Track us the Galaxy's Most Unpredictable Star Trick Podcast. Yep, hard cut cut.
0:28
I know I have nothing I can do with that. It sucks.
0:32
Well there there, there is actually um in that audio file. Literally have
0:40
it tapered down at the end, so when you play it for fifteen seconds,
0:44
the last five the audio is automatically just going down, so it goes
0:48
right into us. That's so much cleaner. Yeah. The problem with that
0:53
is if I were to do that, it's still gonna cut because the minute
0:57
I get off that image to us, it stops the audio. I understand
1:02
that. Yeah, we can agree it. We can unmut early and start
1:10
talking, start talking over the tail end of it and the visual the visual
1:15
will be a quick cut, but the audio, which is fun, will
1:18
blend. Okay, So but it's cool. We'll talk about this again in
1:23
two weeks. Yeah, sure we will. Exactly two weeks from sure we
1:26
will yeah all over again. Yeah. God, it's like it's like this
1:33
shows like Groundhog Day sometimes, are you guys? All right? So fun?
1:41
Fun groundhog Day? In fact, So where I live, we have
1:45
a we have a minor league baseball team, Hudson Valley Renegades, and I
1:49
don't know if it's still owned by by Bill Murray, but years ago he
1:55
was like a majority stakeholder in the in the team, and they had you
2:00
know, you go to the stadium, they have like themed nights, so
2:04
they had Groundhog Day and they did the same you know, it's not like
2:14
during the inning switches. They'll sometimes people come out on the field and do
2:16
a show or a dance or something. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
2:20
they like three inning changes in a row. They came out and did the
2:23
same dance. And it was one of these It was one of these jokes
2:27
that like nobody got the joke. All around us, Everybody's like, why
2:32
are they They just did this? They just did me included I was driving
2:37
the home and I was halfway home and I was like, oh, ground
2:38
on Day, they did the same thing over and over. Yeah, that's
2:42
hilarious. Sometimes you joke is just too obscure. And I posted recently in
2:47
the Facebook group a meme that says it's got Garrick on it, and it
2:52
says the repetitive meme is the highest form of Codassian literature. And so I'm
2:58
really thinking about one day I'm just gonna post that meme repeatedly on the Instagram
3:02
account for twenty four hours. Does every post it's just that meme, over
3:07
and over again, over and over again. Yeah. Anyway, yeah,
3:14
yes, well shorting jo, that's how it goes off the rails, off
3:16
the intro, off the show. Here we are. It's it's been it's
3:20
been two weeks. I know it's it's a slow start. No, no,
3:24
this is a normal start. What are you talking about. Yeah,
3:27
it always goes every Sunday, whether it's every two weeks, every one week.
3:30
We could do this every day and we'd have the same type of intro,
3:36
which is okay, that's part of what makes us us. Yeah,
3:40
I uh so. Yesterday and I took a road trip to Montana. I
3:45
don't know if you saw my Facebook. I did posted some images. Yeah.
3:50
Um, there's a thing in Montana called the Garden of a Thousand Buddhas.
3:54
Yeah, and it was like I was in a foreign country with Look,
3:59
I tell you what, man, Um, there's there's one near where
4:02
I grew up. Oh yes, and there's no signs pointing to it.
4:09
There's nothing directing you to it. It was it's close to a state park,
4:15
but it's not in the state park and my friends and I happened upon
4:18
it. Took a dirt we took a dirt road. Yeah, and we're
4:23
like, what the hell is this? Yeah, and there's this huge Buddhist
4:30
Buddhist monastery in the woods and they're very welcoming. Anybody can pull up and
4:34
yes, get out and walk around. And there's you know, little guys
4:38
in robes walking around. And I thought I was in like a kung Fu
4:42
movie or something. And this was ten miles from where I grew up.
4:47
Wow, had no idea, had no idea. The one I went to.
4:51
Like literally, there are farms all over like yeah, like probably they
4:57
got a nigger of land or so. And like from angle, I could
5:00
see a family just barbecuing. It's because it was Saturday afternoon. They were
5:02
just hanging out in their backyard just so wild kids are running around. Yeah.
5:09
It was a lot of fun though. Yeah. Cool. Well,
5:14
should we get to the news go for it? All right? All right?
5:21
So our first news story being that we're getting ready for a big primer
5:27
of Strange World season two, is from CBR and the cast is promising big
5:33
swings for a star trek Stranging World season two. So a lot of them
5:40
have been out there making the rounds, kind of doing little interviews, and
5:44
they're promising big things. Let's see. Rebecca Remains says they're very excited.
5:49
Anson Mount has also said that we have a couple episodes in the first season
5:55
that we weren't too sure about, but those episodes were the ones that pop
5:58
for us, and so I gave our shot runners more freedom to play in
6:01
season two. So they're going nuts. Man, They are excited as am
6:09
I. I'm so looking forward to it. I saw an ad on Paramount
6:14
last night. I was watching one of the last episodes of Fatal Attraction with
6:16
the wife and the ad came up in the middle of that show, and
6:23
I got all excited, and I came back to watch the er because we
6:26
couldn't fast forward the commercials on there. So I got back to watch that
6:29
one from the living room or from the kitchen anyway, and into the living
6:32
room, and my wife was like, what do you what do you?
6:33
What's going on? What's going on? She was on her phone. She
6:35
looks and she goes, oh, that starts in a couple of weeks.
6:40
Yes it does, Yes, it does. And she's like, so every
6:42
Sunday for you. Then I'm like, yes, yes, every Sunday.
