2022-06-24 02:21:37 +0000 UTC View PostT'Pring's back! But did she ever leave? And things heat up even more between Chapock! Spopel? Or do they? Andy debates while Matt tolerates. Plus, a new well-written, well-performed character goes off the rails - or lands the plane safely? Mangle your own mixed metaphors! P.S. Pike does a pirate voice in a weird subplot.

2022-06-16 21:38:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs off-handedly promised! Matt digs his paw into the hailbag as the boys discuss both your and their takes on this season's journey of Picard, Raffi, Rios, and the rest of the gang! We also look forward to hopes/fears re: next season and Andy puts on his "Scoop" fedora and tries to dig for intel for the crew!

Anders Peterson, who wrote/orchestrated the emotional music that closed out our "All Good Things..." TNG finale episode thought you folks might like access to a copy for your own listening pleasure. Thanks Lt. Peterson, and all of our crew continuing to make sounds, comics, organize the Facegroup, and support at all levels! We truly value each one of you.

It's classic, awesome submarine battle Trek! Or is it just tropey, stale submarine battle Trek? Matt and Andy slug it out, Arena style! Also featured - the boys discuss their love of the SNW Enterprise, and a huge fan of Uhura and Hemmer is spotted on the bridge.

There's a new New Trek in the quadrant, and buckle up folks...Matt and Andy actually liiikke it!!!! Sure, we still debate Pike's beard and Pike-burns, Ortegas's smirk, and do Vulcans really get down like that? By by and large, so far, the sultans of snipe are IN on this one!
NOTE: We both had the opinion that since this was the actually rare new Trek TNC we were less acidic about, and because this is a bye week for TNG in preparation for the May 23rd finale, we should...
2022-05-06 23:15:12 +0000 UTC View PostThey did it, folks! They wrapped up season 2 of Picard in a neat little...facecloak?

May the 4th, 2022 - 7PM PACIFIC STANDARD TIME - TNC LIVESTREAM Q & A - to celebrate this random day in our Star Trek calendar, Matt and Andy blather and engage with the President's Circle for a short Q & A!

Picard and his buddies reenact Skyfall with the Borg Queen and some Borg mercs! The hailbag is chock full as always, with some interesting discussions throughout. Or discussions, at least, you can't dispute that.

So skip if you want - you'll be skipping a hailbag chock full of people hate-watching season 2, loving season 2, some news about our plans for our final TNG episode, and a huge digression by Matt and Andy into the state of serialized, "mystery box" TV.

Frank Sinatra...come on! You'd think with such a direct TNC reference, Matt and Andy would dig this episode more, but the "where is this going? why isn't more happening?" vibes continue in episode 5. Matt asks if Q is up to no good or his usual seems-like-he's-up-to-no-good-but-is-actually-benevolent thing, Admiral Magoo continues to ask as many questions as we do, and Jurati gets back to what she does best....murdering!
