Terok Noir: A Star Trek Podcast

• S5E9 - "The Ascent"

  Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) make “The Ascent” as we discuss this Odd Couple of an episode featuring the pairings of Odo/Quark and Jake/Nog. We enjoy the continued dynamic between Odo and Quark, we can’t help but laugh at Odo’s Gumby-esque broken leg, we speculate that DS9 is told from Rom’s POV and we ponder if Star Trek is considered with the future anymore. Matthew asks if Rom is Forrest Gump and Jo rants about Nog and Jake’s flat. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at [email protected]

• S5E8 - "Things Past"

  Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) discuss “Things Past” as we take a look at a difficult moment in Odo’s past. We praise the writing and directing of the episode, we celebrate the deep character study of Odo and we analyze what the writer is saying about structures of law and justice. Matthew derails every one of Jo’s segues and Jo loves a good villain. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at [email protected]

• S5E7 - "Let He Who Is Without Sin..."

  Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) “Let He Who Is Without Sin…” go to Risa as we pod about Worf and his wild antics in this episode. We talk about Worf and sports for a surprisingly long time, we argue that maybe Leeta shouldn’t have told Bashir about Rom right after breaking up with the good doctor and of course we talk about Curzon Dax dying from Snu Snu. Matthew explains the problem with Star Wars and Jo is just happy that Worf isn’t bi/pan-phobic, he’s just a jealous lover. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at [email protected]

• S5E6 - "Trials and Tribble-ations"

  Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) endure “Trials and Tribble-ations” as we return to the past alongside the Defiant crew.  We praise the technological achievement of this episode, we indulge in the cuteness of the nostalgia and we compare the nostalgia of this episode of that of Picard S3 while having a prolonged conversation about how all IP content is anchored in nostalgia and is unable to grow beyond it. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at [email protected]

• S5E5 - "The Assignment"

  Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) accept “The Assignment” as we crown this our favorite Keiko episode. We argue that the writing and acting from Rosalind Chao gives us the best version of Keiko and best Keiko performance, we track Rom’s ascension to the day shift and Jo has a theory about why she loves theorizing about the O’Brien polycule. Matthew asks just how rough Morn’s life is that he’s at the bar when it opens and Jo questions Keiko’s pronunciation of the word “basil”. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at [email protected]
