Casual Trek

23. Shax’s Second Best Day

It’s time to call out some Bad Admirals! Why do admirals go bad in Starfleet? Oddly enough one of these episodes will get into it. We could have picked so many episodes for this one, and we’ve got some interesting choices including a couple of recent Trek outings. We also talk about the awkward conversations on Voyager once Janeway de-Tuvixed Tuvok and Neelix for some reason and we cancel JL Picard for himself being a Badmiral. If you want to pitch in and help us decide who’s the Worstmiral, come on down to the Nerd & Tie Discord after listening to the show!
