Podcasts about vulcan hello

In this episode, we are finally diving into Star Trek Discovery. We have not covered Star Trek Discovery on the podcast until now, however as part of our 'Spotlight Series', it was time to discuss the 6th show in the franchise. We welcome back a special guest to the podcast: artist Jenny Johnson! You've undoubtedly seen her work all over the internet and know how incredible it truly is. She brings her perspective to this, somewhat, controversial show as we discuss the best, and worst, of Star Trek Discovery's first episode "The Vulcan Hello"!

Scott and Jason review the Paramount+ original movie “Star Trek: Section 31” and then, just for fun, rank all the Star Trek movies from worst to best! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

And we're back! Back to "Trek", back to the (soft rebooted) Prime Universe, but not quite back to normal! It's a new era of TV across the board and between that and introducing a whole new show we somehow ran very long discussing only a single episode of "Discovery," part one of its pilot: "The Vulcan Hello"! Meet Michael Burnham and a whole bunch of other folks you probably don't need to remember as "Trek" tries to launch itself into the streaming era! Also blogtivities are back as we talk preceding premieres!! Also this week: marble Klingons, this is TV now, and Pilots! [timestamps: The Vulcan Hello: 03:47; Pilots: 1:20:21] [da blog is back!: https://www.tumblr.com/sshbpodcast/766430934414311424/engage-the-autopilot-pilot-episodes-in-star-trek?source=share]

This week on our show, Captain Ingle and I set a course for the very first episode of Star Trek: Discovery! In what eventually proved to be a most divisive season of Trek, this series certainly began with a bang with the episode we are reviewing today: "The Vulcan Hello". When First Officer Michael Burnham of the Federation starship USS Shenzhou encounters a Klingon beacon in deep space, things quickly turn south and loyalties become divided! Join us as we go boldly!

"The Vulcan Hello" in review. The first episode of Star Trek: Discovery introduces us to some of the characters (but not all), and is a mixed bag at best. So, how does Wes view it? In this first Retro Review episode of Twin Cities Trekkies, Wes reviews of the very first episode of Star Trek: Discovery and gives his perspective on it, seven years since it first aired. Review: "The Vulcan Hello" Airdate: September 24, 2017 Written By: Alex Kurtzman and Bryan Fuller Directed By: David Semel Any comments can be left by on the comment section on the Spotify version of the episode, or by going to our Facebook page at facebook.com/tctrekkiespod, or Instagram at instagram.com/twincitiestrekkiespod.

Welcome to the premiere of The TV Doctor, Season 5!This time around, we're doing things a little differently. Think of Season 5 as a clinical trial. M. Foss has returned, but she's not alone. For Season 5, the TV Doctor will be joined by a very special "intern" for a very special mission: to boldly go where few have gone before and some have had little-to-no previous interest in going. One of us is an Admiral-level doctor specializing in all things Star Trek; the other is a cadet who has all the right stuff but is learning about Trek from scratch. Together, we're going to work our way through Star Trek: Discovery, in honor of its series finale.Welcome aboard, buckle up, and let's fly.Content warning: Between 9:25 and 10:35, there is a brief discussion of mental health/illness and suicide.  

This is it! We’re reviewing a new “Star Trek: Discovery” episode for the last time. From binary stars to binary black holes, we’ve been here through it all. This time we’re doing our usual nonsense, expressing feelings first, then discussing the specially shot series-end segment, then backing into the main core of the episode. Mind-bending corridors! Lengthy bridge discussions! Fancy dress wedding! Book’s new living room! We cover it all. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

The season-long plot nears its conclusion—but this is “Discovery,” so there’s still time for a heart-to-heart while wearing Breen helmets. Jason and Scott have an oil bath to get to, but before they do, they break down the penultimate episode! Saru’s back! Vulcan flower holders! And the most dramatic scene of a man sitting in a chair that we’ve seen in years. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Into the space library we go! Burnham faces a mental labyrinth while on the outside, the Breen are busy doing Breen stuff—being annoying, mostly. We discuss Moll’s commitment to her husband, delight in library wardrobes, and more—but only after Jason makes strange, brief digression to discuss “Magnum, p.i.” and how it’s not connected to “Star Trek.” Except where it is. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Taking it from the Top Pt 8: DSC The Vulcan Hello/Battle at the Binary Stars Kelvin, Amy, Christos and Mark are back from the AGT hiatus and discuss the series premiere of Discovery, The Vulcan Hello.  We explore this birth of NuTrek, how serialised storytelling was received and the infamous reactions to the newly designed Klingons.

