## Resource

The Borg. Retroactively foreshadowed in the first season finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation, fully realized one season later, The Borg is easily identified as the biggest nemesis associated with the franchise, and is considered among the top three non-Human alien races along with the Romulans and the Klingons. In this episode of Twin Cities Trekkies, the penultimate - and thirteenth - part of the podcast's celebration of Star Trek: Voyager 's thirtieth anniversary, Wes welcomes Holly of the Five-ish Fangirls Podcast to talk about this cybernetic race of beings, who makes the most appearances in Star Trek: Voyager .
