Voyager Romance. From the on-screen romance of B'Elanna Torres and Tom Paris to romantic moments between various members of Voyager's senior staff, to various alien romances of the week, Star Trek: Voyager is perhaps the most romantic series in the entire Star Trektelevision franchise. In this special Valentine's Day episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Zachary Fruhling explore the many romances, both good and bad, in Star Trek: Voyager.

Message in a Bottle. Comedy in Star Trek can be hit or miss. The comedy duo of the Emergency Medical Hologram, Mark I (Robert Picardo) and the Emergency Medical Hologram, Mark II (Andy Dick), however, should go down in history as one of the great comedic duos of all time. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Zachary Fruhling and Suzanne Williamson discuss the fourth-season Voyager episode "Message in a Bottle," also known as "Frasier and Niles in Space."

"Mortal Coil" Commentary. It's Prixmas time once again at Trek.fm! While a (mostly) dead Neelix may not be the most festive of holiday podcast topics, "Mortal Coil" is where we first learn of the Talaxian holiday Prixin. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Zachary Fruhling raise their glasses (or can, in the case of Suzanne) for a holiday salutation to ancestors and friends alike with an audio commentary on the fourth-season Voyager episode "Mortal Coil."

Tom Paris Mini-Marathon. Of all the characters on Star Trek: Voyager, arguably Tom Paris had the biggest turnaround, from his character's beginning in a Federation penal colony in "Caretaker" to seeing the birth of his daughter in "Endgame." In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Zachary Fruhling and Suzanne Williamson compare their episodes picks for a three-episode Tom Paris mini-marathon. Chapters Hosts Production |

Faces. Like many of us (except for Suzanne!), B'Elanna Torres struggles with an inner dual nature. In B'Elanna's case, the struggle consists of finding the balance between her Klingon side and her human side. When B'Elanna's two halves are split into two distinct people, one fully Klingon and the other fully human, this inner struggle is acted out dramatically on screen between the two B'Elannas. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Zachary Fruhling discuss the many faces of "Faces," from B'Elanna's dual nature and Chakotay's inner Vidiian to Sulan's inner Hannibal Lecter.

Things We Love and Hate about Neelix. Like many fans of Star Trek: Voyager, we have a love/hate relationship with the character of Neelix. His use as comic relief in the early seasons of Voyager is simultaneously both brilliant and groan-worthy, and it helped to establish the overall tone of Voyager as a fairly lighthearted installment of the overall Star Trek franchise. But while Neelix developed into a character with remarkable depth and subtlety, he is also not without his character flaws and faults. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Zachary Fruhling and Suzanne Williamson discuss the things they love and hate about the character of Neelix. Chapters Hosts Production |

Innocence. Tuvok may be known for his Vulcan stoicism, but his Vulcan parenting skills are second to none. When Tuvok's shuttle crashes on one of the moons of Drayan Two, he's forced to care for three children who, unbeknownst to him, are actually elderly Drayans aging in reverse. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Suzanne Williamson and Zachary Fruhling discuss the second-season Voyager episode "Innocence," in which we see a kinder, gentler Tuvok keeping the monsters away and singing the children to sleep with a Vulcan lullaby. Suzanne and Zachary also discuss reverse-aging as a metaphor for senility in old age and the fear of death, along with Chakotay's diplomacy learning curve. Chapters Hosts Production |

Characters We Wanted More Of. Star Trek: Voyager had no shortage of one-off characters that made a lasting impression on us, so much so that we wish that they had joined the Voyager crew, or at least that they would have become recurring characters. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts Zachary Fruhling and Suzanne Williamson discuss one-off characters they wanted to see more of on Star Trek: Voyager. Chapters Hosts Production |