6:46
That's hilarious. All right. Our next news story comes to us from fans
6:51
Sighted and one of the eighty five producers in Star Trextreene New World, even
6:57
Goldsman, is out there making the interviews, and he did say something kind
7:01
of interesting. They asked him if we'd see any other crossovers besides you know,
7:05
lower decks, and he says, well, at the beginning of this
7:09
of each season, we blue sky the hell out of it. Blue Sky
7:12
kind of means like Brainstorm, and we leave so many episodes on the table,
7:17
so many crossovers. I guess we'll just see what happens. There's potential
7:21
for an Enterprise crossover. He also said there's a chance of maybe bringing back
7:26
Trelane, because why not, that's that time period. So yeah, would
7:34
you guys want to see old characters like that, like Trelane? Or when
7:38
you say Enterprise crossover, do you mean Scott Bacula or do you mean they
7:42
just said Enterprise crossover on the Enterprise. Yeah, he means the show.
7:48
Yeah, Okay, I mean Porthos has to come back from somewhere, right,
7:54
Yeah, stuck in the buffer all this time. Well, that's in
7:57
a different timeline, so it doesn't matter. No, it's still that team
8:00
same timeline that No, no, no, no, he means the timeline
8:03
where Porthos was stuck in the Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
8:05
yeah, that's the Calvin time or lost lost in the Transporter. Yeah,
8:09
that's the Kelvin timeline. No, I know it is. It's in the
8:11
Calvin movies. But the timeline doesn't break until after Strange Worlds. Ohh so
8:20
yes, But what he's saying is the act of Porthos being stuck in the
8:26
sport. Yeah, we don't have a hard date on that. It was
8:28
only referenced in the in the Calvin movie correct, correct, which would have
8:33
still been when I mean, m well, it could be now, but
8:39
could be later. Who knows when exactly. We don't really know. Yeah,
8:43
well we kind of do because we did hear Scottie in Strange New Worlds,
8:52
so we know in this time. No, that was another alternate timeline.
8:56
Damn it, Star Trek. I'm gonna ask audience those in the Strange
9:00
in the World's timeline, didn't we didn't we hear Scotty though, It's like
9:03
we did. No, it was no, it was. It was last
9:13
it says Scottish accent. Yeah, but it's Scotty. We know it's we
9:16
know it's Scotty. But it was in that episode where Monster Maroon Pike comes
9:22
back in time. Oh yeah, and Pike lives lives out that that alternate
9:28
timeline. That's why I said, damn it, san acolutely. Yes,
9:33
surely ye. Here was definitely a general disbasement in fact, so therefore that's
9:43
a great question though. And our last news story comes us from Digital Spy,
9:48
and so I wanted to look up because it's kind of a slow news
9:50
week, so I was like, hey, what's up with the Orville?
9:52
Still no updates, but the one big update is Chad Coleman is going out
10:00
and saying, hey, fans, if you want the Orville to come back,
10:03
um, you know, do you a grassroot campaign? Help us out?
10:07
Who's uh? Who's Who's Chad? He's one of the mocklins. I
10:13
forget which one the one we don't like? No, I think it's the
10:16
one we likes. Bordis, I don't here. I'll show you his picture.
10:24
Screws matter unless you actually show me Bortis or Clydon. I think he's
10:30
Clyden. Yeah, I don't care. I mean bring back all the show,
10:35
so yeah, I know. Yeah, but uh yeah. So he's
10:39
saying we need a grassroots campaign, you know, we need a plane to
10:43
fly around that says we're neew it, which is what has happened in other
10:46
campaigns. So they're trying. I think we should just give them the Trek
10:52
gass bump, you know show. Hey, hey, we want it back.
10:58
There, it's done everyone. Yeah, you're welcome Orville season four coming
11:01
soon. Yeah, so I did check. There is a change dot org
11:05
petition to renew the Orville season four currently has just over twenty nine thousand signatures.
11:11
To give you perspective, the Star Trek Legacy petition has just over fifty
11:16
eight thousand, nearly fifty nine thousand. So yes, that's not looking good
11:26
on that fan on that fan desires. Oh look at that. And just
11:35
like the chances of the Orville, it is dropping over with Dan. I
11:39
swear the timing on those phone drops is like this fits every time. Yes,
11:45
I wish you could see the contraption. Okay, so you know how
11:48
my my connection will drop out around the thirty minute mark. Uh huh yeah,
11:54
I'm pretty sure that's from the iPad heating up. Yeah, okay,
11:58
yeah, so these are the ice packs that those are thermal conduits. Those
12:05
are those are thermal box of tissues that is holding them in places to walk
12:15
in on you just sitting there in your car for like an hour. I
12:22
don't know. Does you have a neighbor who listens to the show? He
12:26
does? He does? He may need to get him. Yes, he
12:33
needs to come up and take a photo of Yes, Live Live. If
12:39
you're listening on YouTube right now, get your phone, get out there,
12:43
go take a photo of him and post it for us. I don't think
12:46
he listens live. However, that does not mean two weeks from now he
12:54
won't be right outside, yeah right, snapping a photo. Yeah, we're
13:01
gonna have to get security guards hired for Dan to just pull people away from
13:07
him on a Sunday morning. Yes, and no, I mean you guys
13:09
realize that my studio can just drive away, right, No, it can't
13:16
because your entire contraption for recording would fall over. That's true, that's true.
13:20
So how did the accident happen? Well, my studio got in the
13:24
way of the steering wheel sea with podcasting while driving. Yeah, you don't
13:30
understand this is important stuff. Strange New Worlds comes out in two weeks.
