504: To Jer is Hermann [ft. Ray Cordova]

Speaker 1 Space.

Speaker 1 Some is chill.

Speaker 1 Some is tuped up.

Speaker 1 All is part of the great infinite cosmic ballet.

Speaker 1 The venerable starship, the RSS Synergy, forges ever deeper into uncharted regions of their galaxy, growing the coalition of united planets in the name of science, benevolence, and peace.

Speaker 2 Now, lead envoy C-53 and his intrepid crew explore new worlds, forge alliances, and search for a way back home to finally fulfill their

Speaker 8 mission to sink.

Speaker 8 Oh, hey, Dar,

Speaker 8 how'd it go?

Speaker 8 Good, right? It doesn't sound great.

Speaker 8 Not

Speaker 8 good.

Speaker 8 Did you go to a touping party? Yes.

Speaker 9 It was advertised as a raw, hardcore touping party.

Speaker 10 I know you told us that many times.

Speaker 9 I was pretty excited about it, so I wanted you all to know what I was getting up to last night.

Speaker 11 You said hardcore and raw, like you repeated it a lot.

Speaker 10 You said the word raw very slowly, very often.

Speaker 9 I know. I was very excited about last night.
Thank you again for watching Horse Hat.

Speaker 13 No problem.

Speaker 14 Right, we all did that.

Speaker 15 Yeah, they went right down. down.

Speaker 10 So, you gonna tell us a what?

Speaker 16 There's

Speaker 9 nothing to tell, no deets to share, no goss to spill.

Speaker 19 How's that possible?

Speaker 9 I've really put it out there. I mean, look at what I'm wearing.

Speaker 20 Yeah, bandolier and a loincloth, like always.

Speaker 23 Exactly.

Speaker 24 I don't know what arrows pointing at different shoots.

Speaker 6 And the back of it says

Speaker 9 Listen, I would ask, is there something wrong with me? What is it that I'm not doing for them?

Speaker 9 I have tuped my way across zix.

Speaker 15 This is a sort of heady society, Dar. I don't know if they can.

Speaker 27 Have we checked how they procreate?

Speaker 13 Is tuping even.

Speaker 9 Oh, they do. It's just that they want to make a meaningful connection before they do it.

Speaker 9 And I just want to...

Speaker 6 Dar, maybe it's time to, you know, see if you could make a connection with someone here in this part of of space.

Speaker 29 We're gonna leave this place.

Speaker 9 We're not here for the long haul. I just want to be up front

Speaker 30 and raw.

Speaker 13 I don't know if the raw thing is gonna happen.

Speaker 6 Lead Envoy C53, there is an incoming transmission from Missions Operations, Missions Assignments, and Missions Envoy Associate, Nermit Bonvalore.

Speaker 13 Uh, hey, Nermit, what's up, man?

Speaker 33 Hello.

Speaker 34 Hey,

Speaker 15 one mission in the books, huh?

Speaker 6 Not bad.

Speaker 4 Not bad.

Speaker 9 Yeah, I may have struck out last night, but we nailed that first mission.

Speaker 37 Yeah, I mean, you're telling me that the piece was brokered.

Speaker 38 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 19 Well, I mean, we didn't really do that part, but we did hold down a parking spot for a while. Yeah.

Speaker 9 We held on to that parking spot, and I flew up.

Speaker 13 Yeah, yeah, good job, Bargie.

Speaker 29 Look, I'm not gonna tune my own horn, but now I'm going to.

Speaker 29 That's the captain's horn. You're not the captain anymore.

Speaker 23 This was mine.

Speaker 9 It doesn't have to be just for the captain.

Speaker 14 But I thought that was like your captain's horn.

Speaker 9 I could be really good at this while we were lost in space, AJ.

Speaker 23 Let me have this.

Speaker 24 Just saying, you're not, you know, we gotta follow a protocol. We gotta follow the horse.

Speaker 16 socks.

Speaker 22 Wow, it's funny.

Speaker 9 I can't enjoy the horn, even when I'm not the captain anymore.

Speaker 29 No one can enjoy the horn.

Speaker 37 I think C53, technically, you could probably have that horn now since you're lead envoy.

Speaker 6 Well, it's sort of a moot point as the horn has been destroyed, but also I lack the hands to manipulate the horn or a mouse.

Speaker 16 Alright, so not a position.

Speaker 15 Diaphragm.

Speaker 16 Lips.

Speaker 6 I can still speak. You don't need any of those things to to make yourself heard.
So.

Speaker 37 Sure, there's not a speaker in a marching band, though, so it's kind of.

Speaker 24 Okay, can everyone hear me?

Speaker 22 Why would you ever need a toaster to be that loud?

Speaker 6 If there were a fire risk or any other sort of emergency, I think you'd be thankful your toaster was that loud.

Speaker 21 Wow.

Speaker 37 Oh, sorry, guys, I buried the lead.

Speaker 43 Look.

Speaker 44 Nobody. Wow, Jim.

Speaker 6 Nobody.

Speaker 27 I'm in Optisoft. I'm in

Speaker 45 the software service company that was through the window last time behind me. Why?

Speaker 45 Now I'm in the office.

Speaker 44 Nerman, it's functionally identical to the office you were in last time.

Speaker 6 I'm with Troy, and I can't tell the difference between the two locations you were in.

Speaker 3 I'll tell you what isn't identical, revenue, which is up 55% month over month because of some extremely successful marketing of redundant cloud services.

Speaker 20 You know what, Nerman?

Speaker 31 I'm just glad you're happy.

Speaker 41 You seem happier, honestly, than I've seen you in a long time.

Speaker 27 I mean, look, can you see where the cubicles end?

Speaker 6 No.

Speaker 3 Oh, no. That's the right answer.

Speaker 24 All right.

Speaker 6 Would depress many people, Nerman. But

Speaker 9 guess I can't enjoy any of these horns either.

Speaker 9 No, no, no.

Speaker 29 There's so many. Where did you even get these?

Speaker 11 I've really come to love brass instruments. Oh, Dar.

Speaker 6 Dar is the envoy.

Speaker 11 Listen since you stop throwing these horns about some of them now.

Speaker 11 Well, not horns, but such a spiker talent on the edge of it.

Speaker 11 It's not royalty. It's that.

Speaker 9 Nermit, did you just call so that I would have to empty my room of the joy of music?

Speaker 17 Or do you have a purpose for patching in?

Speaker 3 Yes, indeed.

Speaker 37 I have a mission.

Speaker 3 All right, let's do As we've established, the Coalition of United Planets was very pleased with our first mission, but it did reveal one issue. C-53 lacks a suitable body for the role of lead envoy.

