Episode Synopsis

Liz and Anika discuss shipping in Star Trek: The Next Generation -- at least until Liz suddenly realises she's messed up her calendar and has to flee to an appointment.
We are very good at this whole podcasting business.
Social media: it's good, actually
"I stayed to watch, and there was something very important that she had to tell Jean-Luc, and I was like, 'Oh my gosh, she loves him!' And 30 years later, here I am."
Liz's friend Lauren shares their opinions as a first-time TNG viewer
Early widowhood probably wasn't great for Beverly's sex life
Is anyone out there shipping Geordi/Leah Brahms?
Riker/Troi, a pairing which somehow achieved perfection after the series ended
Why are there MULTIPLE incidents where consensual encounters between Riker and Troi are hijacked by telepathic rapists? How did that happen? 
"Peter David is … problematic."
Deanna/Worf: the very best end of series random relationship
How Worf is like Kylo Ren
Picard/Ro Laren shippers: there are dozens of us
Is Picard demisexual?

Content notes:
We get a little more explicit than usual in this episode, particularly when it comes to the logistics of sex with Klingons. And there is discussion of sexual assault from 24 minutes to 26:23.
Sound notes:
Despite doing every single thing normally, there are a few points where there's a hissing noise behind Liz if Anika's track is muted. For that reason, we have a bit more overtalk than usual.
