Our biggest episode yet! Based on number of guests. We're recording without our usual equipment setup, but at least things didn't get too bumpy. And in the episode, some things were getting decidedly unbumpy...

Shran gets mad, Trip teases Malcolm, Archer gets to be the hero via physical combat, and Travis is under-utilized. I think that narrows it down, right?

Dear listeners, please come and be observers for our show! Not the kind that possess our bodies, though. Well, maybe Trudie's? Would Trudie enjoy having her body possessed? Hmm. Anyway, we really enjoyed this one, as season 4 gets back on track. And EVERYONE in the cast gets to do something.

Come listen to us wax poetic about this episode about the inventor of the transporter! The show tries to give us a lot of feelings, but flies too close to the sun and doesn't quite manage it. But their main guest star really soars. And Mandy wants it on record that she is responsible for none of these puns.

This one is kinda like Search for Spock, but without Christopher Lloyd, or emotional resonance. But Trudie enjoyed recording the episode with us, so at least we had fun. Hopefully the next episode will make up for this one.

So, it was a little while between recording and writing this summary, so we kinda forgot what happened in the episode. You can assume that Porthos was the star, and that either Travis or Hoshi got sidelined for the episode. I'm pretty sure we actually liked this one, too. There were definitely Vulcans in it.

Also, this podcast has now officially been acknowledged by Brannon Braga! I think that means we're canon now?

Welcome to the season finale, things are going to get weird. We're wrapping up season 3, and now's a great time for you (dear listener) to send in your superlatives for the season! You know the email address. And as an aside we forgot to mention on the show, why do you need to rotate glowing cylinders in the right order to overload the superweapon? It doesn't really make any sense. And, besides that, Archer is very bad at following directions for this sort of thing.

We waited almost three weeks to edit and post this, after recording. So, probably too late to wish Mandy a happy birthday. Fortunately, the crew of the NX-01 is much more punctual. They have no time to lose, as they race against the clock to save Earth from the Xindi superweapon.

We are Star Trek podcasters. That is why the word "bum" keeps ending up in our episode titles. Really, this... wasn't supposed to be like this. At least our episode titles don't feature any superscripts (aside from the repetition of TV show's episode title, as best we can). This episode was a step down from the last few, but it sure generated a lot of discussion. Please enjoy!

We wanted a title for this episode with as many layers of meaning as the episode's title has. I think we did ok. As far as the show goes, quality lightning has struck two episodes in a row. Things get pretty dark for the crew of the NX-01, but not all hope is lost.

Did we realize that this would be one of the best episodes of the show, and that it would take us well over a month to get around to watching it? Nope. But there's no time like the present, so buckle up, put on your compound eyes, and listen to us talk about Star Trek. We'll try not to leave you (or us) hanging so long for the next one.

Dr. Phlox is in charge of the ship while it travels through a Big Scary Space Thing, with only T'Pol and Porthos for company. T'Pol is definitely real, just like the chef, and this plot is definitely unique in Star Trek history. At least there's lots of dog!

This episode's biggest feature was a lot of hand-to-hand combat stuntwork. We don't mention that on the podcast, because we didn't care. The rest of the episode, we do talk about. If the episode were a sentient entity that could wish things, it would probably wish we hadn't. Also, a digression on forks.

Phlox expands his services to include hair extensions, tattoos, and thoroughly unnerving worms. The rest of the crew expands their services to include escape room design. This was an enjoyable episode, so let's hope they continue along their new career paths. Bonus: our youngest co-host expresses some strong opinions on Star Trek: Nemesis, and we talk about Star Trek: Nemesis for reasons other than pointing out that it was terrible.

Is this the least inspired episode of Star Trek we've ever seen? No, but only because TNG did an actual clip show one time. The NX-01 crew hang out on a Wild West set full of stereotypes and confused metaphors. Our baby, who is a more creative writer than the ones for this episode, chimes in with his opinion.

Welcome to At Least There's a Dog, the podcast where we recognize when characters on Enterprise get killed off, even though no one on the show does. We actually rather liked this episode. Sure, Star Trek has done the scary future thing before, but they did it rather well here. Also, can T'Pol keep wearing a real uniform from now on?

We decided to try the Friends episode title convention. It was hard to decide which of the many titles which uniquely describe this episode to use. The One Where Scott Bakula Over-Acts. The One Where the Guest Star Steals the Show. The One Where Travis Mayweather May or May Not Even Be There. So hard to choose.
Anyway, something something kemocite, infiltration, Xindi, light treason, et cetera.

