Robert Picardo and The Planetary Society, new Google Pixel Buds can translate 40 languages, and Star Trek: Discovery makes a science blunder. Bridge Crew VR heads to IMAX VR Centers, and we review Episode 7 of DSC "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad".

In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, "Thine Own Self," Data's mission to retrieve radioactive material from a pre-industrial world goes haywire when he forgets who he is. He doesn't forget science though, which means he might be able to clean up the mess he accidentally created. Meanwhile, Deanna Troi learns the one tough lesson keeping her from the Captain's chair. Hint: not everybody makes it.

William Shatner heads to Ticonderoga, Kyle Hill explains deflector shields, and the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine cast gets back together. New ships in Star Trek Online, Dr Robert Hurt explains NASA's gravitational wave findings, and we tackle Discovery's F-bomb in "Choose Your Pain".

In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, "Sub Rosa," Beverly's recently deceased, 100-year-old grandmother had a 34-year-old boyfriend. It is cool though. He was actually 800-years-old. It is not cool though. He was a ghost. No wait! He was a candle! NO WAIT! He was an anaphasic being. Or was he Nana-phasic? So much to unpack when Dr. Crusher packs up and leaves the Enterprise.
