Hello, my name is Tawny Newsom. I play Beckett Mariner on Star Trek Lower Decks.

I am Paul F. Tompkins and I play Dr. Migglymo on Star Trek Lower Decks.

But more importantly, we're just a couple of Star Trek nerds who are excited because we finally get to talk about Star Trek again with all of you.

And we will be featuring Deep Space Nine guests to celebrate the show's 30th anniversary.

We're gonna be talking Picard Season 3 with members of the original of the next generation cast.

Listen to Star Trek The Pod Directive Wherever You Get Your Podcast.

I think a lot of pairs felt that. Yeah, a lot was happening this week and I can't wait to get into it with you.

Because yeah, a lot, just as a viewer of so much was happening from so many sides and I'd like to say it had a happy ending.

And we'll talk about how you feel about the ending of today's episode.

But before we get into that, your Gold Star of the Week and your time out of the week.

Where are you giving this to?

I'm definitely gonna give my Gold Star to Jordan, my little Twinkle Toes.

Just, and that goes with experience too.

Like if you could see him and Johnny both were checking the line above them to make sure it didn't get tangled.

Because then you could have like a seamless run across the cars.

And Jordan's just so good. He has a shit in his backyard.

He was just amazing. I don't think anybody could have done it better.

Yeah, oh, they didn't do it.

I mean, well, yeah, you know, they didn't know.

Yeah, I'm proud of him.

And who's your time out of the week go to Nelson?

I'm gonna put Nelson in time out for a while.
