Stardate: Supplemental

Captain Lynne Lucero's first command is right up her alley. A science mission on a science ship! Which is, naturally, why she's utterly doomed. If there's anything that Star Trek makes absolutely clear, it's that small science ships like the USS Cabot are ripe for self-destruction due to one mad scientist or the other. In this case, that mad scientist is Lt. Edward Larkin. Will Lucero survive? All this, and the brothers pay tribute to Oz Tiltycat, who's moved on to Sto-vo-Kor. Qapla'!

It's the first-ever Stardate: Supplemental live show! The brothers talk about the Cardassian ship Trager, it's thirsty bondage-gear-wearing officers, and Gul Macet's unconventional moisture-control facial hair style. If that wasn't enough, it includes a Will Riker-themed quiz between Conrad and everyone else in the venue! Will the brothers survive their first live event? Will they repair the rift with Murphy's Apple Juice? Listen in and find out!

Captain Benjamin Maxwell is one of Starfleet's finest officers... except for the fact that he's lost his mind and has started attacking defenseless Cardassian cargo ships with his Nebula-class starship, the USS Phoenix. Why is the whole ship crew participating in these crimes? Probably because Benny bludgeoned his protesting first officer to death with the ship's dedication plaque and nobody else wanted to be next. Can Bobby and the USS Hood contain Maxwell's madness? Can Gul Macet's face contain his chin-stache? Can Conrad sleep through Oz the cat's midnight botherings? Tune in to find out!

Admiral Mendak is one heck of a smooth Romulan warmonger, making his counterpart Admiral 'T. Hawk' Tomalak seem like a frothing sociopath by comparison. And when the Devoras outwits the Enterprise, he can't help but relish the opportunity to rub it in. And in. And in. Will his and Selok's love reignite after a 17 year break? Will Longo and Robinson's marriage go off without a hitch? Will George Takei ever listen to our podcast? Tune in to find out!

As an Ambassador-class starship, the USS Zhukov was one of the darlings of Starfleet a generation ago. As such, this still potent lady should have some wicked cool mission profiles for Captain Gleason and his crew, right? Wrong. Now it's nothing more than an ambassador bus, just like the much older Excelsiors of the fleet. No wonder they got stuck with Barclay for years. Commander T'Ron, the most mustachio'd Vulcan in the fleet, won't let that be an excuse for discipline to slip. Also: Longo and Robinson are getting married?! Can Dr. Borik survive being the best man? Replicate a bow tie, it's a new pod!

The mining shuttle Nenebek is 80% cockpit and 120% unfit for shuttling Federation officers about in. But that doesn't stop so-called chief engineer Geordi LaForge from greenlighting the Enterprise's captain from getting on Captain Dirgo's rust bucket. Which literally crashes less than a minute later. Is Dirgo a low-rent Han Solo cosplayer? How does he always make the wrong choice? How will we all deal with saying goodbye the USS Hood's acting ensign and resident bad boy Jake Kurland on his final mission? Why did Kyle screw up his microphone selection? Brace yourselves, we're crashing into a new pod!

The IKS Vor'cha is one big bad ship, the jewel of the Klingon fleet. And it's spending most of its time hauling around K'mpec, the longest-serving and fattest chancellor in Klingon history. But now K'mpec is dying! Can Bobby handle the right of succession as smoothly as Picard would? Are K'Ehleyr and Kalas old high school besties? Doesn't the Klingon poet K'ontrell sound really familiar? Load up the newest pod on your tricorder for all of this and to hear about Kyle's home improvement envy.

Doctor Dalen Quaice, AKA discount Wilford Brimley in space, AKA space cowboy entering retirement, has had it with Starbase 133 after years of serving whiskey under the table in the infirmary. And why wouldn't he after a dead wife and too many broken bones repaired after constant chicanery from the Parrises Squares matches the local maintenance crew keep losing. Meanwhile, has life as a single dad rendered the USS Hood's Kevin Kurland insane? Would Conrad rather be interrogated by the Tal Shiar or Section 31? Pack a small, oddly shaped Federation suitcase. It's time for another pod!

The Q'Maire is among the top of the line when it comes to Talarian warships... which means when it comes to a slugging match with the Enterprise it's rockets and x-rays have no chance of accomplishing anything. But Captain Endar is ready to fight for his son, Jono, even if he is just another random blonde heartthrob from the 90's. Also, the Brothers Weems are fiending hard for nachcos. Like too hard. Like shredded targ and spicy pepper nacho hard. Melt that cheese and strap in, it's a new pod!
