Episode 289: Star Trek Discovery People of Earth

Aaron and David are here to discuss “People of Earth”, the third episode of Star Trek Discovery Season 3. After hugs and tears the reunited crew of the USS Discovery and book head to earth. Things are a lot different than they expected them to me. Earth provides for itself and doesn't seem to know what's going on beyond its atmosphere. This has us scratching our heads as to why this would be. On the bright side we meet a young human named Adira who has a trill symbiont inside of her. Adira seems pretty interesting and we are looking forward to what happens with the Trill.Will Adira keep it? WIll she be able to unlock all the memories of the symbiont? Hopefully we will find out next week. It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Ale, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Book Club Episode 22: Dune Part 22

Aaron and David discuss the next two chapters of Dune. Paul’s been hitting the spice really hard having visions of the future to prepare for his first solo mounting of the sand worm. Alia Paul’s sister is wise beyond her years after encountering the waters of life while still in the womb. We discuss how interesting the spice is and how it almost makes the fremem a collective of sorts being aware of each other but not directly telepathic. We also discuss Jessica’s outlook on Chani. Pour yourself a cold beverage and listen to more Dune, enjoy together responsibly!

Episode 288: Far From Home with Joe DePinto

 

Aaron and David welcome past guest and friend of the show Joe DePinto to discuss “Far From Home”, the second episode of Star Trek Discovery Season 3. But first we have news that Star Trek Discovery is renewed for a fourth season, and creation is no longer doing the official Star Trek convention anymore. The upcoming Las Vegas Trek conventions have to be unofficial. “That Hope is You” featured michels time coming out of the worm hole this week we get to see what happens with Discovery as it comes out of the worm hole. Overall we really enjoyed this episode. What is going on with Keyla Detmer? Is she the latest crewmember to be infected by control? Or does she just have a concussion? Is control really dead? Am I asking too many questions? It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Ale, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Aaron and David discuss the next two chapters of Dune. This time we are hanging out with the lovely Harkonnens of Giedi Prime. The Baron is very upset to learn his boytoy of the day has an imperfection, a poisoned dart put there by his nephew Feyd-Rautha. The Baron confronts Feyd and tells him to think bigger as the barron is trying to set up Feyd to become emperor. Meanwhile Thufir Hawat plots to take down the Harkonnens while doing mentat mathing work for them. It was nice to get off Arrakis for a bit to learn more about the enemy.

Episode 287: Star Trek Discovery "That Hope Is You, Part 1"

Aaron and David are back this week to discuss “That Hope is You, Part 1” the first episode of season 3 of Star Trek Discovery. This episode will contain spoilers. The episode is mostly carried by Sonequa Martin-Green who shows a huge range in her acting ability. While the story is mostly a fun chase sequence. We start off giving some non spoiler thoughts of the first episode before we get into deep spoilers. The 930 year jump Discovery has made the future opens up so many possibilities for where the season could go. It will be very interesting to see where it could go and we do some speculation on where the larger story could go and when we think we will see the rest of the crew. What do you think where this future story is heading? Could the temporal cold war still be causing issues? Only time will tell. It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Ale, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Book Club Episode 20: Dune Part 20 

Aaron and David discuss the next two chapters of Dune. Paul finds himself inheriting Jamis’s wife and family. There is so much to Fremen culture Paul still has to learn. Harah throws herself at Paul but Pual only seems to have eyes for Chani. Meanwhile Jessica must undertake the ritual of spice agony to the dying Fremen Reverend Mother. Chani doesn't give Jessica much time to think about the ritual before she pours the Water of life down Jessica's throat. This probably doesn't get Chani and Jessica off to the best footing together and the waters of life are potentially dangerous to Jessica’s unborn daughter. Pour yourself a cold beverage and listen to more Dune, enjoy together responsibly!

Episode 286: Lower Decks No Small Parts 

Aaron and David are back this week to discuss the next episode of Lower Decks “No Small Parts”. But first we have news that Kate Mulgrew is going to reprise her role as Captain or Admiral Janeway in the Star Trek Prodigy series that will be coming to Nickelodeon. In “No Small Parts'' we get the Pakleds back something David was hoping for since the show first premiered. This time the Pakled have gone from passive aggressive dullard kidnappers to full on raging barbarians that offer up an actual threat to the crew of the USS Cerritos. Luckily Rider and Troi on the USS Titan show up at the last second to save our heroes. This was so great to finally get to see the Titan on screen and see more legacy characters in Lower Decks. It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Whiskey, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Book Club Episode 19: Dune Part 19 

Aaron and David discuss the next two chapters of Dune. But first we discuss the sad news that the latest Dune film adaptation has been pushed back until October of 2021. This week the Fremem held a funeral service for Jamis. While Paul says his words for Jamis he weeps and this helps win the Fremem over to him as Paul unwittingly is working his way to the prophesied one. At the end of the first chapter Paul beliefs his mother to be an enemy. This fuels some good conversation. The next chapter takes us away from Arrakis and to Giedi Prime the homeworld of the Harkonnens. It’s Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen's birthday and he gets to kill an Atreides slave in the arena. What an odd birthday party. Pour yourself a cold beverage and listen to more Dune, enjoy together responsibly!