Speaker 45 Wait, Nerman, our mission is to get C-53 a new droid frame?

Speaker 3 Yes.

Speaker 30 Amazing.

Speaker 3 I mean, they of course didn't know what when I say droid frame, they don't seem to know what those words mean, but I've patched it together and a yes, we're going to get a new body for C.

Speaker 3 So this name may not mean much to you yet, but believe me, this is an incredible honor because you will be visiting Dr. Elliot Tromaticor.

Speaker 3 The only robotic scientist in this galaxy who has come close to creating a fully autonomous AI like we have in the Zik Squadron. So

Speaker 3 we're talking about some dynamate here.

Speaker 24 Right. Yeah, I mean, this is...

Speaker 15 As robotics are concerned, this galaxy is sort of...

Speaker 3 Well, they've never seen a sentient ship, so.

Speaker 41 Centuries behind us.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 10 Can I make some pitches as to how they should make sentient ships?

Speaker 13 Some pit.

Speaker 27 You want to pitch sentient ships to this doctor, Bargie?

Speaker 10 Yeah, I mean, I have a list of how we could be better.

Speaker 6 Go for it, Bargie. And my ideal partner.

Speaker 39 Sure. Wow.

Speaker 47 Oh, wait.

Speaker 15 You want to make you want this doctor to make you like a

Speaker 43 bride of Bargie or a but Bargie, what about

Speaker 9 Jeremiah Frankenfurter?

Speaker 24 Yeah, what about Jeremiah?

Speaker 10 We're open, we're fluid.

Speaker 22 Oh,

Speaker 22 that's beautiful.

Speaker 22 That's beautiful, and I'm very happy for both of you.

Speaker 10 Also, I haven't seen him since he was beamed off of me.

Speaker 22 Typical. Yeah, no.

Speaker 45 Jeremiah.

Speaker 9 So it's a very open, very fluid.

Speaker 22 Yeah, Jeremiah's around here.

Speaker 37 Jeremiah's trucking around the synergy.

Speaker 10 No to me. So here's my pitch.
Hold on, I'm printing it out now on my old printer.

Speaker 37 Okay, so that could be something you start with as maybe like uh not

Speaker 19 yeah, laser printer, maybe.

Speaker 16 Or just a laser printer.

Speaker 24 Fine, I love beef and who I am.

Speaker 16 Oh, okay.

Speaker 9 No, oh, no, I know. We would never improve upon Bargie.

Speaker 10 Everything led me to this moment, and I'm okay with who I am.

Speaker 21 Look at Bargy, don't you dare tell me who I am.

Speaker 48 No, totally. Whenever I'm cool with who I am, I always make demands on others.

Speaker 14 That's definitely how I operate.

Speaker 21 Wow.

Speaker 49 The ship should be longer.

Speaker 24 The ship should be longer.

Speaker 9 Oh, you're a size queen.

Speaker 22 I see. Okay.

Speaker 24 They should have.

Speaker 33 This is just a blueprint of like a

Speaker 27 bigger, sexy ship.

Speaker 37 Yeah, you're I mean, not to put a fine point on it, so far you're describing tiny dudes.

Speaker 9 Why?

Speaker 6 This conversation has ended.

Speaker 16 I'm gonna be reprinting back. I'm reprinting back.

Speaker 30 No, but you're going to static.

Speaker 6 of the call because this is not the first time this has happened.

Speaker 15 Well, I guess we should clean up all these broken horns and get on our way, right?

Speaker 9 I'm gonna keep this one tiny horn, though.

Speaker 8 Dar, did you steal that horn from a fenus?

Speaker 9 Yeah, you don't get to have this one, C.

Speaker 9 You can have everything else, including the leadership position.

Speaker 6 Dar, I can't use any horn. I don't understand how this became a point of contention between us.

Speaker 47 Well, hey, C53, this is exciting, right, bud?

Speaker 45 Finally get out of that toaster?

Speaker 47 Maybe you'll get like a cool, maybe get one like with guns in the shoulders or tire treads instead of legs.

Speaker 9 Are you designing your perfect partner right now?

Speaker 30 I don't know. I just bit I'm just spitballing.

Speaker 6 Pleck, would you be excited to have your legs removed and new legs put on?

Speaker 20 Hell yeah, Knight.

Speaker 38 Hell yeah, Rook.

Speaker 6 Okay, and now, what if you were told the person who made those legs had only just figured out how to make the legs?

Speaker 19 I'll think on it. Night.

Speaker 16 Okay.

Speaker 30 Good point, Rook.

Speaker 6 This charisma sold underwear for the rebellion

Speaker 6 on this space station.

Speaker 6 Whoa, plucky prominent scientists might have any number of people working as his support staff.

Speaker 19 Yeah, but there are all those buildings over there and those streets.

Speaker 6 It's sort of like a little, it's like a little town almost.

Speaker 27 Yeah, very retro, too.

Speaker 20 Like all these glass domes covering like an arboretum and laboratories.

Speaker 19 Very cool.

Speaker 6 Well, okay, this fills me with a little bit more confidence. I clearly guess I build a space station.

Speaker 24 Hey there, would you like some free floppy disks?

Speaker 32 Wow, I've never lost confidence so quickly.

Speaker 9 Um, yeah, sure, I'll take a couple.

Speaker 4 I have my music on it.

Speaker 9 Oh, I'm not allowed to enjoy music anymore.

Speaker 22 No, thank you.

Speaker 6 Dar, please.

Speaker 19 Dar, dar.

Speaker 18 Free floppy discs!

Speaker 18 Free floppy discs!

Speaker 6 Could you take the floppy discs?

Speaker 24 Sure.

Speaker 6 You know, toaster slots.

Speaker 47 Maybe I'll give it a listen, you know?

Speaker 16 Do you even have a floppy player?

Speaker 20 No, I mean, I don't know how I would play this at all.

Speaker 41 I mean, it's all ones and zeros at some point, right?

Speaker 15 I can figure it out.

Speaker 6 Can you?

Speaker 38 I mean, not me personally, but that's sort of what I was getting at.

Speaker 41 But that guy wasn't like a scientist or anything.

Speaker 41 Why is he on the space station?

Speaker 49 Can you guys, like, you're taking up the whole sidewalk?

Speaker 5 Oh, you're walking slow? You're really like, what if?

Speaker 19 Yeah,

Speaker 38 can I get by here?

Speaker 21 Okay, guys, are you from here? Guys, guys.

Speaker 24 No, we're not.

Speaker 34 That guy doesn't have the back of a head.

Speaker 6 Oh, fuck.

