Katie and Markeia join us for a discussion of Starfleet “Brats” - the children of active officers - focusing on Wesley Crusher, Jake Sisko, and Naomi Wildman.  Why do they all have single parents?  How do they cope in dangerous situations?  Do they feel pressure to follow in their parent’s footsteps?

Tuvok takes Andi, Grace, and guest Claire for a little jog around Voyager to talk about the episode “Learning Curve.” What would better accommodation for struggling crew members look like?

Three podcast thralls have been selected to look back on “The Gamesters of Triskelion” - an iconic TOS episode with a lot of problematic elements when analyzed with a modern lens.  We discuss the episode, how interpretations change over time, and whether core messages still hold up.  And as always, we’ll watch the lights in the sky.

 Content Warning:  Discussions of violence, slavery, sexual assault, and transphobia.
