The Best of Both Worlds, Part I! The episode that is widely considered the best season finale of any Star Trek show and firmly put TNG on the map in mainstream Americans' eyes, but does it stand up to scrutiny by the Newbie Star Trek panel?! Scott joins us once again as he guides our hips through the re-emergence of the Borg, potential cast replacements, a cliffhanger that shocked America, and Patrick Stewart's sexy half-Batsuit onesie!

Transfigurations! Is this episode a Jesus metaphor? Or is it an X-Men metaphor? Or, as Dan forgot to mention on the podcast and thus we're mentioning it here, a Digimon metaphor? We dunno, but at the very least it's a camel toe exhibition. Also, Geordi's arc is that he becomes a lady's man and then pretty much just stays that way. Wow! All's well that ends well!

Ménage à Troi! Surprisingly, the episode isn't about a three-way. Instead, it's about Deanna's mom being an overbearing jerk, Ferengis committing multiple acts of sexual assault, Wesley's white privilege, and Patrick Stewart revisiting his Shakespearean roots. Unless, that's actually what three-ways are really all about? We've never been in one, so we wouldn't know.

Sarek! Jasmin joins us for the official start of the Star Trek Cinematic Universe, where we get our first official crossover from the original series! Sarek's back! But not in pog form! Instead, he's a metaphor for old age and Alzheimer's! Oh no! Also, Jasmin wanted to point out that Sarek's failing mental state happened to parallel the mental decline of Gene Roddenberry around the time of airing, but she didn't get a chance to mention that in the actual discussion, so she's including it here now, yay!

The Most Toys! Ricardo thinks this episode is actually a better Data episode than Measure of a Man, and Dan thinks this episode is annoying because of the Collector trope. But at least the one thing we can all agree on is that this is the most punchable villain ever. Consensus!

Spoiler alert: there's a LOT of steamy imagery, both implied and just directly transcribed from what's in the episode. Also, we open some Star Trek trading card packs live! Whee~!

Tin Man! Picard, crew, and some annoying Betazoid jerk decide to find a big living alien spaceship that's named "Tin Man" for purely metaphorical reasons. It kinda looks like a big blunt, which is appropriate since we recorded this episode on 4/20. It also looks like a gigantic turd, I hope that's not a metaphor for the episode or something.

What happens when Patrick Stewart wants an episode that has lots of fighting and fornicating? An Indiana Jones-esque weird time travel plot on a sexy pleasure/treasure planet, that's what!

Our discussion meanders more than usual as we try our best to discuss the movie, share some fan convention stories, and also discuss the very meaning of art itself! Wow! Happy April Fools Day!

What will happen when we combine a "long-lost brother" script with a "court trial to preserve family honor" script into one crazy Klingon politics-driven episode? Maybe not exactly everything we hoped it could be!

I dunno, but it's got some deep questions about gender identity, parenting new life, sentience, the unbearable burden of feelings, and the crushing existential dread of being alive, all of which go completely unanswered! Also, Jonathan Frakes directed this one, wow!

Just to remind everyone: Tasha Yar is Ricardo's favorite character. So what does he think now that he's finally seen the episode?

Yesterday's Enterprise! Welcome to our first ever commentary track! We thought this would be a special one since Ricardo's favorite character is Tasha Yar, and we all know what that means! Watch the episode along with us as Ricardo reacts to Yesterday's Enterprise for the first time!
TECHNICAL NOTE: This commentary track only syncs up with the Blu-ray and Paramount+ versions of TNG. The Netflix version shortens the amount of black screen between commercial breaks, which leads to a pretty significant de-sync.

Will Star Trek be able to handle this delicate topic tastefully and meaningfully? The answer to that question is no. Did George Lucas steal this title for yet another prequel concept? The answer to that question is maybe?

The Survivors! Picard tries to figure out why everyone on this planet is dead except for two random boomers. In the meantime, Riker gets snared on a trap and smacks his head on a pole, and Deanna has non-stop music box tinnitus. Will they ever solve this mystery? Only if we go up and atom. You know the rules, and so do I. And if all else fails, there's always the Holodeck. F***.

Shades of Gray! Sara returns just in time for the worst episode of the season! Potentially the worst of the whole series? What better way to cap off a season than a friggin' clip show! Also, there was so little to discuss for this episode that we also made it into a season recap episode as well! Two podcasts for the price of one! Which is more than Riker's fever dreams can offer us! Comes along for the really cheap, budget-saving ride!
