    BS9 Mini-Sode: Deep Space Nine/Lower Decks Crossover!

    BS9 Mini-Sode: Deep Space Nine/Lower Decks Crossover!

    Special mini-sode: Carl enjoyed the DS9/LD crossover "Hear All, Trust Nothing" this week, but he doesn't know anything about "Lower Decks."  That is where guests Ames and Jake come in.  Join us for a brief talk about what worked and what didn't, and what was normal for this show and what wasn't.  Also, Carl is moved by a sick display of kissing and phasering, Ames shares her guidelines for when reference humor does and doesn't work, and Jake compares Armin Shimerman's performance to some of his earlier work as a voice actor.