13:33
That's right, that's right, as the old saying went in the early days
13:39
of college. Sorry, mister Zema, would you like another Ossifer? Well,
13:46
that's all the news stories I have, so okay, yeah, cool,
13:52
cool. Well, then let's get into the main topic, our big
13:56
predictions primer, let's talk about Strange World season two. Will now yeah because
14:07
it trails the audio off. So yeah, Stranger to the World season two
14:13
is right around the corner. Will be debuting June fifteenth. Looks like the
14:20
first episode will be called The Broken Circle. Allegedly, that's what according to
14:26
Wikipedia, but I've not seen any official announcement for show titles. We're pretty
14:31
sure this is accurate, though. Yeah. Yeah, we're gonna get ten
14:35
episodes. I wish we'd get more. Yeah, I wish go back to
14:41
the old you know, twenty six episodes or whatever. Time flu What are
14:48
you talking about, buddy, Yeah, we have been waiting. Yeah,
14:54
yeah, I've been waiting. Yeah, I've been waiting. So I rewatched
14:58
U over the last few weeks. Oh yeah, season one. Do you
15:03
watch him on Paramounter or YouTube. I watched them on Paramount. Okay,
15:09
yeah, well they all just the first episode the first season is on YouTube
15:15
right now, as is some of the reboot of I Carley. I don't
15:18
know what their plans are with all that, but that's what they're doing,
15:22
the rebooted I Carley. Yeah, okay, yeah, all right, I
15:28
will have to not check that out. Yeah. I haven't seen it either.
15:31
It's great. I mean, nothing can replace the original I Carley,
15:35
So why even bother? I don't even know what the hell I Carle is.
15:43
Chad Coleman is filming Superman for super Man Lois who does he play on
15:46
Superman? Lois? He plays Bruno Manheim. Oh it's amazing that you know
15:50
that off the top of your head, but you didn't know who he was
15:54
in the Orville. Yeah yeah, I like my comic books anyway, So
16:03
I rewatched season one. Yeah, and the only thing it did was get
16:12
me more excited for season two. Yeah. It reminded me what a great
16:18
show this is and really what a good time it is to be a trucky
16:25
right now. Yeah. Yeah, it was good stuff. It was just
16:32
as good the second time around, and you know, it was really strange
16:37
as I was watching it in in my workshop downstairs while it was you know,
16:42
working on a different hobby. So the Roku was just you know,
16:47
off in the background playing and it's just kind of I was watching it,
16:49
but I was also just kind of listening to it. And you know how
16:53
when the show ends, if you don't select something else, it'll just put
17:00
something else on that it thinks that you might like. Yeah. Yeah,
17:04
So the last episode of Strange New Worlds finished, and the last episode of
17:12
Card season three came on right after, and I didn't and I didn't even
17:18
touch the remote, and I just sat through it all over again, and
17:22
I was like, man, you know, I don't know what's going on.
17:30
I'm full of emotions. Some of them are confusing because I was mad.
17:37
I was mad that it's over and that's all we're getting. Yeah,
17:41
that's it, no more. Yeah, the D is back in moth balls,
17:48
and I just wanted more of that D. I know you did.
17:52
We can't go a single show without that anymore ever again, Sorry, everybody
18:00
loves the D, baby, everybody loves the D. That old D.
18:07
Yeah, it starts with the first episode of Discovery. Oh god, I
18:11
don't know why Mind does that too. It either does that or it goes
18:14
and does a random honestly, a random Voyager episode which I have yet to
18:19
ever watch Voyager on Paramount Plus, so I don't know why it does that.
18:23
Probably why, yeah, probably probably it knows you haven't watched it,
18:27
and so well, if you like all this other stuff, you might like
18:30
this. Yeah, but why a random episode out of a random season and
18:33
random order? Like why not season they got really bad? It's just it's
18:38
like, what was the one where she was um Janeway was on the planet,
18:44
she'd forgotten who she was. She was working some shift at some energy
18:48
factory thing, fall in love with her neighbor, you know. It was
18:52
called the Second Half. There was a two part or something. Yeah,
18:56
and it was a two parter and the second episode fucking started out of the
18:59
blue. Sorry, it's so weird. It's like that's just not even gives
19:07
it. Like the same producer is on both, so it goes, oh,
19:10
maybe like that person's work or director, Like it's by the end of
19:15
one episode someone said maybe. In at the beginning of the next episode of
19:18
the air, someone says maybe, and that's how they tied again. Yeah,
19:21
yes, who knows. It's so weird. It's just random as all
19:26
hell. I was inspired because Dan told us earlier um that he was restarting
19:32
Strange New Worlds, and I'm like, Okay, I'm gonna finally watch Prodigy.
19:36
I'm gonna see what's up with this. Seen one episode and that was
19:40
like a week and a half ago. I don't hate it, like,
19:45
I'm not like, oh this sucks. It's just so bland for me,
19:49
and I imagine it gets better. That's all it does. You get about
19:52
four or five episodes into that first season, it's okay, but it's still
19:56
not It's still not enough for me to go back and care. Even with
20:00
Chekote show especially, you know things like that, it's like a it doesn't
20:04
Yeah, it's possible to like what something is supposed to be without actually liking
20:12
it. Yeah, does this makes sense? Yeah, i'd girls. No,
20:18
I mean, I mean, um, I have fond memories. Jad's
20:22
laughing. That's the laugh of acknowledging he has been there. Oh man,
20:26
oh man. What I mean is this one time at bank camp Goad Goad
20:36
know me. No, I's just gonna say I have fond memories of the
20:41
Transformers and Optimist Prime and Megatron Autobots versus the Decepticons and all that. I
20:48
have a bunch of toys. Um. I've tried to sit through the old
20:52
cartoons that I loved when I was ten years old, nine years old,
20:56
and it's hard. Yeah, yeah, it's hard. Yeah, So that
21:03
loves how I feel about Yeah, yep, those two. But I look
21:07
at Prodigy and I'm like, I should love this. I should love this,
21:11
Yeah, but I but I don't. I think it's okay. And
21:15
to clarify, Um, I never actually went to band camp, but I
21:18
did go to several debate camps and the women's Is that better in any way?