Welcome to another episode of Jonathan Archer Makes Bad Decisions in the Delphic Expanse. Unfortunately, this time, his actions have consequences, and Ensign Hoshi Sato pays the ultimate price. Archer lets a dangerous infiltrator on board, and no one can resist her wiles, except for Malcom Reed. He cannot be seduced by anyone, though he'd sleep with a photon torpedo in a heartbeat. We also learn fun things about Mandy's thesis committee.

And Malcolm Reed's face, when he gets to destroy a decoy buoy, is the picker-upper. But that's pretty much the highlight. Otherwise, it is your tired old "T'Pol wears less things, Archer gets kidnapped" story. Dumb episode to start 2021 with, but we have fun roasting it.

The NX-01 has a fun first contact which turns into one of the best, and also most emotionally devastating, episodes of the show so far.

Some surprise guests call in to our show, taking it in a bold new direction which we don't intend to make a recurring thing. On the TV show, Archer pilots an alien vessel, pretends to be a smuggler, and gets arrested for smuggling, but maybe not in the order you might expect! Also, Trip discovers the anti-Malcolm: a person who is cheerful in rough situations, and who talks about his past literally all the time. Unsurprisingly, this person is not to Trip's liking.

This may be the most divisive episode in the series, and that's probably because it is really two episodes (about Archer's feelings towards a dog and a girl, respectively) fused together in an unethical alchemy experiment to produce a freakish chimera of an episode.

Our eighteenth episode features some familiar faces... and lobes! Half our crew does some quality slapstick while the other half does some quality sleeping, and the goodness of Porthos's ears is finally recognized.

In our seventeenth episode, we probably should have read you poetry. Instead, Josh reads a giant run-on sentence from the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956. It was still more interesting than the episode of Enterprise.

Episode 16. A nice, cozy recording during a rainstorm, in which we discuss a nice, cozy episode about friendship and cross-cultural understanding and...um...other stuff. And Vulcans who would dare to eat pizza.

We just watched the fifteenth episode of Enterprise. At least it wasn't a clip show.

In our 14th episode, we wrongly assume that the UPN trailer would focus on the close encounter between Archer's face and T'Pol's bosom. The Enterprise crew explore a world which oddly has a 100% kidnapping rate, and everyone takes turns being a better captain than Archer. Also the name of Jeffrey Combs's character is Shran.

Don't let the episode title get you too excited. This podcast is about the thirteenth episode of Enterprise, in which Archer and crew find gummy worms, a bad smell, and an odd fetish for sitting in the decontamination chamber.

Our twelfth episode has the most guests, the most dogs, the most drama around the Kirk Award, and the most minutes of podcast (from any of our episodes so far)! We are joined by our friend Wren from (in addition to real life) the podcast Defrag.
You can find Defrag on Anchor, or whatever other podcast service you like. Here's a good episode to start with:

In our eleventh episode, plot A involves mysterious aliens, dangerous weapons, and a race against time. Plot B involves baking a birthday cake. Which do you think we are more interested in?

Archer catches up with an old foe who constantly calls him "John" in this, a good episode! Also, Josh gets excited about recognizing a voice, and Mandy gets excited about future B-movies.

Nine episodes in, we finally get the Travis Mayweather Episode! It definitely disappoints. We're still not a Voyager podcast.

The Enterprise crew still don't need no stinkin' plans, and Mandy still can't say "Connor Trinneer." Also, a tutorial on how to Kirk Punch! We fully act it out, though you need to tell all your friends to subscribe if you want to see it. Is that how podcasts work?

In episode 7, we learn about the Irish primary school system. Also Star Trek acknowledges the toilet, and we consider the symbolism behind pecan pie.

In episode 6, Trip and T'Pol get great one-liners. Archer gets punched. A lot. Also, one of the Andorians says "I'm going to enjoy having you. As a prisoner." Is that supposed to be sexy? Intimidating? Indicative of constipation? We honestly don't know.

In our fourth episode, Trip Tucker finally becomes distinguishable from Malcolm Reed, Brannon Braga gives us all a precious gift, and Star Trek finally gets a shower scene. Also, we have new intro and outro music!

The crew tell ghost stories around a space campfire and Porthos makes weewee on a space tree. That's the good part of the episode.
