Was kind enough to have me back on the show and this time we go through season 1 of Star Trek: The Next Generation to find which episodes would make great content for Star Trek Online. We're not looking at you "Angel One"...
Episode 6 descirption: Besides the usual podcast where we discuss STO releases and the state of the game in general I wanted to open it up a little and talk about Star Trek canon.
