    The Barclay Center w/ Danny Solomon
    Apr 24 2025
    This week, Alice and Skyler are detouring from DS9 with a BLOCKBUSTER of an episode, free for all to enjoy. That's right, they're taking a trip to the Barlcay Center—the REGINALD Barclay Center, The Next Generation's punching-bag engineer character, and they're joined once again by the great Danny Solomon to do so. Together, they discuss the TNG crew's weird disdain for a guy who's just trying to fit in, O'Brien coming from a long line of transporter engineers, the ethics of interrupting someone's Holodeck session, the transporter creating a Fly situation, the horror of receiving an Edible Arrangement from Picard, and much, much more.

    S4E03 – The Visitor – Teaser
    Apr 17 2025
    This week, Alice and Skyler shout out their first "Fashion Intruder"-level Patreon subscriber WITH reverb before diving into Redditors' posting histories, not cutting something in post, getting hair done, interesting hair developments across the DS9 cast this season thus far, the size of red, molecule-wise, what the hell's going on with Skyler's apartment hunt since last week (which was recorded only moments before this week's episode), and more. Behind the paywall, they get into DS9 season four, episode three, "The Visitor," which... absolutely rocks. Topics include the great, recently departed Tony Todd, finding where your heroes live and paying them an uninvited visit, Sisko's latest sing-song-y line delivery, some parallels between the arming of the station and The Expanse (around 45 minutes in, be warned, should you want to know nothing about... those parallels), the wonders of Interstellar, and?
