Before "Heart of Glory," Worf mostly stood at tactical. After it, he had Khitomer, human parents, and a code of honor that would carry him through two series. A weak episode that did an important job. #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #Worf With @bettnet and @jimmyakin3000. Heart of Glory (TNG) - Secrets of Star Trek: starquest.fm/SST436

Apple's new HomeView recognizes up to six faces and gives each person a private home screen. Great, unless your household has seven people.

Under the casing, a Dalek is a living creature. So does it have a soul? A listener asked, and the answer draws on Aristotle and Aquinas. #DoctorWho #Daleks #WeirdQuestions With @jimmyakin3000 and @bettnet. mysterious.fm/439

A sick Anglican priest, becalmed on a fruit boat off Sicily, wrote six lines asking only for one step forward. He had no idea those lines would outlive his entire career. St. John Henry Newman's story starts on that boat. #CatholicHistory #JohnHenryNewman With @bettnet. St. John Henry Newman: One Step Enough for Me - Holy Troublemakers: starquest.fm/HTM006

Silo's Season 3 finale wakes Daniel Keene with no memory and a massacre to carry out. If a man is reprogrammed into a killer, is he still guilty? #Silo #AppleTV With @bettnet. Silo, S3: Troy - Secrets of Television: starquest.fm/STV030

Star Trek's first holodeck showed up in 1974, and it was called the rec room. "The Practical Joker" gets there 13 years before Riker walks into the woods on the Enterprise-D. #StarTrek #StarTrekTAS With @bettnet and @jimmyakin3000.

A handful of people in a room decided who would live and who would die, then lit the fuse that made it permanent. Silo's "Farewell" finally shows the moment the doors closed. Who gave them that right? #Silo #SiloTV With @bettnet. Silo, S3: Farewell - Secrets of Television: starquest.fm/STV029

When AWS went down last October, some smart beds got stuck at odd angles because they couldn't reach the cloud. A bed that needs Amazon's permission to lie flat is a design choice. What in your house fails the same test? #LocalFirst #SelfHosted With @bettnet and @thomassanjurjo. Local-First: Keep Working When the Cloud Doesn't - Secrets of Technology: starquest.fm/TEC364

A validly ordained priest travels back in time and says Mass before Jesus is born. Is the bread really changed into the Body of Christ? #WeirdQuestions #Catholic With @jimmyakin3000 and @bettnet. mysterious.fm/438

The Vulcan salute. "Live long and prosper." The fight music everyone can hum. All three arrive in one hour of television, and it is the hour where Spock nearly kills his captain. #StarTrek #StarTrekTOS With @bettnet and @jimmyakin3000. Amok Time (TOS) - Secrets of Star Trek: starquest.fm/SST434

A priest blesses a glass of water. It evaporates, drifts into a cloud and falls as rain. Is the rain still holy water? That's the first of a two-hour run of weird questions. #WeirdQuestions #Catholic With @jimmyakin3000 and @bettnet. mysterious.fm/437

Look at a jacket in a shop window, ask for your size, keep walking while an AI agent pays for it. That's the pitch for Meta's Muse.

A French cannonball shattered his leg at Pamplona in 1521 and ended the only career he'd ever wanted. He was 30, vain, hot-tempered, and finished. Then he got bored in bed, and the boredom did what the cannonball couldn't. #Ignatius #Jesuits #CatholicHistory #HolyTroublemakers With @bettnet.

The silos were not built because the world ended. They were built because one trillionaire decided it was going to. Three seasons of Silo, and "Gray Goo" finally says the quiet part out loud. #Silo #SiloTV With @bettnet. Silo, S3: Gray Goo - Secrets of Television: starquest.fm/STV028

Two Uhuras, one year apart, and a Scotty who died in one timeline. The Strange New Worlds Season 4 finale borrows its shape from "Yesterday's Enterprise."

Francis of Assisi had a physical horror of lepers. The smell made him sick, and his habit on the road was to turn the horse around and ride the other way. One afternoon he got down instead, took the man's hand, and kissed him. That afternoon is the entire life. #StFrancis #Catholic With @bettnet.

A fairy-tale world builds doppelgangers of the Enterprise crew, and two of them walk onto the bridge and start giving orders. Nobody mutinies.
