We're back on the bridge for TrekNoPod as we break down Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1 Episode 17 — “Fusion.” This one is… a lot. We talk T'Pol's spotlight episode, the show's early canon take on mind melds, why the episode feels so uncomfortable, and what it suggests about Vulcan culture at this point in the timeline.We also hit the fun stuff: show-and-tell at Linda's “holiday setup,” ThinkGeek nostalgia, Star Trek collectibles, and the moment we all realize Enterprise is doing something very different with mind melds compared to later Trek.If you've ever wondered why Enterprise is so debated (or why “Fusion” sticks with people), this episode is for you.Watch next: Rogue Planet (coming up next week) + more Enterprise Season 1 breakdowns.

Hello, irony! 08:56 – We discuss Warner Media's new deal with JJ Abram's regarding the BAD ROBOT project. In the cutthroat world of the streaming wars, this might just give WB the boost it needs. 11:38 – James Cameron proves his metal as a visionary filmmaker when he answers a question about AVENGERS: ENDGAME in a Deadline interview. 14:12 – Mandy talks about the trailer for DOCTOR SLEEP, how it seems to diverge from the book and the homage it pays to THE SHINING. 15:29 – Brian checked out the trailer for SEE, an upcoming show on Apple TV+. We have a better idea of the story now and we grapple with the many ways this premise can be a mindbender. 17:24 – We also caught the trailer for JOJO RABBIT. It's a movie that we're rooting to be funny and sensitive in the right way, and in the hands of Taika, we have a lot of hope. 20:33 – Yet another trailer we loved – THE LIGHTHOUSE – from the creators of THE WITCH. There are many similarities in the setting and Brian is eager to watch it. 22:24 – Apple shocks many by announcing its streaming service, Apple TV+ for $4.99/month. Mandy explains her theory on the low pricing. Brian talks about the unexpected benefits of an Apple TV box he bought recently. 26:18 – Brian is finally onboard the CARNIVAL ROW and DARK CRYSTALS ride. 28:06 – Brian also watched IT: CHAPTER II.

There was a lot of news that came out of E3, but I really screwed up trying to get Ultimate and now have three years worth of Xbox Live Gold codes I can't use. Beat Saber got a DLC pack full of Imagine Dragons songs. Konami announced the TurboGrafx-16! Final Fantasy VIII is finally being remastered! Banjo-Kazooie is in Smash! Animal Crossing was delayed to 2020, and Nintendo's new President Doug Bowser says it was to preserve work-life balance for the development team. Shenmue 3 was announced to be an Epic Games Store exclusive for one year, and they aren't refunding Kickstarter backers who wanted a Steam version. The Star Control lawsuit between Stardock and the original creators is now over, and all parties seem happy. Gamestop is shutting down ThinkGeek and will roll their products into the Gamestop stores. Amazon quietly laid off many people in it's Amazon Game Studios division, having them seek other opportunities within Amazon or take a severance package. Then we take calls about Beat Saber licensing, Elite: Dangerous in VR, and if E3 is dead or not.

However, can you truly call yourself a geek these days if the things that are now wildly popular and mainstream were the same things that put old school geeks on the receiving end of many a wedgie decades ago?
