Roger Korby plays intergalactic Indiana Jones, while Ensign Gamble loses his eyes in a bet against an ancient evil. Yep, the Jerks jump "Through the Lens of Time" and go off topic. We also investigate how STRANGE NEW WORLDS fares this season with STAR TREK's flexible format.

The Jerks step into the holodeck for another STAR TREK whodunnit. This time, who murdered a studio exec over a canceled 1960s science-fiction TV show? Was it Spock with the candlestick?

Speaking of pointy-eared science officers, we ask, "What does Spock need with a girlfriend?" TV Guide writer Gavia Baker-Whitelaw beams aboard to help us answer it.

We're dodging the walking dead this week as we catch a ride with Pike and M'Benga to Kenfori. Then, they get assimilated with their favorite Borg stories.

Will the Jerks survive, or will this be the last of them?

Knock. Knock.

Who's there?

Q.

Q who?

Trelene.

That's right, this week, it's "of gods and imps" with STRANGE NEW WORLDS's "Wedding Bell Blues." Join us as we enter the 5th dimension for a romping matrimony. Then, we share what we're fanning over this week.

Mark and Ryan are back to weekly reviews with this past season of STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS, starting with the conclusion to last seasons’s cliffhanger. How do you say “hegemony"? Then, the Jerks show and tell with ALIEN EARTH and MURDERBOT. Is now really the time for more corporate nihilistic sciecne fiction when we already live in a capitalistic dystopian nightmare?

INTERSTELLAR. EVENT HORIZON. They ain't got nothing on Disney's maligned THE BLACK HOLE. The Ship Full of Jerks is caught in the gravitational pull of this film and pulled ever closer to the accretion disc as the Jerks get to the Joesph Bottoms of the franchise that never was. They talk bad perms, homoerotic tension and googly-eyed robots.

The Jerks are back from their hiatus for a Code 9 Priority -- our review of SECTION 31, Paramount Plus's first streaming movie. Buckle up because there's gonna be some chop ahead. Then, both Mark and Ryan tell us what we're fanning over. No spoilers but Ryan's does tangentially reference STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE.

The Jerk's are joined by writer and Star Wars expert Hannibal Tabu to discuss The Acolyte. We discuss the show's themes and its depiction of the Jedi as the police of a decaying and decadent society. Were the grand days of the Old Republic just a myth pushed by Ben and Yoda?

Plus Hannibal joins us for another round of Fanning!
