Star Trek Discovery Podcast, featuring Picard, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds

We analyze S2E14 of DS9: Whispers. Miles returns to the station after a short away mission and finds everyone acting funny.

Ruthie and Brian talk through S3E7 of Star Trek: Discovery, titled Unification III. The USS Discovery arrives on Vulcan, but it's now called Ni'Var, and the Vulcans share the planet with Romulans, who have unified just as Spock had wished for centuries ago. They hold data for The Burn, but getting it from them turns into a process that may begin to tear them apart.

We analyze S2E13 of DS9: Armageddon Game. Julian and Miles help two warring alien races destroy bio-mechanical weapons. Miles gets a little dangerous goo on his arm.

Ruthie and Brian talk through S3E6 of Star Trek: Discovery, titled Scavengers. Burnham and Georgiou go on an unsanctioned mission to rescue Book and get a Black Box. Burnham and Saru deal with the reprecussions of that decision. We talk A LOT about that.

We analyze S2E12 of DS9: The Alternate. Odo's "Dad" drops by to say hi and maybe abuse yet another life form.

Ruthie is back, as she and Brian talk through S3E5 of Star Trek: Discovery, titled Die Trying. Sorry for the lateness of this episode but it's a good one!

We analyze S2E11 of DS9: Rivals. Everyone's luck starts to fluctuate as a new visitor opens a casino on the Promenade.

Ruthie couldn't join us again this week, so Brian and guest host LT from The Walking Dead Talk Through talk through S3E4 of Star Trek: Discovery, titled Forget Me Not. We enjoyed this expositional Trill episode combined with an old-fashioned dysfunctional Thanksgiving dinner. All in all, this was a very enjoyable episode.

We analyze S2E10 of DS9: Sanctuary. Millions of refugees descend on DS9 in search of a new home. What will Bajor do?

Ruthie couldn't join us this week, so Brian had guests LT from The Walking Dead Talk Through and long-time listener James the Augmented Sailor join him to talk through S3E3 of Star Trek: Discovery, titled People of Earth. We enjoyed this expositional episode, but not as much as the first two. Earth has gone through a lot of changes since 2258, but it's strangely more like modern-day Earth than the one we see in the 23rd Century.
