Podcast 33: Yesterdays of Yar

Alright! We're back to recording old school -- through Skype! You can tell because J.R. is actually sitting up in Hawaii rather than lying in bed in Monterey. We are STILL out of order. Hopefully you'll be able to follow along in the Season 3 story. It helps that these episodes were made back before full-season story arcs.

So this time we've got three really good episodes plus one incredibly hilarous episode. "Deja Q," "A Matter of Perspective," "Yesterday's Enterprise," "The Offspring."

Podcast breakdown:

0:00 -- nuqneH
6:55 -- Listener mail
20:21 -- "Deja Q"
33:15 -- "A Matter of Perspective"
47:53 -- "Yesterday's Enterprise"
1.17:00 -- "The Offspring"
1.32:06 -- Awards and rankings

Podcast 32: They Drew First Blood!

So we skipped ahead to the Season 3 episodes that have the same theme of the undesirables of a community trying achieve reunification with the whole (often through terrorism). So three episodes were like that and then we also have a Romulan episode (finally). Thematic! Awesome!

Just don't get too confused because these are episodes 9-12 of Season 3. We have yet to watch episodes 5-8. Those will probably be the agenda next time.

Podcast breakdown:

0:00 -- nuqneH, Terminator talk, Star Trek movie talk
11:00 -- J.R.'s world events (college football)
15:22 -- "The Vengeance Factor"
35:31 -- "The Defector"
57:31 -- "The Hunted"
1.14:43 -- "The High Ground"
1.29:01 -- Awards and rankings
1.49:35 -- Qapla' and outtakes

Ahh, the gloriousnessment of season 3! Surely it's way better than TOS season 3, right? Right? Well... hmm. Actually, the inclusion of Bob Kelso does not hurt one bit.