21:25
You big nerd? No? Now, Hey, I was in marching
21:27
band I get out of Yeah. Debate camps were, oh yeah, you
21:33
find the hookups. Let me tell you. I was in something called Scholastic
21:41
Team Huh yeah's Team Jeopardy. I say, is that like the guys that
21:48
come together with the Scholastic newsletters? Try to figs books you buy. We
21:52
rolled everyone's book and we bought it all up. You had the top ten,
21:57
like the one you had to have for your collection, the ones you
22:00
have I got, But then you also had the poster of the Lamborghini.
22:04
Oh yeah, well, since we're talking books alert nerd alert, So wait
22:15
a minute, book book fair gets a NERD alert. Yeah, debate,
22:19
callout, I call out. I can call out the name of the episode
22:25
that he's describing. Yeah, and I get nothing. Come on, that's
22:29
right, that's rights. Yeah, grieve. I want to grieve the unequal
22:37
distribution of nerd alerts. The nerd alert is tied to the paramount plus algorithm.
22:42
That's it. Absolutely, It's like a box of chocolates. You never
22:48
know what you're gonna get. Okay, Well, since we're supposed to be
22:52
talking about stranging worlds, Oh yeah, I did come up with something that
22:56
I thought would be kind of fun to do. So this is a chart
23:00
of just questions, predictions, whatever. Oh my god, it's got a
23:04
color coded chart alert, nerd alert. It's color coded for TV. It's
23:15
color coded for Pride month. Oh god, Chad, no, it is
23:22
that look yeah? Yeah, yeah, okay. So each one of these
23:26
likely or likely will go through them one at a time. Okay, so
23:30
first one, um number one returns to the ship for good within the first
23:36
episode. Is that likely or unlikely? Unlikely? Dan, Um, I
23:42
think it's either going to be the last scene of the first episode or it's
23:47
going to happen in the in the second episode. Okay, But so the
23:52
question is first episode likely or unlikely? Yes? So likely likely? Okay,
23:57
Well I think they only have ten episodes. I'm gonna go with likely
24:00
as well. So how do we rank these if it's a U or an
24:04
L as opposed to a number, So you asn't unlikely, L isn't likely?
24:10
I get that part, like you just got to go back and manually
24:14
count them up as being a score you add, okay, gotcha? Yeah,
24:17
and then all right, next one spot turns evil for at least one
24:21
episode. Likely okay, yeah, um m yeah, likely Okay, I'm
24:32
gonna go unlikely. All right, maybe they'll save that we visit the Mirror
24:37
Universe likely or unlikely? Unlikely? Say wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
24:42
wait wait wait wait wait who visits? Who visits the Mirror Universe? The
24:47
characters or we the viewer. Let's go with we the viewer. Okay,
24:52
then I think we the viewer may view the the Mirror Universe, but the
24:57
characters will not because it has to be something new When mirror mirror comes up.
25:03
Okay, Chad, were you likely or unlikely? Unlike? Unlikely for
25:07
this season? Okay, I'm also gonna go unlikely. I think all right,
25:11
the new Chief Engineer survives the season and remains at the on the ship.
25:18
Unlikely. I say unlikely as well, especially with who it is.
25:22
She's here for one season. You can see the point. But I'm gonna
25:26
go likely, just just to see. Yeah, the ship blows up.
25:30
Unlikely, unlikely. I'm gonna say likely because it's going to be in an
25:37
alternate timeline. Okay, let's see it. We're gonna see it blow up,
25:41
but it's gonna be backed by the line. I'm gonna go unlikely.
25:47
I think you know, yeah, unlikely. Pike's ultimate fate is somehow avoided.
25:53
Unlikely, unlikely, Okay, unavoidable. Yeah, I kind of think
25:59
the same thing. Hammer returns in a flashback or otherwise likely. Unlikely.
26:10
Yeah, you've done that, You move on. I think he'll pop up
26:14
somewhere. We see the cartoon version of at least two Strange New Worlds crew
26:19
members during the crossover. Likely. I'm gonna say unlikely. I don't think
26:26
we see the cartoon version of anybody in the crossover episode. I think it's
26:30
all live action. I think I think we will. I think that's part
26:33
of the get and they're saving it. So I'm gonna go likely as well,
26:38
Discovery gets name dropped. They have to say Discovery not like that's strange
26:44
mission or whatever, not allude to it. I'm gonna say unlikely, because
26:55
I think that that ship has sailed, Okay, I mean I agree with
27:00
that. Yeah, yeah, I agree with that. I don't think they
27:04
should at all. I think they should just forget about it and not have
27:07
it in anything way, shape or form tied to Strange New Worlds. But
27:11
we already had Spock talk about his sister last episode or last season. So
27:18
I'm gonna say I'm gonna say likely that somewhere quick small maybe. I mean,
27:25
I think there's by a fifty I think there's a greater chance, a
27:27
fifty one percent chance that it will versus forty nine what his sister, Yeah,
27:32
he says his sister, Yeah, in the last season he does,
27:36
he does. I think likely. I think just because it's wrapping up,
27:38
they'll give it a reason to name drop it and that's it. Yeah.
