This week, Justin Bolger joins us once again, this time for a deep-dive into the legacy of the first season-finale cliffhanger in Trek history, and how Picard’s tragic encounter with the Borg would shape and define the franchise for three decades. And of course we have a Red Shirt - 19 of them, actually.

So modulate your phaser frequencies, random settings, don’t give them time to adapt, and listen now to the new TR3!

From "Family" to "Star Trek: First Contact," Michael Piller's classic episode lives on long after Riker gives Worf the order to fire. Just how impactful is it? Listen and find out.



We also mourn/celebrate another legacy this week, that of the late James Horner -- the man responsible for providing the soundtrack for many of our childhoods.

And as always, we bury another Red Shirt -- this time, one who likes blond tactical experts and watching Picard get his Prefontaine on.

So Spotify some "Wrath of Khan," modulate those shield frequencies (random settings, keep them changing -- don't give them time to adapt!) and listen now to the latest ep of Transporter Room 3!
