Set Condition One's Battlestar Galactica Series Recap
"What do ya hear, Starbuck?"
We're at action stations one last time, folks. We're looking back on Battlestar Galactica and the last year and a half we've spent together, falling in love for the first time and all over again with the humans and cylons (and everyone who lands somewhere in between) on Battlestar Galactica. We've been so, so lucky to have you all along for the ride. One more time across the universe, folks. At least for now.

Daybreak - Series Finale
We did it, Joe. It's the series finale of Battlestar Galactica. And what are the odds, it's ALSO the series finale of Set Condition One. It's been an absolutely wonderful and joyful ride with you, our SC1 fleet.
We'll be back one more time next week to wrap it all up, but otherwise, this is it, folks.

Deadlock
Well, the guests keep coming and they don't stop coming! Last week we had SC1's Gaius Baltar AKA Night Shift Radio's Director of Content and notorious Iron Clad Contract Monster, Michael Fight in the CIC, and this week, fan-favorite guestpert, Dr. Daniel T. Cohen ( . . . any questions!?) pops in to talk about Cylon goop! We've only got a few episodes left before we shuffle off this mortal coil, and things are really heating up on Galactica. Or cooling down? We're still not sure how the goop works.

We've got a very special episode of Set Condition One for you this, as NSR's resident Baltar, Michael Fight, joins us in the CIC. We watched the post-series finale Battlestar Galactica movie, The Plan. The movie follows the events of season 1 but from the cylon perspective.

No Exit
Saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary https://deadline.com/2021/11/dean-stockwell-dead-quantum-leap-star-1234870413/ (Dean Stockwell), the news of which we'd learned shortly before recording this episode. "No Exit" is a Cavill-heavy episode though, so we were happy to get a chance to celebrate his delightfully hateful turn as the most self-righteous of Cylon models. Rest in peace, Dean Stockwell. So Say We All.
Next week, we're bringing our Night Shift Radio boss, Michael Fight back to watch the feature-length Battlestar Galactica movie, The Plan. We'll talk about the first half here, and then we'll jump over to Fight and Caleb's https://nightshiftradio.com/thenhoit (Never Heard of It) podcast to talk about the second half. It'll be a hoot.

Oh, and Gaeta won't stop singing about his damn leg.

The Ties That Bind
This episode is chock full of plot!
The Cylon are on a mission to reunite the 12 models once and for all . . . at least that's what some of them think is happening.
Roslin might be overextending her reach as president; Lee might be getting too big for his britches; they're both frakking up.
Cally makes a disturbing discovery, and she was already pretty disturbed to begin with.
And Starbuck's still star trekkin' across the universe.
They really beefed it not calling this one "The Tighs That Bind" huh?

Six of One
When last we left the crew of Battlestar Galactica, Starbuck was on her way to shoot the president into turning the ship around because her belly told her Earth is the other way . . . Seems like a good strategy.
There's trouble in Cylon paradise. The Raiders have been behaving oddly, and some of our models seem to think this means the Final Five are among us.

Crossroads Pt. 2
We did it, Joe! The season 3 finale! Roslin gets some morning motivation to get outta bed in the form of Admiral Adama. Tori's got some morning motivation to stay IN bed in the form of Samuel T. Anders (the . . . pyramid player?), and Apollo's found his own motivation for playing the little lawyer who could in the form of Grandpadama's law books. And some of us are still hearing music in the frakkin' ship!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo Number Five—wait, scratch that—
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Crossroads Pt. 2!
Catch our Season 3 recap next week. After that, we'll be launching right into the final season of Battlestar Galactica and—could it be—the final season of Set Condition One?

The Son Also Rises
William Adama! DIJOOPUTYERNAMEINTHEGOBLETTAFIYA?!?! Okay, probably not, but one way or another, Adama has been chosen to serve as one of five judges overseeing the trial of the century: Gaius Baltar versus . . . all of humanity. And it seems like not everyone has the right to a fair trial here in Battlestar Land because someone or something is trying to help Baltar's cat-toting kleptomaniacal lawyer shuffle off this mortal coil before he can get a chance to represent our dear Gaius.
P.S. This is the last episode before we head into the two-part season 3 finale! How?