27:41
Yeah, there is a reference to an Enterprise character, as in like Archer
27:48
and all them. Yes, yeah, it's likely. Yeah, Okay,
27:52
I also agree they'll they'll make a reference to him, all right, So
27:56
that that's it. That's the questions. So we'll go back through at the
28:00
end of the season two and see how accurately were Yeah. Do you think
28:04
his brother's gonna show up this season? I mean could be. I think
28:11
so. They teased it. It also felt like when well, we'll seeve
28:15
fans want it, and then we'll throw it in. I think it's I
28:21
think he's gonna show up. Excuse me. I think he's gonna show up,
28:26
but he's not going to interact with the Enterprise and the Enterprise crew.
28:30
I think it's gonna be an episode where Spock is off the ship doing whatever,
28:37
and that's the episode where they deal with Cibok because it still has they
28:41
still have to preserve what happens in in Star Trek five where what do you
28:47
have a brother? Nobody knew you had a brother? Yeah, I can't
28:53
wait till he meets his other brother, Phil fill The Vulcan's got a trucker,
28:59
had got a dog named Patriot shop on Walmart. Oh boy Loves so
29:15
we do have I don't you mentioned Oh shit, I hit the wrong button.
29:18
Hold on, I know you mentioned this, um, but there was
29:26
a leak somewhere somehow, we don't know. Yeah, Maga spok exactly to
29:32
match your hipster spock. Yeah. Um, you could do that with shrimn
29:37
make and Or great again and say and or instead of Andria. Yeah whatever
29:45
man? Yeah, no, Um, season two, we know every name
29:52
of every episode one through ten. I love you know you want to go
29:56
through them and speculate on what they let go. Episode one, the Broken
30:00
Circle. Okay, we kind of already know what that one's gonna be about.
30:03
That's gonna be about her. There's gonna be aout number one going on
30:06
trial. That's what they mean about the number, the Broken Circle. I
30:08
kind of that's my special, the three of them. Exactly, yeah,
30:12
exactly. Um. Number two is add astra per aspara. I think that's
30:18
a more of an advertisement for a new form of aspirin than anything else.
30:22
Sounds like it something does Did you? Did you throw that? In?
30:27
The Latin translator to no, let's do that means let's do that, let's
30:33
go for Latin translation, ad astra. I think means from space. Yeah,
30:38
yeah, it does. I bet it's the daughter's Embaku's daughter add Astra
30:45
per Aspara. Is that what you said, Yeah, ad Astra per Aspera
30:52
stars. Yeah, to the stars through difficulties. Okay, either one.
30:56
Um, that doesn't really give us a clue as to what that could mean.
31:02
Maybe Pike goes rogue and like he's he's been told don't move the ship.
31:07
This is where we get the Enterprise reference and we get Spot being evil
31:11
because they go through that section of space before they get to the Zindi where
31:15
everybody, all the Vulcans go nuts. Oh yeah, yeah, remember that.
31:18
That's right. So at the Kennedy Space Center. Um, there is
31:27
a tribute to Apollo one on the lives of Gus Grissom, Ed White and
31:33
Roger Chaffee and the Apollo one Tribute and uh yeah that's the slogan. Mhmm.
31:44
Interesting. So I don't somehow tie back to that. Maybe, all
31:52
right, what's the next one? Or maybe we lose somebody, We lose
31:56
somebody in that episode. Yeah, the Chief Engineer Episode three is tomorrow and
32:06
tomorrow and tomorrow. What are our guess is that that's a time loop episode.
32:09
Oh yeah, what the hellisode? I want to see Harry Mudd in
32:17
that one. Oh boy, that would be great. I mean, it'drry
32:22
him back, but I don't know if he's he's in the cards. Yeah,
32:23
I'd love to have him back. He was awesome. Yeah. Uh.
32:27
Episode four is among the Lotus eaters. Oh so screams. We go
32:37
to a new planet and there's a problem. We're gonna fix it. It
32:39
reminds me of the flowers that made Spocket all happy and excited and play the
32:45
play the flute or whatever it was, the little oh yeah, yeah,
32:47
a little guitar thing he played in the original series. The ukulele he played.
32:52
Didn't he play the local didn't he play a ukulele? I know,
32:53
at first I thought flu but no, it's a ukulele. I thought it
32:57
was a mono sin no, little kazoo kazoo? Yeah, pulls out a
33:05
harmonica. Yeah, I smores happen, Yeah, ro ro row your boat
33:13
all over again. L harp? Yeah, yeah yeah yeah? Was it
33:21
a vulcan harp? I thought it was a little like it wasn't. It
33:23
wasn't a flute or a ukulele or a lute, which is like a ukulele
33:30
he brought. He busts out his harp. He's about to go to Coachella.
33:32
It's all good. Ah, that's right, Yeah it was. It
33:36
was the Coachella episode. I don't know where Coachella comes from. It's Coachella,
33:39
but all right, yeah, it's it's it's called Spot Takes Ecstasy.
33:44
That's the whole episode. That's the whole Jim Dripping Boy. Episode five is
33:52
called Charades. I don't think this is a poker game. They just play
33:59
the games, reminds me. In the catastrophic system failure all over the ship.
34:12
Okay, turbo lifts are down. They need to communicate with the other
34:15
parts of the ship. Um hand signs audio. Yes, audio comes are
34:22
down. But Captain, we have visual spike. He's like two words.
