give us money!

The Rules of Acquisition has been irregularly posting “The RoA Remix” to all the regular places that RSS feed shows up.

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.

Echoing in the Void: Companion Epilogues pt 3

May it be that Disco Home Season 2 is finally over?

Lane and Courtney are nervous. Will Discovery stay in the future? 

Let’s talk about the romance.  This show’s characters can’t even talk between themselves about their relationships without one being in a coma. 

Dream plots and Klingon gods. 

And finally, Wade receives final thoughts on Discovery Season 2 from Stefan in the Netherlands. And two guys who didn’t watch the show have a few questions.

Filling the Void: Companion Epilogues pt 2

With Discovery fading into the past, and flying into the future, we ask important questions such as: What kind of drug is each Star Trek series, and what was it like to binge all of Season 2 of Star Trek Discovery within a convenient trial size period of time?

Wade is once again joined by two guest companions. This time it’s journalist Ryan Britt (@ryancbritt on twitter), and an entirely new voice to Disco Home Season 2, Adam P. Newton (@dryvetyme).

Some Sweeter Sorrow (Discovery S2E14)

We got emotional watching this episode. And not all of it was anger!  We talk a bit about things we like, so be cool everybody.  But then… we talk about some of the things we weren’t as keen on.  Great action, but what about the story of this season?   

Wade, Glen, and Sean are along for this one, but keep looking at the feed to hear from more of our companions for this season.

Oh, and here’s the Den of Geek article Wade steals all his references from:https://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/star-trek-discovery/280608/star-trek-discovery-season-2-episode-14-easter-eggs-references

Such Bitter Sorrow (Discovery S2E13)

The end game approaches! In the meantime not much happens, but actually more happens than you could arguably fit into an hour, or fifty seven minutes.  We kvetch because we care!

Sean Perrotta is back to detail what he felt he missed in the past two episodes.  Glen Hall gives a synopsis.  Wade Bowen is here too. Go figure.

Full House of Shadows (Discovery S2E12)

Time crystals, y’all. Time Crystals.  Lots happened in this episode, or did it?  Where did the time go?  Pike visits a Klingon to get a rock, Michael gets shot at, and Stamets and Culber get talked to.  Could last week’s next-on have jumped straight past into this week’s?

It’s a full pod with plenty of opinions from Glen Hall, and extra guests Lane Bowen, Benny Scheckner, Courtney Bowen, and also a rather quiet baby.

Rad Angel (Discovery S2E10)

Rad or… Bad?
The identity of the red angel is revealed! And then some. What is the best way to catch a time traveler who might have pertinant information at its disposal?

Sean is back. Where was he last week and what is going on with Star Trek Discovery?  

The streak is broken and Wade wasn’t as big a fan of this episode. 

Can Glen do a “short” synopsis?  All questions will be answered!
