#242 – ‘Life, Itself’ Discovery S5E10

Captain Burnham finds herself having to make an important decision. Join your life-giving hosts as they discuss stunning visuals, swift but satisfying character conclusions, and many other aspects of the thrilling, bittersweet series finale to Star Trek: Discovery.

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

Next week: We shift gears back to some classic trek with Star Trek: The Next Generation’s “The Royale” – join us if you dare!

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.

BONUS – ‘Whistlespeak’ Prediction Minisode

Due to inconveniently-timed international travel we were unable to record our discussion of ‘Whistlespeak’ so instead we got together ahead of time to offer our predictions (comical and otherwise) about what we think will happen in the episode. You will have seen it already, so listen along and score us on how accurate we were! Also, we are posting one of our Patreon exclusives to the feed as some additional bonus content to tide you over till our next episode.

Speaking of next episodes, next week we will get back to our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Discovery’s fifth and final season with our discussions of both ‘Whistlespeak’ and ‘Erigah’, along with reflections from the Paramount+ ‘Whistlespeak’ event held in Washington, DC.

#238 – ‘Mirrors’ Discovery S5E05

Burnham and Book reflect on what’s eating up Moll and L’ak. Join your dimensionally-confused hosts as they discuss Commander Rayner’s progress integrating with his new crew, the perils of exposition-filled flashbacks, and a wormhole that looks suspiciously like a winking butthole.

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

Next week: Due to international travel getting in the way of timely recording we’ll be presenting a bonus minisode in which we predict what we think will happen in the next episode, ‘Whistlespeak’, and will also be releasing one of our Patreon exclusives in full. We will then cover both ‘Whistlespeak’ and episode 7 (titled ‘Erigah’) in the following episode of IGST, scheduled for release on Monday, May 13.
