“Starfleet Academy” finishes the end of its first season with the conclusion of numerous plot lines, a lot of character moments, and some problem solving. We discuss how this episode worked, the season as a whole, and how “Starfleet Academy” builds on the shows that came before it. See you again when “Strange New Worlds” returns!

From the space-time weirdness of Kasq to the stage of “Our Town,” it’s a “Starfleet Academy” episode where theater helps process trauma and a certain hologram learns to love again. Oh, and Tilly shows up, reminding us why she’s a top-tier Star Trek character. Come join us in our little one-act play, or as we call it, a podcast.

Get out your space swiffers and prepare to visit the Dry Moon of the Fish People! It’s time to discuss the change-of-pace episode “Ko’Zeine,” which we found to be… fine. If this is the baseline for “Starfleet Academy,” that’s good news, but we do have some thoughts on all the ways this episode failed to rise above being perfectly cromulent. We do love that Warp Slug, though.

This one gets pretty dark, with a training mission that goes horribly wrong, leading to casualties. Meanwhile, Holly Hunter watches Paul Giamatti chew scenery (in the best possible way). Plus, don’t forget the YA-mandatory and story-arc-relevant sexy times!

This week the fate of The Sisko is revealed, sort of, as Sam investigates one of the great mysteries of the universe: What exactly happened in the “Deep Space Nine” series finale? More than a nostalgia trip, it’s a story that sets one of the “Starfleet Academy” characters on a new course. Plus: Our boy Kyle is back!

The Klingons are back, and they’re not doing so hot! We discuss debate etiquette, podiums, who writes The Doctor’s introductions, and maybe a little cultural imperialism, Federation style.

Like a mocking plant that just keeps growing, Vulcan Hello returns to break down the latest episode of “Starfleet Academy.” Why don’t they just play basketball? Why does Holly Hunter love furniture?
