This week on The Omega Particle, we tackle Deep Space Nine’s most aggressively fog-based episode: “The Storyteller.”

What happens when Miles O'Brien is forced to LARP his way into being a spiritual icon? Absolute confusion, a lot of yelling, and possibly a new career in motivational speaking.

Jon breaks it all down:

• The cloud monster with bad vibes and worse lighting,

• Bashir being clingier than a Ferengi credit collector,

• And a village that defeats evil by listening to bedtime stories with life-or-death stakes.

Meanwhile, Jake and Nog try their hands at government diplomacy… and accidentally teach a Bajoran teen how to negotiate peace using casino games. Classic.

There’s trivia, deep dives, bad fog puns, and a full analysis of why Miles O’Brien should never be put in charge of anything spiritual, ever.
