The Devil in the Dark
A terrifying cave monster attacks a bunch of miners in pastel jumpsuits and burns them alive: it must be killed to ensure a continuing supply of raw materials for the engines of capitalism. But then, of course, we reach out, learn that the monster is a person, and thereby discover a terrifying truth about ourselves. A triumph: literally the thing that Star Trek is for.

Grounded
While we wait for the final season of Lower Decks to drop, we head back into the show’s distant past to see how it reintroduces itself to the world at the start of its third season.

Disaster
In this week’s outstanding instalment of Competent People Solving Space Problems, the Enterprise is hit by an unexpected and dangerous premise which separates the crew into five distinct subplots and forces each of them to confront their greatest fears. Deanna contends with yet another fibriform space anomaly, Geordi faces the horrors of a Gilbert and Sullivan patter song, Worf takes on the...

Delightful gents
The stentorian rumble of Nathan on a tear and Joe's alarmingly elfin Britishisms fill every piece of my Star Trek soul! Not only do they cover a random Trek episode, they follow along with the episode live to tape, goofing and gushing and lambasting the rare missteps of out favorite shows.
