Brother Date

The Reckoning | My Starship | The Haunting of Deck 12

How many of DS9's residents and visitors have had powerful orb experiences? Why isn't the name of this week's TNG, "Saddle Mine"? Has Voyager finally found a home for Ray (plural)?

Find out on Brother Date! We can no longer be reached for comment!

(redacted) | Life Line | Birthright Pt. 2 | His Way

This week on Brother Date...

We deleted another regular segment from the show for good! Home stretch, people. So don't bother writing in to tell us whether Troi deserved that ice cream. Yet another character "becomes" this week, and we're finally introduced to Felix!

Let's get together, yeah yeah yeah!

Mailbag | Fury | Birthright Pt 1 | In The Pale Moonlight

I don't think the web has really caught on yet, but there are some good streaming comedies on Netflix these days. We give our official podcast recommendation in the Mailbag.

On TrekTalk, we ask some questions. Why's she so mad, though? What's the deal with Shrek? Why won't my lasagna souffle rise?

Brother Date! It's a fake!

Mailbag | Muse | Inquisition | Tapestry

You're hearing it more and more on the street. What do we shout when we pop open a crisp, cold Dos Equis Ambar Especial?

Also, do you believe in the power of an actor's performance, or a playwright's quill? Is Worf embarrassed about ordering breakfast off the kid's menu? Can Corey remember that he and Johnny are the same age, please, for once, can he remember they're best friends and both of them are 22 years old?

Brother Date! I know this one!

Mailbag | Face of the Enemy | Live Fast and Prosper | Wrongs Darker Than Death or Night

In the mailbag we answer pressing questions like "What was Happy Gilmore's name?" Then, we do a solid 60 minutes about dinner parties, talk about some of the least fundamental Voyager episodes, and...(sigh)... have a serious discussion about comfort women. Thanks, Ron Moore!

Brother Date! True grifters for life!

Mailbag | Aquiel | Change of Heart | Good Shepherd

Guys... guys I'm so sorry. This is aurally the worst Brother Date episode yet. There's so much grimy coughing in here. I thought... I thought I was hiding them. I was NOT hiding them. Oh man... oh man I'm so embarrassed. Just... you can skip this one, ok? It's just Star Trek. You don't need to hear it. Some RoboCop talk. Some Running Man. We'll catch you up on it if you talk to us IRL. Yikes, so sorry.

Mailbag | Child's Play | Honor Among Thieves | Ship In a Bottle

In the mailbag, we go in-depth on our various social anxieties. Then we zip over to Brunali... Prime?... to learn all about weird family guilt. We make a quick stop at the old alien bar to learn that it's really all about family, and we finish up with some unexamined fear of crimes and the criminals who might do crimes.

Brother Date! It's a psychology podcast!

Mailbag | Ashes to Ashes | One Little Ship | Chain of Command II

What if instead of hating me, you imagined a world in which you really loved me? When is a good time to tell somebody you've always had the horny hots for them? What if Honey I Shrunk The Kids happened in outer space? What is the protocol for making small talk with somebody whose head needs a punching?

Brother Date! They are inquisitive!

Mailbag | Far Beyond the Stars | Spirit Folk | Chain of Command Pt. 1

Are our graphics chips liquid cooled? We dive deep in the Mailbag.

Then, should Deep Space Nine really just be about 1950s New York City? Like... just for maximum art value? What is the plural form of doofus? Why are people so down on my boy, Ed Jellin'? Finally, please write in and tell us who your favorite Running Man cast member is. It's for a school project we're working on.

Seven Brother Dates Forever!

Mailbag | The Quality of Life | Collective | Who Mourns for Morn?

After a brief hiatus, we discuss Bethesda's Starfield. If we like it so much why do we have so many complaints? Then we dive into heavy theorizing about Captain Picard's role in Starfleet, wonder yet again what a better show than Voyager would do, and ask Ryan to rate our new hot tub.

Brother Date! It's saddle time!

Mailbag | A Fistful of Datas | Tsunkatse | Waltz

In the mailbag, we discuss how much fraud we're willing to commit for a laugh. Then, how do you become a doomsday prepper on the USS Enterprise? Does anybody on the USS Voyager want to go home? And will Marc Alaimo accept our gracious invitation and appear on next week's show?

Find out... I guess next week... on Brother Date!

Mailbag | Memorial | The Magnificent Ferengi | Rascals

This week on Broth -- THERE ISN'T TIME FOR EXPLANATION! 

Mailbag | True Q | Statistical Probabilities | Virtuoso

This week's mailbag features a Sports Roundup. Then we get into all the good stuff. Who's that guy Amanda Rogers blasted into the priceless ceramics? Can these individual DS9 guest actors please be credited under one theater troupe name for simplicity? Why can't we just give the Kimtones a chance?

Brother Date! Blaze a fat glory!

Mailbag | Resurrection | Blink Of An Eye | Schisms

The mailbag is saved! The people rejoice! How do I get apps on my computer?

Kira's got new moves, Voyager finds a weird planet, and the USS Enterprise nearly runs out of warp energy!

Brother Date! Everybody drink your coma juice!

Mailbag | Relics | Fair Haven | You Are Cordially Invited |

SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED! A quick catch-up in the Mailbag. Three very important characters make their last appearances in TNG, VOY, and DS9. A landmark week.

Brother Date! Rate limit exceeded!

Mailbag | Pathfinder | Sacrifice of Angels | Man of the People

In this week's mailbag we try to get to the bottom of the internet. What is EVEN good about it? Two TNG episodes this week since the Voyager writers took the week off. Sisko was a bit preoccupied in this week's DS9, which is hella relatable. Finally, Ves Alkar joins us to talk about how YOU. TOO. CAN. HAVE. IT. ALL. Really inspiring stuff.

Brother Date! If that rock glow you must say no.

Mailbag | Realm of Fear | The Voyager Conspiracy | Favor The Bold

The Mailbag is full of BBQ sauce and faux-bacon this week. All of our questions about the technology of Star Trek are finally answered in this week's TNG. Voyager's leadership is doing just fine, thank you, no questions please. And if there's one thing we can all agree upon, it's that Damar is to blame. That guy is a mess.

Brother Date! Ocean smells and ocean sounds!

Mailbag | One Small Step | Behind the Lines | Time's Arrow II

What are the good social media platforms and how do you use them? Is it even possible for Seven to take her shoes off without removing her entire jumpsuit? Is it Randy's job to pick up all of those spent power cells rolling all over the damn place? Is it Rodney's? Are there historical sources to support this hit job TNG did on America's greatest literary minds?

Questions asked. Will they be answered? Brother Date! Toot-toot!

Mailbag | Time's Arrow | Dragon's Teeth | Sons and Daughters

Which special skill has kept one of our hosts unemployed? We dive deep in "Spotlight on Tech" to find out how Data stacks up against an iPad. How do the writers of Star Trek Voyager feel about this week's news about President Biden's plans to send more troops to the border with Mexico? Who's a better father, Worf or Skrain?

Brother Date, a popular show for adults!

Mailbag | Riddles | The Inner Light | Rocks and Shoals

What is J's greatest fear, sports edition? How would Voyager have earned a perfect ten this week? Would you go to an event honoring a dead civilization if it promised a free concert and cocktails? Which song could have stopped this terrible space war before it started?

The answers... were inside of you all along. Brother Date! It's a quiet show full of conversation and contemplation!