Dirty Hands
This week, we learn a lot about class stratification among the colonies and the related unrest stirring throughout the fleet, all of which is fomented by Baltar and his new book he's got hiding in his pants. And Tyrol, our good man of the people, has to make some tough calls.

Taking a Break From All Your Worries
With Cloud 9 gone, it was only a matter of time before we got a bar on the Galactica. Because you know how your wife is like . . . ugh? Marriage, no thanks. Women, amirite? This guy knows what I'm talkin' about!
We've found out something EXTREMELY important in this episode: Cheers exists in the BSG universe. Which means, even more importantly, so does Frasier.
There's also a truth serum and some wholly unethical torture going on in this one, but if the Cheers theme song exists, then Cheers exists, then Frasier exists. And that's all that matters.
Oh, hey, we got to talk to Chris Gethard on Left of the Dial about his new hilarious special Half My Life. You can—and should—watch the special pretty much anywhere, and you can listen to the episode over at http://leftofthedial.fm/listen (leftofthedial.fm/listen). Check it out.

Eye of Jupiter
There's trouble in Cylon paradise for our favorite thruple. Galactica has visitors (some more welcome than others).

The Passage
Someone poisoned the water hole, and the colonial fleet is giving new meaning to the word hangry. Roslin and co. have devised a really (reallyreally) risky plan to get folks fed, but it involves a whole lotta luck and radiation, and if you've been watching the same Battlestar Galactica that we have, then you know one of those is in short supply.
In Set Condition One news, President Andrea makes a SHOCKING confession about last week's edit. Will she ever earn back Kitzy's trust?!
Y'all. This is a silly episode, and if you're not here for friends having fun with friends, godspeed to ya.

Battlestar Galactica Season 2 Recap
Is it really possible that we've reached the halfway point of our Battlestar Galactica (re)watch?
We're taking a moment to catch our breath and look back on where this last season has taken us: the ups and downs, the highs and lows, the Tighs and . . . woes? Look, it's been a rollercoaster of a season. Who has time to write poetry when there's an election to steal, a pyramid player to rescue, and a fabled planet to find?
And hey, if you're reading this, that means you're already hanging out in your podcatcher of choice. Howsabout you do us a blessing and rate and review Set Condition One? We'll make you an honorary member of the colonial fleet AND if you let us know on Twitter, President Andrea will send you your very own handwritten tweet. They're gonna be all the rage.

Whoa! It's the season two finale of both Set Condition One AND Battlestar Galactica. What're the odds?
In this, the second half of "Lay Down Your Burdens," it appears the Cylons have, for the time being, decided to leave humanity to its own devices; Kara brings her new boyfriend home to meet Dad; we find out the results of the presidential election—the events of which might strike just a bit to close to home for anyone listening in 2021. And, we might just add another name to the list of confirmed Cylons.

We've reached part one of the season two finale of Battlestar Galactica!

Pegasus
CW: This episode of Battlestar Galactica deals with torture and sexual assault.
We learned that there are multiple cuts of the episode. For most viewers, we strongly recommend the 45min cut that is streaming on Peacock TV.
When a ship jumps into DRADIS range broadcasting Colonial transponder codes, our crew is understandably skeptical. But is it a dream, or did another Battlestar really survive the Cylon attack? That's cause for celebration, right?! Definitely nothing will go wrong when an ambitious young admiral with a history of cruel decision-making takes control of the fleet. Let's be honest here - we love you Michelle Forbes, but we already hate Admiral Cain.
Not for the first - or last - time, we marvel at Tricia Helfer's range as an actor, and EJO's imposing presence even when he's no longer in charge. This cast is brilliant!

