Bespoke Squeegee (Q&A with Ben & Adam)
2026/04/13
When we’ve reached the end of an era and only three packages remain, their contribution to the show’s well-documented problems makes it clear it’s time to turn off auto-renew. But after a bunch of FoD questions elicit some new ideas for the show, it seems we’re ready for 10 more years of indigestion and loose stool. Which type of museum would Ben and Adam open? What do wormhole aliens not care about at all? Who does Starfleet need to get into a uniform? It’s the episode that paints a Godfather-like scene.

Serious Funny Business (Greatest Gen 10 Interview with Cyrus Farivar)
2026/04/06

But after 10 years of growth and change, Star Trek is a place still stands and the overarching goal remains the same. How is this interregnum like a family Mexican restaurant birthday song? What is Cyrus sorry-not-sorry for? Which employee hasn’t lost their fastball? It’s the episode that gives you thoughtful Ben and Adam.

He Had Some Good Ideas Also (ENT Series Wrap)
2026/03/30
When it’s time to wrap-up coverage of the series no one watched on TV, looking back at the show’s characters reveals an endearing crew and a capable cast. But after realizing that Enterprise might just be Star Trek Voyager with a bad captain, it raises questions like how are T’Pol and Seven the same and how are Phlox and Neelix different. Which character might as well like owls? How is an assignment on the NX-01 like working at Uxbridge-Shimoda? What is a TV show’s Vice President? It’s the episode that got some warm fuzzies.

2026/03/23
When Commander Riker is working his way through some deleted scenes of a TNG episode, he skips ahead to the good part on the holodeck where Shran shows up to ask for Captain Archer’s help. But after diverting the NX-01 to rescue Shran’s daughter, we lose a beloved character and Riker finally feels ready to defy Admiral Pressman’s orders. What do the FoDs deserve? Who is fair game on the holodeck? When does HIPAA not apply? It’s the episode that wants to talk Dr. Star Trek into a new drink.

When is marinara sauce like water? Who on the away team is in violation of a restraining order? It’s the episode that might possibly trigger celiac disease.

But after a Tholian warp signature leads them to a TOS-era Defiant, the Dustbuster club restores power just in time to see their ship get destroyed.

It’s the episode that definitely had crack out of frame.

2026/02/16
When the Entrepreneur encounters an Orion ship, its captain makes an offer that the crew can’t refuse. But after Archer figures out who’s really in charge, Tucker and T’Pol use their pheromonal immunity to save the ship. When is slavery like a bathroom? How is the EPS system like an ATM machine? Whose auction price can be compared to everything? It’s the very horny episode that’s red meat for a Star Trek teen.
