  • Resumen

  • Get ready for an exciting new season of Because That’s What Heroes Do. In this season, they take a deep dive into their favorite 15 episodes of Deep Space 9. In this exploration, they are joined by DS9 maven Alex Murphy (Murphy) from Montreal, who is a local historian and cinema and TV fan with a love for weird foreign films, all things horror, and obscure media. He has been watching Trek since he was a tiny punk, and it’s been a lifelong love. Today we take a deep dive into the first episode selected by Tom, Little Green Men. In this podcast episode, the panel revisits the DS9 episode Little Green Men, which involves the Ferengi crash-landing in Roswell during the 1940s. They explore themes of comedy, racism, cultural pride, and individual accountability. The episode’s origins as a fan pitch and its poignant commentary on the follies of racism and nuclear arms are discussed, along with its nostalgic nods to 1950s science fiction and anti-smoking sentiments. The panelists enjoy the character development and comedic elements but note some inconsistencies while appreciating the cultural insights into Ferengi life.
