Those crazy holobois really did it. They did a live, in-person recording! It’s even mostly about Star Trek! Janeway and crew sorta kinda don’t help a dinosaur scientist (scientist who is a dinosaur) prove that space dinosaurs are from earth. Plus X great 1990s-era dino graphics on... THE HOLODECK!

The streak of BAD episodes is over, but unfortunately the streak of non-holodeck content continues as the holobois do one long, seemingly unbroken bit about how everybody on Voyager has an assistant. For real, though, this Felini-inspired episode SLAPS as Kim, Janeway, Torres and more get sucked into a mind-simulation that's not too far off from... THE HOLODECK!

Look, this isn't a HOLODECK episode but we had to put in a bad Deep Space 9 ep. And this KINDA counts, right? All the DS9 crew gets sucked up into a 3D Chutes & Ladders game from the gamma quadrant. Can you guess which two holobois actually liked this episode?

Definitely Voyager 's worst episode, "Threshold" really takes it out of the holobois as Tom Paris breaks the transwarp barrier! He's everywhere in the universe at once, which leads to some pretty spectacular science fiction ideas, like "What if a dude turned into a lizard?" This episode is so bad, Trek to the Holodeck had to bring on its science correspondent to explain the episode's worst science...

In this WILD, TWISTING, brain-MELTING season premiere, the holobois watch the worst episode of Star Trek... ever? Probably! This one's full of juicy behind-the-scenes trivia, a new (but totally old) addition to the Star Trek composer pantheon, and a detailed exploration of why there aren't any bathrooms on the bridge deck of the Enterprise-D . Oh, and Tasha fights a (white) Aikido dude in... THE H...

Darius is on "holoday" this week, so the remaining holobois take a break from the hard work of watching and rating every holodeck episode EVER by touching on some important trek topics: who would win between the Borg and the Dominion? Should you go see the Trek exhibition at Skirball if you're in LA (yes, but you can't)? Are we realistically looking at a new episode of Star Trek on tv every week?!...

"Clues" with special guest Katie Halliday! (TNG S4 E14) As in "Emmy Award-winning" Katie Halliday Katie Halliday (Emmy award-winning sound designer for Star Trek: Discovery and the upcoming Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) joins the holobois with excellent insight into sound design in the 60s, 90s and today through the lens of this excellent bottle episode where Data is a prime suspect in a Space My...

What's there to say about this classic episode (later riffed about on Lower Decks ) beyond the fact it's got some fantastic lewks for Captain Kirk and Commander Spock? The Enterprise beams down during the "Red Hour" of Beta III, a planet run by a totally-real-not-a-computer definitely not a 1960's slight at Communism being called "Landru." But mostly it's all about those cool 1800s costumes and ba...

The holobois go way off course on this Lower Decks episode, covering the advances in distraction technology (Wordle), Telarite pics (what's canon?!) and trap doors. Oh, and they take like 45 seconds to rate the scene where Mariner cleans out the waste from… THE HOLODECK!

Brilliant. Thoughtful. Midwestern. These words describe this week's guest, Kirie, who flat-out levels the holobois in smarts with her insights to one of the silliest (and best?) episodes of Deep Space Nine . It's simple, really: Quark has the hots for his Klingon ex-wife Grilka, Worf has the hots for Grilka, Dax has the hots for Worf, Worf and Dax help Quark seduce Grilka, Grilka's bodyguard chall...

ANOTHER PONFAR EPISODE?! You betcha! This time it's Vorik that goes though it and he does not handle it well.