Discovery rolls on toward its end, with an episode that should involve a lot of plot pivoting, but ends up being an old-fashioned talky diplomatic dilemma crossed with scientific puzzle solving. Also, so many Breen! And Rayner learns that when you’re in trouble, you have to take the walk of shame instead of beaming home. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

What’s more Star Trek than violating the Prime Directive? This week’s “Discovery” episode feels familiar in a very good way. Jason defends Captain Burnham in imaginary Prime Directive court, but Judge Scott is not hearing it. Also, we spend a surprising amount of time wondering about how replicated food works. We blame Culber’s abuela. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

We come in peace, that's why we're here. Isn't that the whole idea of Starfleet?   1207.3 (2256) Welcome to Romulans Bearing Gifts Twenty One.Three featuring Carl, Cat, Tom and Eric. Join us as we take a look at the brand NEW Star Trek series, Star Trek Discovery, season 1, episodes 1 & 2. Let the Banter Begin!

At long last, this episode of “Star Trek: Discovery” answers the question fans have been asking about for decades: What’s under that Breen helmet? Wait, was that not your question? How about some backstory for this season’s antagonists? No? You wanted to know more juicy details about the Mirror Universe? Well, we don’t know what to tell you. Look in the mirror. We did. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Time may change me, but I can’t trace time! We ping-pong through the personal history of the USS Discovery as Michael tries to teach herself how far she’s come, Rayner learns to let the Burn go and live a little, and Stamets gets to construct a box to crush a Time Bug. Also, a Short Trek is surprisingly relevant! We break it all down. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

This week Burnham and Book take another hike to find a clue; Tilly explains to Rayner that he’s not on his old “Star Trek” show anymore; Saru tumbles into a Ni’Varian episode of “Veep”; and Gray and Adira go their separate ways, worlds apart. It’s all about connections, you see. And this episode connects Scott and Jason to each other, and both of them to you. See, we’re going with the Disco flow. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Live Star Trek is back in season! “Star Trek Discovery” has returned with a two-episode premiere, and we’re here to break it down. Once again, we profess our love for Jerks Who Are Right. We discover what form a Vulcan Proposal takes. Our new villains look like they’re space Bonnie and Clyde, but maybe they’re just misunderstood. And we enter Conspiracy Corner in order to ponder secret clues for what might be coming next—but not before a moment’s silence for Fred. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Paul, Clyde, and Myrriah are returning to the beginning.

With season 2 of “Strange New Worlds” in the rear-view mirror, Jason recorded a season overview on the Mothership. But so many people watched and enjoyed the season that we have brought back the Vulcan Hello season wrap-up panel, too! Moisés Chiullán with Cicero Holmes, David J. Loehr, Heather Berberet and Houman Sadri.

We wrap up season two of “Strange New Worlds” with a discussion of canon breaking and why it’s okay, how we liked the season as a whole, and why the most Star Trek solution to a problem involving enemy alien monsters may be to try to understand them better. To be continued… eventually! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

We’re so excited about this episode of “Strange New Worlds” that we’ve gotta sing! But we’re not going to dance very much. And Scott doesn’t sing. What we can do, though, is talk about Star Trek! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

This week, Mike and Mike are talking about Michelle Yeoh's prominent recurring role in STAR TREK: DISCOVERY - and more specifically, her role in the first two episodes of the show, "The Vulcan Hello" and "Battle at the Binary Stars."

War! Finally, we get (some of) the story about M’Benga and Chapel’s time during the Klingon war. There’s a “Deep Space Nine” level of darkness in this episode, but did it succeed at what it was trying to do? Or was it just a cup of cold replicated Raktajino? Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Jason and Scott return, and sooner than expected, to cover the surprise release of the “Strange New Worlds”-“Lower Decks” crossover episode. It’s full of jokes, and references, and—what’s this?—unexpected emotional heft and character nuance! Plus more jokes! Grab an Orion cocktail and pull up a chair, there’s an ancient game of Dom-jot to be played! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Scott is joined by his wife Marisa to discuss an episode in which creepy things are happening on the Enterprise… but only to Uhura. Scott McNulty with Marisa McClellan.

