Terok Noir: A Star Trek Podcast

Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) welcome “The Visitor” to the pod as we talk about one of the most deeply moving, timeless episodes of Star Trek. We put this episode in conversation with the classic TNG episode “The Inner Light”, we praise the acting of Tony Todd and how he and Avery Brooks were able to deliver the same intimate, father/son relationship that Avery Brooks and Cirroc Lofton have developed over the course of the series and we explore what this episode is saying about Jake’s grief and connect it to how the series premiere addresses Ben’s grief. Matthew asks if Jake Sisko is responsible for the Dominion War and Jo rants about Starfleet uniform timeline continuity

Terok Noir: S4E1 - "The Way of the Warrior"

Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) follow “The Way of the Warrior” as they join Lt. Commander Worf to talk about the Season 4 premiere. We talk Klingons, we talk root beer, we talk space battles, we talk about readying even numbered launchers and odd numbered launchers, we talk Sisko’s new haircut, we talk about honor, we talk about the new theme song, we talk about Gowron’s insane bug eyes, we talk about bullshit made up corporate sounding titles that they give Worf and even though he doesn’t talk about him, we also talk about Alexander, Worf’s son. All that and more in this packed episode. Also, Matthew attempts to predict which characters Jo will queer in this episode and Jo cannot stop talking about how much she loves the epic battle scene.

Next Episode

Terok Noir: S4E3 - "Hippocratic Oath"

Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) take the “Hippocratic Oath” to do no harm as we talk about all the harm that Worf causes on DS9. We discuss the very rough, fascist cop look we get of Worf in this episode and how it is necessary to differentiate TNG Worf from DS9 Worf, we talk about Bashir and Miles’ hangout with the Jem’Hadar and how Bashir values them as individuals and not just slaves of the Dominion and we question what direction this season is headed. Matthew asks if we should do a Discovery recap pod and Jo is totally normal over that one scene where Miles says he wishes he was married to a man.
