Episode 58 Frog Men And A Con Man

A Star to Steer Her By

It's a "first appearances" week on SSHB! First up, the Ferengi step out of the foreshadows in "The Last Outpost," and oh boy they are NOT exactly the cool new enemies they were made out to be. After that, we first meet The Traveler in the guise of the assistant to warp propulsion "expert" Kosinski, who claims his incomprehensible equations can upgrade the warp efficiency of the "Enterprise" in "Where No One Has Gone Before." Things don't go great. And then they get worse when Wesley gets a job on the bridge. Also this week: even "Enterprise"-D security is shoddy, everyone's favorite TNG character, and Wesley's obvious lack of friends. Content warning: Yar's rape gangs make another appearance, and we discuss some real-world sexual harassment that happened during TNG's production Timestamps: synopses: 0:53; The Last Outpost: 8:22; Where No One Has Gone Before: 35:45