34:30
First word sounds like sounds like luke foot. Why wouldn't you just take a
34:42
pad your message? I don't know. Come on, because writing there's no
34:49
right note writing strike already done. Oh man, next one, Next one
34:58
is lost in translation. This is the Charades episode. Yeah, this is
35:04
the universal translator, Brakeskin, Everything exactly exactly is gonna save us. Learning
35:12
an entire lane. She was she was good for that back in the day.
35:17
Yeah, I'll just learn this alien language and then it will be fine,
35:22
right right. You had to have somebody like that in the beginning,
35:27
though, so I got absolutely it was weird, but I kind of got
35:29
it. Yeah. Uh, episode seven, the one we all are waiting
35:32
for, that we wish was first the name of the episode, the one
35:37
we were all one, we're all waiting for. Uh, those old scientists.
35:43
This is the crossover episode where we get to see live action and live
35:47
action Mariner Episode seven. And yeah, I don't know if we're gonna see
35:54
cartoon anything. I think we will. Yeah, i'd be interesting if we
35:59
did how they how they would work that. I think they're hiding it.
36:01
Yeah, yeah, even if it's just if it's just a five second scene
36:07
at the end, reflecting on the episode. You know, Boimler and Marin
36:12
are reflecting on the episode, but since they're the focus, it's from their
36:15
point of view, and I could see that they're they're reflecting, like you're
36:21
saying, looking at a pad and you see the cartoon versions of the character,
36:25
yes, yes, or the holiday program or you know whatever. Yeah,
36:34
Um, Jasmin's thinks the strike the writer strike is gonna hurt the season
36:37
the next season, season three. It already has. They have said that
36:40
it is delayed already. Yeah, yeah, so will get a We will
36:46
get a We will likely get a Shades of Gray type episode for Strange New
36:52
Worlds. So yes, yes, absolutely, the final count Down song we
37:00
played somewhere. We may actually get the Charades episode. And see, I
37:07
think by the time they that all that's over and and you need to have
37:12
things prepped and ready, I think they can probably make up for that to
37:14
where there's not a whole lot of lost time in terms of what I mean,
37:16
depends on when it's over. Last I read the studios don't even want
37:21
to negotiate. They're like, no, we've made our deal. That's it.
37:22
Yeah. It's strange how some of this stuff is affecting things, and
37:30
sometimes how other people um interpret that, you know. I read I read
37:35
an article where they were saying that certain productions are moving forward yep, but
37:38
because there's a writer's strike, they have to film things as written on the
37:45
page. Yes, you can't. You can't improvise because improvising is writing,
37:50
and the writers are on strike right now. So this article was saying that
37:54
you know they're filming uh Deadpool, yep, right now, and he's famous
38:00
for improvising. Yeah, and they're saying that he has to stick to the
38:04
script, and you know, my take on it is they probably won't do
38:08
that. He will probably improvise the hell out of it. Oh sure,
38:13
Sure, and they will just pay whatever fines come down the pike for that
38:17
better because that's or because he wears a mask the entire time. They're hoping
38:23
the writers strike ends between the dime filming is over and all the CGI and
38:29
then they can just say, oh, we improvised in post. Yeah.
38:35
That's because it doesn't count until you air it, right, can't It can't
38:38
be yeah, exactly, he can't. No no. In a labor type
38:43
situation, if they're employing people in that job and paying them to do that
38:46
job, but they're doing someone else's job and violation of labor agreements, it
38:52
doesn't matter when the product is unveiled to the public. Right work was done
38:55
and the people were compensated for the work, and the work was done in
38:59
proper and the people were compensated improperly. That's why I'm saying they'll probably just
39:04
say whatever, we're doing it anyway, we'll pay the fines. Yeah.
39:07
You know, George Lucas back in the day, I think it was the
39:10
Director's Guild or whatever told him, you have to have opening credits in Star
39:15
Wars. You can't just you can't just start the movie. He said,
39:17
no, I want to do this thing with the crawl, and they said,
39:20
nope, you're gonna have to pay a fine. And he said,
39:22
well, fuck it, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna make my movie
39:23
the way I want to do it, and I want to pay the fine.
39:25
And he did. He paid a fine for every one of those movies
39:30
that came out, and I think that will probably do the same thing,
39:34
just to preserve the the art, the feel of it, the feel of
39:38
it. Yeah, yeah, you can't. You can't do that kind of
39:42
a movie without without that feel from Ryan Reynolds. You just can't. Yeh
39:46
yeah, probably all right. What's the next one? Episode eight? Under
39:51
the Cloak of War? This is in cling on an episode? Oh?
39:54
Is that the cling Yeah? Well, I don't know. I'm just guessing.
39:58
Could be that's right, sounds right. Well, they love cloaks,
40:02
they love war exactly. How could it be anything else? Yeah? Maybe
40:07
it's it can't be the Romulans can it? And um, are we too
40:12
early for the Romulans? We are too early. It doesn't matter. They'll
40:15
do what they want. They'll do it anyway. Yeah. Yeah, Um,
40:17
we know that there's a cling On episode coming and we know it's and
40:21
we know it's the Clingons that we love. We know it's like, yeah,
40:24
the good ones, the good to be, the right looking ones.
40:29
Yeah, the ones that aren't from the north. God just stop stop all
40:37
right? Next one, Uh, Subspace Rhapsody. Oh, that's the episode
40:44
I was just gonna say, this is the musical one. Yeah, why
40:47
would that? I just need somebody to say. There is yep, yep,
41:01
and episode ten, which will probably have some huge spoilers in it.
