Deep Space Wine: A Star Trek Deep Space Nine Companion
Like a fine wine, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine has only gotten better with age. Join us as we recap and decode every episode of the overlooked stepchild of the Star Trek universe. Each episode we share a bottle of wine, wind down, and then wind ourselves up again with our strong opinions about DS9. Because, in our social experience, people love nothing more than when someone talks at length about Star Trek or wine.

...The Rest Is Drag: THE FORSAKEN (1.16)
Get your Kleenex ready - it’s time for the episode that makes all of us melt into a puddle. And if you haven’t got your pail nearby, thank the drag gods that Lwaxana Troi is here to scoop you back up. Lily and Cole deep-dive into Lwaxana’s drag queen energy, what her fabulousness brings to the comparatively sterile world of Star Trek, and particularly what her arrival means for queer-coded self-acceptance on DS9. We also pay tribute to actress Majel Barrett, First Lady of Star Trek.
🪕 Intro music: Lily on ukulele and vocals, "I Am a Rock" by Simon & Garfunkel
🍷 Wine pairing: Beaujolais 'Les 3 Roches' from Pierre-Marie Chermette
