The Greatest Generation - Aggressively Flavorless (S6E22)

Episode Date: June 21, 2017

When Beverly loses her job as Chief Medical Officer, Guinan can feel the storm coming in her joints. The Doctor proceeds to Rashomon the story of her dismissal to the mysterious bartender, in one of the most peculiarly structured episodes yet. Did Dr. Crusher start getting into subspace to be close to her son? Did the Vulcan Science Academy get woke? Can hats violate the laws of physics? It’s the episode where we fall in love with a dreamy police detective.

Priority 1 message from Starfleet coming in on Secured Channel. Hey friends of Disodo. Before today's episode, we just wanted to take a moment to talk about the historic labor actions being taken by writers and actors in the American Film and Television industry. If you're a fan of the work done by the people who make Star Trek, we hope you'll join us in standing in solidarity with the folks who actually bring these adventures to life. Over the past several years, the AMPTP, the organization that represents the American Film and Television Production Studios, have reduced the profit from movies and TV going to workers. And in so doing,

they've attempted to weaken the labor unions that represent those workers. They wouldn't even engage the unions on many issues in their negotiations. And so a strike was the only course of action to take. Adam, Wendy and I have been having a lot of internal discussions about how best to stand with the unions and we are continuing those conversations in a dynamic situation. We're doing our best to understand where the picket lines are in these digital spaces,

and we would never intentionally cross one. With the information we have, we feel like we can do more good talking about and supporting the strike and continuing our show as planned. We'll keep you informed about what all this means for greatest trek specifically. Today we're making a contribution to the Entertainment Community Fund. This fund exists to help all the people whose livelihoods have been put on hold because the AMPTP refuses to negotiate

in good faith with the unions. It provides financial support for writers, actors, and all the thousands of laborers who make the shows that we talk about here and without whom we wouldn't have Star Trek to cast pot about. Those folks are all out of work because billionaires, company shareholders, and the executives of these companies don't want to compromise on the length of their yachts. We hope you'll join us in supporting entertainment workers in a challenging time, especially after they've already endured several years of challenges brought on by the pandemic

and season two of Star Trek Picard. We've set up a page where you can also contribute. It's at friendsofdecotoforlabor.com. That's friendsofdecisoto for labor.com. That's friendsofdisoto for labor.com. Link in the episode description. Okay, now let's get on with the show. Here's to the finest crew in a Star Trek podcast by a couple of guys who are a little bit embarrassed to have a Star Trek podcast. I'm Ben Harrison.

I'm Adam Prantica. Adam, we are still in sunny Southern California and we got to go on a little bit of a mission to recover the stuff that you were talking about that your wife got stolen. Yeah, I didn't think we would have a like a true blue follow-up to that story, but we do. It's fun. It's a fun follow-up. I think I might be one of the few people who have been to every Alhambra there is. Both the real Alhambra in Spain and the California Alhambra just outside of Los Angeles. Yeah. Is it a city, right?

City that neighborhoods Pasadena? It's a city that the moors made. Yeah. They made it out of stucco and franchise outlets. Oh yeah. They love using cheesecake factories as building material. Oh yeah, yeah. It's really a kind of a beautiful and lost architectural tradition.

Look, I don't want Alhambra to get a big head about this. I still love the Americana more and the Grove close second. Alhambra, pull it up third. Well, Alhambra can have a big head for different reasons because we came across a, I mean, like, what did we do to deserve getting to go do this mission together? So what happened was last time on the greatest generation. I told the story of a bunch of my wife's belongings being stolen out of a car as she was on a work trip in LA.

And not long after, maybe less than a week after, she got the call from a police officer in Alhambra. It said, hey, we got your stuff, come and get it. My wife being unable to come to LA and you and I having planned to be at Max Funcon in LA decided to make that one of the tasks we did. So we cruised out, we took the three and a half hour drive from LA to Alhambra and were confronted by just a devastatingly attractive detective man. Like, I was not prepared for this experience at all.

I'm expecting for this to be like, grizzled, uh, property crime detective guy who is like, here's your shit and get out. Yeah, don't hold out much hope for the credence guy. Like, my voice actually cracked talking to the sky. It was too attractive. Too attractive to be in the job here. I was too attractive to not be professionally attractive. Ha, ha, ha.

The moment I saw, I've never been so glad that my wife wasn't doing this task instead of me because she would have fallen in love with him and then would have gotten rightfully divorced from me. Like, Adam, your podcasting partner almost fell in love with him and then would have gotten rightfully divorced from me like Adam Your podcasting partner almost fell in love with him. It would have been the easiest divorce ever because I would have agreed with everything She said you can have the house husband not as good as the new guy not attractive Not as much of a badass. Yeah, does not a shop at Express. Yeah. Not as nice. Yeah.

Not as agreeable. No. Better hair cut. Yeah. This fucking guy. Checked every fucking fox, man. He gave you back all of the stuff. And then he's like, hey, we'll still need to search the car.

So there might be some more of your stuff in there. Do you want to hang out with me longer? I'm like, yes. Can I ride along with you? So we met up with him at the impound lot where the, these guys, these guys that do property crime and that's never followed the detective in charge to a second location. But we did that. Yeah, the guys that did the crime, the perps, as they say. In cot parlance, had been pulled over for something else,

and a bunch of hot product was discovered in their trunk. And let me tell you, I wanted to put a lot of hot product in this guy's trunk. My wife's iPad was covered in soy sauce. I mean, I wasn't complaining. Yeah, you did get the iPad back, but. Right. He goes and searches the car, I mean, that wasn't complaining. Yeah. You did get the iPad back, but... Right.

He goes and searches the car. Doesn't find anything else of yours or your wife, but he does find a crumpled up piece of paper. In... It was so funny. You and I were waiting outside the wrecking yard for him and we're like, we gotta drop a Lebowski in here somewhere. How are we gonna do it? And I had all but given up.

