The incomparable number 532, September 2020.

Welcome back, everybody, to The Incomparable, a podcast where we draft things almost every week, it seems, at this point.

I'm Jason Snell, your host.

I love to draft things, and that's why we do it this way.

I also love Star Trek, and this is the Star Trek character draft in which my panelists, the seven people who are joining me

on this massive, giant-sized podcast, and then myself too. I'll pick last in each round. We're going to

pick characters from Star Trek and form them together into a group of characters that would have an

interesting interaction, perhaps in an episode or a series that they would star in. And that's all of the

prep that I've given to my panelists, so I'm now going to introduce to you in the order in which

they will pick in this draft. First, I can't believe this, first-time incomparable panelist, but

longtime editor of many podcasts you've listened to, including some on the incomparable network,

and he will get the first pick. It's Jim Metzendorf. Jim, welcome. Congratulations. You will be

picking first. Jolon True, everyone.

Calamarin.

Oh, no.

That's not, no.

Move along home, everyone.

Picking second will be David J. Lour.

Shaka, when the walls fell.

Save that to the end, probably.

Picking third, Moises, Chouyan.

I do all of this podcasting, Jason, but you know what the sad part is?