41:06
It's called Hegemony. And this is when all of a sudden they're in the
41:07
Delta quadrant and we see, uh, what are those those guys that always
41:13
hunts? That's no hegemony. This is when Pike visit Visit's a hedge fund.
41:22
Yeah yeah, I remember from um, I remember from when I played
41:28
Star Trek online. The Gorn uh government it's called is called the Gorn Hegemony.
41:36
You played wood game Alert nerd Alert Okay, how is that a nerd
41:44
alert? It's star Trek online, don't You're gonna ask the algorithm? That's
41:52
right, But yeah, it was the Gorn hegemony was the was the name
41:54
of your federation? Okay? And the the barn where they enslaved races and
42:01
at them. Right, everyone's delicious, it's all. It's all their accounts.
42:06
Everybody's are kind. I think that it won't be the Farangie, that's
42:15
for sure. Yeah, well it could be. It doesn't matter, No,
42:20
it really doesn't as long as you know it doesn't. I don't know
42:22
whatever. I don't want to rewrite all of tng though, do you.
42:27
I don't want to rewrite all that's anymore? What is it another thirty years
42:34
forward from where we are now? Thirty five? Well no, but that's
42:37
but that wasn't the first interaction with the Farngie, right, that wasn't the
42:44
first time the Federation met the Farancie. Yeah. They were on enterprise.
42:47
Yeah, they didn't know what they were though, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
42:53
but they were there. That's true. That's true. Yeah, we
42:58
had Frankie Elix. So we're right back to it could be anything. Yeah,
43:02
that's right. Yeah, yes, exactly. Funny enough with the writer
43:09
strike, all the writers for all these episodes are named Yeah, yeah,
43:15
the directors were not. Those are written a year ago. Yeah yeah,
43:20
they were written a movie more than a year ago. Just because of the
43:22
way things have shook out, You really think so that far back? Yeah,
43:27
because they were talking about season two a long time ago. You don't
43:30
think they did any kind of updating, rewriting or anything after the success of
43:35
season one. Oh, they probably did some, but not not to the
43:38
extent that you're probably thinking. They planned these things of far in advance,
43:45
because it's not just writing it, it's then making all the props, all
43:47
the costumes, all the sets. Like it takes a lot for them to
43:51
just willy nilly change a thing. This is true, and then how it
43:57
fits into the what their overall storys are and everything, like, Yeah,
44:00
they can't just do something. Yeah yeah, So mhmm. Anything else we
44:12
want to say about season two? When does it come out? Fifteenth?
44:17
So eleven days? Flash comes out? One? Wasn't it August? I
44:24
don't know when? Is it? No? It's this month? Oh?
44:28
Is it? Yeah? It's this month? Look it up? It comes
44:32
out seen the next day. Yeah, sixteenth. Yeah, and the way
44:42
movies work, it's actually actually gonna be the fifteenth because yeah, they come
44:45
out that evening. Yeah, darn, I may have to go do both.
44:50
Oh yeah, it'll be busy. Yeah. Are we gonna go back
44:52
to our quick reactions? Oh? I think we should? I think we
44:58
should. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. People don't like it, big
45:01
bumps. Yeah cool, even more so far than Piccard, honestly, because
45:07
so many people were kind of turned off by the first two seasons of Piccard
45:10
versus finally getting around season three, I think a lot of people are gonna
45:15
be tuning in to watch these as they air that night or that day anyway.
45:19
Yeah, so Piccard brought a lot of people back, and I did
45:22
see in a lot of chat like, oh wow, is it always this
45:24
good? No, Stranger World's good though, Okay, wow is it always
45:28
this good? No? You came back at exactly the right the right time.
45:31
Yeah yeah, yeah, I did see that in quite a few message
45:36
boards. So yep, Well should we get to feedback? Yeah, yeah,
45:44
let's do it. Hey. Hey, hey, I still don't know
45:55
where I got that from. I really don't remember how that getting together?
46:00
Whatever? U, Chad, do we have any feedback from the coffee account.
46:07
Let me go pull that up real quick. I don't have any um,
46:13
I don't have any voicemails. I can tell you that much, and
46:15
I don't. I don't think I have any emails, but I'll double check
46:16
that too. I have not sent out the prizes yet from the last episode,
46:22
but I do have the mailboxes. I got them today or yesterday,
46:28
so I will be sending them out after the show. All right, So
46:30
you said you don't have any voicemails, maybe this is a good time to
46:34
give the number out. It's yeah, six to eight seven zero four four
46:37
eight eight one six to eight seven zero four for eight. Operators are not
46:43
standing by. No one's gonna that. It's gonna ran a couple of times,
46:47
and then you can leave a message and we will play it on the
46:50
show. So it give us a call eight one six to eight seven zero
46:52
four for eight when it's when it's a radio voice, any dude, I
47:01
can't I can't tell on the coffee account anymore. When these things came in
47:10
like how far back like it looks like, yeah, there's nothing there that
47:17
shows me dates anymore. But a few of these are are new. So
47:22
if Scott can, you can bought a coffee And he said, wait,
47:23
so if I contribute funds and contribute to the show, doesn't that make me
47:28
a producer? Hello? Well strong Beard Bowders, executive producer for Trek Casts.
47:35
I mean it's not wrong. Yeah, that was the latest one that
47:43
probably was. I mean, I guess that's newish. Yeah's as gonna say,
47:47
some of these look somewhat new. So commitder Felton comes in and says,
47:50
what are your what are you going to review after Picard is done here?
