Notes coming soon...

Bob and Matt discuss the newest Star Trek releases.

Race thru Dark Places S2E7(25 Jan 95) vs. Defiant S3E9 (21 Nov 94)-A couple of cool alternative history novels that incorporate modern technology in Underground Railroad narratives are Colson Whitehead Underground Railroad (2016) & Ishmael Reed Flight to Canada (1976). Bob read the Whitehead after our recording & digs it. He hasn’t read the Reed yet but really digs his Yellow Back Radio Broke-Down (1969) & Mumbo Jumbo (1977)-The group telepathy scene does seem to anticipate JMS’s concerns in Sense8 (2015-8)-Bob’s ranking of Riker guest spots: Voyager, Lower Decks, Deep Space 9, Picard, & Enterprise

Spider in the Web S2E6 (7 Dec 94) vs. Meridian S3E8 (14 Nov 94)-Bob hasn’t watched much of either Parks & Rec or Brooklyn 9-9-Bob strongly recommends the AMC show Lodge 49-The voices of Catwoman, Mr. Freeze, Ra’s al Ghul, & the Judge from Batman: The Animated Series all show up on B5, & the voice of Riddler shows up on DS9.-Edgar Rice Burroughs’s John Carter stars in the first planetary romance novel series-David K. Johnson has written a good history of the Lavender Scare-Jessica Walters played Lucille Bluth on Arrested Development-The review of Ready Player 1 in ep 199 of Chapo Trap House is the only RP1 content you need-Matt recommends the Neal Stephenson novel Snow Crash -James Shigeta plays a Japanese-American detective in the Sam Fuller noir Crimson Kimono & a Vietnamese president in seaQuest DSV -Twin Peaks is one example of US media paranoia of Asian businesspeople in the 80s & 90s

Long Dark S2E5 (30 Nov 94) vs. Civil Defense S3E7 (7 Nov 94)-Dwight Schultz also played Howling Mad in A-Team & Barclay in TNG-Jerry Doyle & Dwight Schultz both hosted rightwing radio shows, Schultz sometimes guesthosted for Doyle & Michael Savage, & Doyle’s show took Savage’s show’s slot. For the funniest account of Savage & his son, see ep 249 of the amazing podcast Grubstakers-Bob hates on the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy franchise