Speaker 21 Excuse me for trying to get to work, everyone.

Speaker 4 I hope you're having a fun vacation.

Speaker 24 That was a drug.

Speaker 21 Excuse me for trying to get to work, everyone.

Speaker 24 I hope you're having a fun vacation.

Speaker 6 Okay, these are sort of a drink.

Speaker 24 Excuse me for trying to get to work.

Speaker 6 Oh no.

Speaker 38 Excuse me for trying to get trying to do it.

Speaker 11 We should kill them, right? I mean, that's the only

Speaker 24 solution.

Speaker 11 Deactivate them, sorry, deactivating them.

Speaker 42 Yeah, no, I don't think we should do that either.

Speaker 34 Oh, hello there.

Speaker 44 I see you've met my wonderful creations.

Speaker 49 Oh,

Speaker 27 your creations.

Speaker 13 Yes, great.

Speaker 13 I think we're here to see you, actually.

Speaker 11 We're here to see this rich head in the white coat.

Speaker 2 AJ.

Speaker 8 Excuse me, a doctor in the white coat.

Speaker 24 Oh,

Speaker 52 Doctor Elliot Tramaticor.

Speaker 23 Oh, sweet, AJ. What could it mean?

Speaker 24 Hello, Doctor Tramaticor.

Speaker 24 I am C53, a sentient in need of some robotics expertise.

Speaker 53 Yeah, AJ, hold the toaster a little closer so the doctor can hear.

Speaker 55 Your toaster can talk.

Speaker 19 Yes,

Speaker 29 our toaster is a droid.

Speaker 31 He's a droid inside of a toaster.

Speaker 8 Ah, absolutely. May I just.

Speaker 42 Can I hold you?

Speaker 44 Please. Can I just...

Speaker 44 Would you all mind if I just had a word to the side with C53?

Speaker 9 You want to have an aside, just the two of you.

Speaker 6 Whoa, okay.

Speaker 15 It feels weird being on the other side of an aside, I gotta say.

Speaker 9 Yeah, it should feel weird because when I was captain, I would have never done this to this crew.

Speaker 39 What happened?

Speaker 44 What do they how did you what they do to you? Do they do this to you?

Speaker 24 Are you in trouble?

Speaker 5 No, I'm okay.

Speaker 6 Uh, this is my crew.

Speaker 24 Uh, we're part of a group of envoys for crew.

Speaker 28 Um,

Speaker 24 I was in a more advanced frame that was destroyed on a particularly dangerous mission.

Speaker 6 So, currently, this toaster is the only thing that lets me be mobile but also project my voice. And it's well, honestly, it's a little confining.

Speaker 44 Alright, um, sorry, I just have to make sure that he was here on his own free will and perhaps you weren't torturing him.

Speaker 30 What? Torture?

Speaker 24 Boy, is that common?

Speaker 24 Doctor Tromaticora.

Speaker 56 Yes.

Speaker 18 I have the files you wanted me to process inside of my data.

Speaker 44 Thank you so much, Sharon.

Speaker 9 You could have given Sharon any voice, but you wanted Sharon to sound like this.

Speaker 44 Yes, every being, if you will, that's what they are to me, has their own take on, well, parts of my past.

Speaker 6 Oh, so this Sharon is sort of a reflection of somebody you used to know?

Speaker 38 Yes.

Speaker 44 With slight altercations to the original Sharon, obviously.

Speaker 4 What are the alterations?

Speaker 4 Doctor Trimaticor?

Speaker 44 Yes, Sharon.

Speaker 18 Here are the documents. I think you're the greatest sentient ever.

Speaker 46 I would never not date

Speaker 9 on what the changes are.

Speaker 38 Puzzle it out. What are the differences?

Speaker 19 Sorry, is Sharon is Sharon your girlfriend, Dr.

Speaker 52 Trimaticor?

Speaker 44 Uh, well, we're not I we don't want to jinx it, you know, it's still kind of recent.

Speaker 44 But the old Sharon she was seeing someone so when I asked her out, you know, I you know, it was like okay, we're just gonna we're just gonna be co-workers because you're in a situation right with your professional

Speaker 44 This Sharon, believe it or not, this Sharon's single and she actually asked me out. So it's just a way

Speaker 44 I know so you're into Sharon, you know, but why

Speaker 4 do you like off-putting

Speaker 38 personalities or I'm sorry, I just want to

Speaker 44 you've come here because your friend is trapped in a toaster. You need my help to get him into a better body.

Speaker 44 But along the way, you want to ask me about my personal relationship with Sharon, both of us, whom you just met.

Speaker 38 I just want to make sure.

Speaker 38 It's a little inappropriate. It's a little inappropriate.

Speaker 41 Sorry, Dr. Trematicore.
But just to clarify, there are no other real people on this space station.

Speaker 19 Everyone's a robot except you?

Speaker 55 I... Yes.
The short answer is yes.

Speaker 30 Wait, what's the long answer?

Speaker 44 Listen, we can talk about how I've created what I've created here and what it took, or we can help your friend in his body.

Speaker 32 Talk to you.

Speaker 44 But I'll give you both by giving you a short story.

Speaker 44 Oh, why don't you come in?

Speaker 6 Oh, absolutely.

Speaker 11 Yeah, everything.

Speaker 34 Hey, you want to go do some teenage things down by the creek?

Speaker 3 Just change the oil on the red and she'll run for you.

Speaker 34 There is your local podiatrist.

Speaker 44 These are hermenoids. You see, I've been at this station for quite some time now, and the planet I'm from in this galaxy, Girth.

Speaker 55 I don't know if you're familiar with this galaxy.

Speaker 38 Okay, is it big?

Speaker 55 It was big.

Speaker 44 It no longer exists. Really bad Herman just destroyed Girth a long time ago.

Speaker 9 I bet it it was pretty girthy.

Speaker 44 It's a little insensitive.

Speaker 7 My home planet's destroyed.

Speaker 49 Sorry, I'm just.

Speaker 9 I'm not myself today.

Speaker 55 Clearly, you all aren't from here.

Speaker 6 No.

Speaker 13 Morning, Dr. T.

Speaker 15 Another beautiful day on Girth.

Speaker 41 Hello. This planet that still exists.

Speaker 14 Oh, okay. So you're traumatized from your planet blowing up until you've like recreated all these robots to be all the people that you love that you lost.

Speaker 16 PG!

Speaker 24 Yeah, you you guys

Speaker 22 sort of doubled down on what you just said we shouldn't be doing.

Speaker 9 I'm feeling great.

Speaker 24 I'm feeling great.

Speaker 11 But you never said that, but I intuited.

