Trek Mate: Ten Forward

Episode 199 of Ten Forward is about sport, sorry.  

This week, Sina, Not-So-Evil-Dan & Carnivorous Chris Johnson delve deeply into three episodes where the crew is acting damned irregular.  What did the character’s wacky mind trips teach them?  Or us?  What opportunities were missed?  Why are Tasha Yar’s quarters full of dick statues? These questions and more get answered as we float downstream on the great inebreation continuum (with Sina as the designated rower).

Sina is joined at the bar by Sarah and Caroline with Continuing Missions – we discuss progressive (and not so progressive) moments in Voyager and meander into other series while we have a few drinks.  Join us with your choice of adult beverage.    

Join Sina, Not-So-Evil Dan, and El Pero Caliente for a loving and irreverent look at the long history of fisticuffs in Star Trek, where our hosts learn that not all slug fests are created equal.

Ten Forward: Episode 195 – Trials, Troubles, Trbbles & Tribulations QueenKatBlue (Cat is spelt with a”K”) and The Pinecone couldn’t be bothered with preparation and thinking too much this week. And what with Sina having a bad week at work and Paul just finishing a long hike they decided to relax and watch an episode of Star Trek together. You can watch along with us if you like and enjoy the best ever episode of Star Trek ever of all time in history… according to Paul. In fact it’s one from the Desert Island gimme list.

This week’s diversion is all about BATMAN! With a new straight to Blu-Ray, animated version of the classic Batman, The Killing Joke the boys review the very graphic novel and discuss all things Batman. Oh and in the bloopers they talk sportsball. Hope you enjoy it.

This episode, well, Dan drinks at the bar (but what’s new about that?!?) and so does Sina (!!!), so you know what that means… Nice bar conversation of celebrities who have guest starred in Star Trek and celebrities who were in ST before they hit it big.  Dan and I meander into and out of some other discussions, and we also try to catch up on some feedback – but it’s painless, I promise!  

Join Sina, Dan and Scott as we discuss Greg Cox’ Pike Era book A Child of Two Worlds. Who liked it?  Who didn’t?  What is the Firbob Award and who won it?  All this and more in this latest installment of book club. Scott’s blog is:  graylog.wordpress.com Dan in all his Evilness can be reached at @dlevitt79 Sina is still driving all over Texas, but she occasionally shares photos and rants on Twitter:  @queenkatblue  

Yes!  Ben is back in the bar with Chris Johnson, aka Carnivore J. The boys have a relaxed chat, meandering in and out of Star Trek topics, plus other interesting stuff. Come have a drink with them. A great big thanks to Chris (@carnivorej) for this episode.  You and Ben are always welcome at the bar.    

This week we skip back a few episodes to back fill the eipisode numer that Firbob missed, which is nice… We are joined by Les AKA Trekkie Jedi to discuss the First Officers of Trek, and to rank them in some sort of order, the final outcome of which may shock you. Find us in all the usual places  

This week on Ten Forward, Evil Dan was left alone, he made a show, that’s all I know, I’m just posting this thing. @tenforward1701 @dlevitt79 I’m guessing that the image is relative to the show

Ten Forward: Episode 187 – Wesley Crusher/Will Wheaton Profile The Pinecone is on his own this week. That’s the problem with real life. The Ten Forward hosts all have a real life and sometimes it gets in the way of podcasting. Last week we couldn’t find anyone who wasn’t working or busy. This week was the same but Firbob to the rescue with a slightly different Ten Forward. A Character/Actor profile of everyone’s favourite “child aboard the Enterprise”, Wesley Crusher and his real life persona, Will Wheaton. Hope you enjoy it. Normal service will resume next week.
