Episode 145: The Prime Directive Part 1

Synthaholics Episode 145: The Prime Directive Part 1

After talking about Ransom and Janeway both admitted to bending the prime directive last week. Aaron pitched the idea of talking about the prime directive. We thought this was a great idea but we decided it was too big to cover in one go so we will be doing multiple episodes about the prime directive.

This week we discuss the basics of what the prime directive is as well as some inconsistencies and exceptions to the rule. Specifically we get into General Order 24 and a little bit into the Omega Directive. We hope you are thirsty it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 138: Star Trek Discovery Lethe

Episode 138: Star Trek Discovery Lethe

Synthaholics Episode 138: Star Trek Discovery Lethe

Aaron and David are back to discuss Star Trek Discovery Episode 6 “Lethe”. This week was heavy on character building and it was a nice change of pace compared to the last several episodes. Lethe was such a fascinating ride where we learn more about Michael, Lorca, Ash, and Sarek. Lethe didn’t seem to do a whole lot of advancing the overall story this week but it was for sure setting up the chess board. We can’t wait to see what all this leads to in the upcoming episodes! So far the end of each episode this season always leaves us wanting more, this episode is no exception. With only have three more episodes before the show goes on break we wonder how they will keep upping the ante. We hope you enjoy your weekly shot of Star Trek.

Episode 126: Cause and Effect with Joe DePinto live from STLV

This week we talk Cause and Effect with Joe DePinto live from STLV. STLV is the Star Trek Las Vegas convention it is the largest Star Trek Con in the United States. Since Joe was still at the convention when we recorded this week he tells us what he has been up to at the con.

The stories from the con are great and one of Joe’s favorite episodes is the Star Trek The Next Generation episode Cause and Effect. This is a very fun episode that uses time travel in a new way for its time. If you think this is a copy of Groundhog Day this episode actually came out first!

Once we break down the episode we get into a discussion about our experiences with Déjà vu. The talk of Déjà vu makes David think of his fascination with the mandela effect. We go over a few examples of this effect and what the theory of how so many people can have false memories. Grab your favorite drink and your cards it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Synthaholics Episode 119: Michele Specht and The Offspring

Aaron, Guy, and David are joined this week by Michele Specht to talk The Offspring. Before we get into the main topic we talk a little bit about Star Trek Continues and how the last three episodes will be debuting at Florida Supercon, Salt Lake Comic Con, and New York Comic Con. The Offspring is a Star Trek The Next Generation season 3 episode. A year and three months ago the last time we had Michele on the show, she told us this was her favorite Star Trek episode. So we had to have her back on the show so we talk with her about The Offspring. You should grab a box of tissues to keep them by your drink you’ll probably need them for this week’s shot of Star Trek!

Synthaholics Episode 117: Star Trek Holograms Gone Wild

This week Aaron and David delve into the world of Star Trek Holograms Gone Wild this is something we teased way back in the earliest days of the podcast and we are now bringing it to you! For this first holograms gone wild we thought we’d talk about the two Star Trek The Next Generation Episodes that involve Professor James Moriarty “Elementary, Dear Data” and “Ship in a bottle”! These are two fascinating episodes of Star Trek and bring up interesting moral dilemmas such as; are holograms actual life forms, at what point does artificial intelligence become sentient, and are their any safeguards being considered to prevent this from happening? We hope this episode inspires you to watch these two episodes back to back it really is a fantastic way to see“Elementary, Dear Data” and “Ship in a bottle”. What are you having to drink with your weekly shot of Star Trek?