Speaker 24 He has like a tear kind of in his eye right now.

Speaker 44 That was honestly spot on.

Speaker 31 And it brings up a lot of.

Speaker 24 You're okay with AJ saying that?

Speaker 55 I'm not okay with him saying it. It just happens to be spot on.
It doesn't change the fact that it's rooted. It hurts my feelings.

Speaker 39 Elliot's

Speaker 34 right. I'm going to work and I will return.

Speaker 28 Little boy.

Speaker 55 Have a good day, father.

Speaker 5 I will.

Speaker 30 It won't be my last.

Speaker 34 Oh, no.

Speaker 24 Whoa.

Speaker 43 So his actual dad is like totally dead, and that robot recreates his last day over and over because that totally wrong reminded that he's dead.

Speaker 16 AJ,

Speaker 9 that was a step too far.

Speaker 5 Wow.

Speaker 44 It's just, I don't know anything about any of you other than the fact that you need me to help your friend.

Speaker 6 Doctor is lead envoy. I have have to apologize for my crew.
It's not really their place to question.

Speaker 50 Wow.

Speaker 39 Wow.

Speaker 9 Not our place.

Speaker 17 No more questions from the Peanut Gallery.

Speaker 6 Dark!

Speaker 47 Okay, Dark.

Speaker 19 AJ, let's just leave them to it, okay?

Speaker 45 Dr.

Speaker 27 Tramaticork, could we actually maybe just stroll through your beautiful space station?

Speaker 7 Oh, please.

Speaker 15 Great, wonderful. We'll try not to tupe anything up.

Speaker 14 Yeah, are they all going to be talking about how they're not gonna die? Is that gonna be kind of something?

Speaker 49 We will talk about this later. Okay, cool.

Speaker 38 Oh, just don't sign up for any email. Don't give anyone your email while you're here.

Speaker 42 Hey, Darn, um,

Speaker 15 I feel like things got just a little bit heated back there with Dr.

Speaker 27 Tramaticor.

Speaker 39 Ugh, I know.

Speaker 45 And really with C-53 as well.

Speaker 9 It's not that I'm upset about the demotion, it's just that,

Speaker 34 ugh, I can't help but kind of

Speaker 9 revert to the Dar I was before I had a leadership position, you know?

Speaker 15 Yeah, you know, you kind of rose to the occasion as captain.

Speaker 9 Yeah, and then now that I'm not the captain, I kind of get to be the same surly but horny alien that I was before.

Speaker 48 Sure, but Captain Darr, isn't that exactly what you might say if you were, you know, like making excuses for rude behavior and didn't want anyone to know how upset you were?

Speaker 33 Wow, AJ, you are really diagnosing everybody today.

Speaker 13 I mean, they did destroy like 30 brass instruments.

Speaker 24 That's not really surly or horny.

Speaker 19 So, I mean, if anything, it's anti-horny, right?

Speaker 38 Because horny.

Speaker 39 Excuse me.

Speaker 40 Sorry. I am Dr.
Traumatic Horse psychiatrist.

Speaker 40 And I've noticed there's some emotional problems happening in this circle of Zentiens.

Speaker 11 See, Cutar, even this tuped-up robot sees what's going on.

Speaker 38 Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 21 Yes.

Speaker 18 Would you like me to prescribe you something? Like me to prescribe

Speaker 28 something.

Speaker 9 If we say yes, will that stop that twitch in your neck?

Speaker 19 No.

Speaker 38 Oh, no.

Speaker 42 Then we're probably good, I think.

Speaker 24 We're fine.

Speaker 22 Hustle. Okay.

Speaker 38 Hustle down this corridor if we want to click.

Speaker 38 Whatever you're feeling, it's normal.

Speaker 33 Some of these robots are really creepy.

Speaker 19 I mean, is this what Girth was like?

Speaker 36 Excuse, excuse.

Speaker 44 My name is Michael Michael.

Speaker 36 Would you like to donate to my school's dog ball team?

Speaker 20 I don't have.

Speaker 55 We're post-money.

Speaker 38 We're post-money.

Speaker 44 Zodball helps so many of the youth in troubled neighborhoods.

Speaker 29 How do you know, Dr.

Speaker 9 Tramaticore?

Speaker 38 Michael,

Speaker 47 would you like

Speaker 30 to dup, dup, dup?

Speaker 32 I, I, I,

Speaker 32 I can't.

Speaker 28 I'm just gonna sign.

Speaker 24 I'm gonna sign and just I probably won't do anything about it, but I'm just gonna sign.

Speaker 49 Thank you.

Speaker 13 Is there a single normal robot on this space station?

Speaker 39 It's me, your aunt.

Speaker 22 Please come into my bosom.

Speaker 30 Oh no.

Speaker 24 What?

Speaker 30 Her arms are so big.

Speaker 6 It's me.

Speaker 4 Please come into my wosom.

Speaker 4 Wow, this ant has to be. I'm in you everywhere.

Speaker 4 I am

Speaker 4 a win.

Speaker 34 We gotta get out of here.

Speaker 24 We gotta get out of here.

Speaker 36 The ants' arms were built twice as large as they should be, and we're trying to retire this model.

Speaker 30 Who are you?

Speaker 21 I'm so sorry.

Speaker 24 Who are you?

Speaker 35 You're not a- you're not a

Speaker 35 an android?

Speaker 36 You're a the ant's arms were a bit of a bit too large as they are supposed to be, so we're retiring them.

Speaker 30 Oh no, it's a robotic version of an apologetic engineer.

Speaker 28 We gotta go!

Speaker 28 Go, go!

Speaker 28 No! Oh no!

Speaker 6 Well so Dr. Tromaticork, if you just sort of pop the latch on the back of the toaster, you'll be able to see my cube there.
That's where my sentience is actually stored.

Speaker 19 My word, this is.

Speaker 44 I've never seen anything this technologically advanced. Only now am I realizing I've been half-assing it.

Speaker 6 Oh, that's pain.

Speaker 6 You know, Doctor, you haven't had any contemporaries working on artificial intelligence.

Speaker 32 You had no one to bounce ideas off of, you know, it's very difficult.

Speaker 44 With this technology, I could possibly go full ass.

Speaker 6 Uh, yeah, I hope you do. Uh, I'm looking to have a full ass frame.

Speaker 38 I think I have it.

Speaker 16 Okay, well, really?

Speaker 44 How do you feel about plaid?

Speaker 6 Ooh, um,

Speaker 32 you know what?

Speaker 6 I'm willing to give it a shout. Doctor, my sentience is in your capable hands.

Speaker 7 Just checking, you can't feel pain, right?