We’re sorry, your podcast was damaged in transit and has been repaired in accordance with our warranty policy. Your regular hosts Scott and Jason were scanned and returned to you in their original condition. All extraneous instructions have been discarded. There is no need to reply to this message. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

We can’t really remember what happened on this episode, but it made us FEEL GOOD. And feeling is the important part. Also, how long has this episode been going on? Hand me a helmet! I fly the ship! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Captain Kirk is back—sort of—in this week’s La’an-focused “Strange New Worlds,” which takes viewers on a time-travel ride reminiscent of some of Star Trek’s best movies and episodes. Does it deliver top-notch Trek vibes? We think so. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

In episode 301 of Trek Geeks, Dan and Bill dive into the first episode of Star Trek: Discovery, "The Vulcan Hello."  The episode begins with Commander Michael Burnham and the crew of the USS Shenzhou investigating a mysterious object in space. When they discover it is a Klingon vessel, tensions rise as the Klingons reveal they are there to protect their territory from the Federation. This leads to a deadly confrontation that sets the tone for the rest of the season. How did they feel about the return of Star Trek to television after twelve years? Find out this week! (Don't forget, when you listen to this one, don't spoil the surprise that's dropped for anyone else!  #IKnow!) It's the start of 5 consecutive episodes of The Flagship, get ready and strap in!

It’s time for a courtroom drama—and the career and life of Una hang in the balance! We discuss Star Trek courtroom dramas, how modern Trek undermines the utopian vision of Gene Roddenberry and makes something even better out of it, and then we enter a Spoiler Closet that’s not particularly spoilery but does involve us trying to make sense of Star Trek economics. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Scott and Jason are back for another season of “Strange New Worlds,” but what’s this? Captain Pike and Number One sidelined? Carol Kane inviting starship theft? A potent injection of punchy-punchy juice? This was an episode that defied our expectations, for sure. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

It’s all over! Scott and Jason break down the big finale, as we say farewell (again) to classic Star Trek characters. But it’s not a goodbye, of course, but a passing of the torch to… the next generation. How did the episode and season make us feel? How much do we care about the details of the plot? Who else might have been a changeling? We’ll see you back here in mid-June for “Strange New Worlds” season two. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Jack Crusher’s secret has been revealed! And while it’s not that much of a surprise, we think it works thematically and admire the broad, audacious plan that sets up the series’ final episode next week. Meanwhile, the nostalgia trip we thought we were taking turns out to be a much more thorough and detailed nostalgia trip than we could have ever expected. And while we’re all out of conspiracy theories, Scott saves some time at the end to ask Jason some surprising questions about what the final episode of “Star Trek: Picard” might bring. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

The final season of “Star Trek: Picard” creeps ever closer to its climax in this episode, which features Riker family grief struggles, Data giving away his Data memorabilia, Jack Crusher making an important decision, Shaw regressing into being a bit of a Bad Captain, and Vadic’s henchmen being of questionable value. Jason has some theories about how this plot will finally be resolved, but we all have to wait until next week to begin finding out! Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Action takes a bit of a pause this week, as Picard and company deploy their plan and Vadic reveals hers. We also react to the “Strange New Worlds” and “Starfleet Academy” news. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

We cover an episode that’s busy pivoting the plot of “Picard” season 3 but manages to also throw in fan service, plot twists, surprising character development, and the first appearance of one classic TNG character! But why is Lucille Ball’s body being stored in a Paramount warehouse? Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Scott and Jason are back—or are they diabolical duplicates?—to discuss an episode of “Picard” that featured surprising guest stars, the ratcheting up of the mystery of Jack Crusher, the continuing education of Captain Shaw, and Worf and Raffi’s encounter with a very logical Vulcan mob boss. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Jason’s back just in time for the USS Titan to spiral into the abyss. But on the way down, there will be lots of glorious character moments! We sing the praises of Todd Stashwick as Captain Shaw—he’s not wrong, he’s just a jerk—and break down the rest of this tense hour of holodecks, Space Babies, and recriminations. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Scott plunges deeper into the nebula with Moisés Chiullán. Fathers are everywhere, all things are not what they seem, and if Beverly Crusher offers you her hypospray, you darn well better take her up on it! Scott McNulty and Moisés Chiullán.

Text your spy handler and get yourself out of that med pod; Star Trek: Picard Season 3 episode 2 is here. Scott is joined by Joe Rosensteel to talk about their feelings about Picard in general and what works for them in this episode (a lot of it works!). What makes an ideal Starfleet captain? Who keeps a head handy for dramatic reveals? Find out! Scott McNulty and Joe Rosensteel.

“Star Trek: Picard” is back and so are Jason and Scott with our review of the final-season premiere, “The Next Generation.” (Hmmmmm.) We discuss themes (musical and otherwise), try to understand why hitching a ride on a Starfleet ship counts as “no Starfleet,” and praise the art of being a truly bad “Star Trek” admiral or captain. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

They gave her back to us, Scotty! Jason and Scott prime the pump for next week’s “Star Trek: Picard” premiere by discussing the completed animated seasons of “Lower Decks” and “Prodigy.” Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.
