This week, Clayton and Mattie talk about culture the week of January 16, 2002 and S1E12: Silent Enemy. The crew is besieged by a mysterious and dangerous enemy, but more importantly they try to figure out Malcom's favorite food for some reason.

(Hey everyone we're BACK from our little hiatus (sorry) with a BONUS EPISODE and our NEW (cheap) Patreon! Head over to Temporalculturewar.com to hear the rest of this one –– we'll be doing a little bonus about once a month, just to defray the costs of hosting etc! )

Clayton and Mattie have a nice time talking about 1996's Star Trek: First Contact, the sort of spiritual grandfather of the horrible show that we are subjecting ourselves to on the main feed. In keeping with the spirit of Temporal Culture War, we also discuss 1996, the spiritual grandfather of the horrible year of 2001 in a lot of ways.

We delve into some beautiful Dreamcast commercials where planes crash into buildings, Also the Enterprise gang meets the most important man they'll ever met, and the TEMPORAL COLD WAR begins.

Mattie and Clayton talk about Thanksgiving 2001 and the beautiful floats (and people) therein. They also dive into Enterprise S1E10, "Fortunate Son" and hang out with some space truckers who love to kidnap a screwed-up looking guy.

Mattie and Clayton dive into more of November 2001 and also Enterprise S1e9: "Civilization," yet another slog where they only try to figure out how to fix the damn show. I hope someone with access to time-travel technology is listening and can take our notes to Brannon Braga.

We talk about S1E8: "Breaking the Ice" and also the deep evil of SHALLOW HAL.

We are joined by Enterprise Aficionado (and also author and cocktail expert) John deBary to talk about the first (?) pretty good episode of Star Trek: Enterprise featuring our friend and yours, Shran. That's right folks, it's Season 1, Episode 7: "The Andorian Incident."

The long-teased first appearance of Shran! It's Shran. Shran! Shran! Shran!

In 2001 America, everyone goes insane with patriotism. Meanwhile, aboard the Enterprise NX-01, they're on a dumb planet where everyone is a moron and nothing makes sense and they're eating turtles.
