Summary

It’s the MaxFun Block Party, and for the first time ever we’re trying to make it easy for new listeners to understand wtf we’re talking about on The Greatest Generation and The Greatest Discovery. In this special episode we go back through the archives of our podcast and trace the origins of some of our favorite running bits, and break down some of our most obscure jargon. If you’re new to The Greatest Generation or The Greatest Discovery, there has never been a better episode to jump in with, and if you’re already o Friend of DeSoto, we hope this serves as a fun trip d̶o̶w̶n̶ ̶m̶e̶m̶o̶r̶y̶ ̶l̶a̶n̶e̶ through Carl’s Hole.

Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! Welcome to the greatest generation it's a Star Trek podcast

by a couple of guys just a little bit embarrassed about having a Star Trek podcast. I'm Adam

many people's first episode? God, what if that works? What if what if we get new listeners

0:58.9

So yeah we were asked by our beloved network maximumfund.org to make an episode that would be

1:10.8

a intro to our show and that was kind of a curveball. We were not expecting this as a project and

1:21.1

now you and I have lived the last couple months extremely busy self-producing our show and

1:28.7

recording a number of episodes. What maximumfund presupposes is that maybe we have the bandwidth for

1:35.6

an extra show just for them? A couple of extra stuff. Yeah but anyways we're here to try and introduce

Well do you want to talk about who we are for a second Adam and then what we do?

2:02.8

Yeah I mean you and I met many years ago and it was our shared love of Star Trek the next

2:09.0

generation that brought us together. We didn't really know each other at that point. Our friendship

2:18.7

was built on the foundation of Star Trek and as we got to know each other better over that next

2:24.4

year we started to joke around a lot about our shared knowledge of this show and agreed that it

2:30.8

might make a really fun project to do as a podcast. Yeah and so if you are the kind of person