Speaker 32 Uh, it actually depends on the construction of the frame, so. Hmm.

Speaker 4 Okay.

Speaker 27 Don't worry.

Speaker 6 I wish you hadn't asked that question

Speaker 4 right now, but.

Speaker 4 Okay.

Speaker 4 Okay. I think we lost that ant with the giant arms.

Speaker 52 Yeah.

Speaker 4 I think we're good.

Speaker 45 But this town, this town of robots, it just keeps going.

Speaker 30 This space station must have thousands of robots on it.

Speaker 19 It's insane.

Speaker 4 That's really crazy.

Speaker 38 Guy must get real bored and lonely out here.

Speaker 47 They're all in their own endless loops of their routines. At first, it looks like a real city, but you look closer and they're all just doing the same thing over and over again.

Speaker 57 Your book report was so great.

Speaker 57 A star.

Speaker 9 I mean, I'll take that star sticker.

Speaker 38 Well, this loop is very short.

Speaker 4 Wait,

Speaker 9 I'll take another sticker.

Speaker 57 Your book report was so great.

Speaker 4 A-star.

Speaker 4 Oh, wow.

Speaker 24 Oh, don't mind if I do

Speaker 31 Three stars for dark.

Speaker 53 Alright, let's go.

Speaker 57 Your book report was solid.

Speaker 9 A-star! Fleck just a sec. I'll take another.

Speaker 35 Thank you.

Speaker 43 Yeah, taking meaningless accolades from a robot is definitely something you do if you had no self-esteem issues.

Speaker 33 Yep.

Speaker 33 Yep.

Speaker 33 Good stuff.

Speaker 38 Okay.

Speaker 43 The creepy thing is that the star comes out of her mouth.

Speaker 53 Yeah, it's always on the tip of her tongue.

Speaker 3 Oh, hey, hey, everyone.

Speaker 3 I'm sorry to bug you. Have you seen like a gray leather wallet? No, man.

Speaker 20 Sorry. No, man.

Speaker 5 Bummer.

Speaker 5 Yeah, sorry.

Speaker 5 Do you need to borrow

Speaker 35 something?

Speaker 24 I mean...

Speaker 9 You haven't walked off. You're just sitting there running your hands over your...

Speaker 3 I just, I'm certain it was here, so one of you must have taken it.

Speaker 38 We just got it.

Speaker 9 I just stuck around to accuse us of stealing it.

Speaker 24 Okay.

Speaker 13 Okay, good luck. I'll let you know if it turns up.

Speaker 47 Now, is that a robot who was programmed to not know where his wallet was?

Speaker 44 Or is that a robot that was programmed to do something else and he's lost his wallet?

Speaker 36 Hey, everyone.

Speaker 3 Sorry, did you see a guy looking for a gray wallet?

Speaker 52 Yeah, yeah, we did.

Speaker 38 He went that way, but it looks just like you.

Speaker 3 He took my wallet and then he lost it.

Speaker 31 I see what's happening.

Speaker 24 I see what's happening. There's

Speaker 20 sort of a dual thing where they are part of their loop is stealing each other's wallet.

Speaker 38 There's one wallet between the two of them.

Speaker 9 So then, whose wallet are you looking for?

Speaker 4 So I'm looking for their wallet, too.

Speaker 24 This is all programmed? Yeah.

Speaker 13 How what part of what part of Girth does this reflect is my question.

Speaker 4 My nose is bleeding.

Speaker 38 It shouldn't be.

Speaker 4 How are they programmed to do this loop?

Speaker 6 What's going on? I'm gonna go look for that body.

Speaker 3 Hey, everyone, did you see a couple of guys?

Speaker 24 No, there's a flat one?

Speaker 3 One of them said they lost a wallet, the other one claimed it was their wallet.

Speaker 47 Well, what's the truth?

Speaker 3 Oh, I was hoping you knew. It's just crazy, right? That's crazy.

Speaker 54 I don't know. Wait a second.

Speaker 3 This is crazy, but I j I don't have my wallet.

Speaker 24 I don't know.

Speaker 46 I knew it. I knew it.

Speaker 31 Guys, we gotta get out of here. This is

Speaker 3 I don't like no questions asked, but if one of you took it, can I have it back?

Speaker 20 I don't have your wallet, man. I think one of those other two guys probably has it.

Speaker 43 Okay, but you also have a friend who's programmed to help you, I guess.

Speaker 41 Has anyone seen this wallet?

Speaker 4 There's another woman? Like, why is there another woman?

Speaker 51 We lost this wallet.

Speaker 4 We're trying to look for the wallet.

Speaker 38 Okay, we're leaving.

Speaker 34 Good luck.

Speaker 23 That's why I always use a fanny pack.

Speaker 58 So, Doctor, I know you might not be familiar with the cube interface that my sentience is stored in, but I could actually probably run you through where the most likely connections from my central processing unit to whatever, you know, servo control you're on.

Speaker 44 I'm actually done.

Speaker 28 Oh, wow.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 53 You were.

Speaker 44 Yeah, I knocked you out. Like when you told me you might feel pain, I just I took care of it.
I shut you down for a moment. I took care of everything.
You're done here.

Speaker 44 My god.

Speaker 49 This frame is indistinguishable from an organic body.

Speaker 59 I can't. I've never seen anything like this.

Speaker 44 I know it's a lot to take in right now.

Speaker 44 You were speaking to me, you were going back and forth.

Speaker 7 You're here now.

Speaker 33 It was like a blip, and now,

Speaker 39 Doctor, am I.

Speaker 33 Is this body based on somebody you knew?

Speaker 44 Yeah, I had a roommate in college. His name was Jeremy.

Speaker 55 Real dick.

Speaker 44 But I think...

Speaker 44 But I think it'll fit you much better than it fit the original Jeremy.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 8 Here's the thing.

Speaker 44 Nothing about anyone you came here with, but it seems like it fits the crew you're with. It's very unassuming.

Speaker 44 You have arms and legs. Again, you went from a toaster.
It seems like you were almost useless, perhaps physically before your old state.

Speaker 49 Doctor, there's no... I have no sensors.

Speaker 33 I have no infrared. I'm not connecting to the sort of greater data sphere at all.
I mean, it seems like this is just a regular organic body.

Speaker 25 It seems like.

Speaker 34 Yeah, it seems like.

Speaker 33 Yeah.

Speaker 44 You have many surprises I filled you with.

Speaker 33 This is my body. I don't want surprises.
Let's have some specifics here, Doctor.

Speaker 44 I kept some of your toaster elements.

Speaker 44 Just in case.

Speaker 33 Doctor, that was... I don't know if I made that clear, but it was very not necessary to do that.

