| 5/19/26 | ![]() VOY: "Endgame" (s7e25-26) with Charylnn Schmiedt from Mission Log: Prodigy | ALL GOOD THINGS... was a fantastic finale for The Next Generation and TV in general. But seven years later, how did the Voyager finale measure up? Does it manage to avoid unflattering comparisons to that famous episode? On the occasion of its 25th anniversary and Fighting the System Month, it seemed like an appropriate time to revisit this one. Joining Bryan to decide if it's a Trek, Marry, or Kill is Charlynn Schmiedt, who co-hosts the Mission Log: Prodigy podcast as well as T.P. For Your Earholes: A Beavis and Butt-Head Podcast -- AND -- has the greatest handle in internet history (@ohtheprofanity). Check those out after listening to this one!

| 5/12/26 | ![]() TOS: "The Ultimate Computer" (s2e24) with Anthony Pascale & Laurie Ulster from TrekMovie.com's All Access Star Trek Podcast | SON OF A GLITCH. Control of the Enterprise is given over to a computer program programmed by a one-time wiz-kid who is trying to invent The Next Big Thing. But is automated space exploration that thing? Probably not. Bryan and Kristen are joined by Anthony Pascale & Laurie Ulster from TrekMovie.com's All Access Star Trek Podcast to discuss an episode from The Original Series that resonates today as much as it did upon first airing. Thank you for listening to us all these years. It's Trek Marry Kill's **200TH** EPISODE!

| 5/5/26 | ![]() TNG: "Half A Life" (s4e22) with creator Matt Baume | AUNTIE MAME'S MORALITY. Has Lwaxanna Troi finally found love in the form of timid Dr. Timicin, whose life's work to reignite his planet's dying star hits a wall when he's scheduled to perform ritual suicide? This week, Bryan is joined by YouTube creator and writer Matt Baume to discuss a serious episode featuring the flamboyant Lwaxanna. Check out the excellent video Matt made all about Lwaxanna's place in the Trek firmament on his channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHbTWEXSx1Y&pp=ygUYbWF0dCBiYXVtZSBsd2F4YW5uYSB0cm9p Learn more about your ad choices.

| 4/28/26 | ![]() VOY: "The Thaw" (s2e23) with James Thorpey of The Monster Rally Podcast | WHAT FEAR WANTS is to keep itself alive and only Captain Janeway is clever enough to outwit a computer program that's become the embodiment of that extreme emotion. Are We Sure It Was Bad? Month concludes with the episode of Star Trek: Voyager where This Is Spinal Tap's and Better Call Saul's Michael McKean guest stars as a killer clown. Joining Bryan to decide if it's a TREK, MARRY, or KILL is James Thorpey, one of the hosts of Geekscape's Monster Rally Podcast.

| 4/21/26 | ![]() TOS: "The Way to Eden" (s3e20) with Mark Farinas & Ryan Thomas Riddle of The Ship Full of Jerks Podcast | HIP HIP HIPPIE! The Ship Full of Jerks take command of the podcast once again as "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month rolls along. The Enterprise takes into custody a band of hippies who are trying to find the mythical planet of Eden, which for some reason is very close to the Neutral Zone. To them, Kirk is a square and Spock is cool. Also, Chekov has a preexisting relationship with one of them. Is the episode a TREK, MARRY, or KILL? This episode has a three-way tie!

| 4/14/26 | ![]() TNG: "The Royale" (s2e12) with writer Cory Marciel | ALIEN ANT HOTEL. Riker, Data, and Worf get caught in an alien habitat setup to mimic the story of a trashy airport novel carried by a long-dead NASA astronaut. "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month continues with this season two headscratcher from TNG. Will Bryan and guest co-host Cory give this one a TREK, MARRY, or KILL? Learn more about your ad choices.

| 4/7/26 | ![]() DS9: "Move Along Home" (s1e9) | QUARK THE GAMER. We kick off "Are We Sure It Was Bad?" Month with one of the more memed episodes of Star Trek: the episode where Sisko, Kira, Dax, and Bashir become trapped in a board game brought through the wormhole by gaming aliens from the Gamma Quadrant. Shereese the Sci Fi Savage beams in to see if this one is a TREK, MARRY, or KILL. Check out Shereese's YouTube channel here: The Sci-Fi Savage - YouTube Learn more about your ad choices.

| 4/3/26 | ![]() LD-"The Best Exotic Nanite Hotel" & "A Farewell to Farms" (s5e3-4) with writers Avery Kaplan & Ollie Kaplan | HASTE MAKES TASTE? Bryan is joined by the Kaplans, Avery & Ollie, to talk about their love of Lower Decks, the worst episode of Star Trek in Ollie's opinion, and thoughts on how Star Trek should leverage its many alien cuisines. As for the two episodes up for judgment, in the first one, Mariner backslides into a season 3 characterization while T'Lynn reveals another awesome aspect of her personality. In the second, Dr. Migleemo's world proves to be a seven-course headache for the Cerritos crew! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices | 1h 43m 14s | ||||||
| 3/31/26 | ![]() SNW: "New Life and New Civilizations" (s3e10) | EYES WIDE SH*T? It's the third season finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and it would appear that the writing staff used the opportunity to combine three or four partial storylines they'd been noodling with all year only to realize that this might wind up being the series finale. Does the stew of ideas and spectacle make this a TREK, MARRY, or KILL? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices | 1h 31m 06s | ||||||
| 3/24/26 | ![]() SNW: "Terrarium" (s3e9) | GORNTEGAS? Erica Ortegas finally gets a substantial spotlight and it's a take on Enemy Mine and the TNG episode "Darmok."

