Happy 60th Anniversary, Star Trek. Join Kelvin, Christos and Amy as we celebrate by taking it all right back to where it began.  We review the first aired episode, The Man Trap, from September 8 1966.  Are creatures addicted to salt and are men in the 1960s addicted to sex?  We also take time to reflect on why we are addicted to Star Trek and chat over the most recent episodes of Strange New Worlds.

Kelvin and Ben ponder all things immigration in this episode of All Good Things.  We compare and contrast the current UK/USA approaches to legal and illegal migration, compared with the events facing the Bajorans and the Skreeans in this episode of DS9.  Were the Bajorans right to say no, and were the Skrreea being too picky in their search for Kentanna?

This week on All Good Things, we open the first installment of our new Personnel File series with a deep dive into Dr. Beverly Crusher. From her years as chief medical officer aboard the Enterprise to her appearances in Star Trek: Prodigy and her dramatic return in Star Trek: Picard Season 3, we explore Beverly’s evolution as a doctor, mother, officer, and leader. We discuss her complicated relationship with Jean-Luc Picard, how well—or poorly—the TNG series and films served her character, and whether Picard finally allowed Beverly to fulfill her potential. We also share our favorite Beverly Crusher moments and consider the stories the franchise never gave her. What is your favorite Beverly Crusher moment? Let us know—and tell us whose Personnel File we should open next. #StarTrek #BeverlyCrusher #GatesMcFadden #StarTrekTNG #StarTrekPicard #StarTrekProdigy #AllGoodThings Join our listeners group: The BQN Collective on Facebook Join our Discord server: https://discord.gg/wqJt68vnxg The Network: @BQNpodcasts (IG/Bluesky) The Show: @AllGoodPod (Bluesky) Amy: @amynelson522 (IG/Discord) Christos: @whatstheteabev (IG/Bluesky/Discord) Kelvin: @KelvinsTimeline (IG/X/Discord) Ben: @benboldlygoes (IG) BQN Podcasts are made possible by the generous contributions of listeners like you.

Kelvin, Amy and Christos review TNG Unnatural Selection, in Part 8 of our Genetic Engineering series. We consider the convenient absence of reference to the generic engineering ban in the Federation, Pulaski’s relationships with the crew and we even zhuzh the episode to see if Beverly Crusher would’ve handled matters differently, had she been around.

It’s Pride Month and Kelvin, Christos and Ben take a moment to consider the last 12 months in Star Trek from the LGBTQ+ perspective.  How have the queer community been represented within the franchise, what’s been the reactions and how do we feel about the diversity and representation within Star Trek right now.

To conclude our season of Borg-centric episodes, Kelvin, Christos and Ben discuss Regeneration from the second season of Enterprise.  The episode that supposedly made the Borg scary once again.  Was the episode a fitting nod to Star Trek: First Contact, or a desperate ratings grab from a seemingly failing part of the franchise?  Listen to find out, and remember, resistance is futile.

Kelvin and guest host Ben embark upon a new series “to be continued” which explores the various two-part episodes of Star Trek.  Continuing our focus on the Borg, we delve into Voyager’s third into fourth season cliffhanger, Scorpion, parts 1 & 2. We explore the themes in each episode, from the introduction of Species 8472 and Seven of Nine, Janeway and Chakotay’s command conflict, to the setup of potentially losing the entire crew as episode one concludes - will Voyager survive Species 8472’s devastating attack?

AGT 215: The Evolution of a Species Pt 4: The Borg (Part 2) On this episode of All Good Things: A Star Trek Universe Podcast, Christos, Amy, and Kelvin continue their deep dive into the evolution of the Borg with The Evolution of a Species, Part 4: The Borg Part 2. After exploring the Borg’s terrifying rise throughout The Next Generation and First Contact in AGT 205, the crew now examines how Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Picard transformed the Collective from an unstoppable force of nature into something far more complicated—and tragic. The discussion explores Voyager’s deconstruction of the Borg through landmark episodes like “Scorpion,” “Dark Frontier,” “Drone,” “Unimatrix Zero,” and “Endgame,” while analyzing Seven of Nine’s journey as perhaps the franchise’s greatest exploration of recovery, identity, and reclamation after assimilation. The conversation then shifts into Star Trek: Picard, where the Borg are reframed not simply as villains, but as the remnants of a fallen empire struggling with trauma, failure, and the collapse of their own idea of perfection. From the Borg Reclamation Project to the haunting final confrontation of Season 3, the crew debates whether the Borg are still monsters… or victims of their own ideology. Topics include: • Did Voyager overuse the Borg? • Lore expansion vs diminishing menace • Seven of Nine as the Borg’s greatest legacy • The Borg as metaphor for technological overreach • Can the Borg exist without domination? • Is the Collective evolving… or going extinct?
