164: Royalties...Again

The Road to Voyager.   The 24th century begins with The Next Generation and continues through Voyager. As an audience, we see particular themes, characters and species introduced in The Next Generation and continued in the other Star Trek series.  In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Richard Marquez and Amy Nelson discuss how Voyager continues the Borg and Q stories, how the Maquis and Cardassian conflict started and paralleled the conflict on Dorvan V, and if there were any missed crossover opportunities.    Chapters Introduction  (00:00:00) Letters And Community (00:00:39) The Road to Voyager (00:04:15) Descent, Part II (00:05:53) Journey's End (00:15:57) Preemptive Strike (00:24:22) The First Duty (00:33:31) The Price (00:36:50) Q (00:37:50) Lt Barclay (00:41:22) Lower Decks (00:44:06) Final Thoughts (00:46:16) Closing (00:54:12)   Hosts Richard Marquez and Amy Nelson   Production Lee Hutchison(Editor) Richard Marquez (Producer) Amy Nelson (Producer) C Bryan Jones (Executive Producer) Matthew Rushing (Executive Producer) Ken Tripp (Executive Producer) Norman C.