| 3/17/26 | ![]() SNW: "Four-and-a-Half Vulcans" (s3e8) | HENRY ALONSO MYERS presents his Star Trek-ified version of Birth of a Nation in the latest "it's okay because they're aliens" racial comedy that Strange New Worlds is the genre they've pioneered. But does this one match up well with, say, "Spock Amok," or "Charades," the episode to which this is a soft sequel? Bryan and Kristen try not to concern themselves with the plot and just examine this one as an expression of... something. Learn more about your ad choices.

| 3/10/26 | ![]() SNW: "What Is Starfleet?" (s3e7) | BETO'S FIRST MOVIE isn't quite what it was sold as. It's not feature length and it's more of a hit piece than an examination of what Starfleet is, and that's probably for the best as it's clear that Erica Ortegas's lil' bro has some serious problems with what's happened to his sister in service of the fleet. Are Bryan and Kristen impressed by this format-shifting episode of Strange New Worlds? Check out Open Pike Nights' Strange New Words podcast interview with Alan B.

| 3/3/26 | ![]() SNW: "The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail" (s3e6) | TRUSTING HIS FARRAGUT. Lt. Commander Kirk is thrust into command of the USS Farragut, but thankfully, he has Spock, Scotty, Uhura, and Nurse Chapel there to help him get through a hairy situation. Meanwhile, aboard a captured Enterprise, Chris and La'an play Lee & Starbuck, skulking the corridors taking out Cylons -- I-I mean ancient astronauts who've lost their humanity and are trying to strip the ship for parts.

| 3/1/26 | ![]() LD: "Dos Cerritos" & "Shades of Green" (s5e1-2) with Geekscape's Katie Hampton | THINE OWN SELVES. The Cerritos crew meets their alternate reality versions and are not too happy by what they discover about themselves via a parallel universe. Meanwhile, Tendi's choice to remain with the Orion Syndicate for a bit longer than you might expect gives her character an added, interesting dimension. This month's animated spotlight kicks off the fifth and final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks. Will Bryan and returning guest co-host Katie Hampton Trek, Marry, or Kill these episodes??

| 2/24/26 | ![]() TNG: "Lessons" (s6e19) with Mark Farinas & Ryan Thomas Riddle of the Ship Full of Jerks Podcast | JEAN-LUC'S MOMMY ISSUES. This week, Bryan & Kristen transfer command codes of the podcast to the hosts of the Ship Full of Jerks podcast, Mark Farinas & Ryan Thomas Riddle. They bring to a close Love In A Vacuum Month with a look at the time Jean-Luc Picard dated a subordinate. Does it reflect Gene Roddenberry's vision of the 24th century or is it something closer to a man with modern day mommy issues? The Jerks are on the case!

| 2/17/26 | ![]() VOY: "Day of Honor" (s4e3) with Liz Shannon Miller of Consequence.net | WORST DAY EVER? B'Elanna Torres is stuck with Tom Paris floating in space, but that might not be the worst thing that's happened to her or Voyager on the Klingon Day of Honor. Bryan and guest co-host Liz Shannon Miller, the Senior Entertainment Editor of Consequence.net, look at a pivotal episode in the B'Tomnna relationship to determine if it's a TREK, MARRY, or KILL.

| 2/3/26 | ![]() TOS: "This Side of Paradise" (s1e24) with Curtis Fortier, Creator of 12 Sided Die | A HIDDEN TREASURE? Our theme this month is Love In A Vacuum, and kicking it off is an episode that's pivotal to understanding the Kirk-Spock relationship and the interiority of Mr. Spock -- so why isn't it one that frequently comes up when discussing the best episodes of the franchise? Bryan and guest Curtis Fortier try to reason it out.

| 1/27/26 | ![]() VOY: "The Voyager Conspiracy" (s6e9) with writer Avery Kaplan | PARALYSIS BY ANALYSIS.

For the first time in Trek Marry Kill's history, a member of the Star Trek team beams aboard to judge their own episode. Episode director David Livingston offers up his thoughts on Odo's feelings, casting decisions, shot selection, and the scene Colm Meaney really loved to do as well as his choices for his best-directed episodes of DS9 and Voyager, but what grade will he give his own work: TREK, MARRY, or KILL?

| 1/6/26 | ![]() TNG: "Conspiracy" (s1e25) | A REAL HEADACHE. Star Trek dips into pod people conspiracy territory with a complete outlier in the canon when it comes to graphic violence. It's an episode timed perfectly (?) to the 5-year anniversary of the January 6th Riot in Washington, D.C. Does it have enough campy charm to keep it out of Bryan and Kristen's phaser sight?
