    Consistently one of my favorite podcast to listen to, The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because they only update every couple of months now for some reason

  • Trash

    I happen to listen to the episode about Ensign Ro on the day that Hamas returned 2 Jewish babies strangled to death. Cirroc compares Israel to the Cardassians occupying Bajor. Just another uneducated Hollywood mouth piece looking for a kind of forum to spread misinformation about Jewish people.

  • A great crew!

    I’ve been listening since The 7th Rule was reviewing Deep Space Nine. Ryan, Malissa, Cirroc, and Denise have such great chemistry reviewing The Next Generation now. Now that Seasons 1 and 2 are over (LOL), I look forward to the new TNG episode drop every Sunday. It’s a great time!
