In tense times, TNC is there to talk about episodes of Star Trek that throw back to exactly the same year with different tense times, but is that what they meant by the title? Also we ask the eternal question, "Is Frank Military a made-up name?"

[Episode discussion begins around 1:01]

Everybody's in love with everybody! Just like Naked Now, except crappy and with less sense! And also the return of the oozing non-sexuality of Bareil!

[Episode discussion begins around 1:30ish]

The crew of DS9 get a visit...from an old friend. OR IS IT?

[Episode discussion begins around 1:37ish]

Jadzia is hot for a bland douchebag, Quark tries to pull some Barclay creepology with Kira, and Andy has a new theory about Sisko.

[Episode discussion begins around 1:05ish]

Someone's joined the Q Continuum (the TNC Patreon level - it's possible it also gains you access to the actual Q Continuum, we just can't promise)! Time to discuss! Meanwhile, Garak goes head-to-head with Dukat, Quark and Odo spend some alone time, and Jake, Ben, and O'Brien clamber around some ducts. But does this add up to Andy and Matt thinking the episode is good or bad? And can it be bad when it may have the funniest moment in all of Star Trek??

[Episode discussion begins around  1:37 - LOOK, THE Q CONTINUUM?! WE HAD TO DOWNLOAD]

Odo adopts a Jem'Hadar, who he tries to train out of murdering people by raising his bloodlust in the holodeck. Minor Mardah spoiler around 1:53ish, for the Mardiacs.

[Episode discussion begins around  1:09ish]

DS9 s3e5 “Second Skin”

Kira comes down with a bad case of the Cardies! And post-Vegas STLV, Matt and Andy are somehow even more fully off the rails than usual as the episode discussion begins around - get this - 2:06ish]

And due to one of the many insane digressions in this episode, if any of you feel swayed to buy WWE 2K24, use one of these links. I signed us up to be Amazon Affiliates and I barely understand it, so let us know in the comments if you actually bought one and we'll see what happens, but obviously no pressure at all - just curious. (Not even if I had to make separate links for each platform, but whatevs)

A treasure trove of Trill answers for Andy.... in a super boring treasure chest? And Matt wonders if Jadzia is losing it - or is the character just getting interesting?

[Episode discussion begins at a brisk 56:00ish]

A Klingon episode that Matt actually likes? And can a regular, standard fantastic episode get 10 Andys? Have Keiko and O'Brien gone from a couple of wet noodles to Star Trek's horniest couple?

Also, possible SPOILERS for those who practice: 

8:00ish STAR TREK: PICARD 

35:00ish-39:00ish STAR TREK (2009) Romulus stuff 

1:14ish VOYAGER

[Episode discussion begins around 1:37]

Odo meets his people then tosses something into one of his people’s strike zone…or does he? Matt and Andy discuss if people are really a-holes if somebody just dreams about them being a-holes. And now the conclusion. 

[Episode discussion begins around 53:00ish]

There's a new starship in town, and this one's built to kick ass, Federation style! Wait, is that Federation style? Also, Matt and Andy continue to question if, in fact, the Dominion was right.

AND MINOR ALERT: Due to a scheduling mess this month, we're gonna probably be recording "The Search, Pt 2" this Wednesday, although it might take a few days to get it posted, so if you want to listen fast and get your comments in, great! But if you want to comment in the subsequent episode on both, also feel free.]

[Episode discussion begins around  1:13. If it matters to anyone, lots of PICARD and STAR TREK 2009 spoilers at around 1:53-2:00]
