A surprisingly polarizing episode. Were they loving parodies of Shatner and Roddenberry or mean swipes? Also, Spock is getting more romance action than Kirk on this show.
When La'an gets assigned to trash the holodeck during a neutron star mission, Scotty sets her up with a terrible crime to investigate. But after she requests some help and Spock joins the illusion, their lack of weird energy helps her solve the case in time to save the Entrepreneur. Who's aggressively skating towards an award in this episode? Which character has ‘tism rizz? What needs to be more of a bit? It's the episode that always nails the Riker maneuver.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social
Mystery and murder on the holodeck! La'an steps into the shoes of her favorite fictional detective, Dixon Hill Amelia Moon, to solve the case and escape a malfunctioning holodeck. No surprises there. After all, this is Star Trek. Holodeck malfunctions are a familiar plot device. The solution might surprise you though. Beam your feedback to startrek@baldmove.com.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Series 2, Episode 9. First broadcast on Thursday 3 August 2023. Stardate: 2398.3. Strange New Worlds jumps genres this week to create something hitherto inconceivable in Star Trek: a high-stakes space problem that can only be solved with a massive, heartfelt musical finale.
On this episode of Trek Watch, we're diving into the highs and lows of the current Star Trek landscape. First, we tip our hats to Strange New Worlds for delivering a surprisingly fun and freaky zombie episode—proving once again that Trek can still get weird in the best ways.But it's not all warp core breezes: we're scratching our heads at that baffling Season 4 teaser, where Captain Pike is… a puppet? Yep, that happened. And we're not thrilled. Add to that a Starfleet Academy trailer that feels more CW teen drama than classic Trek, and we've got some honest frustrations to beam up. It's a mix of praise and protest this week as we talk tone, direction, and what the franchise needs to stay boldly on course.
To get Captain Batel out of her bed, Pike and M'Benga must fight the undead! It's a rough time for the crew! Zombies, revenge plots, Erica gets in trouble with Number One who has a number two on her head, mind melds or somethin... it's wild, maman.Episode Reviewed: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3x03 - "Shuttle to Kenfori" Hosts:David C.

“Shuttle to Kenfori” With Captain Batel facing the possibility of becoming an extra in the 1980s miniseries V, Doctor M'Benga and Spock hatch a plan (no pun intended) to save her by using a rare chimera blossom to combine the residual Gorn DNA in her body with her human DNA. The catch? That very special episode of Blossom only airs in one place, a planet once disputed by the Federation and Klingons. Captain Pike, wanting to play a role in saving his girlfriend, kicks Spock off the mission and assigns himself to accompany M'Benga. When they arrive on Kenfori, they find themselves in an episode of The Walking Dead. But escaping the zombies won't be as easy as they think, thanks to the arrival of Bytha, daughter of Klingon ambassador/mass murderer Dak'Rah, who is determined to exact vengeance on M'Benga. In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “Shuttle to Kenfori.” We discuss the continuation of M'Benga's story, future paths for Batel, designing TOS-inspired Klingons, insubordination, and a few creative ideas we maybe should keep to ourselves.

Love, laughter, and lightyears collide in this delightfully offbeat installment of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. In “Wedding Bell Blues,” the crew faces matters of the heart that are anything but routine—from awkward romantic entanglements to intergalactic wedding chaos.
Episode Description: “Hegemony, Part 2” – The Captains Quadrant PodcastStrap in, Trekkies—Strange New Worlds throws us into warp speed with the thrilling conclusion of “Hegemony.” Part 2 brings explosive revelations, moral dilemmas, and a showdown that will leave phasers set to “WOW.”
When Captain Batel's last chance is a rare blossom from inside the restricted zone, Captain Pike and Dr. M'Benga shuttle down to a spooky garden center. But after a Klingon hunting party finds them and they fight off the flora together, only a warrior's sacrifice can get the away team back to the ship. What's bound to get old to a ghost? Why do Klingons hate flowers? How is Dr. M'Benga like the Raisin Bran sun? It's the episode that won't stand for any beeping chair erasure.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social
Anthony and Laurie review episode 3 of Strange New Worlds‘ third season, “Shuttle to Kenfori.” They talk about the three different stories—a zombie planet expedition with Pike and M’Benga, insubordination from Ortegas, and growing Gorn issues for Batel—and how they intertwine thematically. They also dig into some nitpicks about hair, mind melds, and Klingon costumes, and discuss Pike’s character arc plus the joy of seeing Una in command. There was also some breaking news which Anthony quickly covers regarding the Skydance/Paramount merger getting final regulatory approval. Together with Laurie they will cover that in more detail in next week’s pod, along with all the news emerging from San Diego Comic-Con.

