Listen to the Prophets: A Star Trek Deep Space Nine Podcast – Two True Freaks

Yes, once again Star Trek does courtroom drama in the Deep Space Nine episode, “Dax”. Many years ago, Kurson Dax was with a Klaesron general who was assassinated, and he was the prime suspect. But now Dax is being sought out to face justice, but the symbiote is in a new host, Jadzia. Can the crimes of the past host pass to the current, or did Dax just get away with the ultimate con? Paul Spataro, Andrew Leyland, and Shawn Engel discuss this subject, your e-mails, and much more on today’s episode…of LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS.

In this latest episode of LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS, Paul, Andy, and Shawn take a look at an attempt to insert a crossover character into the Deep Space Nine show, as the omnipotent being Q arrives at the station to cause mayhem and menace. And get punched in his smug face. But is Q really the cause of all the anomalies plaguing the station, or is it tied to his travelling companion and former Captain Picard snuggle bunny Vash? There’s a mystery afoot, but is it all that mysterious…or entertaining at all, for that matter? Is John de Lancie a welcome addition to the DS9 crew, or does his form of meddling not fit in with the direction of the show? All of these questions and more will be answered when you download the show and take some time out…to LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS.

Tired of the election coverage here in the United States? Well, why not settle down with a non-controversial episode of Listen to the Prophets? Well, if you take out the argument over Klingon boob windows, it’s non-controversial. Luckily most of the episode is dedicated to coverage of the first season episode “Captive Pursuit” which has Chief O’Brien meeting up with a fugitive alien from the Gamma Quadrant (who, coincidentally does NOT try and kill anyone with a forklift) who is being hunted by some proto-Jem’Hadar. We talk about Sisko’s lax command style, O’Brien’s flagrant disregard of the chain of command, and how one interprets the Prime Directive in the frontiers of space. All of this, plus feedback from you wonderful listeners can be heard when you download the show and get ready…to Listen to the Prophets.

Welcome to episode #4 of Pants at Somewhere Gravity: A Flat Nostril Lunch…I mean, Listen to the Prophets: A Deep Space Nine Podcast. Sorry, I must have been suffering from aphasia, much like the crew of DS9 were on this episode entitled “Babel”. After trying to fix all the problems on the station, Chief O’Brien decides to focus on fixing the food replicators so Sisko will get off his @$$ about how his coffee tastes. Unfortunately, the Chief’s repairs activate a hidden device that puts a virus in the food which causes those who eat from it to start talking in gibberish (much like Shawn when he hasn’t had enough sleep), and it’s up to Major Kira and a Bajoran doctor named after a cartoon chihuahua to find the cure. Plus Paul, Andy, and Shawn discuss how the concerns over a viral outbreak mirror what is happening in the U.S.A. right now. How prescient is that? Well you’ll just have to find out when you download the show and take some time…to Listen to the Prophets.

Yes, essentially that’s all we need to say to clue you in on this episode of Listen to the Prophets: A Star Trek Deep Space Nine Podcast. The greatest supporting character in the show’s history makes his debut in the first season episode “Past Prologue”, where Kira has to choose between her loyalty to Bajor and her former comrades and her commitment to work with Starfleet and Sisko. Plus cameos from Lursa and B’etor and their Klingon cleavage, Doctor Bashir being incredibly dense, and space terrorrism. But primarily, GARAK!!! So what are you waiting for? Download the show and prepare to hear Andy, Paul, and Shawn take some time…to Listen to the Prophets.

We’re doing the job so Scott Gardner doesn’t have to! Yes, it’s time to travel back to space station Deep Space Nine with hosts Andrew Leyland, Paul Spataro, and Shawn Engel as they take a look at the second…or third (we’re not really certain, but this is the order Netflix had them in, so we’re going with that) episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine…“A Man Alone”. Constable Odo has a run in with an old foe who ends up getting murdered during a holodeck massage session (talk about an UN-happy ending) and the only suspect is the shapeshifter himself. So it’s up to Kira, Dax, and Dr. Bashir to grow a brand new life from some discarded SCIENCE in order to keep an unruly mob from carrying out some frontier justice on our resident changeling. Plus we discuss the ethics of growing a clone for…recreational purposes. You’ll hear all of that and more as soon as you download the show and…Listen to the Prophets.

Do you think that STAR TREK DEEP SPACE NINE is the red-headed step-child in the Star Trek franchise? Do you think that Commander Sisko ‘ain’t all that as a Captain? And what’s the point of a Star Trek show, if they don’t go anywhere, right? I mean it’s right there in the title! Well, Shawn Engel, Paul Spataro and Andrew Leyland have banded together across time frames to calmly and rationally explain why they don’t agree with any of these points and that the show most maligned in fandom may actually be it’s fair haired child. In this inaugural runabout, our three Klingon Warriors watch the double length series premier, EMISSARY. Join us, through the wormhole for the first ever episode of LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS.

There’s a new space sherrif in town, and his name is Benjamin Sisko. There’s also a new podcast on the Two True Freaks Network, and its name is Listen to the Prophets. Here’s the first trailer for it. Expect new episodes coming soon!
