Episode 281: Lower Decks Cupid’s Errant Arrow

This week David and Aaron are here to discuss “Cupid’s Errant Arrow” the fifth episode of Lower Decks. Again this title threw David off as he was expecting something a bit different given the episode’s title. We also discuss how this episode has some strengths over Discovery and Picard, as well as the casting news that has been going around social media this week. It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Whiskey, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 280: Lower Decks Moist Vessel

This week David and Aaron are here to discuss “Moist Vessel” the fourth episode of Lower Decks. David was very disappointed “Moist Vessel” didn’t quite turn out how he expected it to be given the title. However the episode does help us dive into a deep discussion about what happens on the holodeck and what becomes of all the waste left in holodeck. So far no legacy characters have appeared in the show. Dave is hoping for Q, what legacy characters do you think will show up in season one of Lower Decks? It’s time to pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Whiskey, for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 279: Lower Decks Temporal Edict

August 21, 2020 DaviddAarono

Episode 279: Lower Decks Temporal Edict

This week David and Aaron are on their own to discuss Temporal Edict the third episode of the outstanding new animated Star Trek show Lower Decks. The episode title is a bit of a misnomer as we were expecting a time travel episode. However Temporal Edict dealt with Scotty’s invention of buffer time and the micromanaging of a Star Fleet crew and the repercussions it can have on people’s morale and their productivity. Lower Decks for the most part is a very strong trek show and we still consider the best Star Trek show CBS All Access has produced. We can’t wait to see what the rest of the season has in store. Pour yourself a cold glass of Romulan Whiskey, it’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 278: Lower Decks Envoys with Rocky Mountain Geek Tank

Aaron and David are joined this week by the Rocky Mountain Geek Tank to talk about Star Trek in general and Lower Decks specifically. Rocky Mountain Geek Tank is made up of Guy Davis who’s been a guest many times, Troy Fluhr who appeared way back on our Rouge One Podcast, and Chelsea Kramer who makes her inaugural debut. This week’s show is a little bit different as we appeared on their live Facebook stream where they wanted to keep the first hour spoiler free and more general star trek before we moved into the second Episodes of Lower Decks Envoys.

Episode 264: Kobayashi Maru Extinction with Jason Yungbluth

This week we need to apologize to our special guest Jason Yungbluth. Because was are talking about one of our least favorite episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise – “Extinction”. BUT there is more! We balance off this bitter episode with the sweet discussion of Jason Yungbluth’s newset comic book “Kobayashi Maru”! A comic book series set in a universe that parodies the Star Trek universe. Yungbluth is well known for his work comic book writer & artist on “Weapon Brown” (a dystopic Charlie Brown story) and “Deep Fried” (a untouchable comedy comic strip). Poor Jason has to talk about this shitty episode, but at least it is good for a few laughs. Enjoy together responsibly!

Episode 261: Picard Post Mortem with Lloyd Evans

April 19, 2020 DaviddAarono

Lloyd Evans returns as our guest! This week David, Aaron and Llyod do our post mortem of Star Trek: Picard Season 1. The return of Sir Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard has been greatly anticipated. Did this season do justice to one of Star Trek’s most beloved character? We have mixed feelings on the outcome. There were high points that we enjoyed. But there are plot points that left us scratching our heads. Or in David’s case, shaking his fists in anger. Either way this season was noteworthy. And if you are a Star Trek fan it is a must watch. Pour yourself a tasty beverage, pop in your earbuds and lets reflect on Star Trek: Picard. Enjoy together responsibly!

Lloyd Evans is an ex-Jehovah’s Witness writer and activist. He is the founder of JWsurvey.org – an online resource aimed at assisting those who wish to leave the Witness faith. Lloyd Evans host the popular YouTube channel “John Cedars”. His recently has written a book “The Reluctant Apostate” about his experience leaving the faith.
