STTNGeez! Not Another Star Trek Podcast!

Today’s lesson: killing is bad. In case that’s not clear to you, Dr. Beverly Crusher and her best friend Captain Johnny will explain it to you in painful, painful detail when they get embroiled in yet another society divided by bloodshed. After all the fun we had with the Acamarians and the Gatherers, with the Angosians and their exiled veterans, we get the Rutians and the Ansata. It seems the Ansata want their independence, and the Rutians are like all, not happening, brochacho. This leads to the IRA . . . Uhhh, that is, the Ansata waging a war of terrorism and chaos. When the Ansata kidnap Dr. Bev, things get tense and JLP gets cranky. The worried Wes works on cracking the case of the Ansata’s ability to transport without a transporter while Riker works with the local authorities to try and rescue Bev. Then get ready for things to get knocked into 12th gear when a raid on the orbiting Enterprise nets the Ansata the ultimate prize prisoner--Captain Jean-Luc Picard! Shit just got real, my friends! Will The Enterprise crew be able to rescue the hostages? Will the Rutian society find a way to come together and stop the violence? Is Riker going to bang that Rutian cop or what?

ST:TNGeez 3.11 The Hunted

Cue “All Around the Watchtower '' as TNG goes all “Apocalypse Now” on us. The Enterprise is evaluating Angosia III for membership in the federation when their own version of Martin Sheen, Roga Danar, decides to go AWOL and steals a ship only to end up facing off with the flagship of the Federation. After a merry chase, they manage to beam him aboard and wrestle him into submission. While Danar languishes in detention, Troi gets a whiff of his pain, and seeing that he’s a fine specimen of man meat, decides to get to know him a little. Troi enlists Data to do some research on Danar and they discover he’s Captain Angosia, a bioengineered super soldier with psychological issues that make him explosively violent. Danar and his fellow veterans have been exiled to a lunar colony by the same government that created them and they would rather die than remain prisoners. Will Picard be able to find a solution to this explosive social dilemma? Will Troi get a chance to sample Danar’s Swedish meatballs? Will Data ever quit projecting his shit onto everyone he meets?