Flight of the Phoenix
A Galactica Carol:
Spirit - Tonight you will be visited by 3 Cylon viruses. The first will... MESS WITH THE LIGHTS!
Gaeta - AH!
Spirit - The second will... SCREW WITH YOUR MONITOR!
Dualla - AHH!!
Adama - What about the third?
Spirit - The third will... uhhh... it will also MESS WITH THE LIGHTS!
All - AHHHH!!
The Galactica's systems have been infected with a Cylon logic bomb, and if Baltar & Gaeta can't get it under control, they may be forced into a desperate move. Meanwhile, Chief Tyrol is tired of patching old planes with spit & octagonal duct tape, and decides to build his own - but who will be crazy enough to fly it?

Final Cut
Journalist D'anna Biers has been given unlimited access to the Galactica and her crew in order to tell the real stories of the fleet's protectors. But does she have other motives? By asking that question, am I confirming that she does? Will she give the people of the fleet a fair story, or will she reveal Galactica's darkest secrets? Why is even their TV formatted as an unnecessary octagon?? That's a lot of questions - you should probably watch the episode & then listen to us answer them.

Home Pt. 2
In what we believe was a midseason finale (why is that even a thing??) we encounter yet another 2-part episode. So we of course recorded both back to back and absolutely nothing went wrong. Why would you even say that?
The real takeaway from this episode is that Dr. Cottle needs his own spinoff - like MASH, but in space.
We grapple with the real issues:
How to get out of a ravine
Who has the more badass name, Wolf Blitzer or Bear McCreary?
When did Gaius take up pretentious smoking?

The Science of Battlestar Galactica with Daniel Cohen
In this bonus episode, Andrea's in the CIC with her most trusted science advisor Daniel Cohen (there's no way in hell y'all thought that might be Gaius Baltar) to talk about space travel, special relativity, and why "FTL drives" may be a bit of a misnomer. And even though we're missing SC1 Actual Caleb and our XO, Kitzy, Dr. Cohen makes sure there's at least ONE Futurama reference in this episode.
In his own words, Daniel is "just what every Battlestar Galactica podcast needed: a white man with a graduate STEM degree and some opinions. A PhD protein chemist who sort of remembers undergrad physics and wanted to be on a podcast."
In reality, Daniel is a smart scientist who is good at teaching science stuff to non-science people with little goldfish brains, and we had a super fun time trying to figure out if the BSG fleet really is traveling faster than light.
If you can't get enough special relativity talk, here's a great explanation from Crash Course.

Resistance
Dad's back! Adama wakes up from his surgery to find that Tigh has frakked things up but good. And that means SC1 Actual is back in charge of the podcast, so all is right again.
Is Chief Tyrol really a Cylon? Is Baltar's Cylon Detector™ ready to move out of beta? Will Gaius learn to listen to his conscious, Jiminy Sixit? Can (former) President Roslin pull off a daring escape with the help of Captain Apollo: Space Pirate? You'll have to listen to find out!
Or watch the show. You could do that too.
Anyway, here's some stuff about Pyramid: http://www.battlestargalacticamuseum.com/pyramid/

Fragged
Tensions are high this week. Commander Adama's condition is critical. Crashdown still can't make the right calls. The president needs her medicine. Tigh can't understand why everyone isn't in the brig.
Meanwhile, the SC1 crew muses about Dutch angles, and what exactly Centurions talk about amonst themselves - we think it's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yN2H3--1aw (footy).

Valley of Darkness
Kitzy's still in charge this episode, so buckle up!
The Galactica has been boarded by a Cylon Raider-ing party, and they're not here for brunch. But the real questions is: is a Raider full of Centurions kinda like Trojan Horse full of horses? Do the crew have enough explosive rounds to kill these particularly tough Centurions? Can Jammer is repair a telephone in time??
Back on Caprica, Helo makes the rookie mistake of opening the fridge in Kara's apartment, while Kara finds a cigar that somehow isn't totally dried out. Also, we learn our girl Starbuck is totally a tortured artist with great taste in music (spoiler - it's Bear McCreary).

