431. Star Trek: The Next Futurama 15 - Brannigan, Begin Again
Added 2021-10-26 13:00:06 +0000 UTC
As always, our hosts find and compare a corresponding Star Trek: The Next Generation with the aforementioned Futurama episode which jumpstarts a conversation about, you know, whatever. They discuss neutral zones, the shared trauma of soldiers, life as a cruel joke of perception, and the fine line between dignity and justice. They also tell us their favorite jokes from the Futurama episode!
This show exclusively releases every other episode here on the Small Beans patreon. Wimmy Wam Wam Wozzle!

I’m a Volcano vape guy now. And small joints every now and then.

2023-02-15 21:39:48 +0000 UTCI always wondered if Gul Dukat was named after gold ducats, the coins. It's such a strong homonym

2021-10-30 22:18:00 +0000 UTCSometimes the preshow is a whole show on its own. Thanks for the dank smoke talk Dave and Mike. I quit less than 2 weeks ago and am dealing with withdrawal symptoms which I didn't even know was a thing! Hearing y'alls low energy addiction laments and intents helped immensely. I needed some of that bitter before the sweet sweet chocolate pod. ❤

2021-10-29 15:31:28 +0000 UTCI do think the holodeck is the inevitable end of history. Like if you look at 40 years of video game development from Pong to Red Dead 2 and then you add 1,000 years... it seems like video game that perfectly simulates real life and you just live in that your whole life is the future. Like once everyone is in the holo deck where theres no scarcity, no disease, all violence is simulated and not real why would you not just do that forever? Why try to explore space when you can just be a space wizard with faster than life travel and interesting stories in the entirely realistic video game? This is why I think we will never encounter aliens because once you advance sufficiently to have this technology you just stay in the simulation forever. Why wouldnt you?

2021-10-27 21:18:36 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed the loose horseshit up top. I also quit drinking a while back and am still working on improving myself in other ways, very similar to what you guys said you're going through. I wouldn't mind another tales from the pit on substance abuse, or like a "where are they now" kind of thing about Michael or David or any past guest's story. On that note, I also really enjoy every episode with Vanessa Guerrero, I think you asked about that a while back.

2021-10-26 21:14:02 +0000 UTCNo push for kicking Hermes? I feel he's got less good story threads than Amy as far as the main characters

2021-10-26 20:08:50 +0000 UTCOh and like to add someone who hasnt been a guest before, but Matt Lieb and Vince Mancini are really good.

2021-10-26 18:31:07 +0000 UTCI know its late on this but I only listened to Unforgiven today, so please allow me to say the best guest is professional podcast guest Jason Pargin. Like make him do a once a month podcast behind a $25 dollar tier and I would pay that. Not sure anyone else would. But I would.

2021-10-26 18:29:59 +0000 UTCMy favorite Cracked TV delivery/joke was "Now this is only available in the south and since I'm not allowed back there no more"
