The Starter Trek crew continue their journey through Star Trek’s “spiciest” episodes, finally returning to Deep Space Nine, where the queen of Star Trek herself, Lwaxana Troi, brings her horny space menopause aboard the station, while O’Brien faces an even more terrifying danger: being a husband in a 90s marriage storyline.

This week on Starter Trek, Jessie Gender, Tawny Newsome, and Andrew Ti continue their journey through the "spicy" episodes of Star Trek, with The Next Generation's horniest episode, which is wild considering it was the second episode of TNG ever made: "The Naked Now." Why does no one quarantine? Why did the Chief Engineer even need a hypo-spray? Why did DC Fontana take her name off this script? We'll find out soon!

This week on Starter Trek, Jessie Gender, Tawny Newsome, and Andrew Ti start their journey through the "spicy" episodes of Star Trek, beginning with the horniest episode of them all: "Amok Time." Why does Spock hate soup, why is Kirk sleeping in his full uniform, why did Jessie talk to a muppet, and where did the iconic Vulcan salute come from? Soon Andrew will know all!

This week on Starter Trek, Jessie Gender, Tawny Newsome, and Andrew Ti take a Quarkstop in “Little Green Men,” where Quark, Rom, and Nog accidentally become the aliens at Roswell; the DS9 writers roast how absurdly much everyone used to smoke in 1950s America; and Quark and Odo get really close.

This week on Starter Trek, Jessie Gender, Tawny Newsome, and Andrew Ti tackle “A Night in Sickbay,” where Archer completely loses his mind over Porthos, Phlox turns bedtime into a deeply unsettling performance art piece, and Enterprise proves that sometimes humanity's greatest obstacle to diplomacy is one very stressed man refusing to apologize.

Tawny Newsome and Eugene Cordero are about to launch a new rewatch show for Star Trek: Lower Decks. This is not that show yet. This is the prep where they tackle the big questions: where will they receive gifts, whether we can watch the episodes at the gun range, and how they can get a Paramount+ subscription. For Star Trek Day, we're releasing the first episode for FREE! All future episodes of this podcast are available to paid subscribers on Suboptimal Podcasts, with episodes released biweekly!  Sign up to get every episode, the progenitor episodes of Starter Trek, support our content, and so much more over at https://suboptimalpods.com/

Deep Space Nine goes where no crossover had gone before: directly into “The Trouble with Tribbles.” We revisit “Trials and Tribble-ations,” featuring Kirk hero worship, Dax flirting across time, Bashir nearly becoming his own grandfather, and Worf absolutely refusing to explain Klingon foreheads.
