Episode 228: The Drumhead

David and Holly continue to look back on Picards character in preparation for the all new Picard Series coming to CBS in 2020. This episode shows how Picard is treated by the Federation following his Borg assimilation and recovery, but also his reaction to how he is treated. Picard basically admits to being “damaged” goods in this episode, so is he better or worse for his experience with the borg?

Episode 227: Family With Guy Davis

We are joined by the talented Guy Davis of the Rocky Mountain Geek Tank podcast and the Star Trek webcomic USS Tamerlane. This episode of Synthaholics we return to the streets of Jean-Luc Picard’s hometown La Barre, France. Picard tries to heal from his assimilation to the Borg by returning to his house that he grew up in. We will meet his brother Robert. We will explore why Robert and Jean-Luc’s relationship is filled with animosity. Guy and Aaron discuss the meanings behind Picard returning home and the psychology behind it.

Episode 225: Even More Picard

The Syntaholics continue on in their quest to discover what may have lead Picard to leave Starfleet. A look into “The Defector” and “Offspring” may have proven useful, as they show a captain who both carefully contemplates federation rules and regulations while also challenging authority if he deems it necessary, and of course more Data. This week, continue the trek with Aaron and Holly, and for a more detailed discussion on The Offspring, look to Episode 119 of the Synthaholics Podcast featuring Michele Specht of Star Trek Continues.

Episode 224: Pondering Picard… A TWOFER!

August 4, 2019 DaviddAarono

Episode 224: Pondering Picard… A TWOFER!

The mission this week is to discuss two episodes from TNG that have already been discussed in the past, because we believe they may ready us for what is to come. “The Measure of a Man” and “Who Watches the Watchers” are episodes that deal with Picards moral standings, his integrity, his dedication to his crew, and shows that he is willing to go toe-to-toe with the Federation if he feels it necessary. This is the third episode in a series of investigations into Picard, in hopes of getting us inside Jean-Luc’s head before the much anticipated series airs in 2020…

For deeper discussions on these two episodes, enjoy Episode 143: The Measure of a Man with Kipleigh Brown, and Episode 174: Who Watches the Watchers with Robbie Palmer.

Episode 223: The Battle

Picard… The final frontier…

These are the Voyages of the Starship Synthahol.
The second adventure in their new Mission:

To explore the inner psyche of one Jean-Luc Picard…
To look to the past; To predict the future…

To inappropriately go where no one has gone before…

Hah! Sorry, it had to be done. This week the gang discusses another Picard episode in hopes to re familiarize themselves with Jean-Luc before the premiere of Star Trek: Picard! “Battle” shows us a time in Picards career where he had to abandon ship, and now he is reliving the event but he may not be coping well with it. Stand-by, and enjoy this week’s episode paired with a niiiiiiice parfait…

Episode 222: Where Silence has Lease

This week Aaron and Holly chase their tails, much like Captain Picard and the crew of the USS Enterprise in Where Silence takes Lease. This episode has us thinking about the observation, treatment, and judgment of others- and a lot of side chat that hopefully we managed to tack onto the end of this episode.

Episode 192: Realm of Fear

Arron, Holly, and David are back this week to talk the TNG Episode Realm of Fear! No Star Trek news this week but the next Short Trek will be out before we record next week so we should of that to talk about next week. Realm of Fear is one of the Next Generation Episodes that features Dwight Schultz as Barclay! Barclay is one of our favorite recurring characters in Star Trek, so it’s about time we do an episode that is all about him.

In this episode we learn Barclay has an extreme and possibly irrational fear of being transported. Barclay must overcome his fears to help solve the mystery about what happened to the USS Yosemite. Because this episode focuses on his fear that seems to be on the irrational side we get into a discussion on what some of our irrational fears are! Pour yourself a drink that will help calm your nerves it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 171: The Ballad of Thomas Riker

June 26, 2018 DaviddAarono

Episode 171: The Ballad of Thomas Riker

What happens when transporter accidents don’t kill you? Aaron and David are here to recount the ballad of Thomas Riker. Some fates are worse than death, like being stuck alone for 8 years to find out that you actually did make it out. You could also be pining for a woman for 8 years just to find out she only wants to be friends. Or you could steal the most advanced federation warship and then turn yourself over to the Cardassians to work the rest of your days in a labor camp. You could also be promised a daring rescue by a woman who forgets about you when she falls in love with a changeling. The Ballad of Thomas Riker is one paved with much sorrow and regret!

But before we jump into Star Trek The Next Generation episode “Second Chances” and the DS9 episode “Defiant” we have some more exciting star trek news to talk about! You may wipe the sweat from your brow no animated series episode today! Pour yourself a double of whatever you are drinking, it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!
