PAT TREK

Brian Sebby returns to the show to discuss Coming of Age, a Wesley-centric episode that surprisingly holds up. This week, the Pats discuss a shadowy conspiracy threatening the Federation, and rigorous Academy exams that look a lot like hazing.

Pat W. literally phones in this episode of Pat Trek from vacation in Omaha to discuss Home Soil. In this episode, the Enterprise crew must solve a murder on a terraform base, and suffer the insults of a sentient talking rock.

Peaches and Hot Sauce contributor Zack Mast sits down with Pat and Pat to discuss When the Bough Breaks, an uncharacteristically good Season 1 episode, until it takes a bizarre turn in the third act.

This week, the Pats discuss Too Short a Season, an episode where a diseased Muppet must help Picard negotiate a hostage situation on an alien planet, raising big questions about the Prime Directive.

The Enterprise takes a break from deep space exploration to get upgrades from an alien race of binary cybernetic creatures. Alcohollywood's Clint Worthington sits down with the Pats to talk about Bynars, Starfleet, and Riker's questionable use of the Holodeck.

This week, the Pats sit down with Kathryn Fallucco to discuss Angel One, a mysterious planet where the Enterprise crew must negotiate with a female-dominated oligarchy, rescue a rogue band of Men's Rights Activists, and control Riker's libido.

This week, the Pats dig further in to the first season to discuss Data and his twin brother in Datalore. Where did Data come from? Why does he talk like that? Why was he built to resemble character actor Brent Spiner? Some of these questions will be answered, and more on this episode of Pat Trek.

Finally, the Holodeck gets used for something other than a place for Riker to mope about girl problems, as Picard takes a virtual-reality vacation to live the life of a 1940s private eye. Brian Holden of Starkid joins Pat and Pat to discuss his Star Trek fandom and whether or not the Holodeck is actually an elaborate execution chamber.

Lindsay Baish joins Pat and Pat to talk about Haven, an episode supposedly set in the 24th century, but is clearly inspired by the 1980s. Deanna Troi deals with a surprise arranged marriage, big-haired aliens hail the Enterprise, and Armin Shimerman makes another Star Trek appearance as a talking silver box that poops out jewels.

Stephen Kropa joins Pat and Pat to discuss the return of Star Trek's most famous transdimensional being in Hide and Q. Meanwhile, Riker is given godlike powers, which he surprisingly does not use for sex.
