Brother Date

Mummies alive! What a show we have for you this week. We get into the deep and dirty about Egypt's 18th Dynasty, sport in Scandinavia, the cutting edge of necrobotics, and we recommend many useful Twitter accounts. All that and a rousing edition of State Flags, only on Brother Date!

We open up about sex while discussing this week's Voyager . Tasty tidbits abound. We also reminisce about the cool-factor terrorism had pre-9/11. That's a DS9 staple. Finally, does anybody know any facts about Belarus, either present-day or 300 years in the future? It's important for this week's TNG . All that and little more on the latest Brother Date .

Ok, I'm willing to come to the negotiating table re: a curse. Is there a curse? Maybe. Do I believe in the power of a curse? If I believe there may be one, then why not? Is THIS informational website cursed? Make your case. I'm all ears. This week we talk climate, old-school footballers, and the great hero, Tuebor. Brother Date ... it's probably cursed!

On this week's Brother Date ... The First Minister slums it, Seven goes to a family reunion, and Troi finally spills the beans about her powers.  Listen to it and know what it means to feel regret.

Matthew is overcome by powerful memories of New England, Judah looks at the Brother Date website for the first time in years, and Ryan fails to send a useful Tweet. Also, flags are back in a big way. What do you like about them, and should we keep them? A robust discussion in our State Flags tournament. All this and more on this week's Brother Date !

I swear to balls, when I find out who's been spreading rumors about the podcast, saying we're cursed and that we'll never be able to finish the Star Trek project, and maybe one of is purposely sabotaging the pod, I'm going to RUIN YOU. You don't say those things about this podcast. We've worked so hard to come back and you just want to shit all over us and our fine work. This podcast is going plac...

-EPISODE 234- It has been a year since the podcast went on hiatus. Matthew, now a father, has decided to finally tell everybody what he thinks about Star Trek: Voyager. Judah, having finally unlocked the secrets of the "New Computer", can't get a certain song out of his head. Evil is everywhere. There are heroes on both sides. As the two intrepid podcasters meet again to discuss just what the hell...

A remote diagnosis of an aging baseballer is attempted in this week's mailbag segment, before we talk about what felt like 150 terrible state and provincial flags. That doesn't sound amazing, I know, but give Brother Date a listen and seize your chance at seeing history.

Three requests for Brother Date listeners this week: 1) Name your favorite alien stereotype from the universe of Star Trek . 2) Tell us your favorite place to stop for a meal on the way to or from Yosemite. 3) We want to know the horniest you've ever been while playing a video game OR watching an episode of Star Trek . Send your answers to us on Twitter @brotherdate and thanks for playing!

What happens if you try to post your favorite home-made six-nine on the IG? Of what video game crimes is hot steering-wheel-boy Lewis Hamilton guilty? We speculate irresponsibly in the mailbag segment. Then it's on to State Flags, in which we learn multiple states passed on quite some time ago, and we celebrate the purple mountains marbled majesty in Montana. Brother Date does, as of now, receive...

Nobody's perfect, and once you admit that to somebody they can no longer legally punish you for crimes past, according to DS9 . Also, can somebody just look up the results of the 77th damn Emperor's Cup so Voyager's bridge crew can go back to doing their damn jobs? Finally, is it insensitive to yell at your friend's weird kid if he's being totally uncool in an emergency situation? Asking for a fri...

An enlightening interview via Twitter with our number one fan. Also, what can North Dakota do to compete with the awesome power of South Dakota's famous landmark, "The Big Smokestack by the River"? Brother Date ! It's that good a podcast!

"Debauchery. Lack of prayer in schools. Weather control. These are the true threats to the Federation. Join me, Pascal Fullerton, and my New Essentialists for an informal chat under the light of the Tiki torch. We'll discuss all of the ways in which you can help us strengthen the Federation, such as     " Also, why did Nazis love art so much? Finally, what's the best name you can come up with for...

Fort Nas-T, a well known Crime Capital has been ruled by violence and death for many years. A fact which the newly elected Mayor and former Street Fighter, Judah, plans to change. Sometime in the 2020's... Ring ring. "Hello, Judah here." "Yo Noah, what's up. We yanked your podcast. Actually, turn on the TV. I-I want to deliver the second half of this message VISUALLY. The phone call was just to ge...

In this week's fully loaded mailbag, one contributor experiences the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. Then we bust out our magnifying glasses for another round of "find the liberty cap." Did we succeed? Find out on this week's Brother Date .

The research says this week's Voyager came in ten minutes under but that's never a problem for Brother Date . Flashbacks, dreams, time warps, and schemes this week in the Trek universe.  Also, Butter Ben is back! Is he angling for Matt's job? Listen and find out.

In this week's mailbag, we once again threaten to cancel the mailbag segment. We play a spirited round of Quiz Time For Ryan in which we attempt to ascertain what celebrities actually value their own time. Finally, we talk about excellent video games only ( Max Payne, Excitebike , you get the picture). Brother Date! It's apparently NOT contagious!

Look, we were on the same page this week. We both remember Steve Urkel's female cousin's name. We both remember her middle name. We both know who the worst actor on Voyager was this week. We both know too much about the O'Briens' private lives. We both know who covered themselves in glory on TNG this week. We were in perfect sync this week. We are the real "Dream Team." No collusion. Total exonera...

The podcast finally stops pretending and becomes what it was always meant to be, this week on Brother Date .

It's a very special episode with a moderately special guest! Don't look at the episode title and spoil it for yourself, dummy. You always do that. You always spoil everything for yourself. Why do you read the Wikipedia plot description during the opening scenes of the movie? Why? How can it be better when you already know what's going to happen? Anyway, there is definitely a spectrum of naivete th...

Mailbag is LIIIIIIGHT so we take a request from a friend that was definitely NOT directed at us and run with it like Michael Johnson scoring a touchdown from way downtown. This episode is tagged "BTS" so we'll see what the mailbag looks like next time. I'm sure ARMY will be totally cool about everything that happens in here. Catch the vibes on Brother Date .

You ever get a stern talking-to from an elder sibling and just have to go play in the sandbox for a minute to keep your cool? Have you ever met a kindly old man who is super chill and never raises his voice but also ruins your entire existence with his words? If you did a bad enough mess-up do you think you could theoretically grow a mullet and do crimes? We try to answer these questions and more...

Which was the better festival, Jeffery's or Landru's? Despite spending hundreds of hours thinking about it in the last few years, Matt can't seem to remember anything about Star Trek. But he goes so deep on Stevie Wonder's 1972 masterpiece Music of My Mind that we assume your asses will very much be put to sleep. Send us mail. Review our podcast. Recommend it to celebrities.

Who is Jeff Arton and what crimes has he actually committed? Why are big old planets so dang hard to see? Finally, there's a new place in the Gamma Quadrant that the DS9 gang needs to check out because it's one of those restaurants that serves, like, everything? Like, the menu is 80 pages and all of the food is kind of bad but you'll probably find something you THINK you'll like. So, they maybe ho...

A champion is crowned in the first annual Shannon's Fruit Bracket (2021).  Matt stuffed the mailbox this time around because all of the listeners are such weasels it's not even funny. Social Distortion was one key ingredient shy of being a huge success in the 1990s. Find out what that was on this week's Brother Date !
