This episode of Transporter Room 3 is posting the same day that Phil is getting married -- while naked, of course, in Ten Forward! -- so special guest host Dr. Arnold T. Blumberg beams in to fill (phil?) in for Phil! We discuss why Arnold loves Picard but really couldn’t get into Discovery before diving in to the return of some of our favorite Next Generation characters.

And Hugh actor Jonathan Del Arco enters the queencell and uses the Sikarian spatial trajector to visit TR3 for a chat about his beloved character and the big, big moments for him in “Nepenthe.”

Of course, we’ve also got Reader Mail and a bunch of Red Shirts as well, so light up the Riker pizza oven, practice your Viverna language skills, and listen to the latest episode of Transporter Room 3 now!
