    DS9 S5E19 – "Ties of Blood and Water"

    This week, Alice and Skyler are back to discuss DS9 season five, episode nineteen, "Ties of Blood and Water." Topics include lizard privilege, the very big movies Skyler knows about, how to snag yourself an ovenful of hot plastic, cat heart health interventions, this episode returning to the "bad episode name" Star Trek naming convention, characters showing up just to die, drunk Vorta, and much, much more! Also, apologies, Skyler's laptop basically told him it could no longer continue being a laptop at a certain point in the record, so, things get a touch wonky toward the end of the episode. But? The episode is still good!! Listen!!!

    This week, Alice and Skyler are back to discuss DS9 season five, episode thirteen, "For the Uniform." Topics include getting back to the warm bath of a so-so episode, what you're allowed to bring into a Best Buy, whether or not Skyler's too cagey about the people he knows and the life he leads, Alice being wrong about which house was the Mary Tyler Moore house, Scott Pelley absolutely going off on current CBS, what, exactly, the Maquis are so mad about, and much, much more! Listen!!! Also, sincere apologies—Skyler's track developed an annoying buzzing due to a mic connection over the course of the episode. It's listenable, but? Not ideal!! Our mistake!!