I wasn't gonna force the Lebowski issue. Yeah. He pulls this piece of paper out and I was like, is it social study homework? And he looked at you like, like you had lobsters crawling out of your ears. Like, he did not know that reference. I mean.

You were like, he was looking at us with a baseline amount of contempt as an attractive person looks at a couple of normals. Yeah. But any police officer that hasn't seen the big Lebowski. Come on, man. He, his stock actually dropped a little bit in my eyes for that. Yeah, like he went from, I want to change my life to be around this person, to, I want to like check into a hotel room with this person and have it be like,

when I blow into town. Have it be over with. Yeah, like when I blow into town, maybe we can relive that passionate night, but I don't want to like, you know, share a house in a life with you, per se. Not worth making the sacrifice for. He didn't say anything about checking with the boys of the crime lab. He didn't say anything about working in shifts.

You ask anyone what the most attractive quality is our 20 person. They'll tell you ability to crack wise using big Lebowski references, tops. Top, yeah. All other matters secondary to that. Incredible skin, bright white teeth, winning smile, all of that stuff is secondary. Yeah.

Well anyways, the piece of paper was like an Expedia reference printout from like a fancy hotel that they stayed at and down down LA. So presumably these guys had stolen a car in San Francisco and have just driven down the coast of California stealing shit and committing fraud to finance their little vacation. That might be all we want to say about the subject ban in case they're listening. Big fans! Hey, do you guys want to make sure we steal a car with an ox input so we can listen to our favorite podcast on the way down? It's so weird. Like, there is a version of life that includes crime holiday as a thing you do. Yeah. You want to go down the coast and just steal some shit? It's what you do. Yeah.

Ensure you're stolen vehicle with Geico. Same 15%. Don't give a freebie to fucking Geico. No, they paid me for that. You know what Geico did to me lately? I'm in my backyard doing backyard work. Yeah. My actual backyard. not the you weren't trimming your Your room for us backyard That is a less than two percenter. Yeah, and a zero percenter and a fucking plane flying a banner ad goes at like 150 feet above my house with that stupid lizard, the Geico lizard. God. It's inescapable, you can't escape from those ads. Those government employees have gone too far this time. There's no amount that they could pay me to advertise on this show.

Fuck you Geico. Wow. Well, I guess we've foreclosed on one of the biggest advertising accounts that you could possibly imagine getting. Someone, someone just behind us in Max fun is like quietly hanging up a phone Ripping up a check days and days of work put to bed Well at the end of the day like most of the good stuff got recovered. We made it very handsome detective. Yeah, really good day.

Yeah. You're gonna spend a day in Alhambra. It's probably the right way to do it. Yeah. Pretty good feeling. Do you want to get into the episode, Adam? Let's do that, Ben. Let's turn the page to season six, episode 22.

Shishbishan. Shishbishan. Shishbishan. The The most kevinny title. Even more than schisms, I think. Yeah, it's just a lot of opportunity for siblings. Do you think Kevin ever wore a retainer as a kid? If he ever was a kid? You didn't have a bit of a sh-

You can't sh- You didn't have a bit of a snaggle, too. You didn't have a bit of a snaggle, too. I feel like you didn't have a bit of a snaggle, too, which you wouldn't necessarily, like, I mean, if I was a doubt, I would want to look like the detective in El Ambra, not fucking Kevin. Yeah, yeah. Maybe when you're a doubt, you have the control to change everything around you, except yourself. Yeah, maybe.

That's heavy shit. I wanted to look age and attractiveness appropriate for my wife Roshan. And if I looked the way I truly picture myself, it never would have played. Captain Picard would have been suspicious much earlier than he already was. Or you could look like anything, but that shows to look like Shep Gordon. He's truly one of my heroes. When I hear the way he treats his friends, his door is always open, he's a mensch and he's a mensch of special courage. A mench would never commit genocide on this game that I have. You need every stoppage officer,

into the truth, find the truth, or a son of a truth, or a person to trust. Gynon bursts in on Dr. Crusher, who is like, Dr. Crusher is like flopping around her apartment. Like, she's just had a fucking day. Like, she's doing all that, like, you know, open the cabinet and slam. Like she's doing all that like you know open the cabinet and slam it when she doesn't find the you know craft dinner that she was hoping to find in there. She's just frustrated, she's spent, she's rung the fuck out and Geinen is in here going.

I need a doctor. Jordy Beatmean straightsets today. I think I've developed tennis elbow. I really want you to look at it. You're my favorite doctor. I can't have that O'Gala look at this. Gainin is, yeah, like she's doing the, I'm very particular about my, about my doctor gambit and that kind of made me think like, I mean, that must be something that you experience on a star show, right? Like, you're, you've got the recreation injury. Yeah, you've got like Dr. Salar and Dr. star show, right? Like, you've got the recreation injury. Yeah, you've got like Dr. Salar and Dr. Crusher, right?

I think the only two physicians on board. Is there like a B, like a six Bay point two? Like the free clinic version of six Bay? Yeah, for like anybody that's like, Ensign or Bay. Yeah, for like the, for anybody that's like, and center below. Yeah. Like, O'Brien is like, on a very rare occasion, getting his shoulder injury treated in actual Six Bay.

Most mostly he has to go. What's the insurance situation in the federation? Free and plentiful. Yeah, it seems like it. Well, anyways, pressure like is, at pain's not to treat kind and she says that the like main reason why is that she is no longer the chief medical officer on the entrepreneur. A cold open to theme that is only slightly less riveting than I'm here to relieve you of duty Captain Picard. Rationally.

Except we care a thousand times less. Oh, I had him. Ben, this episode is so bad. It's likely proceeded from the premise, what if we could tell a more boring Roshaman story from the perspective of your least interesting character? A more boring Roshaman story from only one person's perspective. Yeah. And there's no reason to tell the story this way.

