This week, Alice and Skyler are detouring from DS9 with another Danny Solomon-led BLOCKBUSTER return to The Next Generation to rank the times other members of the crew filled in for Picard. Together, they discuss rushing into the sun, what Garret's up to, the need for space gossip, where Geordi's rizz is, ensigns forgetting their place, how King Ralph surely influenced TNG, the kinds of sports references Alice and Skyler can grasp, getting cancelled for anti-android bias, how the Klingons even get through the day given all their warring, Danny's upcoming grab-bag episode concepts, and much, much more. Listen!!

This week, Alice and Skyler are back to discuss DS9 season five, episode five, "The Assignment." Topics include the effectiveness of book marketing on Skyler, where Garret has gone and what the hell he's doing there, Tony Gilroy's upcoming cello movie, dogs under the bed, adding muscle to your back, all the cool ads Memory Alpha's providing its visitors, Alice's dance moves, Keiko getting possessed by a space ghost, whether or not Jake Sisko is seven, being mean to Rom, the chances of consequences sticking for any DS9 character, and much, much more! Listen!!

Also, please be warned, Skyler's track had a connection issue, making for a bit of an obnoxious buzzing that comes in and out throughout the episode. THIS IS AN ANOMALY AND WE APOLOGIZE. It should not happen again, but! It must be noted.
