Nepenthe Jun 10, 2021

Show notes

This week, Dan and Bill return to take their first-ever look at an episode from Star Trek: Picard--and what better episode to do that with than the fan-favorite, "Nepenthe!"

The seventh episode of Picard's first season, Jean-Luc Picard and Soji seek shelter from Will Riker and Deanna Troi, while Hugh assists Elnor on the Artifact and Agnes Jurati looks for a way out. There's a lot that happens in this one and even more emotion.

We'll look at all the developments that happen in Nepenthe and why we think this episode is so amazing.

When You Wish Upon a Trek May 20, 2021

Show notes

This week, Bill & Dan spend a lot of time wishing and hoping! They've come up with their ultimate wish lists of actors they'd love to see in Star Trek someday as well as some characters they might play. We think some of the picks might surprise you! Of course, there are rules:

6-10 actors, none of whom can be Lance Reddick
Actors must be living at time of recording
Can't ever have been in Star Trek in any capacity (no guest stars, no extras)
Someone you'd want to see as a series regular, either in a current series or a theoretical, made-up future series or reboot.
Be specific as to the role you'd like to see them play and why.

Who is on YOUR ultimate wish list? Let us know!

Show notes

Voyager's Captain and First Officer have contracted a virus from an insect bite on an alien world and they've been marooned on the surface to live out the rest of their lives...but what will this do to their relationship and what will it mean for the future?
