This week, Alice and Skyler are back to discuss DS9 season five, episode thirteen, "For the Uniform." Topics include getting back to the warm bath of a so-so episode, what you're allowed to bring into a Best Buy, whether or not Skyler's too cagey about the people he knows and the life he leads, Alice being wrong about which house was the Mary Tyler Moore house, Scott Pelley absolutely going off on current CBS, what, exactly, the Maquis are so mad about, and much, much more! Listen!!!

Also, sincere apologies—Skyler's track developed an annoying buzzing due to a mic connection over the course of the episode. It's listenable, but? Not ideal!! Our mistake!!
