Casual Trek

3. Oh Dear, It’s Blackface!

It’s an episode of Casual Trek all about Klingons! Qapla’! It was so hot when we recorded this, I muted myself and had my fan on so many times during the recording and am amazed I didn’t pass out.

Timecodes:
00:00:00 Opening
00:11:29 TOS: Errand of Mercy
00:29:18 TNG: Matter of Honour
00:47:16 DS9: House of Quark

When I was a child I found a corkscrew my dad left out from a night drinking wine with friends and thought it was weirdly like a d’k tahg. I’m amazed I never stabbed anyone with it.

Talking points include: Orks. Sigh… blackface. Space Vietnam. Solving issues by actually talking. Battlestar Galactica. Brain Thompson getting a good guy role. Starscream’s actor not being Starscream enough. Rookie colleagues who think they know everything. Oh, and occasionally Star Trek. I call the newer Battlestar Galactica “the real Battlestar Galactica” even though it didn’t come out first. It is definitely the better one, so if you want to correct me, please find a void to shout into, you big nerds.
