plan – did he honestly think this was all going to work out in his favor?  Anyway, this is a good one – go get it!
