Liz and Anika talk about Kes, a character we loved more than Voyager's writers did.

• Kes did not even get an entry in her own right in the Voyager character bible
• We swore we weren't going to use Kes's episode to talk about Neelix, but seriously: why is Neelix?
• In fact, why are all Kes's stories about men? 
• Anika's home for wayward narratives
• How Soji is Kes 2.0
• Everyone is wrong about Elogium except Liz (okay, and Anika)
• We had to cut a long discussion about how great Tuvok is because THIS IS NOT AN EPISODE ABOUT THE MEN IN KES'S LIFE
• Any situation which can be compared with the end of Breaking Dawn is probably bad
• Fury hits REALLY differently now we know more about Lien's departure
• COSTUMING, including our '90s aesthetics and a terrible quote from costumer Robert Blackman

Episodes to watch: 

• Elogium (an episode about Neelix deciding if he's ready for Kes to have a baby)
• Cold Fire (an episode about a guy recruiting Kes for his cult)
• Warlord (a man possesses Kes's body)
• Darkling (the Doctor is very concerned about Kes falling in love)
• Before and After (it's actually about Kes! Just don't think too much about Ocampa and human co-existence…)
• The Gift (an episode about Seven of Nine where Kes decides it's time to leave Voyager)
• Fury (but don't feel like you actually have to watch it to listen to this episode, Liz certainly didn't bother)