Speaker 19 Is this my voice?

Speaker 50 Is this what I sound like?

Speaker 25 This is how Jeremy sounded.

Speaker 42 Okay.

Speaker 33 Where are the toaster parts?

Speaker 44 If I just told you how everything worked and where it was located, wouldn't that take out some of the fun of it? Don't you want some self-discovery?

Speaker 33 You have to understand. For me, this is a very.

Speaker 42 Wow, these are my hands, huh?

Speaker 44 Yeah, if you've got fingers now.

Speaker 43 Yeah.

Speaker 33 I mean, I've had fingers before, but these are really.

Speaker 43 I even have nails.

Speaker 44 Let's play just a small getting to know ourselves game. What was something that you.
What was your thing in your old body?

Speaker 33 I mean, I guess if I had a thing, it was sort of. You know, I'm the knowledgeable one.

Speaker 27 I sort of have most information

Speaker 33 sort of quick at hand.

Speaker 44 Just going to shoot this one at you, and you just say what comes to your mind first. Sure.

Speaker 24 All right.

Speaker 44 Five times five.

Speaker 33 25.

Speaker 7 Great.

Speaker 33 That sort of took longer than it normally does.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 5 If I

Speaker 44 were leaving from a train station,

Speaker 44 point A at 3:45

Speaker 52 p.m.

Speaker 1 Sure.

Speaker 44 Let's just say point A was 400 kilometers from point B.

Speaker 33 Okay, I'm getting you mostly here. Yeah.

Speaker 44 And you're riding your space tricycle. Okay.
Okay, which doesn't go very fast. Sure.
Three miles per hour.

Speaker 33 Okay, so different units.

Speaker 33 Okay.

Speaker 44 How long would it take you to get from point A to point B on a space tricycle?

Speaker 38 Jeez.

Speaker 55 You told me you were a very knowledgeable being, so I didn't hear you to handle both.

Speaker 8 units.

Speaker 49 Do you have like a pencil and paper or something?

Speaker 13 Did you use a paper and a pencil before?

Speaker 33 No, but I can't

Speaker 22 seem to

Speaker 50 work it out.

Speaker 38 Surprise.

Speaker 30 Surprise what?

Speaker 33 Surprise you made me less useful?

Speaker 44 You had everything just come to you with the blink of an eye. You could solve any question, any problem.

Speaker 44 And maybe that helped the missions you were on or whatever activities you were forced to do.

Speaker 33 Yes, it did. It was extremely useful.

Speaker 7 But did it make you happy?

Speaker 33 Yes.

Speaker 44 Well,

Speaker 44 I missed it on. I'm sorry.

Speaker 25 I dropped the ball on this.

Speaker 7 I apologize.

Speaker 22 Doc. I thought you were on.

Speaker 50 I assumed.

Speaker 44 I made so many assumptions at the beginning of this process.

Speaker 21 Wow. I figured you were almost like a miserable brain slave for them, you know?

Speaker 44 They just use you when they need you to give them information and they just forced you into this toaster, but you were too afraid to say anything about it.

Speaker 52 I thought I was freeing you.

Speaker 44 I thought the knowledge was crippling you, and I just thought not being as perfect would make you a happier sentient.

Speaker 33 You know, honestly, I think you might be doing me a favor if you put me back inside the toaster.

Speaker 44 That's not possible.

Speaker 33 What do you mean that's not possible?

Speaker 50 Just not possible.

Speaker 44 I took it completely apart.

Speaker 6 Oh, come on!

Speaker 60 They were your shackles!

Speaker 8 I destroyed them!

Speaker 33 Wait a second, what did you do with my cube? Did you upload me into this weird new body?

Speaker 1 It's right here.

Speaker 44 It's right here in your chest.

Speaker 44 You follow the nipple line and

Speaker 38 stopping.

Speaker 13 Stephanie's touching my chest.

Speaker 44 Just want want you to know where your body is and how it works.

Speaker 34 I get it.

Speaker 19 I get it.

Speaker 44 I like to think of it as little cubed heart.

Speaker 33 Well, it's a terrible analogy because it's my brain more than anything. So.

Speaker 30 What is this?

Speaker 47 What? Is there water coming out of my head?

Speaker 7 Yeah, you're sweating. You're sweating.

Speaker 29 Why would you make a frame that sweats?

Speaker 50 I just don't you want to feel the experience of life.

Speaker 33 Not this part of life. This sucks.

Speaker 52 It's clammy and weird.

Speaker 22 I hate this.

Speaker 55 Listen, a Herman's life is filled with plight.

Speaker 39 I am making

Speaker 39 a Herman.

Speaker 33 Also, did Jeremy yell a lot? I feel like I'm yelling way more than I used to.

Speaker 44 Listen, I said Jeremy was a dick, but he had his moments. And I've made you a better version of Jeremy.

Speaker 52 Jeremy's not bad.

Speaker 33 Jeremy sucks.

Speaker 33 That's right, people. Ride it like you stole it.

Speaker 26 Feel your heart pumping as you own that hill.

Speaker 18 I, Sisu Gundu, I'm proud to be not only the author of my new book, Making It Work in a New Galaxy, available for free at the ship's bookstore because apparently books are free here, but also the newest and tightest spin instructor here at the Synergy's Gymnasium.

Speaker 18 You are taking care of your bodies, and that's what matters. Woo! And don't forget to take care of your inner self as well.

Speaker 18 And what better way to do it than with BetterHelp, an official sponsor of the Coalition of United Planets. Don't let up people.
Hey, I mean you, Cherskin.

Speaker 18 Now, BetterHelp is a customized online therapy that offers video, phone, and even live chat sessions. You know, they'll match you with a therapist in under 48 hours.
I said 48.

Speaker 26 And I've heard that's how long this class feels.

Speaker 18 I know that was a joke. Okay, let's increase that resistance.
Corkskin, I'm looking at you.

Speaker 18 And remember, you don't need a traumatic event like an interdimensional rift, a messy on and off again divorce, or a galactic rulership snatched out from under you to benefit from therapy.

Speaker 18 Maybe you're feeling anxious or depressed, or you're stressed because you feel like it's too much to manage.

Speaker 18 Well, get some tools to cope and make life just a little bit easier, but let's make this ride harder.

Speaker 18 Ride to the the beat under your feet. Plus, BetterHelp is way more affordable than in-person therapy, but can be just as effective.

Speaker 18 And unlike the ship's holographic therapists, all named Tilda, BetterHelp's therapists are actual real people.

Speaker 29 I miss real people. See if it's for you.