It is more adventurous story structure than anything else. Like that is the most unusual part of the episode, right? I think adventure means something different than how you're using it there. You keep using the word. I don't think it means what you think it means. You just use adventure in the selling cigarette advertisements, parlance, you know?

Like taste of adventure. Yeah. Yeah. Well, yeah, so she starts to um Beverly's like you may be wondering how I found myself in this situation. Let me take it back. So yeah she and she and Gainin kind of hunkered down for a long story. So gather around as I run it down and unravel my pedigree.

And the background is that Dr. Crusher went to a subspace theory conference, which is maybe the first crime that this episode commits is like since when does Dr. Crusher give a fuck about subspace theory? Yeah, makes no sense. That's a Jordy conference, right? Yeah. Or a Barclay conference? Maybe Jordy is still on suspension

from the last time he went to a conference captured by the Romulans. No conferences for you for a couple of seasons there, buddy. Yeah. Can't trust you. Well, one of the people she met at this conference was a foreigngi science named Dr. Riga who was having a tough time Getting his ideas to gain any traction with the people at the con

Because he's a Farenki. Yeah, right. She was saying like like this is a really interesting cool theory This guy's working on but racism Has prevented his ability to like rise to prominence. So she like felt that She felt that she could do better. So she held a little conference of her own a little Little side con on the entrepreneur and she invited a bunch of scientists from all over the quadrant to attend. So she got a Vulcan, a human, a Klingon, and a Tacaran to come, right?

I believe that's correct. The Vulcan lady is the head of the Vulcan Academy, Vulcan Science Academy. That's what's spark like turn down the invite to at the beginning of that JJ Abrams movie, right? Yeah. So it's cool, because it was all like a panel of dudes before, they've gotten somewhat cooler in the hundred years since that.

Yeah, it appears that they may have gotten woke. Mm-hmm. Yeah. They did that they may have gotten woke. Mm-hmm. Yeah. They did a choice between an orange Vulcan and this lady, and they just go with the lady. Yeah. She seemed sane.

Yeah. And then her husband, who is a human, and then we've got the sort of a Paul Sorvino type. Yeah. Poor man's Paul Sorvino. Like, like she's typical Vulcan, but her taste in men skews very hard towards Paul Sorvino. Yeah, she was like, do you happen to have a human brother?

Can you hook me up with someone who looks a lot like your dad war? And then there's a Klingon lady who is a word propulsion specialist from the Klingon home world. Seems like just any Klingon, right? Like she's not in Klingon war kit, but she doesn't seem any different from any other Klingon. She's different because she's into science instead of stabbing. Yeah. But like the Vulcan isn't playing against type. But the Fringian, the Klingon definitely are. Yeah. And then you've got Joe Brill, who has like green loaf and green hair, all green everything. He's got blue racing stripes that go to his fingertips, like his middle two fingertips.

Those are the Coke fingers. That's the Tacaran. Yeah, and then, of course, the fringy Dr. Riga, who played by again, and Peter Slutsker. Boy, what a last name to be. To be walking around in 2017 with. Fun bit of trivia about Peter Slitzker. I hope you're not about to Slitzker shame who, Adam.

Is that in the early 2000s, he changed his name to Peter Marks with an X. Really? Yeah. Probably tired of getting Slitzker ashamed. How about it? I think I just made that joke out of it. Yeah.

I just wanted to put exactly the same hat on that hat. Yeah. Two of the same hat occupying the same space at the same time. You know how like you'll go to a toy store and they'll have the plastic fireman's hat, stack of hats that are like perfectly pressed into the pile. That's what that joke was. Interlocking hats joke. As an editor, Ben, you could just take one or the other.

I suppose I could, like the magnanimous move would be to take my slutsker shaming joke out and leave yours in. Make it seem like we took a long walk to a nice little punchline that you came up with in the moment. Yeah, I know, I know you possess no such magnanimity. I'm a magnet immense. What do they do? Yeah, that's how that song goes. That was like the dad jokification of that song. I'm your cool English teacher. Now let's get back to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

Woop, whoop, whoop. Family. Mary Shelley is a real little blaster type. Make it so. Make it so. Make it so. Make it so. Make it so. The thing that they're working on here is metaphysics shielding. You've all seen my experimental data. The metaphysics shield has been proven. Forgive my skepticism, doctor, but your claims are somewhat extravagant. Protect a shuttle within a star's corona.

And I was like, Doug, why the corona? Why not the Modelo Especial? Why not the Pacifico? I didn't hear your last two because I took off my headphones. Just gonna let you spool that one out, dad. I went out of Taccate. that you spooled that one out, dad. I went out of Tekate.

What is your favorite easy drink in Mexican beer? I think a Pacifico is probably my move. If I'm gonna drink a lot of Mexican beer recipes are actually German beer recipes. Oh yeah. A lot of German immigrates to Mexico, founded breweries, and so that's why the kind of like that like kind of golden flavorless beer is so popular in both places. That's why it's so popular with me. Yeah. Give me a little less flavor, guys, so I can have eight of them. Yeah.

He's up on that flavor. He's up on that flavor throttle. When you're not in flavor country, that's Modello town. Now, I think Modello and Pacifico have something to them. I love Modello special. That is my choice in Mexican beers. Yeah, in a way that your corona, your ticate, I find very off-putting because it's like almost an engineered lack of flavor.

Almost aggressively flavorless. Yeah, I went to a hip-hop show one time and everybody was drinking coronas with grenadine squirted into them. So, they were just like beer bottles that were bright red and everybody had like red lips and tongues. Really? Yeah. It was really, yeah. Did it look cool under a black light? Was that the effect? That wasn't the, they weren't doing a black light at this show. So it was like, yeah, like it would have been a thing if it was a thing, but it wasn't a thing.

