Listeners, Alice and Skyler are back... but not to discuss a DS9 episode. This week, they're covering the completely controversy-free Strange New Worlds puppet one-off, season four, episode five, "Level-Five Transporter Accident." Topics include the very chill reaction to this fun, riff-y Star Trek outing, Alice and Skyler running into each other out on the big LA streets, men checking out sandwich photos, coincidental hoods, Carol Kane's wonderful pasta hair, what, exactly, Strange New Worlds' deal is in the broader Star Trek timeline, their idea for Back to the Future Four, and much, much more! Listen!!
