Episode 49

"Emissary"

Published on: 4th March, 2024

Well, folks, we've finally made it to the best Star Trek series of them all, and we will hear no other opinions on the matter. Strangely though, for being the unabashed greatest of them all, this series is still fairly niche and doesn't get the attention it deserves. As a result, we have taken it upon ourselves to become the emissaries of this beloved show and spread its word to the world. Convert yourself to the truth as we watch this premiere episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

This is the beginning of Part Five of our 100 episode list, Venturing Out Into The Universe, in which we're examining how the Star Trek franchise has grown and changed over its history. In this chunk of episodes, we're going to be looking at Deep Space Nine & The End of TNG--that period of time when there was not one, but two Star Trek shows on at the same time! This will be a nineteen episode selection comprised of episodes from the First and Second Seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, as well as episodes from the Sixth and Seventh Seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1993-94).

Episode discussion starts at 25:38.

Hosted by Jaron Hatch, Aaron Cole, with Carleton Bluford & Sarah Walker.

About the Podcast

Star Trek Stories
A Watch-Along Podcast
A podcast where we hang out with friends, watch episodes from across the Star Trek franchise, and chat about them!

This is a show for both newcomers and long-time fans alike, as part of we what do here is explore perspectives on Star Trek and storytelling in general. We're currently watching through a curated 100 episode list titled "Venturing Through The Universe." In this list, we're exploring how the Star Trek franchise has grown and changed over the decades, beginning with its origins in 1964 and seeing where it ends up in the modern day. We'll go on adventures with Mister Spock, listen to Patrick Stewart wax philosophically about humanity, and see how high Captain Pike's towering pompadour can get. Covering the good, the bad, and the ugly, we'll get a look at just about everything Star Trek has to offer. So grab your headphones, cue up an episode, and get lost in a silly little Star Trek story with us. Make it so!
