Journey's End

Journey's End has been a long time in coming. It feels like the beginning of the end of the series and it's also an episode I recorded with this guest host almost two years ago. 

That said, there are a few things I'd like to get off of my chest:

  • Picard does not have Native American heritage.
  • Ro Laren was 8 episodes of TNG and a prominent character in 6 of those episodes.
  • Cardassians had neck frills in their original appearance.
  • The Native Americans from The Original Series episode, "The Paradise Syndrome," were from Earth, not a parallel culture.
  • Romulans have never been remotely "up front."

I hope you like two white guys talking about Native American culture for 45 minutes. It was neck and neck whether we could be marginally more enlightened than Star Trek and I think we pulled ahead just a little bit.

The Beige and The Bold is hosted on Anchor and is available on most podcasting platforms. New episodes are usually posted on Sunday nights at 9:00 PM CST.
