The Rules of Acquisition: A Star Trek Deep Space Nine Podcast
Summary: A Podcast about Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. IT'S GOLD PRESSED LATINUM FOR YOUR EARS. Every Monday Wade, James, and Hugh dissect another episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, a 90s precursor to tv's current golden age. What works? What doesn't work? How does this compare to modern television? Just what are our opinions on the morality of various resistance movements? The Rules of Acquisition attempts to approach DS9 from a less than Trekker perspective -though from time to time an "Angry Nerd Corner" segment will slip in. Have opinions? Give us a call and you may even appear on the show! 917 408 3898

Garak is introduced. Lets revisit the second episode and cringe at what doesn't work and think about what does. Future-James reflects some on DS9 and what kind of stories we might want for future generations.
Don't trust linear time! It's all just one eternal moment to the prophets, and here we are back at the beginning. Welcome to the Rules of Acquisition remix. It's the same ROA that you may know, but this time we're giving you some additional commentary on how it feels to travel back in time and listen to versions of ourselves from those before-times, back when our innocence was still intact [and maybe yours!]. In this episode Hugh will fill you in on how this works.
A change in format! Hugh talked to listeners about the sexiest of Scottish Ghost Candle Stories, Star Trek: The Next Generations "Sub Rosa" Want in on next month's roundtable discussion? Go to https://patreon.com/kickersofelves for more info!

We’ve gone through every. single. episode. of Deep Space Nine. Now what? We go into details and reflect on the thesis of the podcast and where we ended up with that. Plus: Wade did a White(ish) Album, and tried to pull a “How would we fix it,” all the way from the begining of the pod to fix the ending.
The Last DS9! Buckle up for an extended voyage and prepare to say goodbye to your space friends. Does the finale hit all its marks? Half? Enough to be effective and make you a little emotional at least?
The end is nigh upon us! The Ferengi are getting a new Nagus! The Cardassian rebellion has been crushed! Or has it? The Alliance Fleet has to make a decision. Only one episode left before we finish Every Single Episode of Deep Space Nine.
Miles and Jule’s excellent adventure. It was the best of Julian, it was the worst of Julian. Sloan gets caught! Via exxxtreme measures. Oh, and Odo is dying.
Odo is sick. The Klingons and the Alliance have a problem. Empires of all sorts must change or be destroyed. Have you tacked before? Tacking into themes.
Dot dot dot. A lot is poured into this episode. Kira joins the faculty at terrorism school, Julian digs up some Section 31 dirt, and more! Did this episode take interesting concepts and make them tedious? We’re divided!
The Dominion War and Books. Ezri and Worf get home. Earth is attacked. Solbor! Nooo! Oh and something happens to the Defiant. The one with all the research.
Part Three of the final arc! Ezri/Worf: Still captured. Dukat/Winn: Trouble brewing. Sisko/Kasidy: Marriage is war? Damar's story is getting good. The episodes run together. Kai Ratched becomes a satanist.
Sisko's space mom doesn't want him getting married. Kai Winn gets a gentleman caller. Ezri gets a love interest she's barely talked to in any of her featured episodes. See, all the plots have romance. Yay?
