Who's ready for a sci-fi quest? These respective heroes sure are! Who's your favorite lead of a science fiction franchise, and how do they survive everything the universe has to throw at them?

It's a talker this week in "...But to Connect"! The Federation hosts a big DMA to-do and everyone's invited! Including, unfortunately, Tarka. There's all kinds of speeches, including one that's just a thinly-veiled couple's spat being played out in front of a bunch of strangers! Awkward! Meanwhile, on "Discovery", Kovich and crew need to try and figure out how to deal with the fact that they're all hanging out inside a self-aware ship. Again: awkward!
Also this week: Space C-Span, Lorca 2.0, and Sci-Fi Heroes!

Podcasting. Podcasting never changes. Except for all the times we break from "Trek" to talk about something else, which we're doing again to discuss "Fallout" season one! With the second season just around the corner, we're talking the very successful video game adaptation that brought Interplay and Bethesda's (and to some extent Obsidian's) wasteland to a wider audience. There's Ghouls, Vault Dwellers, and Power Armor, so pull up whatever bit of pre-war trash counts as a seat around here and listen in!
Also this week: hot zombies, cold villains, and chilling motivations!
