Join us for our 100th episode extravaganza as we discuss that movie which celebrated the 30th anniversary of this thing we call Trek: First Contact! Mac may have a little Spanish immersion thing going on for a bit, but really we talk about the Roddenberry/Cochrane parallels, the conspiracy theories that must abound regarding the flight crew of the Phoenix, Worf having a legitimate reason for seeing his friends, Schweitzer! (that’s his name until he comes up with another one, so says Canyon), and Lora tries to set Mac up on a grown-up play date with Tom Hanks (it is, surprisingly, on topic). This all leads to three very important questions: 1) Just why do the Borg need it so hot? 2) What would you show an alien to communciate you mean no harm? and 3) What song do you play as you’re blasting off into space? And why is the answer to all three Steppenwolf’s Magic Carpet Ride?
