Can’t Picardly Wait (You Don’t Have to)

Another episode of Picard. Tall who? When is Fandom a bad thing? A new segment, “Status Update” provides the math we’ve never needed.
Breaking down the episode or having a breakdown?  Wade doesn’t want to get caught up in being a fan, yet gets mad at minutiae.  Sean doesn’t know to get mad at anything. So he doesn’t.  Glen is really committed to being the ultimate Star Trek fan and getting his percentages up.

Fall; or, Dodge in Hell: Part 8 – A Gnostic Simulation

This one was little late guys. We’re sorry. We experienced a loss with this episode.  There may, however, be a technological solution.  Listen for a note at the top of the episode to explain further, but the short is:

A routine procedure went awry.  James is Gone (No, he’s not!).
Maybe he is here, in some sense.

What exactly does Gnosticism have to do with Dodge in Hell?  Quite a lot it turns out!

We read the beginning of Book 2 of Fall for this installment, but even if you haven’t read it that’s ok.  It’s a book about a simulated afterlife.  Lets talk about simulations and their worth.  Maybe we’ll argue [Wait, who’s arguing?] about why people do things and how they behave in this book.
