This week, Alice and Skyler are joined once again by the great Ben Rodgers (Star Trek: Lower Decks, the Actionboyz podcast) to discuss what everyone can hear, just how big a car Ben drives, giving up on English, the joys of recognizing that somebody looks like somebody else regardless of whether or not the resemblance may be rude to share with them, which member of Boygenius Skyler saw perform recently, what Boygenius is, and much, much more. Behind the paywall, they get into DS9 season four, episode seven, "Starship Down." Topics include R. Crumb, the best scary tech to build a horror movie around, the iHome, whether or not Deep Space Nine will ever figure out what to do with Worf now that he's a part of the crew, who's really responsible for the death of the inventor of the Segway, Bashir being gross, Kira being weird about Sisko yet again, being a Crom-head, and more. Listen!!
