In today's podcast, Dana and Dan discuss The Next Generation episode "Unification, Part II." Spock does his best to reunify the Vulcan and Romulan empires. In doing so, he encounters an annoying little kid, a Romulan played by a person with very poor acting skills, and an overweight Ferengi.

This week Dana and Dan discuss episode 2 of Season 3, "The Enterprise Incident." If you like spies and intrigue with a little Vulcan romance thrown in then this episode is for you. Kirk takes the Enterprise into the Romulan Neutral Zone and risks losing his ship... or is he just losing his mind? The guys also ramble about ricotta cheese, donating blood, and Spock doing the Romulan Rumba.   Donating blood is hugely important, and donations are desperately needed this time of year. Dana and Dan urge you to donate. Go to https://www.redcrossblood.org/ to schedule a donation today.   We'd love to hear from you! Call the Damnit Jim Hotline at 509-676-6298.
