    AGT 205: The Evolution of a Species Pt 4: The Borg (Part 1)

    In this episode of All Good Things: A Star Trek Universe Podcast, host Christos is joined by Kelvin, Kristin, and Amy to begin a two-part deep dive into one of Star Trek’s most iconic and terrifying adversaries: the Borg.

    Part 1 explores the Borg’s evolution from their first chilling appearance in Star Trek: The Next Generation—where they function as an unknowable, unstoppable force of cosmic horror—to Star Trek: First Contact, where the introduction of the Borg Queen gives the Collective a face, a voice, and a more personal connection to Jean-Luc Picard’s trauma.

    The panel examines key episodes including “Q Who,” “The Best of Both Worlds,” “I, Borg,” and “Descent,” discussing how fear, loss of identity, and inevitability defined the Borg at their peak. They also debate whether First Contact strengthened the Borg by making them cinematic—or weakened them by making them knowable.

    This is Part 1 of 2 in our Evolution of a Species series on the Borg. Part 2 will continue the discussion with Voyager and Picard.

    Resistance, as always, is optional.
