A Fond TTFN from Trek in the Valley (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As you may have noticed, there wasn’t a new episode of the podcast last week and there isn’t this week either. Al has officially, and on good terms, left the show because he has other positive stuff to focus on! I, Adam, the other A name on the pod, am taking this as a sign to work on other projects...such as my podcast Movies Over My Hammy where we cover movies and their food tie-in menu items. Stay subscribed to this feed because if and when I bring Trek in the Valley back, I want ya’ll to be
S3 EP 8: "The Price" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
”It’s a dry well. It’s worthless.” Woooah, folks! Here we have a classic diplomacy episode of TNG with ”The Price.” Picard finds himself hosting negotiations between a planet who found a stable worm hole, and the grimy space capitalists that want to buy access to it - plus the Federation. Also, Lloyd Braun from Seinfeld uses his secret Betazoid powers to control the negotiations and possibly...Troi’s heart? Includes some absolutely disgusting massage stuff. Adam and Al get into it on this week’s

I think that’s what this episode was about. Geordi met a Romulan in a lightening cave and there was a Neutral Zone standoff between Picard and a Romulan captain. The fate of the cease fire was in jeopardy, I tell you! Anyway, we have a great time talking about it. Check it out. If you dare! It actually isn’y for

"I was never a boy." Trek in the Vallites! We've got a Geordi coming in hot. In Star Trek: The Next Generation, S3 EP6, "Booby Trap" at first it seems like maybe Geordi is an incel, but it turns out he just can't relax around a lady unless she is the holographic personification of an engineer that is helping him solve a problem before everyone on the ship dies of radiation poisoning. Also, Worf has a couple good lines. We talk about it all and also more! Like the podcast and throw us a review! O
S3 EP 5: "The Bonding" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
”I’ve always believed that having children on a starship is a very questionable policy. Serving on a starship means accepting certain risks, certain dangers. Did Jeremy Aster make that choice?” This week Adam and Al dig into an emotional and philosophical episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, with S3 EP 4, ”The Bonding.” In this episode, pretty much every single person feels responsible for some kind of death in some way. The various members of the crew navigate these feelings while dealing
