S1: Episode 4: Yeah, We're Not Touching This Episode With a 10 ft Pole, Just Skip to Episode 5

Start Trek

YIKES.
We recorded an entire episode for "Code of Honor," the episode between "The Naked Now" and "The Last Outpost."
We aren't going to say this TNG episode didn't age well, because it should not have been made in the first place! To be honest, it was tough finding the humor in such a crappy episode - that's not just us saying it, Riker's actor has called it "a piece of sh**."
It doesn't add (in fact it super detracts) any value or character development, and I wasn't confused going into the next episode, so if you're a newbie, I vote you save yourself 45 minutes and watch Westworld instead. #savewestworld
In any case, we decided the best thing to do is to just move on to "The Last Outpost." So we're uploading that today!
We recorded a five minute clip with more details in lieu of our episode, if you're curious.

We have another podcast called Anecdotes for Awkward Folks if you like bizarre historical stories, so give it a listen if that sounds appealing! Thanks for listening!