Everybody just looked like a kid that was eating too much fucking red candy. Yeah. That's fun to make out with. Who knows why anybody does anything at him? Anyways, this metaphysics shielding, it's gonna fly into some sudsy Mexican beer. They're like, who wants to volunteer for this mission?

It's something that's never been done before and is extremely dangerous. Jim Shemot is like, I haven't been on the show for five and a half seasons, but what's up? Data's like, nobody believes that Dr. Riga has achieved what he claims to achieve,

which is this, that he's like, actually built this. At this point in the story is Beverly doing the voices, you think, to Geinen? Like, like, like, Armaclingon, Sartus. People on my world don't respect my knowledge. I'm job-brain, I'm green all over. It's not easy being green. I'm a very serious, Vulcan scientist.

Mary to Paul Sorvino. I love the way he cuts my garlic. Yeah, deli thin. They have this like long, like totally insanely long conversation, especially for this being Dr. Crusher's recollection of it. Right. Could you imagine a fucking bored guy in this right now? Like, you could, you could speed it up, Doc.

Yeah. Yeah. Dianna's like, you know what? On second thought, I'm going to go back and play some more tennis with Jordy. It's less painful than this. I would rather be suffering through an awkward post tennis conversation with Jordy.

And listen to you muddle your way through a poorly told story. The decision is made, however, that they are going to test the metaphysics shield by jury-rooging it into a bunk bed and letting Joe Brill and accomplished pilots fly it into the corona of the star that the entrepreneur happens to be near. So he does it and he's he experiences a certain amount of ecstasy as soon as he penetrates the corona. He's like, oh Jesus, I'm in, am I in? My instruments say I'm in. This is incredible. I am actually flying into a star. Perhaps intended to thematically mimic that.

He starts to lose connection. It starts to look like the porn channel that's been scrambled. Yeah. On the, on the FaceTime there. And uh... They're watching along at home on the entrepreneur's bridge too. Yeah. Yeah. And the friend, he's like,

I got a guy that can trick your cable box into getting you this channel. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh slip away. This is the best part. They're getting a lot of telemetry from the shuttle and everything's looking great until it's not. And Joe Brill, like, starts to starts to really like be overwhelmed by his ecstasy. And Captain Picard has to do for Joe Brill what he did for Jake, which is talk him through getting out of this tight situation. Yeah. It is imperative that you turn the shuttle.

Take it out of the corona. You understand me. And so he gets him to pull up, fly the craft away from the star. And when it's out of the like radiation belt of the star or whatever they manage to beam him directly to Six Bay where he is conscious for moments as Dr. Crusher frantically tries to save him, but then he shovels loose this mortal coil. My love is a piece of blood and blood and blood and blood which long the nurse has been busy. How do you think we are seeing what actually happened or are we seeing Beverly's recollection of what happened?

That's interesting. Because I'm wondering if, like, are you seeing her extreme measures to save Gibral's life? Like, did they actually happen? Yeah, did, like, she was like, should we intubate him? No. You know, I'm pretty beat, you guys. I think I'm gonna turn in. Oh, go, you got this.

No, but she does feel, seem like she feels really guilty about this, because she was kinda like, she was kinda like advocating for this test. Some of the other scientists were like, not so sure about it. They did it and it didn't pay off. So like they have a meet-up the next day and like the Vulcan and the human are like,

pretty freaked out. Like the Vulcan is not being that vulcan-y, I feel like. She had some like jealous feelings and like there was a lot of ego on the line for her with this thing. Like the doctor forbids any further testing based on this accident, you know, like they managed to save the guy for a moment, but he winds up dying because he presumably got dosed with radiation while he was being protected by this metaphysics shielding. What didn't help is he has a totally different anatomy than anything Beverly's ever seen.

He's got like, he's got like cow stomachs and like everything's all connected in a weird way. So she's doing like her autopsy on him. And I think it's like the captain that comes down and she's like, He doesn't seem to have any discrete organs. And she demonstrates this by pointing to, presumably, an internal scan of him that's on the wall that shows a whole bunch of discrete organs. But yeah, she says basically, he would be impossible to kill because there's no like there's no one part of him that is like critical

It's all like spread out all over his entire body That's maybe the most the most interesting part of the episode This is about the moment where I was like are they gonna fucking do this form of storytelling the entire time because what you get is a Beverly voice over that goes the the alien's anatomy was very strange because he had no discrete organs. And then you see Beverly gesture to the computer, telling Picard, the alien's anatomy is extremely different from yours or mine

because it has no discrete organs. It was a real idiocracy situation where like the movie would be ten times smarter if it didn't have the voiceover. It's like, look guys, I have 15 pages of a script. What I'm trying to say is, is there a way to sort of double the dialogue to get us to our 47 minutes? Because we start shooting tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah, it felt so weak and derivative, like self-derivative in a weird way. Yeah, I mean, because the other thing that keeps happening is it just, like, it kind of keeps like redoing the test over and over again. Yeah. It's a story so nice they had to tell it twice, right? Yeah. Also, does an autopsy seem like a crazy, because an autopsy is where you cut somebody open

to see what happened inside of them. But do I just call it taking someone to the Y. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know that to be true. If you're a doctor out there, please get that going. If you're a doctor out there and you've recently performed an autopsy, I want you to dial into 206-984-4-FUN.

Tell us all about that. Would love to hear whether we're right or wrong. About that whole, taking them to the wipe it. Yeah, did you put some Vicks Vapo rub under your nose? Yeah. Did you fill up a rag with old spice, Cologne? Hahaha. Did you comment that when you pull them out of the water, there can be like all kinds

of twigs and leaves and things. The outtapsi just seems like not something you need in the future. They can scan all up and things, right? And this is now multiple times in season six where there's been some autopsy drama. I am a cutesy abhor. You will assist us. I am a cutesy abhor. You are a bore. They find the sledsker dead and they they found a dead sledsker in the trunk of the Previa. I feel like such a hack. This is why you changed his name. Mark's is a big step up from Slotsky. Yeah.

