Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast

Feelin' groggy and out of it after last night?   Can't find your wallet and can't remember who you are?   Let Jaxilly be your totem!   Jack, Barm and Geoff find themselves stranded on a Rigel (VI or VII, can't remember), but one thing they'll never forget is how to prattle on about Star Trek as well as the topical issues of the day, like the Succession finale and Cillian Murphy's penis in Oppenhei...

Barm and Jack celebrate Canada Day the only ways they know of: having Barm be Canadian, talking about low-rent Canadian whiskies manufactured primarily for sale in the US, and of course, discussing La'an' and Alt-Alt Kirk's wonderful little adventure to modern-day to Toronto to have a little fling, meet Carol Kane, and stop a Romulan from fucking up the tortured and incomprehensible Khan and Eugen...

Una's on trial, but so is this season two episode of STRANGE NEW WORLDS, and Jack, Sam and Barm are judge, jury, and executioner of this (relatively) new entry in the canon of TREK. COURTROOM. DRAMAS.   Throw yourself on the mercy of the podcast, or you'll find yourself guilty of not having good taste.

Jaxilly is finally BACK for the second season of STRANGE NEW WOOOOOORRLLLDS, and to celebrate Jack has got Barm and Richard Dunham (Akira Minute, Ghibli Minute) along for the ride.  While there ARE a few things in this episode give them pause, they·re pumped to inject some super podcasting drugs, and gibber about stone faces, Klassic Klingons, how much Jack HATES the Irish, the greater Tokyo metro...

The Enterprise Cats venture out on their first away mission, and Jack is along once again to go where no Enterprise Dawg has gone before! Barm shares harrowing memories of watching this episode for the first time, Sam recalls seeing a familiar face during the new Anaconda movie, Jack shares his Krennic impression, and the whole gang begins their first MayWatch.

Those Enterprise Cats are back, and they're talking Hoshi! Barm shares Bat Facts, Sam introduces The Enterprise Bat, and Jack makes his second appearance on the cast to talk about how annoying all these characters are.

Jack welcomes Those Enterprise Cats to his feed for their maiden voyage with Enterprise! Barm talks about the Maxim Era, Sam puts on a fashion show, and none of us can get enough of Dr. Phlox and a Klingon in cornfield. 

Jack and Kregg get drunk and talk about TALES OF THE JEDI, the HOT 2022 little Star Wars Clone Wars-like thing that everybody STILL cannot stop talking about in 2026!   Does Dooku rule?   Does Asohka drool?   How drunk ARE these guys?   Is Jack gonna say "A SITH LORD?" like Sam Jackson?   What IS the Sebastian Equation?   Give yourself to the drunk side!

Christmas excitement is in the air, and Carlos is in rare form as he excitedly waits for his special Yuletide guests, the Star Trek captains, to come and answer all his questions about Star Trek Scouts!

Sam and Sean fly ALL the way to Japan to sit in Jack (Stovold, not Crusher)'s living room to talk about what is mostly likely the final onscreen appearance of Jean-Luc Picard, the series finale of PICARD!   Barm, Kregg and Kev opt to stay in their homes, but we celebrate BARM'S PERFECT ATTENDANCE RECORD!   We also chat about what is probably(?) the series finale of Mando, Breath of the Wild on the...

THE BAD GUYS ARE THE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Jack's partner in ape podcast crime Geoff finally drops in to see what the heck is going on in season 3 of Picard, as Barm and Kev's files remain safely partitioned within the decrepit body of Brent Spiner.   Against all odds, they're still enjoying this movie-like season of Picard and having the gang all back together at last, although certainly not without some caveats, some droid bar talk conce...

Sam is back to continue his strange and wonderful habit of only watching every third Picard S3 episode, joined by Sean for his second dalliance with the season.   Barm and Jack remain in the trenches, shell-shocked.   But their spirits are buoyed by one of Levar Burton's most moving performances ever and by realizing Brent Spiner is, somehow, still an actor capable of doing some interesting perfor...

Sphere Lores and Moriarties and Geordis, OH MYYYY…..   We finally get to all the factories, and find this is where Picard Season 3 finally descends into nonsense.   It's still entertaining nonsense with some well written conversations and performances, but yeah.   Ferengi expert Kregg joins Kev and Barm to talk about fan jerk-offs, more (new?) questions about Changelings, baffling Moriarty cameos,...