Scattered
We're kicking off season 2 with a little grand theft Raider, as Sharon absconds with Starbuck's meatship. Also, the XO is in charge, and that's going predictably well... But hey, it could be worse. It could be "that shifty son of a bitch" Baltar.
We compare the original Raider design with this new "Heavy Raider" that crashes into Galactice, and we come to the realization that Hotdog is actually EJO's son.

Kobol's Last Gleaming Pt. 2
We did it, y'all - end of Season 1. There's a raptor crew crashed on Kobol, Starbuck makes a shocking discovery on Caprica, and Cylon Base Stars are made of meat! It's like... the heart of Philly! Or is it rock'n'roll? Wait, isn't that New York?
Anyway - if you're ever in Saint Louis & aren't scared of heights or small spaces, do yourself a favor and visit the Gateway Arch. Caleb strongly recommends it.

Kobol's Last Gleaming Pt. 1
CONTENT WARNING: This episode deals with themes of self-harm that - while important to the plot - may be difficult to hear. We have taken note of the timestamp, so that you can skip this segment if needed: 13:30 to 20:30.
We are almost at the end of Season 1 (can you believe it!?) and there's a lot happening. we find the location of Kobol. Crashdown lives up to his name, Lee's a terrible boxer, and Kara's gone rogue to retrieve the Arrow of Apollo from Caprica. Which according to Andrea can't possibly be a literal arrow.
Caleb tells the story of the time he was in The Danger Zone™ while having an early morning beer at the airport.

Colonial Day
After weeks of running for their lives, the fleet takes time out for the truly important stuff - politics! I mean, come on! It's Colonial Day! We can't not celebrate the 52nd anniversary of the signing of the Articles of Colonization, even if the Cylons have nearly wiped out the species. Even our good buddy Gaius gets into the spirit of the day - and maybe gets a little more responsibility than he bargained for.
Also, Andrea swears that Kobol spelled backward is Earth, and that's the key to the whole mystery.

Hand of God
We're just riding one crisis wave to the next over here! Fuel reserves are running low. and if the fleet can't locate more soon then it's game over. But when the only viable supply around has already been staked out by the Cylons, it's up to Starbuck to come up with a plan crazy enough to take it from them.

Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down
Commander Adama's been acting a little odd lately, and President Roslin is concerned that Leoben's warning might have held some truth. Just when Colonel Tigh seems to be getting his life in order, a destructive influence returns. Can she be trusted? Can anyone be trusted? If anyone could be a Cylon, could everyone be a Cylon? What would a Bear McCreary arrangement of the McDonalds jingle sound like? We ask all the hard-hitting questions.

Flesh and Bone
Caleb's dog Penelope makes an appearance as we S1 Ep8 - Flesh and Bone. A Leoben copy is captured aboard the Gemenon Traveler, and Starbuck is tasked with interrogating him - but can she beat his mind games? We once again praise Andrea's impulse control for not getting ahead, discuss the similarities between BSG and Lost, and why Big Aglet is responsible for the lack of good velcro shoes.

The vision of Six in Gaius' head has had enough of his blasphemy, and decides to test his faith. At the same time, a mysterious woman appears on the Galactica, claiming to have evidence that Gaius aided the Cylon invasion. Can he prove that he's not a traitor (even though he really is), or will he manage to Baltar his way out of trouble again? Also, why do these shows insist on using image enhancement as a plot point?!

A familiar face (jacket?) returns to Galactica, and it's an... explosive reunion. A search for the truth starts to feel like a personal vendetta, and the secret is finally out - everyone now knows the Cylons looks like us now. Loyalties are tested, friendships questioned, and - predictably - Baltar thinks it's all about him.

Act of Contrition
A party on the flight deck ends in tragedy, and suddenly Galactica finds itself left with only 21 pilots (no, not the band - and yes, we did look it up). Starbuck is tasked with training a bunch of rookies, but can she get past her guilt over Zak Adama's death? Will the Ready Room turn into the Hotdog, Chuckles and Kat show, or can these nuggets get serious and pass basic flight? Will the people of Pittsburgh ever see stars?