But, yeah, he's dead. There was like a plasma burst, and she really wants to do it. She's like, oh, let me get up in them guts too. And Picard is like, no, the friendies have a special death ritual. You can't get up in them guts. It's probably really embarrassing. Yeah. I mean, the outside of them is bad enough, but um the sarcophagus

looks like a giant q-tip. You know, for the ears. Yeah, I got what you were doing. We've achieved peak dad. It's very rare air here. Welcome to the greatest degeneration. A dad podcast. By a couple of guys who aren't even dads. And yet, we're clearly around too many dads. Yeah. Is that what it was? Like, we just spent a weekend at Max Funcon and there were like, like a lot of our elders

and mentors were there. Yeah, it didn't feel nearly as quippy. It might have been the altitude, but it might have just been like dad osmosis. Yeah, it's less quip more devastatingly bad pun. Less quip more khaki. That's the dial. From quip to khaki.

Yeah. I feel like the judge of the reality TV fashion show That's the dial. From Quip to Caggy. I feel like the judge of the reality TV fashion show would use that as their catchphrase. Yeah. I feel like somebody's gonna have to do an autopsy on this episode. It's extremely bad. But the thing that gives me comfort is knowing that this episode of the pod is not nearly as bad as the episode of the show. The doctor is up against this kind of impenetrable edict from Picard, which is you're not going to do an autopsy on no-forengy today. And so she like overrides it. She like goes ahead and does it, right? She breaks the law, right?

Like she goes ahead and does it, and then tells Picard she does it, and Picard is like, holy shit. Like you have really put me in a pickle here. Yeah, what does she say? She says like, Sean Duke, I want to tell you something that you need to know, but you're not gonna like it. Is that how you intro,

what you just did? She tells it to Picard like, I lied on my application to Starfleet when it asked if I'd ever smoked pot before. I know the conference room has a strict no beverage without a lid policy, but I spilled. I'm really sorry. She does not go into this conversation

with the appropriate amount. I'm casting you as a bit part in my next play. Yeah. Yeah. So she lays this pretty heavy shit on Picard, and he's like, well, there's not really much I can do about this other than you're fired, and there's like, well, there's not really much I can do about this other than you're fired and there's going to be a board of inquiry.

You're going to be on the ship until like 0700 tomorrow and we can drop you off at a star base so that the like Starfleet medical admiralty can punish you in the way that is appropriate for what you did because we have a lot to fit your crime. I mean, this would be like a diplomatic incident, right? Like mutilating the body of the premier scientist of another species. On paper, the stakes are high. Did you care at any moment? Hahaha.

I liked the, I liked the secret autopsy scene. I mean, like, there's some cool stuff in this episode. I liked that they had a morgue set. Yeah, that was fun. That was like, that was sort of a Murphy bed. Yeah, a morgue situation. Morgue Murphy bed. Yeah. That was good.

And the other like disappointing thing is that this autopsy turns up nothing. Like there's no, he still did. Yeah, like they're looking for, they're looking for something that they don't find. And so like the doctor, you know, we cut back to Gynon sitting with doctor and Gynon is like, so you don't have anything left to lose, right?

So go rogue, like do the fucking rest of the investigation as an independent contractor, which is terrible advice. It's bad advice and she chooses to involve Ogawa, like impossibly a career-threatening choice, Ogawa chooses to aid in a bit a known medical felon. Yeah, because it's not like, I'm going to keep doing what I was doing and if you happen to see what's going on on the screen over my shoulder, it's like, you'll need this file and this file. She's running printouts. She just got the back zip.

Why would she sacrifice her career for this? And not only that, do you think Oga was in line for the promotion of Beverly Gets Can? No, Oga was a nurse. Really? That's not how it works. I don't think so.

I don't think few promotions happen on this ship and I think she'd get promoted. I don't think nurse gets promoted to Dr. Thou. What about Dr. Salar or whatever? Like this is a doctor that we hear mentioned all the time. Maybe they keep that that cling on scientists around. Oh yeah, she'd make a fun doctor. She seems sharp. Yeah, but a pretty good bedside manner. Yeah, let her die Yeah, the doctor goes and interrogates this Klingon and and she's like did you rub out that for Angi?

This Klingon reacts very poorly to this line of questioning and Part of what that revealed as she got more and more impatient and opened her mouth wider and wider was that she did not have fucked up teeth. Oh no, I didn't notice that. She had human teeth. Is she like a Worf's wife's sister or something? Oh yeah. Maybe she's only half-cling on.

Yeah. Good see that. You know how attractive not full-lingons are to warf. Yeah. Yeah, he better watch himself around this lady. He could fall in love with her in like a minute. You know how he does. Yeah.

He calls too soon. Hmm. So Beverly sort of sees that she has nothing to lose Quite hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic, hypnotic related to in her career. And we've never heard her say word one about. She's willing to sacrifice everything to prove the theory. Maybe she's taken like a motherly interest on field theory, like Wesley is the Mozart of it. And like if your kid is like, you know, really good at ice hockey or something, you follow the league and stay abreast of it.

It's like my mom often knows what the weather is doing in New York better than I do because she's like interested in thinking about where I live and what's going on there. So maybe that's the head cannon. I just solved this episode out. If you need that much cannon to get through this. God. Hey man, I'm spread out after this weekend. I need a lot of cannon. She jakes a shuttle. I think Dr. Riga's shield does work. She flies into the pitcher.

It's next to the guacamole and the chips. I've never seen you look more disgusted. So refreshing. And she's like in the corona. She turns on the shield, everything's going great. Like they do the hilarious bit on the bridge where they're like, well there's nothing we can do about the fact that she has taken this shuttle. Yeah, they check all the boxes.

