204: Red Wine? Oh My!

After 282 episodes, To The Journey is set for another transition as the current hosts disembark.

In this special episode of To The Journey, hosts Liam Smart and Suzanne Williamson aimlessly talk about things to do with Star Trek Voyager. We talk about Voyager toys, hot aliens, and a bit of fanfic.

With over 160 episodes of Star Trek: Voyager, you could be forgiven for thinking a few can go on the ‘meh’ pile. There are also a lot of episodes that rise to the top when it comes to thinking of the best of the best. But it is almost impossible to choose just one episode from each series that is not to be missed. 

In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Liam Smart and Suzanne Williamson attempt to whittle down each season to just ONE episode that embodies Voyager. Of course they do not agree...

One of the many, many (did we say many?) episodes of Star Trek: Voyager to feature the Borg, Season 6’s Survival Instinct focuses on members of Seven of Nine’s Unimatrix that crash landed with her on a random planet a few years prior to the events of the episode. These now ex-Borg are desperate to find a way of delinking themselves from the mini-collective they were forced to form by Seven, and now require Seven to help them undo it. 

In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Liam Smart are joined by Christopher D Littlefield for a commentary on Season 6 Episode 2, Survival Instinct.

Farewells in Voyager and Farewell to Zachary. 

Star Trek: Voyager had its fair share of farewells, from the departure of Kes and Neelix to some emotional farewells between the Voyager crew and their alien love interests of the week. In this episode of To The Journey, we discuss the many farewells in Voyager—even one goodbye that's more of a "good riddance" than a farewell! And, in this special episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Liam Smart say their farewells to fellow host Zachary Fruhling, departing the show for the next leg of the journey, in podcasting and in life.

When we think of the shows that bring us comfort in difficult times, Star Trek Voyager is always at the top of the list for hosts Suzanne Williamson and Liam Smart. In this episode of To The Journey we pick out our top 5 episodes to get us through this crazy macrovirus quarantine period that the world has been flung into. Liam has typically chosen not to follow the “top 5” rules, however!

Seven of Nine in Star Trek: Picard, Season 1. 

Fans of Star Trek: Voyager were excited to see the return of Seven of Nine to the Star Trek universe in the first season of Star Trek: Picard. The Seven of Nine that we see in Star Trek: Picard, however, is quite different than the Seven of Nine we are accustomed to from Star Trek: Voyager. From Borg drone to member of the Voyager crew to Fenris Ranger, hosts Zachary Fruhling, Suzanne Williamson, and Liam Smart discuss Seven of Nine's overall character arc and the differences between her appearances in Star Trek: Voyager and the first season of Star Trek: Picard.
