Enterprising Individuals

Hold on to your hats this week as we play ball with "Justice"!Stuart Hollis and Thad Hait of the Delta Flyer Podcast and the Stargate Weekly Podcast join the show to talk about an early episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that pushes the Theiss Titillation Theory to the point of (wardrobe) malfunction! The Enterprise pulls into Rubicun III, a planet of sexually-liberated, Scandinavian jogging enthusiasts. But when Wesley stops to maul the roses, the crew learns that this Edenic paradise is deadly serious about the "broken window" theory and they've got "God" in their corner!Our heroes get primed by their own Directive in this episode, as the Federation's twin pillars of integrity and non-interference are put on trial. During our talk, we discuss Justice's amazing pedigree and mediocre execution, protecting a society even if you don't like that society, interpreting legislative intent, marinating in the feel of season 1 TNG, the "smell test" of a Prime Directive violation, and why a planet with no crime