We can't do too far away box, too close to the sun for beaming. Can't take the ship any closer because we're too far away like that deal. Yeah, like that deal. Like the like... The one thing they could do is destroy the shuttle using a Worph's hair trigger finger on the photons. The doctor made her bed, you know? Yeah. Like, she's probably out of starfleet.

Do we really need to save her life? We're already wasting a bunk bed shuttle. Do we want to waste a torpedo on this one? I don't think so. Okay, fair enough. So there's the can in for that. Yeah. She gets into the corona and she's like,

this is going amazing. Like this fucking metaphysics shield just works. Like I don't even know what happened last time. It's a bunch of bullshit. And they're like, well, that's really incredible, doctor, but you have a trial. So why don't turn that little prever round and come right back and she's like all right well I'm about to do and then the radio cuts and from under an old-timey roll top desk comes Joe Brill. This is sort of classic

roll top desk made with quarter-sign white, with plenty of draw storage, and nice panels on the side. Crush it, Enterprise. I've lost you. The green man that we remember from dying the first time they ran this experiment. Enterprise, do you hear me? Come in. They cannot hear you. What they don't show you is how Joe Brill got the fuck out of his Murphy morgue and got into that roll top. He's supposed to be dead. Yeah, and she's like, you're supposed to be dead. She's like, how'd you get from the morgue into this roll top? And he's like, you did

an autopsy on me. You got up in them guts. You saw how I work. You know what we just did. Then we did the episode because we described it and then we described it again. Yeah, that was the joke. Yeah. Thank you for putting another hat on that stack of hats, Adam. I'm getting light-headed. It's like that children's book with the monkeys and the hats.

Oh yeah. And the hats for sale. Is that what it is? I think it's what it's called. Caps for sale. Uh, we get corrected from outside the box. Usually we have to wait until the next day on Twitter or whatever. Yeah. We'll get our 20 email corrections. That was a Max Fun Zone Nick Lee out. Very kindly operating the board for us here today. We have wasted hours of his time today that he could have been doing much more productive stuff. I'm sure anything would be better than this for him. The green man, Joe Brill, starts kind of

monologuing. And he's like, yeah, well, you know, the Frankie wanted this to be a metaphysics shield, but I have killed him so that I can steal his technology and, uh, or no, uh, he didn't kill him, right? Who killed him? Joe Brill killed him. Yeah. Joe Brill, uh, Joe Brill sabotaged the thing. Yeah. And, uh, it's going to let him, like, go develop this this this metaphysics shield into a weapon and That is all bad because everybody knows that the Tacarrons are nothing but trouble You get to see a dead for Engie this episode. Yeah, and it goes all like he gets all like it gets real ashy, huh? and it goes all like, he gets all like, it gets real ashy, huh? Yeah, it looks like they rolled him in like ranch dressing before they put him in the Murphy bed.

He's a real ashy ringy. Oh God, Ed. The hate mail that we get on this one, we will deserve. Yeah. He's so gross. Yeah, he looks gross when he's dead. Um, he, he's explained his evil plan and uh, roundhouse Beverly is having none of it.

So she throws the controls into a twirl and he flies against the bulkhead. She does some like really serious foot to the face kicking here. She does some real solid deep background martial arts to the foreground antagonist. Which is what you want to do with someone who's not seasoned as a martial artist. Yeah, get six feet of separation between kicker and kicker. There will be no accidents on this set. And he goes down and she manages to get the deskbuster away from him. And she puts it on death becomes her mode.

Yeah. Because she, she said, phasers for Middler. I have a hole in my stomach. Was it Goldie Han, Bett Middler, and... Was Bruce Willis in that movie? Yeah, as the squirrely little Butler guy, right? Was he the one that held the candle

opera through her on the the on the poster? Yeah. Well, Joe, Joe Brill, Joe Brill goes full bet. And the doctor is not satisfied with that. So she dials it up to gore and vaporizes. Yeah. And she flies the prev out of the sun. And she's like, hey guys, I have great news. flies the prev out of the Sun and

She's like hey guys, I have great news. I'm not I'm not the baddie that you thought I was It was Joe Brill the entire time and what Captain Picard probably should have said is well Yes, Beverly, but be that as it may you did do an autopsy on somebody who's expressed wishes of their family was not to do an autopsy. And that's not really... Like nothing that's happened here in the last 15 minutes has really done anything to undo that. Proving your innocence for a crime at the top of the stream. Does not forgive the concurrent crimes. The list of crimes that you committed to get to the innocence. Yeah.

If only that were the case, that would be amazing. Free crime. Yeah. I robbed a bank because I needed to pay off a debt that I was being framed for or something. She's getting deferential treatment from Picard, and I don't think it's right. She gets reinstated.

Yeah. Yeah. Heads down to 10 forward and pays a guy in a visit and she's got a little gift for a guy in. Say, space racket. And, uh, and guy in it's like, oh, I don't play that fucking. I don't play that shit. Yeah.

I don't mean don't play that. You think I want to play a game with Jordy? I've got, I already play a game with Jordy. It's called Stay Away From Jordy. That was my one dorm McDonald's Star Trek joke. That was a great, that was a great dorm McDonald's joke. The setup and the punchline are the same. Yep. Does that make up for my terrible joking throughout this episode?

I hope it makes up for some of mine. In the same way that Beverly Crime at the end forgives earlier Beverly Crime. And that's the episode. Did you like it, Adam? This may be recency bias. This is my least favorite episode I've ever seen. What? I fucking hated this episode.

What a waste. What a waste. I watched this next to you on a chez long. I was stewing. No one stews on a chez lounge, outside poolside. Yeah. In sunny Los Angeles, California. We literally fired this up on the lake. No one stews on a shays lounge outside poolside. In sunny Los Angeles, California. We literally fired this up on the laptop

and watched it poolside. And that wasn't enough to make Adam like it. It was the most telling and least showing episode of the series. You were just looking back and forth between the screen and the water, screen and the water, screen and the water, screen and the water. Bad star tricks on the screen, shocks in the water.

