#39 – ‘Temporal Edict’ Lower Decks S1E03

Ransom and Mariner debate command protocol while Boimler gets some much needed face-time with Captain Freeman. Join your micromanaged hosts as they discuss the legacy of Captain Montgomery Scott, the precarious chasm between professional latitude and fear-inspired productivity, and the importance of being well-read for the development of a just society.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: The ensigns get up to some sort of shenanigans that involve a “Moist Vessel” – the fourth episode of Lower Decks’ first season.

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.

#38 – ‘Envoys’ Lower Decks S1E02

Boimler gains some practical experience while Rutherford explores his options. Join your jamaharon-deficient hosts as they discuss the world-building benefits of animation, the unfortunate prevalence of misplaced rage among a small segment of Star Trek fans, and the happy fact that professionalism need not preclude tomfoolery.

Spoiler warning! In our excitement to discuss the episode we dove right into spoiler territory, so if you have not been able to see the episode yet you might want to avoid the noid.*

Next week: Expectations of time-travel-based shenanigans are high in ‘Temporal Edict’ – the third episode of Lower Deck’s first season.

* The “noid” in this case represents the podcast episode – but you got that, you are clever folks, by and large.

#37 – ‘Second Contact’ Lower Decks Pilot

We are introduced to four junior officers on the U.S.S. Cerritos. Join your Trek-thirsty hosts as they slurp their way through a new ship, a new crew, and a whole new style of storytelling in ‘Second Contact’ – the pilot episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks.

Special Note: In deference to our international listeners who do not yet have above-board access to Lower Decks, we will avoid overt spoilers on our social media feeds and will begin each episode of the podcast with our spoiler-free reactions before digging into the fleshy meat of the story.

Next week: We join the ensigns as they presumably encounter some shenanigans in ‘Envoys’ – the second episode of Lower Decks’ first season.

#36 – The Most (and Least) Funny Attempts at Humor in Star Trek

Join your jocular hosts as they discuss audience nominations for the most and least funny attempts at humor in the Star Trek franchise. Beware some mild spoilers for the Original Series, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise, Short Treks, and Picard! Thanks to everyone who sent in their thoughts, except for the one racist fellow (pro-tip: if you have to state “I’m not racist” then you may be a racist).

Next week: We embark on a ten week stint covering Star Trek: Lower Decks!

#35 – ‘One of Our Planets Is Missing’ & ‘The Lorelei Signal’ TAS S1E03 & 04

Spock chats with a cloud and Uhura saves the day. Join your cartoonish hosts as they revel in the camp and creativity of the first animated Trek series, discuss the pluses and minuses of the animated format, and analyze the struggle between feminist and patriarchal messaging in old school Trek.

Next week: In preparation for our coverage of Lower Decks, we will be discussing the use of humor (successful and otherwise) in the Star Trek franchise. Contribute to our discussion by sending in your favorite and least favorite moments where Trek tried to be funny!

#34 – ‘Phantasms’ TNG S7E06

Data saves the day by stabbing Troi. Join your dreamy hosts as they debate the merits of Freudian psychoanalysis, discuss Patrick Stewart’s deft direction, and try to guess the flavor of cellular peptide cake (with mint frosting).

Next week: Kirk and crew encounter scary clouds and even scarier women in ‘One of Our Planets Is Missing’ and ‘The Lorelei Signal’ – the third and fourth episodes of Star Trek: The The Animated Series’ first season.
