Release Date: 09/16/2024
138 - Crossroads (PRO1x13) (with Kregg Castillo)
Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast
While the Prodigy kids finally meet the REAL Janeway and her cronies, guest Kregg Castillo finally meets the XINDI! It’s outrageous! Also, Okona is in this episode for some reason, and that we means we get to reminisce on all the ways that TNG Season 2 was such remarkable television. Kregg doesn&t remember Okona, and Jack also has some startling revelations about Prodigy that he already should have known. Oh, and ANDOR TALK! It’s all here, and it’s all outrageous!

137 - All The World's a Stage (PRO1x12) (with Kev Young)
Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast
Guess who’s back? Well, in addition to the spirits of the original Enterprise crew (the NC-1701’s, not the NX) (no, not Pike or April’s, Kirk’s crew) (Yes, the ones from the original SHOW) crew, living on through the will of these weird aliens, it’s Kev, to talk about an initially pretty wild episode of Prodigy with one of the strangest premises we’ve ever seen. Kev and Jack really dive into the nuts and bolts of how and more importantly, IF this episode can even make sense, and bring to life the guy from one episode of TOS who started it all. You’ll find it even more fun...

136 - Let Sleeping Borg Lie (PRO1x11) (with Beau Mathews)
Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast
Jaxilly has assimilated a new guest, adding Beau Mathew’s knowledge of video games and Japanese language tests to its own. Listeners, I’m telling you, resistance is futile! The day Jack had dreaded and hoped, as recently as the previous episode, would never arrive, is here (in late 2022, I mean). It’s Prodigy’s BABY’S FIRST BORG episode. Does it stand a chance, or is it as worthless to us as a Kazon is to the Borg? The only way to find out is to listen to these two interlocutors drone on to each other. JOIN THE JAXILLY HIVE MIND.

135 - Asylum (PRO1x10) (with Sam Stovold)
Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast
Prodigy is back (this was WAY before it was canceled), and so is the PD Crew! That·s right, the Prodigy Debut Crew (aka Super Rios Bros) is back, and they couldn·t be happier than to be talking about Barniss. Fucking. FREX and some of the other less important characters. But first, Jack is going to spend an absurdly long time guessing who·s in a Marvel movie that everyone has already seen, and the fellas are gonna touch on what makes TNG unique, talk Babylon 5, reminisce on why cops are scary, and quote Eminem a lot. And hope that Prodigy never, ever, ever, does a Borg episode.

WARNING: If this is your first time listening to this podcast, DO NOT start here, theoretical fan who’s just itching to hear some takes on the 9th episode of Season 3 of Lower Decks in August 2024.

For fans of podcasts on life support that should have died, but have instead been cobbled together from FOUR different recordings recorded in THREE separate calendar years, have we got the five hour masterstroke for you here! Never has anyone struggled so...

Dim the lights and put on some popcorn, it’s movie night at Jaxilly!

JAXILLY WILL RETURN.

Chirp, chirp, CAW, muthafucka! Peanut Hamper is BACK (for the first time) in a Very Special Episode of Lower Decks, and this episode of Jaxilly is also very special because the wonderful Michelle Ugalde flies back to the nest and rejoins the flock to sing her songs about it, songs that Jack, Sean, Sam and Barm are all too happy to join in singing. Songs about birdmen, nipples, Final Fantasy, why ANDOR is the greatest goddamn thing ever and so much more. Roost here! CORNISH GAME HENS ARE BIRDS

Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast
HEEEEEY, Jaxilly is FINALLY putting out episodes AGAAAIIIN. This one was recorded nearly a year and a half ago, but it is WORTH THE WAIT. The Super Rios Brothers are at it again, talking about the Spider-Verse, David Lynch and cowboys, Saul Rubinek, the films of Jordan Peele, the raft of delightful Star Trek deep cuts in this episode, and occasionally the main plot about the two Rutherfords that serves as the primary story arc of the season. Come party like it's 2022!
