Podcast 125: Retrogray


J.R. was tickled pink by the retro-futuristic fun of "Bride of Chaotica!" and the episodes in general were probably better than last time, but viewing these suckers makes it easy to see why Voyager really is the detritus of Star Trek. Boxing is never good on TV, but space boxing? Well, that tends to be even worse, isn't it? Hey, at least some more Starfleet types came along, but did they erase, or add to the Voyager complement of dullness? Hey, the guy who plays Max also plays the man in black ("Esau") in Lost. Fancy that!

Podcast 124: Dick Moves


Technically, these Voyager episodes are supposed to be the "good" ones, but we have a much funner time hearing about all the crazy episodes we're not watching. Andy Dick happens. Also iceberg planets, time travel (of course, duh-doy) and of course musical theory. The doctor is golden though. Especially when he's reshaping hundreds of years of history and racial harmony.

Podcast breakdown:

0:00 -- nuqneH, Agricola, Utah trip, J.R. being a wuss, Paranormal Activity, scary movies, Pacific Rim, Robot Jox, Breaking Bad, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, How I Met Your Mother
34:20 -- Viewer mail (Twitter, Orange is the New Black, Superman vs. Batman)
43:47 -- "Message in a Bottle"
1.08:52 -- "Living Witness"
1.25:31 -- "Timeless"
