Podcast 42: Life, the Universe and Everything Trek

The number of this podcast says it all. "Says what?" you ask? Well, perhaps you asked the wrong question. Anyway, It's Halloweentime, so I gotta go work on my costume. Expect a more interesting opening paragraph next podcast.

Sorry for getting this out so late. It is the holiday Halloween season, after all.

Btw, one of us (not Jon) must have used their Mac's internal microphone rather than the headset microphone. The result is hearing everything happening in the entire neighborhood. Also, J.R. is way more coughy than usual. Must have been from the carbon monoxide leak. Also, Jon was waaaay tired when we recorded.

Wow, looks like another long one!

Podcast 41: Then We're Agreed -- Worf Isn't Merry

Okay brace yourselves. We just set a record for the longest JRWSTFTFT to date! Yeah! This is longer than our TOS wrap-up! It's even longer than our Wrath of Khan DVD commentary! Only half of it is dead air. Stop wasting time reading this introductory paragraph and get listening!

This episode is dedicated in loving memory to Kay E. Kuter (1925-2003) -- even though he played a really annoying character in my opinion.

A Slightly Cooler Pic

Found this on Mr. Wheaton's blog as well. Doggone it why can't we get him to notice our Blog? He could send us a voiceover or join a podcast or even just comment and tell us we are losers.

Sweet Pic and Announcement

So I found the following image on Wil Wheaton's blog. I figured it was just aching to be shared here.


In the meantime, expect a recording of podcast #40 within the next few days. Most likely Tuesday at 3 pm MDT (or is it MST now?). We'll let you know.

Podcast 40: The Devil Went Down to Ventax II

Other titles considered for this podcast: "Kissing in the Mouth," "Is It Possible We Need to Make Second Contact on Risa?" and "Sleeping With New Life and New Civilizations." It seems this batch has a bit of a seductive edge to it, what with Ardra, that glasses chick who actually out-riked Riker and also those aliens that liked to visit Troi in her sleep.

If you listen carefully, you can hear J.R. deep cleaning his keyboard during the podcast.

Podcast 39: Keeping Up With the Cardassians

Despite J.R. being stuck in another warp bubble during much of the recording of this podcast, we had some wonderful uplifting discussion on racism, dehydration, pettiness and the whimsy that is "Data's Day."

Also, we OBVIOUSLY recorded this long before the B.Y.U. - Florida State game.

YouTube links that Phil sent us that have to do with the homoeroticy relationship of Jean-Luc and Wesley can be found here and here.

Read a version of the story Flatland mentioned by Joey right here.

Podcast 40 on its way soon!

We've set up a time to record Wednesday at 5:00 pm MDT. I'm pretty sure that's 7 on the east coast, 4 on the west and uhhh... midnightish in England and four days from now in Australia. Someone needs to send us a timezone globe.

Yes, we know podcast 39 was never uploaded, well it's coming very very soon.

We will at least cover:

"Devil's Due"
"Clues"
"First Contact"
"Galaxy's Child"

We may cover if we have time or if we feel like it:

"Night Terrors"
"Identity Crisis"
"The Nth Degree"
"Qpid"

Also maybe whatever episodes are after that.

Send in whatever!

We'll probably be broadcasting live, so you can find us at ustream at one or both of the following:
