Warped episodes

  • Episode 110 - The Naked Now
    No legal argument or political debate in the history of mankind has been as contentious or impassioned as this week's game of FMK, especially since all women seem a little like Betazoids to Philippe. It's true, guys with C-Section scars can be a bit off-putting, but so can babyface Frakes. Erin is ushered in to the modern age of vulgar stuff on the internet. Dr. Crusher knows better, but when you need that shiny head, you just gotta have it. Riker shakes off the effects of reduced inhibitions, Kirk-style, based on his extensive experience with the sensation. Shawn has his finger on the button and is ready to check out, but we remind him that his duty to Warped supersedes his need to escape the relatively minor discomforts of pandemic isolation.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 10
    An epic finale deserves an epic recap. And so Matt, Shawn, and Minh hitch up their Moscow Mules one last time to go even deeper Inside Picard than any one has dared go before. We send affirmations to our audience that all their various opinions are completely valid and we just hope that you and your loved ones are able to stay safe and be well in these trying times. Minh has some delicious beverages and his exceptional ability to visualize the show based on inebriated ramblings, and he's ready for a tale of synthetic love. Matt signs off on his scene-by-scene report card so the show will have time to reflect and grow over the break. Jake drops some new jingles, because everyone loves Elnor. Stay tuned to the end to hear when the cry moments come fast and loose for Shawn, how Minh makes the show about something real, and where Matt gives us the Picard Pros and Cons that we all know in our hearts to be true.

  • Episode 109 - Encounter at Farpoint - Part 2
    The Warped crew returns for the exciting two-part kickoff to Star Trek: The Next Generation. We're relieved to find out that Erin is sufficiently entertained by this new iteration of the sci-fi saga and has no immediate plans to leave the show. Plus, as a bonus, she gives us a review of the latest series of Forensic Files. LeVar Burton does what he does best by making a new friend and winning over our hearts. We pour one out in memory of Ike, and also our respect for Minh's calendar awareness.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 9
    In the penultimate episode of Inside Picard's first season, we wax lexicographical and think back on our own time in Arcadia. Matt has some very hot takes when it comes to the writing for this episode, so take appropriate burn precautions. People's feelings towards Jean-Luc turn from undisguised hatred to outright betrayal, and we respond in kind. Our recap may not be as good as some episodes of Inside Picard, because we're clearly putting in a lot of work to setup the season finale.

  • Episode 108 - Encounter at Farpoint - Part 1

    The Warped crew emerges from FTL and finally arrives at the good stuff. Witness our very first commentary of Star Trek: The Next Generation. We recall the days of being young and innocent, when we thought The Animated Series was going to be our deliverance. Ah, the halcyon days of yesteryear. While building a bridge between generations, we manage to prove our value as Trek lore educators.


    Who mourns for werewoof? Probably all the poor cables that got ripped out in the greatest catastrophe to ever befall Warped Studios! Oh yeah, and Erin who tripped over said cables. She's fine, though. Probably. I don't know; I have a lot on my plate right now. I mean... our poor cables! Pray for them!


    And so begins our endless love affair with Patrick Stewart's head shape.


    P.S. Minh has a special reward on offer for anybody leaving a review of the show.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 8

    Amid pandemic fears and social distancing, the Warped crew's very own Unholy Triumvirate once again convene to recap the latest episode of Star Trek: Picard. The episode is "Broken Pieces" and it, being a truly excellent piece of streaming television, prompts us to navigate the murky waters of our collective podcasting psyche. In a moment of clarity, a shimmering fragment of eternity is glimpsed from the corner of the mind's eye. All is made clear as the realities of truth, love, and mortality bring us closer together, binding us to a common cause of purpose and reason.


    Then we refresh our beverages and blather on for over 100 minutes about shirtless Elnor, BJ's, and F-Bombs. So buckle up, Buttercup. It's going to be a bumpy transwarp drive.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 7
    It's two guys, a girl, and pizza in space! And we would watch that for as long as the good people in the TV are willing to show it to us. Despite all our cumulative Trek knowledge, we still must ask the question, "Can a Romulan do a mind meld-type thingy?" Elnor confirms his status as future death Roomba. The cry count goes way up on this one, and our discussion is so in-depth that we hit upon the secret message of the entire show.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 6
    Do androids dream of positronic sheep? This week on Inside Picard we delve into Soji's created memories, and create a few memories of our own. Shawn breaks form and jumps around almost as much as the show's flashback narrative structure. Matt out-cries everyone on the crew, breaking Shawn's winning streak. This week's Digression Corner gives us a peak at an impossible burger and an unrelated parasite. Warning: the crew gets a bit critical of some of the writing decisions made on this episode. Let the sensitive be warned!

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 5

    Superstar podcaster Matt is guesting on so many shows, he isn't sure which show he's on anymore. Just remember that we knew him when.

    The crew makes preparations to move into a convention hall bathroom. Jake swings by with a rock-solid cosplay idea. The old Bruce Maddox is doing just fine, so don't worry. The new Bruce Maddox on the other hand? Totally different story.


    Minh continues his saga of obscure references, but he may just be a Lying Cat. Overall, we rate this episode a 5 of 9... 7 of 9 with phasers. We'll catch up with you again next week, our Mom AI is telling us we have to get ready for bed.

  • Inside Picard - Season 1, Episode 4
    Jonathan Frakes directs an episode of Picard, and everyone likes that. Space elves reach a new level of sexy with the Orlando Bloom of the Romulan set. Warrior nuns show how to give everyone the business and pass it off as an act of piety. We have some irreconcilable differences with the inconsistent representation of the economy of the future. Minh gives us some room for creative expression, and Matt gives us the results of the "Data's smell" Twitter poll.
