1773. A fifty-nine-year-old friar with a leg that hasn't closed in twenty-four years crosses an ocean and a country to tell the Viceroy of New Spain that soldiers are assaulting Native women and nobody is stopping them. He wins. The governor is removed. #CatholicHistory #CaliforniaMissions St. Junípero Serra: Always Forward, Never Back - Holy Troublemakers: starquest.fm/HTM007

Treebeard says trolls were made in mockery of Ents, as orcs were of elves. In Tolkien, evil only ever twists what was already good. #Tolkien #LordOfTheRings Monsters of Middle Earth - Secrets of Middle-earth: starquest.fm/SME120

Worf was raised by humans and still became the most Klingon of Klingons. Maybe that's why: he learned the ideals without the corruption. #StarTrek #Worf #Klingons Heart of Glory (TNG) - Secrets of Star Trek: starquest.fm/SST436

Bronze Age Greece, 21st-century American accents. For Fr. Bryan Shackett, it only stung with two actors who had just been in a Spider-Man movie. Does modern dialogue break an ancient epic for you? #TheOdyssey #Movies The Secrets of the Odyssey - Secrets of Movies: starquest.fm/SCR205

Filming Stargate: Continuum in the Arctic meant forty below, plywood huts with kerosene heaters, and the cast taking turns washing dishes. Continuum - Secrets of Stargate: youtu.be/q8AniYk9ysQ

J.A.R.V.I.S., F.R.I.D.A.Y., E.D.I.T.H., DUM-E and U. all have jobs inside Vision's mind, and J.A.R.V.I.S. runs security. Which of Stark's AIs is your favorite? #VisionQuest #MCU VisionQuest, S1E1 & E2 - Secrets of Television: starquest.fm/STV031

Should anyone be able to watch an execution live online? The plan to stream the Fort Hood shooter's firing squad drew objections from Australia to the US bishops.

The tilcayo's neighbors in Bolivia's Yungas cloud forest include the spectacled bear, the pacarana and the Andean cock-of-the-rock. Not a bad place to hide a new species. #CloudForest #Bolivia #Wildlife Meet the Tilcayo - Let's Science!: starquest.fm/SCI109

The hard part, not softened. A mission was not a parish, it was a total institution. Baptized Native people lived there, worked there, and were not free to leave. In 1775 Serra asked that four who fled Carmel be whipped over a month. His own handwriting, quoted in full. #CaliforniaMissions St. Junípero Serra: Always Forward, Never Back - Holy Troublemakers: starquest.fm/HTM007

Once Star Trek said Data never uses contractions, every slip by the actor became a goof. Was the rule worth it? Heart of Glory (TNG) - Secrets of Star Trek: youtu.be/O-rKtIbrLVw

Tolkien picked "warg" because it was an old word for wolf that also meant outlaw. He said it "had a good sound for the meaning." So are wargs just big wolves? #Tolkien #TheHobbit Monsters of Middle Earth - Secrets of Middle-earth: starquest.fm/SME120

A Klingon ship arrives and says hand over your guests. Picard agrees. No warrant, no evidence, no questions. Is that how extradition should work in the 24th century? #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #Picard Heart of Glory (TNG) - Secrets of Star Trek: starquest.fm/SST436

WandaVision asked about the Ship of Theseus. VisionQuest asks about Theseus himself, the hero who went after the Minotaur to save the children. Ultron's advice to Vision: be him. #VisionQuest #Marvel VisionQuest, S1E1 & E2 - Secrets of Television: starquest.fm/STV031

The Arctic scenes in Stargate: Continuum happened because a fan running an ice camp kept asking the producers at conventions if they wanted to film up there. Continuum - Secrets of Stargate: youtu.be/q8AniYk9ysQ

One freighter, 1939. Ba'al kills its crew, the Stargate never reaches America, and SG-1 never exists. Stargate: Continuum is the team's last mission, and it starts by erasing them. #Stargate #StargateSG1 With @victorlams and @lisahenleyjones. Continuum - Secrets of Stargate: starquest.fm/SSG283
