Ever had one of those slumber parties where there wasn't any pizza or soda, just board games and a wormhole and a crashed shuttle and a gas giant and a combustible atmosphere and oversized space centipedes and, oh yeah, a large intelligent lizard that looks a lot like a large intelligent lizard that tried to disembowel you that one time?  No?  Well, maybe you're like Mission Log Live's callers, and you had thoughts on the latest episode of Strange New Worlds instead.