All right, shock. And when the laptop goes black, he's gotcha. You see your reflection and then the black mirror. Like a dull screen. So stupid. Yeah, really bad. You just reundid your all of your good joke will. I'm back in joke jail.

Yeah. Really bad episode, Ben. It's on the mountain for me, and it may be the number one position on the mountain. It's in your George Washington on Mount Armist's position. Yeah. Wow. I would not put it on my Mount Armist.

I think it's not a great ep, but well, the exposition is exposition. Yeah. Well, here's the thing. Is it takes a big swing? And the thing that I admire about the ep is that they were like, let's think about what scientists from cultures that seem antithetical to science might look like. I don't think that they achieved much, but it's like they are asking the same questions

that I'm asking as a viewer. And like, well, they kind of whiffed this. Like it gives me some confidence in the motives of the writing staff. So while I think it's a failed episode, I don't like hate its guts. One thing that may have informed my cynicism about the app was that this is Guy Nen's last appearance on the show. Really?

And it made me think that they were going to tell the story linearly because they could have. And the only reason they didn't was to include Geinen in the story. She always gets kind of written in at the last minute, right? Yeah. And I think that does her character and whoopee a huge disservice, I think. Was that whoopee? It was. So you said... Yes, whew-waiting. Why are you saying it like that?

Well, I'm just saying you should be nice at a Whil-Whitin Yeah, what a way to go out. Yeah made me sad One of the greats. Yeah RSVP whoopi Do we have any priority ones see who play I think we do Priority one message from star fleet coming in on secured channel Need a supplement on top of the month. Top of the month? Top of the month. Top of the month.

Yes, extra. The interest alone could be enough to buy this ship. And my first priority one message here is a personal message and it is from your fellow NPR nerd. And it is for, let's's just say my wife's tattoo artist and it goes like this. You spoke of this show during my wife's George the goat tattoo. To thank you for the hours of laughter I'd like to reward you with Simpa Cosby. I know however it hurts Ben's voice so instead please replay the intro from the show where Ben almost died impersonating Prakazby. I laughed so hard

I almost wrecked my truck May it do the tattoo equivalent to you. Wow Well, I don't remember which episode that was in particular and You know like it's it's gonna be a kind of a special occasion to dig up a drop So why don't we just do some Prakazby? What do you say? We haven't done Pocosby in a little while Maybe my voice has recovered somewhat When you drive it down the road Given tattoos

You got to make sure that nothing gets into the drink that you had before you get behind the wheel You don't want to operate heavy machinery When your psychologically compromise you sleep before you get behind the wheel, you don't want to operate heavy machinery when you're psychologically compromised. You'll sleep. Rudy. Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe I did that very little bit of Pekazvi, and it feels like someone slashed across my throat. That is not a comfortable impression. We are going to a- Not a number of levels. We're going to a little tweet-up later today,

and I will probably be having a tough time talking to our viewers, IRL, because of this. They have certain expectations, W-slash-r-slash-t, U- and Pekazvi. Pekazvi. Did I understand that correctly? People are getting tattooed while listening to our program, or they're just telling their tattoo artist about the program. I think that the tattoo artist told the person getting the tattoo, and then she told her husband, and he likes the show so much that he got a P1. Woah!

Woah! Ben, our second priority one message is also of a personal nature. It is from Chris. It is for Sonia. Goes like this, hey babe. Happy 9th anniversary. Although Star Trek was not one of our three Bs, I'm sure we had to have mentioned it at least once on that fateful night in Vegas.

Hopefully we don't finish our slow trek through Deep Space 9 before Adam and Ben move on to that series. Can't wait to hear what they say about that intro. Love you. I wonder how accurate you're our impression of this person you've never met is. I just did a lovely Debbie Chris impression. Yeah Chris is probably way cooler than that you kind of had the voice of the of the guy that Pete Holmes's wife is cheating on him. Yeah, I love that guy I love that guy so much. Yeah like guy who you to hate, but winds up being like such a chill dude. Yeah, he just really cares about your well-being or whatever.

Oh. Can that guy be in the new Star Trek show? Yes, please cast him. Please cast him in stuff. Just an overly emotional chill hang. Yeah, that's it, the future needs. Put some loaf on that fucker. Let's get this on.

Hahaha. If you have a message you want to put some loaf on, you can go to maximumfund.org slash jumbo-tron. Personal messages are $100 and commercial messages are $200 and they are a great, if not the greatest way to help the ongoing production of our program. Indeed Adam. A greatest-gen live show is something you don't want to miss. Why?

Well, it's a great opportunity to see me and Ben in person, but that's not all. FODs from all over gather at these shows to cosplay, to do pre and post show hangs, to make friends, and share their embarrassment. Hey, let's make a pretty great name for a tour. Let's do it. The Share Your Embarrassment Tour is coming in August 2023, and we've got a bunch of dates in a lot of great places. Go to GreatestGenTour.com to get more info.

That's GreatestGenTour.com for dates and ticketing information for the Share Your Embarrassment Tour. I'm Jordan Morris. And I'm Jesse Thorne. On Jordan Jesse Go, we make pure, delightful nonsense. We were open awesome guests and bring them down to our level. We got stupid with Judy Greer. My friend Molly and I call it having the spaceweards.

Pat Noswald. Could I get a Balrog burger and some air-gorn fries? Thank you. And Kumail Nanjiani. I've come back with cat toothbrushes, which is impossible to use. Come get stupider with us at MaximumFun.org. Look, your podcast apps are already open. Just pull it out. Give Jordan Jesse Goat try. Being smart is hard. Be dumb instead.

He opens his bullet out, give Jordan Jesse Goat dry. Being smart is hard, be dumb instead. Oh, rats, hey, hey, oh, I'm about to count you in mine. These clouds are really freaking me out. I hate having to stand in line. And boy, what do I? These giraffes do not smell good. No, they do not, and they've such short nacks. But I'm hearing we need to get on this horse.

