In this episode Shashank breaks down some important news items that are ongoing, and some that we missed while we were gone. The Australian bush fires, the passing of Rene Auberjonois and more are discussed before jumping into the main topic: STAR TREK PICARD!

Shashank struggles to get a review out for the pilot episode, Remembrance, in between excited fanboy cheering. The importance of a good PR campaign leading up to the show debut, comparisons to Blade Runner and Battlestar Galactica, the quiet power of Jeff Russo's score and more are on the table as PoliTreks engages in deep discussion with Picard.
