Episode 187: Catspaw

Happy Halloween from Synthaholics and the Star Trek episode Catspaw! But before we get into the episode we have some Star Trek news. This week it was announced that there was going to be a new Star Trek animated sitcom called Lower Decks! We all give our thoughts and opinions on this new show before we break down Catspaw.

Catspaw was designed to be a Halloween episode of Star Trek so we thought it was a prefect time do discuss this episode. Beware all who enter and listen to this podcast, lots of silliness ensues cat and bird noises abound! This episode we also talk about how Halloween was for each of us growing up, turns out the three of us all had some pretty strict upbringings when it comes to Halloween. Break out your Halloween treats it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 180: The Tholian Web

Episode 180: The Tholian Web

Episode 180: The Tholian Web

Aaron, Holly, and David are all together this week to talk about the TOS episode The Tholian Web. But before we get into the episode discussion Aaron has some news about how Star Trek Discovery basically plagiarized the indie video game Tardigrade. The Tholian Web has the unfortunate circumstances of being part of the third season of Star Trek. While neither a great episode or a terrible episode this episode has in a way had greatness thrust upon it. As The Tholian Web directly connects to the Enterprise Mirror Darkly two parter and the Star Trek Discovery mirror universe episodes. Love it or hate it The Tholian Web is a very important episode for Star Trek canon. Grab your liquefied Klingon nerve gas it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Synthaholics Episode 127: The Ballad of Harry Mudd

 Episode 127: The Ballad of Harry Mudd

Synthaholics Episode 127: The Ballad of Harry Mudd

This week we discuss the Ballad of Harry Mudd. Harcourt Fenton Mudd appeared three times in Star Trek’s past and will be appearing in the upcoming Star Trek Discovery. So in preparation we are talking about the Star Trek The Original Series episodes Mudd’s Women and I, Mudd as well as the Star Trek Animated Series episode Mudd’s Passion.

Before we get started we talk about the unfortunate news of LeVar Burton being sued over a catch phrase. After the news we quickly give the synopsis for each of the three episodes then get deep into our Mudd discussion. Harry is a really fun character even if his episodes weren’t the greatest.

We are excited to see how Rainn Wilson’s take on Mudd will be in Discovery and we are very much hoping his personality will be intact. It’s that time of the week again break out the liquors and make your favorite drinks because it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 108: Natalie Schlichtmann has taste for Armageddon

This week we welcome cosplayer Natalie Schlichtmann on the show to talk about one of her favorite Star Trek episodes A Taste for Armageddon. We open the show introducing our guest and how we met, this segues into talking about the new Star Trek Discovery casting announcement of the classic character of Harry Mudd. Then lastly before getting to the main topic two kickstarters were brought to our attention to talk about on the show. The links are below if you want to check those out! We were thrilled Natalie picked this episode it is a really great episode and one that has been a while since we have seen. The implications of this episode are intriguing and frightening and very applicable to how we wage war today and we wonder how long it will take before everything is automated. You should  raid that liquor cabinet because it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

A Doomsday Christmas

Episode 94: A Doomsday Christmas

The Doomsday Machine because a Doomsday Christmas as we wind down the year with a classic episode of Star Trek The Original Series. Aaron and David first go over the news of the casting of the lead actress for Star Trek Discovery. The show takes a dark turn talking about the doomsday machine and we get into the topic of atomic weapons and how devastating they are. Kirk prompts this discussion because in the episodes he talks about how the H-Bomb was the 20th century doomsday Machine. We want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy whatever you celebrate along with a Happy New Year because this is the last Synthaholics of 2016. We will see you guys next year! But don’t go anywhere yet it’s time to finish off your Egg-nog or whatever other Holiday Booze you have laying around because it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 82: Jeff and the Devil in the Dark

Episode 82: Jeff and the Devil in the Dark

This week Jeff Hulit from The Tricorder Transmissions Podcast (http://www.thetricordertransmissions.com/) joins us to talk his favorite Star Trek Episode Devil in the Dark. I think the Horta kidnaped Aaron, Fayth, and Guy this week as it is just David and Jeff this week. Before we get into the episode we talk the news of Star Trek Discovery being pushed back from January to May. We then have a great time getting into the episode and Jeff admits something here that he’s never admitted on a podcast before. David drops some Synthaholics news right in the middle of the episode during one of the many wonderful rabbit holes that are dove into throughout the course of this discussion. We hope you have a beverage that can support silicon life to use as a bargaining chip for your life! Because it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!