Speaker 18 Riders in this class get 10% off their first month at betterhealth.com/slash zix. That's betterh.com slash zix.
The finish line is yours. Hey, keep it it up.

Speaker 51 Three, two, one, woo! Yeah!

Speaker 18 Oh, wow, you all brought it. Each and every one of you.

Speaker 29 Even Cursken.

Speaker 18 I can't. I'm sorry, I can't say your name.

Speaker 26 Okay, betterhealth.com/slash zicks.

Speaker 22 Uh, Pleck, I just want to say it was a good intention.

Speaker 9 Removing me from the room with C and the doctor. I was getting heated in there, but um

Speaker 29 I've not enjoyed exploring this place.

Speaker 20 This has been much weirder.

Speaker 31 I wish we had stayed with C53 because that at least seemed normal.

Speaker 29 It was at least a person

Speaker 20 acting in a normal way.

Speaker 11 Alright, I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.

Speaker 43 I can find this wallet.

Speaker 24 I'm sure it's AJ

Speaker 24 digging.

Speaker 15 No, stop.

Speaker 24 It doesn't matter. Gotta be.

Speaker 24 Excuse me.

Speaker 9 Oh, great. And here's the doctor.

Speaker 54 Are you rubbaging in my trash?

Speaker 49 What's happening over here?

Speaker 38 Who are you? Who are you, people?

Speaker 44 Why are you at my station?

Speaker 56 Was he this old when we talked to him earlier?

Speaker 4 It's like the one that we met, but older somehow.

Speaker 13 Sorry, Dr.

Speaker 56 Tramaticor, were you wearing that white suit and walking with that cane when we talked to you earlier?

Speaker 24 Was your hair lighter or were you wrinkled?

Speaker 4 Is this a timey wimey thing?

Speaker 53 It better not be a timey wimey thing.

Speaker 13 Maybe it is. I can't even.

Speaker 45 Where's C53?

Speaker 4 Who?

Speaker 13 C-53, the robot that we left you with.

Speaker 38 The toaster you've been helping.

Speaker 44 The toaster I've been helping.

Speaker 62 Hold on a second.

Speaker 20 You don't know who we are?

Speaker 44 No, I've made everyone here, so I don't... None of you seem like anything I've created.

Speaker 15 You've made everyone here.

Speaker 20 But we met you earlier.

Speaker 13 So one of you- either you or the other Doctor Traumatic Core is a robot.

Speaker 53 Oh, the other Doctor Traumatic.

Speaker 44 Yes, you ran into my double. I.

Speaker 9 How can you say that so casually? You ran into my double.

Speaker 44 Yes, you see, I made a double of myself in the prime of my life.

Speaker 19 What? Oh, I hate this robot.

Speaker 13 We gave our robot to your robot?

Speaker 9 Wait, wait, wait. Now, now, let's not jump to conclusions.
This could be the robot, and we were responsible and gave C to the non-robot.

Speaker 9 AJ, check them for parts.

Speaker 11 Okay.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that's real.

Speaker 4 Those are guts.

Speaker 9 Yep, tickle them under the armpits. That's it.

Speaker 29 That's the way to do it.

Speaker 4 Stop that. I feel

Speaker 4 I am a doctor.

Speaker 4 Okay, yeah,

Speaker 52 that's right.

Speaker 52 You don't tickle doctors.

Speaker 8 I don't know where Downcy you're from.

Speaker 49 Where I'm from, you do not tickle doctors.

Speaker 55 Get a hold of yourselves.

Speaker 9 We don't tickle doctors where we're from either. This is

Speaker 24 all normal.

Speaker 24 Don't worry about that.

Speaker 20 Well, listen, Doctor, it's great to meet you finally, but we need to find our protocol droid. I think we may have accidentally given him to your double.

Speaker 4 Did you bring your droid here for me to work on it?

Speaker 38 That was the plan. That was the intention.

Speaker 44 The thing is, I'm from a planet called Girth, and I'm the only survivor of it.

Speaker 38 Uh-huh.

Speaker 53 I've been here so long alone that at one point I started to miss the nuances of Girth.

Speaker 44 So I started to make all these flawed robots just to remind me of the not-so-great part of Girth as well.

Speaker 9 No kidding.

Speaker 53 But

Speaker 31 one of the robots you made is

Speaker 4 you.

Speaker 7 Yeah, I.

Speaker 44 Let's just say at one point I wanted to break down who I was on the inside.

Speaker 44 I don't know how to explain it, but I wanted to make a better version of myself, but I fell short in some ways.

Speaker 31 And that's who has C-53.

Speaker 9 The

Speaker 9 bad version of you.

Speaker 4 Oh, well, I don't.

Speaker 44 Why did you leave him with

Speaker 47 because he was you?

Speaker 8 He said he was you.

Speaker 43 Yeah, he's gonna put our friend in a new body.

Speaker 4 He's making him a new robot body.

Speaker 44 Oh, is that what he told you he was going to do? I mean,

Speaker 54 he wants to.

Speaker 44 He's literally me, so he wants to build an event, but he hasn't quite been able to actually assemble anything.

Speaker 44 I don't quite have the technology for him to understand.

Speaker 38 Doctor, you have to excuse us.

Speaker 35 We're feeling an overwhelming need to run back to C-53 right now.

Speaker 38 Oh, yeah, we should not be be talking to you if we don't know where C-53 is.

Speaker 2 Whoa.

Speaker 6 I'm not a robot. This is a super soldier.

Speaker 5 You're very strong.

Speaker 11 What's with the wallet, guys?

Speaker 38 Oh, the wallet, guys.

Speaker 55 You haven't seen a great wallet, have you?

Speaker 55 That's a little scientist humor.

Speaker 49 I was just, I was messing with you.

Speaker 55 I know it drives me quick.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 44 He never finds it.

Speaker 61 Is there a wallet, though? Is it somewhere?

Speaker 44 There is a wallet somewhere.

Speaker 24 Really?

Speaker 38 Do you

Speaker 4 have the wallet?

Speaker 33 No, but I'll give you a hint.

Speaker 56 It's in the first place that robot looked.

Speaker 38 Oh, no.

Speaker 56 But he's not programmed to look there again.

Speaker 24 Exactly.

Speaker 24 My nose is bleeding.

Speaker 25 Okay, I think you're all done here, C-53.

Speaker 33 No, no, no, no, no, doctor, listen, I don't know what you did here, but I'm gonna need a different.

Speaker 33 This is

Speaker 49 it's got so many problems.

Speaker 54 Oh, master, I didn't know that you would.

Speaker 24 I did it!

Speaker 49 I finally did it!

Speaker 44 I've created my first hermenoid.

