Matthew (he/him) and Jo (she/they) do “Hard Time” as we join Miles O’Brien for the WORST virtual reality experience of his life. We compare the prison system in this episode to the American prison system and would you believe, we are not fans, we cast DS9 crew members as the characters from Top Gun and we talk about just how dark, this extremely dark episode of Star Trek gets. Matthew asks if O’Brien has the heart of a killer and Jo rants about how deliciously cunty Richard Chamberlain is in The Count of Monte Cristo. As always, be prepared that spoilers may be lurking around every corner just like Garak on Empok Nor.Subscribe for weekly recaps of Star Trek Deep Space Nine, follow us online at @TerokNoir on Twitter for silly memes and polls and contact us by e-mail at teroknoirpod@gmail.com