The surprising return of Ro Laren lures Sean back to the podcast to finally dish on Picard Season 3.   Ro SUPERFANS Barm and Kev also join the fun, as we discuss Picard actually feeling like Picard again, the silliness of Vulcan gangstas, what the new "jumping the shark" is, the possible return of the Crystalline Entity, Jonathan Frakes's first, best destiny, introduce our OnlyFans, and wonder wha...

As Picard Season 3 wears on, Richard joins in on the fun, Sam checks in again, and everyone kind of agrees that they're sort of enjoying it, kind of?   We fill Sam in on Worf and Raffi (missing from this ep), try to remember the deal with Odo's bucket, find surprising parallels with the Yuuzhan Vong (look it up!), talk Star Trek books, delve deep into the mind of dipshit from Chicago Shaw, try to...

Barm and Kregg (Sneed is in the previously on) return for more Picard, and everyone sort of agrees that this is maybe kinda sorta an improvement on the last two episodes.   Especially, a scene between Bevs and Jean-Luc has our knickers in a twist.   Barm also goes off on Boomers, Jack goes off on Zoomers who don't know what Boomers are, Kregg is amused, but we all agree that Shaw is Gen-X.   We st...

Ferengi expert Kregg Castillo, who is enjoying this season of Picard more than most, is back to help us figure out SNEEEEEEED, the first (speaking) Ferengi we've seen in live-action since that silly old Enterprise episode back in the day.   Does he pass muster?   Does WORF pass muster?   Can Picard EVER get its fill of literal heads rolling?   But we're also talking about a much stranger configura...

Picard is BACK, and of course that means the PD Crew is on the case.   If Picard can get the ol' gang back together, why couldn't Jaxilly?   But does the PD Crew LIKE what Picard is hawking?   (Shriking?) Spoiler alert: Not really, but we're having as much fun chewing on this content here as Captain Shaw does chewing his dinner and also being annoyed by Picard and Riker and their harebrained schem...

As Season one of Prodigy draws to a close (in 2023), Jack gets together with Barm for the first time in a while to discuss Prodigy and how the season finale of this CGI kids show packs in more classic Trek heart and soul than entire seasons of Discovery manage to.   But they're also litigating the usage of speed anthems in early aughts racing movie trailers, talking Ludacris, trying to figure out...

Ring in the new year…. 2023…. in July 2025 (why not, it's Jaxilly!) in this very special episode where three drunk guys are awash in residual holiday cheer and bonding over how this little Star Trek kids show that no one believed in is somehow building up to one of the most heartwrenching and tense finales in Trek history.   Over a bottle of smoky Scotch (among other things), Jack, Sam and Sean ex...

Rottweiler Kev is back for a body-swap Bonanza!   As they witness V.A. Janeway and Dal making a real mess of things in each other's bodies, Kev and Jack reminisce on similar scenarios in Trek history, Jack shows off his hip-hop bona fides by declaring his love for numerous rap duos YOU'VE probably never heard of, Kev swaps bodies with someone who'd rather talk about ANYTHING other than James Bond,...

Sam is back for Baby's First Holodeck misadventure!   As he and Jack enjoy some classic Trek holodeck tropes, they also find time to investigate intriguing British changes to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, display their knowledge of various iterations of Jonny Quest, reminisce about the Year of Luigi, discuss what makes a good plane movie, try to recall fictional Marvel countries, elucidate what go...

After starting out with some straight-up blasphemy, things only get worse from there as Jack and guest Sean Davis dig their way to hell with some Polish jokes and penis talk as they celebrate Pearl Harbor Day while talking about this CGI animated Star Trek show for children.   Aren't you glad we're back?   Don't worry, we're also getting esoteric with topics like the sovereignty of various Mediter...

Jaxilly, like the Romulans, is BACK!   Apologies for the delay, the hard drive with all the recordings was basically held hostage by a lunatic repairman for FIVE months, but it's now back in my hands and repaired thanks to my pops!   Expect episodes on a regular basis, starting with THIS ONE, in which Jack and Geoff talk about Masquerade, the fourteenth episode of Star Trek: Prodigy!   It's where...
