120 | He Never Really Left Us
Episode 121
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026
Long ago, a wise(?) Ferengi once bid us adieu by saying, "The more things change, the more they stay the same." Nearly 27 years ago — or almost 820 in-universe — we said goodbye to the crew of Deep Space Nine and the Emissary of the Prophets, Captain Benjamin Sisko. At long last, we finally get something resembling closure to his story. Join DEBRIEF Bridge Crew members Cicero Holmes and Chris Clow, with a returning ZAKI HASAN and special guest ALI NAGIB, as we break down the fifth episode of STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY season one, "Series Acclimation Mil." Not only do we get an incredible performance from actress Kerrice Brooks as we learn more about her photonic cadet character SAM, but we also get a shockingly emotional episode for anyone who has a place in their heart for STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE. Listen in as we break down this emotionally charged reacquaintance with characters we haven't seen on screen since 1999, as well as a return of the contemplative, quiet power of the legacy of Benjamin Sisko getting its proper due in wider STAR TREK canon.
