The Medkit Device Is a Chode (VOY S6E22) Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

When BLT and Ensign Kim crash on a planet full of theatre nerds, their life becomes art, layered with nesting-doll suspense about the ending. But when Voyager locates the Delta Flyer on the day of the big play, BLT leaves the bronze age in peace with an especially dramatic beam out. What makes coleslaw a meal? Is there a St. Louis twist on ambrosia salad? Why aren’t there more survival stories involving ropes? It’s the episode that has tragedy, time, and stamps!

That’s My Canadian Car (VOY S6E21) Oct 09, 2023

Show notes

When a band of celebrity impersonators start tarnishing the Federation’s good name, Captain Janeway tries to patch things up while BLT hunts down gremlins on the ship. But when it turns out the same person is responsible for both problems, beaming her into Voyager’s brig lets the crew turn the con on the con artists. How strong is the antiperspirant placebo effect? Does the Cal Hudson scale hold up to a giant combadge? What was LeVar’s inspiration for really bad uniforms? It’s the episode that never buys anything from the porch!

Dark Matter Deer Blood (VOY S6E20) Oct 02, 2023

Show notes

When Captain Janeway takes an interest in the ship’s biggest losers, a dangerous away mission is her prescription for bringing them back into the fold. But when the Delta Flyer gets away from her and the mission turns into a disaster, letting the dark matter aliens remain a mystery is preferable to letting a jerk end up the hero. What will you never get from a hotel room? Who is the Leah Brahms of the Delta Flyer? How long does the Janeway have to wait for her soup? It’s the episode that would take a no-broken-glass time loop any day of the week!

A Nike Shoebox Full of Pathogen (VOY S6E19) Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

When the Voyager crew tracks down Icheb’s parents, Seven’s own trauma makes her hesitant to trust them. But when the family reunion escalates from awkward to xenocidal, Captain Janeway changes her mind about needing to let him go. What is the job of adults at a science fair? Is there a fancier name for a sewer pipe? Why do the Borgs hate Yivel? It’s the episode that wants to get Seven a pair of Dr. Martens.

Rocking Kobali Bush (VOY S6E18) Sep 18, 2023

Show notes

When Ensign Kim’s old flame shows up on Voyager, her melting face doesn’t stop him from making a move. But when moody-as-hell middle school borgs overwhelm Seven of Nine, Chakotay suggests adapting her parenting style to a more spontaneous type of fun. Why is Jhet'leya’s loaf still warm? Who does Star Trek want you to fall in love with? When do borgs start growing tubules? It’s the episode that adds a dead chick to Harry Kim’s body count!

Bros Before Holos (VOY S6E17) Sep 11, 2023

Show notes

When the Fair Haven villagers lose their obliviousness algorithms, they start conspiring against the Voyager crew. But when Captain Janeway gives Michael Sullivan a glimpse of her world, they convince the townsfolk their relationships are worth saving. What’s the correct response to a calendar reminder? Did Killmannin only exist on TV? Which is the best variation of “we need to talk”? It’s the episode that misses the arch!

Ratchet Cube (VOY S6E16) Sep 04, 2023

Show notes

When the Delta Flyer gets captured by the li’lest Borg collective, Seven beams over to find neonatal drones holding the away team hostage. But when Ensign Kim starts throwing wooden shoes into the cube’s shield generator, the standoff over Voyager’s deflector pushes Captain Janeway toward a moral dilemma. What could be worse than a botched circumcision? Is Mezoti more Newt or more Samara? Who gives the keynote at SpaceyCon each year? It’s the episode with an avoidable case of pink eye!

Two Fighters, One Match (VOY S6E15) Aug 28, 2023

Show notes

When Seven and Tuvok use their shore leave for a busman’s holiday, no one understands why they aren’t interested in Tsunkatse. But when their brat gets blown up and they’re conscripted into the ring, Seven’s only choice is to fight for their lives on the USS UFC. How do you know who does bar the hardest? Can J.G. Hertzler refuse loaf? Where does Neelix do diplomacy? It’s the episode in conflict about brining all the things!

Kevin Lives! (VOY S6E14) Aug 21, 2023

Show notes

When a disheveled away team returns from a particularly grueling milk run, there’s no explanation for the nightmares and flashbacks that start plaguing the ship. But by the time they find the ancient memorial responsible, real memories of war have traumatized the crew. Would following protocol have avoided this whole situation? Is it ever the right time to ‘well actually‘ a gift? What’s the best thing about NuTrek? It’s the episode that wouldn’t lose its cool at baggage claim.

Stick Man Arms Race (VOY S6E13) Aug 14, 2023

Show notes

When aliens of dubious superiority show up in Voyager’s sicksbay, they’re so taken by the EMH’s singing that they invite him to perform on their home world. But when Doc Holoday’s concert earns him a taste of fame, his willingness to leave Voyager puts his most important relationships at risk. How did Marc Maron do it all those years? What constitutes groupie behavior? Why pivot away from children’s classics? It’s the episode that knows what it feels like to wear a metaphorical clown suit!
