Welcome to Star Trek: Highly Illogical - The Next Degeneration! THE IDEALISTIC IDEALIST INCIDENT The most nonsensical Star Trek podcast in subspace beams back into your face with a brand new format. We take a randomly generated Star Trek story synopsis and flesh it out into a full episode. We "break the story", as they say in the Star Trek writers' room. Join us as we create a full episode featuring the terrifying, triumphant return of everyone's favourite Cardassian as he squares off against B'Elanna Torres! Find out what's happened between B'Elanna and Tom since they arrived back on Earth. How does Harry Kim help save the day? Did he finally get a promotion (spoiler alert: no)?
