Four friends are watching Star Trek--all of it—from the beginning. One has watched too much Star Trek over the years, one grew up on it, one has watched a few episodes here and there, and another has never seen one second of any Trek. Together they will explore the Final Frontier in a way only they could. Great for long-time fans and newcomers!

    Haven/The Big Goodbye (S1, E10/E11)

    Haven/The Big Goodbye (S1, E10/E11) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries Is Lwaxana Troi just that horny, or is some secret genius, like a sex Columbo?

    Datalore/Angel One (S1, E12/E13)

    Datalore/Angel One (S1, E12/E13) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries Data finds the psychotic, murdering twin brother he always wanted! Troi is once again missing. For reasons. Meanwhile, we take a trip to Angel One and see if toxic femininity is even a thing? Also, as long predicted, if Beverly Crusher were on the case of COVID, she’d have had the thing wrapped up in 44 minutes. No two-parter needed. Her hair would be perfect the entire time.

    11001001/Too Short a Season (S1, E14/E15)

    11001001/Too Short a Season (S1, E14/E15) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries We like Riker. Really, we do. He may need a leash. At the very least, we have some questions about why his wildest fantasies involve not being a very good trombone player, and then have his boss play third wheel on a pretend date… Meanwhile, Z has an exclusive interview with One Zero and Zero One, the Bynars who masterminded the hijacking of the Enterprise. Also, Too Short a Season happens. But it does lead to a conversation about accessibility in the future! Plenty of new things coming to partyapocalypse.com in the coming weeks!

    When The Bough Breaks/Home Soil (S1, E16/E17)

    When The Bough Breaks/Home Soil (S1, E16/E17) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries The Space Atlanteans are here, and they want 8 of the smartest, cutest (cough) whitest (cough) children the Enterprise has! Also, we almost enjoy a story about terraforming, before realizing we’re ugly bags of mostly water. During our commercial Z “Stay cool” Lee catches up with the Aldeans, but with a twist. They’re wearing a wire. That’s it. That’s the twist. The Once and Future Orson Welles is now available in Kindle and paperback editions. Buy it now!

    Coming of Age/Heart of Glory (S1, E18/E19)

    Coming of Age/Heart of Glory (S1, E18/E19) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries Wesley meets a girl! And his greatest fears! Much to our surprise, they aren’t one and the same thing. Then we witness live as Eris becomes a full-on Klingon stan, before reviewing a bit of Klingon language, culture, and recipes! (Mmm, Raktajino!)

    The Arsenal of Freedom/Symbiosis (S1, E20/E21)

    Arsenal of Freedom/Symbiosis (S1, E20/E21) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries Discussions about The Arsenal of Freedom descends into a discussion of Practical Magic (1998) and Sub Rosa (it all makes sense, kind of). Before the entire episode (and Star Trek itself, kinda) descends into a discussion of NFTs. They’re bad! Also, they’re kind of lame. Drugs are also discussed, because, Symbiosis. Friendibals: Two Friends Talking About Hannibal Lecter will start airing shows this Monday. Find it on the site, and wherever fine podcasts are found (sit down, Spotify).

    Skin of Evil/We'll Always Have Paris (S1, E22/E23)

    Skin of Evil/We'll Always Have Paris (S1, E22/E23) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries And so it comes time to say goodbye, for now, to a character we’ve grown to love and appreciate. Of course, we’re talking about the super-annoying, fourth-of-four chief engineers we’ve been subjected to this season, Leland T. Gasbag. Also, (spoilers) Tasha Yar joins that Great Big Anbo-Jyutsu tournament in the sky and says good-bye via a ghost hologram in the middle of a Window’s 95 desktop background. It sounds like we didn’t like the episode, but we did. Also, We’ll Always Have Paris happened. Mac tries to remember if Oklahoma’s only Casablanca-themed restaurant was a thing he imagined, and the entire away team would prefer if Warner Bros. doesn’t sue. Friendibals: Two Friends Talking About Hannibal Lecter is now airing on the Mondays immediately after fridays in which we post new THIBs.

    Conspiracy/The Neutral Zone (S1, E24/E25)

    Conspiracy/The Neutral Zone (S1, E24/E25) Party Now, Apocalypse Later Industries And so, our journey through TNG season 1 has come to an end. We didn’t hate it as much as we might have! Although Conspiracy could have been at least 15% less gross (or have better special effects), and they shouldn’t really let self-proclaimed 20th Century tycoons on the bridge, especially when they’re staring down a Romulan warbird.

Four friends are watching Star Trek--all of it—from the beginning. One has watched too much Star Trek over the years, one grew up on it, one has watched a few episodes here and there, and another has never seen one second of any Trek. Together they will explore the Final Frontier in a way only they could. Great for long-time fans and newcomers!