We've got to get on the ark. It is about terrain, about a spout to destroy humanity. Hey, oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. Are you Noah? Yeah, I know we look like humans, but we're actually probably our podcasters. We are podcasters, so it's different. Have you heard of Ono Ross and Kerry?

We investigate spirituality, claims of the paranormal, stuff like that. And you have a boat and say the world's going to end, so same like something for us to check out. We would love to be on the boats. We came two by two. What do you think? O'Neil Ross and Kerry, available on MaximumFun.org.

[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪ [♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪ Hey Ben. What's that, Adam? Adam was going to ask Ben if he had a drunk Shimoda. Hey Ben, do you have a drunk Shimoda? Drunk Shimoda. Ben thought about it, saying, yes, he has a drunk Shimoda. Hey band, do you have a drunk Shimoda? Drunk Shimoda. Ben thought about it, saying, yes, he has a drunk Shimoda. Then he decided to go ahead and say, yes, I have a drunk Shimoda. Yes, Adam, I have a drunk Shimoda. And it's

a Dr. Crusher. She comes in and gives Gain in this racket, and it's like, Doc, like we know the game Gain in place. She comes and finds you when you need her. Yeah. You needed her. She just came in with a fucking pretext. That she doesn't actually, like how can you play tennis when you're busy fighting swords with Captain Picard? Beverly comes home from work,

super pissed and aggravated, puts in one of those like personal size red baron pizzas into the microwave. The bar' appears. Yeah. Yeah. Man, obscure pizza commercial joke premises. One of our most underappreciated joke premises, Adam.

Really given the people what they don't want or understand. I like the disjorn, though, because the crust rises in the oven. It's a bit of a party trick, want or understand. particularly acute. It's not delivery. It's Dejorno. Ben, I'm giving my Shimoda to Joe Brill for a moment of acting excellence. So they're both in the shuttle at the end. He's popped out of the desk like a green jack in the box. Beverly has sort of like grabbed the steering wheel roller ball thing and is like rung the steering wheel around three times to throw it off balance. Joe Braille does the thing that you see in some early 90s rap videos like the people doing the like elbows and hands move. He sort of like goes like elbows and hands up and then flies into the wall. It is very bad physical acting. It is perfect for a

Shimota nomination. Joe Brill gets my Shimota. Because they definitely don't have that privy set up on like an actuator where they can make it flop around. It's a camera move and just like throw your body. Yeah. Yeah, it's like that, there's that video or that gif that shows like a banger getting dropped on the enterprise and it's steady, like the camera doesn't move and it's people just sort of like wrapping their seat and rocking. Yeah.

This was that maneuver, except he was standing up. I love to, I mean like either of us could do this is isolate that clip and stabilize the camera. Yeah. It'd be pretty fun to watch Joe Brill take a dive. Yeah, someone, someone stabilize Joe Brill. Shmo to dive on Joe Brill. What do we have coming up on the next episode, Ben?

Oh, I... Please, please tell me it's better than this one. The next episode of Star Trek is season six episode 23, rightful air. War finds his faith sorely tested when it appears that the greatest cling on warrior of all time has returned from the dead to reclaim the Empire. Do you remember this episode Adam? This is, this is Kayless Livs right? Yeah. I do remember this episode Adam? This is... This is K-Lis lives, right? Yeah.

I do remember this episode, this fun. Yeah. It's the uh... It's the episode where... Unfrozen caveman K-Lis. I was gonna say it's the episode where Keith David and Roddy Piper fight next to a dumpster. For a little too long. K-Lis lives. right next to a dumpster for a little too long.

Kayla's lives. Oh man, just thinking about that scene gives me so much joy. So glad I could do that for you Adam. Thanks. Well, we don't have any vetoes, so we will be watching that. And that will be what we review next time here on the greatest generation.

Hmm. People who for some reason like what we've done here can support the ongoing production of our show by going to Maximumfund.org slash Donate, other forms of support include buying a shirt or some glassware or seeing us out on tour. Yeah, come out, see our tour. As this recording, there's still some ticks available, so hopefully you can jump on that. If you've got any questions or concerns, you can email them to drunksamota at gmail.com. If you've got any praise to heap on us, you can go to iTunes and leave a nice review. Hope people find the show.

We've got the greatest gen hashtag on Twitter, greatest gen Facebook group, greatest gen wikia, greatest gen Reddit. All kinds of greatest gen stuff. Greatest gen phone number, greatest gen, the lunch box, greatest gen the flame thrower. Greatest gen the fire box. Yeah. Greatest Jen the Flamethrower. Greatest Jen the Fireman Tat. We should put that up on the Max Fun Star, that would be good.

We should thank Adam or Goosey, who has made tons and tons of custom music for our program over the year in a bit that we've been doing it. We should thank Dark Materia for our theme song. We gotta thank Nick Leeia for our theme song. Gotta thank Nick Lee Owl for running the boards on this bad boy. Yeah. I'd appreciate it.

And the kind folks at MaximumFun.org who have opened their homes to a couple of dingolings like us coming in here, farting up the booth, recording a couple of Star Trek shows on very short notes. So thanks. I feel like we're finally one of them now. It's like performing in a theater and signing the backstage area with like your part, like now that I've farted in the studio.

Feels like, feels right. Feels like I'm really one of them now. One of us. Well, let that we will be back at you next time with another great episode of Star Trek the Next Generation, and an episode of the greatest generation that looks down somberly at Worf's Faith, and then raises his head to the heavens to warn that a warrior's faith is coming. Make it, make it, make it sound. Make it sound. Make it sound.

Make it sound. Your loop, the god of god of god of god of god of god of god. If only I had done a normal McDonald joke, I would be a... I would be forgiven. I would be innocent as well.