“Wedding Bell Blues” Nurse Chapel wraps up her three-month fellowship with Dr. Roger Korby by returning to the Enterprise to celebrate Federation Day with a big glass of … awkward! It's a spirit the ship's Vulcan bartender can work with, especially since he turns out to be none other than galactic trickster Trelane. But he's not just a drink slinger, he's also a wedding planner—and an Andorian. At least that's how he appears to Spock and the rest of the crew as they prepare for a celebration of his and Chapel's love for one another. Korby, channeling Guinan à la “Yesterday's Enterprise,” realizes that the timeline has changed. And while he manages to snap Spock out of the delusion, they can't get anyone else on board, at least not until the last moment when Daddy Q shows up to scold junior. In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “Wedding Bell Blues.” We discuss Chapel's character arc, contrast her and Spock's relationship with that of Pike and Batel, question the story's tone, and, of course, delve into the return of the lonely squire of Gothos.

“Wedding Bell Blues” Nurse Chapel wraps up her three-month fellowship with Dr. Roger Korby by returning to the Enterprise to celebrate Federation Day with a big glass of … awkward! It's a spirit the ship's Vulcan bartender can work with, especially since he turns out to be none other than galactic trickster Trelane. But he's not just a drink slinger, he's also a wedding planner—and an Andorian. At least that's how he appears to Spock and the rest of the crew as they prepare for a celebration of his and Chapel's love for one another. Korby, channeling Guinan à la “Yesterday's Enterprise,” realizes that the timeline has changed. And while he manages to snap Spock out of the delusion, they can't get anyone else on board, at least not until the last moment when Daddy Q shows up to scold junior. In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “Wedding Bell Blues.” We discuss Chapel's character arc, contrast her and Spock's relationship with that of Pike and Batel, question the story's tone, and, of course, delve into the return of the lonely squire of Gothos.

“Hegemony, Part II” With part of his crew abducted in cold blood and orders to stand down and stay on the Federation side of the demarcation line, Captain Pike must balance duty as a Starfleet officer with duty as a leader responsible for the lives under his command. As La'an, Ortegas, M'Benga, and Sam Kirk fight their way out of the serpents' den, Spock and Chapel prepare for some unorthodox surgery to save Captain Batel's life while Uhura and Una hatch a plan to rescue their kidnapped crewmates. After preparing for ramming speed, the Enterprise punches back at the big lizards in their backyard and uncovers a surprise in another battle at the binary stars. The ultimate solution? Put the lizards to sleep and kick the can down the road. Sound familiar? In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with the Season 3 premiere, “Hegemony, Part II.” We discuss the challenge of continuing a story after a two-year break, the character progressions, the potential end of the Gorn threat, and the familiar nature of the resolution.

After that and some feedback its on to this weeks film... A film that gives you a quieter take on the end of the world without the need for leather chaps or rage monkeys.

When Spock plans a grand romantic gesture for Nurse Chapel's return, he's surprised to learn their break led to sharing quarters with Dr. Corby. But after a leprechaun bartender spikes Spock's drink, Corby is sent to the proverbial cuck chair. How do you choose the tracklist for the most fucked-up mix tape? What kind of lists are Ben and Adam on? Which is better: snaps or jazz hands? It's the episode that asks the stripper to sign an NDA.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social
As we bypass strange new worlds for familiar old ground, the Star Trek universe continues to get smaller, maman. What used to feel like endless possibility now feels like a ho-hum countdown to the next bit of heavy-handed fan service. But whatever, maman. It wasn't as bad as Section 31. Not by a stretch.Episode Reviewed: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3x02 - "Wedding Bell Blues" Hosts:David C.

Anson Mount (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Hell on Wheels) joins us this week for a grounded and honest conversation about fatherhood, patience, and finding perspective. Anson talks a lot about Strange New Worlds… getting into the responsibility he feels playing Captain Pike and the surprising fan backlash against casting in the series. We also talk about advice for new dads, embracing the moment instead of chasing the outcome, and whether or not he'd want his kids to go into acting. Thank you to our sponsors:
