It’s another one of those weeks, when fortune, or scheduling executives at Disney+ and Paramount+, favors us with new episodes of both a Star Trek and Star Wars series.  Star Trek Lower Decks, the animated series that only the most uptight Star Trek fans can’t find room in their hearts for, is back for a fourth season. This time around Mariner, Boimler and the other ensigns get a rank upgrade, and a new crew mate. Because any good Trek recipe can be improved by adding a little Vulcan.  At the other end of the galaxy, Star Wars Ahsoka seems to have finally hit its stride. Admittedly, a bit slow off the mark, episode five has given every Ahsoka fan (read as Tod) everything they’ve been hoping to see. It can only get better from here! There’s also the usual Random Topics and a round What’s in the Box!  Thanks for listening!