Speaker 38 Wait a minute.

Speaker 34 What the What is going on?

Speaker 33 I'm the first hermenoid you've ever created?

Speaker 29 Who is this person?

Speaker 34 Shouting aloud. Who is this?

Speaker 24 Nobody even recognizes me.

Speaker 13 Who is this guy who's yelling a lot? Where is C-53?

Speaker 21 Here. Here is C-53.

Speaker 22 C-53.

Speaker 33 Your?

Speaker 60 C-53, that's you?

Speaker 22 Yes, I did not pick the plaid pants, okay?

Speaker 9 Did you pick the toaster slots in your butt?

Speaker 29 How do you- Are those visible?

Speaker 13 Where are those?

Speaker 9 That's the first thing I noticed.

Speaker 34 Oh.

Speaker 11 It's a full-ass hermeneutic.

Speaker 29 Wow, C-53, you look amazing.

Speaker 45 You look exactly like Tellurian, you know, except with a couple of ridges in your head.

Speaker 24 Oh, barf, am I right?

Speaker 33 Ugh, this is a nightmare.

Speaker 30 Man,

Speaker 45 how did you do it, Dr.

Speaker 27 Tramaticore?

Speaker 33 Wait a minute, wait a minute. Why are you talking to him? This is Dr.
Tramaticore.

Speaker 55 Well, we're actually both Dr. Tramaticore.

Speaker 54 But

Speaker 54 I'm the Herman, Tramaticore.

Speaker 55 He's the Hermenoid Trimaticore.

Speaker 5 Oh, come on.

Speaker 45 No, no, no, no, no. C-53, this is incredible.

Speaker 56 See, Dr.

Speaker 27 Tromaticore created Dr.

Speaker 60 Tromaticore, and then he created you.

Speaker 33 He did not create me.

Speaker 13 He created your body.

Speaker 33 The difference is significant.

Speaker 38 Okay.

Speaker 29 But look, this is exactly what you wanted.

Speaker 5 This is a.

Speaker 33 This is not what I wanted.

Speaker 38 Okay.

Speaker 13 This is a perfect droid frame for you.

Speaker 27 You can go anywhere.

Speaker 45 You can do anything that we can do.

Speaker 34 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 13 What are you an expert on droid frames all of a sudden?

Speaker 21 This frame is terrible.

Speaker 13 What's terrible about it?

Speaker 33 No infrared. No ultraviolet.
I'm bad at math all of a sudden. Yeah.

Speaker 33 I sweat.

Speaker 52 Why? Why?

Speaker 33 Now I'm getting red when I yell.

Speaker 24 This is terrible.

Speaker 22 This is awesome.

Speaker 55 I'll be honest.

Speaker 44 I can fix anything you feel is wrong with you, but I have to say,

Speaker 44 I don't want to step on Dr. Tromaticore's toes.

Speaker 55 Listen, I'm quite taken aback. You'll have to forgive me.

Speaker 44 I'm having a moment.

Speaker 38 You see,

Speaker 7 I made

Speaker 2 these

Speaker 54 hermenoids to reflect what I thought was Herman life.

Speaker 55 I played the great creator, if you will.

Speaker 5 But now, in watching

Speaker 44 Dr.

Speaker 38 Tromaticore create its own sentient being,

Speaker 5 it seems that the Hermenoid has become the Herman. No.

Speaker 24 Well, it hasn't.

Speaker 45 C-53, just let him be.

Speaker 29 He's an old man.

Speaker 38 Just let him be.

Speaker 34 Fine, fine.

Speaker 33 Let him do whatever he wants. Everyone, just do whatever you want.
I'm going back to the ship.

Speaker 44 Master, it sounds like what you're saying is I'm a Herman too.

Speaker 7 Right.

Speaker 44 In fact, perhaps you're not my master, you're my peer.

Speaker 44 Wait a minute.

Speaker 50 If I'm my own true version of Dr.

Speaker 44 Tramaticor.

Speaker 49 Guys, I feel like this might take a while.

Speaker 49 I feel like this might go on for a little while.

Speaker 5 We should probably get a little bit of a drink.

Speaker 33 Yeah, listen, I'm done with this.

Speaker 24 So whenever you're ready, go back to the ship.

Speaker 38 Lead the way, C.

Speaker 32 Has anyone seen a gray wallet?

Speaker 16 No!

Speaker 24 Get out of here!

Speaker 10 Has anyone seen this wallet?

Speaker 16 What boy?

Speaker 44 Oh, by the way.

Speaker 44 Since you are the first

Speaker 44 hermenoid that I've made, I just want to be able to keep in touch, you know, from here and there.

Speaker 7 So before you all.

Speaker 38 I just did your email just to stay in touch.

Speaker 35 That was your advice.

Speaker 44 Oh, what's the worst that could happen? It's an email. I'm not going to blast you constantly.

Speaker 55 It's not going to be overwhelming.

Speaker 7 Just check in here and there. Sure.

Speaker 50 You update. So what's happening?

Speaker 49 And then all of a sudden,

Speaker 33 I'm getting deals offered to me.

Speaker 55 Yeah, Herman, Doctor, is that a good idea?

Speaker 53 I just...

Speaker 44 I don't want to shoot him down.

Speaker 55 He's nothing so great today. I don't.

Speaker 43 Don't give him your email.

Speaker 5 Do not give him your email. Okay, all right.

Speaker 5 All right, stop Lester.

Speaker 25 Listen, Doctor, Doctor, this has been enlightening.

Speaker 27 And, you know, even though I think C53 is still kind of processing what's happening,

Speaker 20 I think you've done him a real favor today.

Speaker 7 Let's go already.

Speaker 24 Wow, right out of the butt.

Speaker 44 Now that that's hot, that's crispy.

Speaker 44 You want to get the butter on that, it'll melt instantly.

Speaker 33 I'm not going to eat.

Speaker 33 Are you saying I have to eat now?

Speaker 55 Yes, you have to eat to live now. I'm sorry.
I should have made that clear. Come on.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 22 Come on.

Speaker 22 This is Sea Red IT5.

Speaker 62 The Greatest Generation is a podcast about Star Trek by a couple of hosts a little bit embarrassed to even have a Star Trek podcast. Hosted by me, Ben Harrison, and me, Adam Pranica.

Speaker 61 We get into the critical, the technical, the science fictional aspects of the show we love while roasting it and each other at the same time.

Speaker 62 We've completed an entire series about Star Trek the Next Generation and another one about Star Trek Deep Space Nine and we've just begun Star Trek Voyager.

Speaker 62 So now is a great time to start watching a new Star Trek series with us.