47:53
We are to talk about stranging worlds. And of course you've had a
47:57
few episodes in between, so he's probably heard those. And then Eric Woods,
48:00
uh, yeah some games. Are you boys confirmed for STLV yet?
48:05
Let me know I'm ready to book Yes, And he gave us he gave
48:08
us his email address to everybody because anybody can see that, which is fine.
48:15
Yeah, no, it's great. Yes, we are, we are,
48:19
we are booked. We are ready, We're booked. We're booked them
48:21
there for the week yep, yep. Then over on the emails, Yeah,
48:27
like I thought, there's no Uh, I'm gonna make sure I don't
48:30
see anything. We check the email on my end, the charitable thing is
48:36
up. So okay, we're in the top one eighty in every chart that
48:42
there is basically for podcasting United States, Great Briton, Canada, Jerremany,
48:46
Spain. We're in the top one eighty of everything. You know why that
48:51
is? Why? That is because, uh, Scott Powder's wife desire where's
48:57
her trek cash shirt out once s grocery shopping. She's spreading She's spreading the
49:02
word at the Piggy Wiggly and people are picking up on it and speaking of
49:07
Scott there is that's right, that's right, yeah, word at the minards.
49:15
Yeah. So to pick with Daniel, you know, yeah, I
49:24
make a joke at the expense of someone's wife, and like a nano second
49:29
later, you put that person on the air right now, right, Yeah,
49:36
Well she loves the shirt, so you know, production value, Dan,
49:40
Yeah, it's great, it's great. Yeah. Well, you know,
49:44
I come on the show every once in a while, just because you
49:45
know, every once in a while if you watch a radio show, you
49:47
know, sometimes the producer has to come on and set everybody straight. But
49:52
really the only reason I wanted to come on today is I want to let
49:55
Dan know that I am, in fact working on uh ode to spot the
50:02
Deuce. So it's uh, it's in the beginning stages. It's it's a
50:07
it's a lot of work. I mean, if you've never written a poem
50:10
like that, I mean a lot of a lot of work, thought goes
50:13
into it. So you know, it might be ready by Christmas. We'll
50:16
see. See. So let me let me let me ask you something.
50:21
Um, all those big tough bikers that you hang out with on the weekend,
50:24
do they know that you write Star Trek poetry? Absolutely? Absolutely,
50:29
yeah, yeah, I mean I'm I'm a man of many many facets.
50:34
You know, I'm a Star Trek fan. Uh you know, so I'm
50:37
a sci fi nerd, but I also write a Harley so but but strong
50:43
beerd. The minute you mentioned that, I guarantee you one of them says,
50:45
yes, but you haven't heard that one in the original cling on This
50:50
is true, This is this is very Have you been there? Yeah,
50:52
that's exactly what happens. Yeah. So no, No, I've got patches
50:57
on my h on my motorcycle. Vest I've got like uh, in fact,
51:01
I got an enterprise patch like from the show starterk Enterprise and somebody actually
51:07
came up to me and looked at the patch and says, oh, were
51:08
you in the Navy. I'm like, I wasn't. So I used to
51:14
ride. I don't have a bike anymore, but I used to ride and
51:16
on my vest I had a TNGR combadge right where it should be uniform.
51:24
And uh, all the time I'd be passing by somebody, ye leather clad,
51:30
and they throw up the vault. I mean we we really are everywhere.
51:37
Oh, absolutely absolutely. And I saw, you know, I was
51:40
at a blessing of the bikes up in Baldwin. It's one of our big
51:43
motorcycle events, and I saw other Star trek uh you know, patches on
51:47
people's you know, vests and stuff. So it's a it's around, it's
51:52
out there, you know. Oh yeah, people are complex, they love
51:55
many things. Yeah. Yeah. I also just want to say super excited
52:00
for for the new season of Strange New Worlds that come out. You know,
52:05
this is this is a great, great time. For seven years ago,
52:08
none of us thought that we were going to be amongst all this stuff,
52:13
you know, we never thought it was going to be so popular.
52:15
Paramount Plus and and and new shows and you know Discovery aside, but um,
52:22
you know it's I never thought that, you know, twenty twenty three
52:28
from like twenty I don't know when the Discovery came out, twenty seventeen or
52:30
whatever on that there's gonna be such a resurgence. What a time to be
52:35
alive. If you're a Star Trek fan, I like Prodigy. Um it's
52:42
now. It's not for everybody, but I've got an eleven year old and
52:45
and he's he totally digs it. Um. You know, the storyline is
52:50
a little bit, you know, geared for kids. Obviously, the dialogue
52:52
is geared for kids. But if you're also a hardcore Star Trek fan,
52:58
then you can get a little bit out of that. Two you can recognize
53:01
obviously you recognize ele of us. They're all we're in Starfleet uniforms, Star
53:05
Trek shifts, all that kind of stuff. Yeah, so you know,
53:07
if you got kids, definitely, If you don't, yeah, maybe check
53:10
it out first few episodes. But it wasn't bad, right arm Yeah.
53:16
Yeah, Jerome the uh the new start New Spider Man. I can't wait
53:21
to watch that. It looks that's gonna be a good animation that they do
53:24
with it yep, yep, yep. And I'm also looking forward to the
53:28
Flash. I'm looking forward to the Flash. In fact, we just got
53:30
done watching eighty nine Batman yesterday. Tonight we're gonna watch Batman Returns and then
53:37

docket too. Some YouTube videos out there about Batman Unshane, which was supposed
53:46
to be the third Michael Keaton Batman movie. We have the script. It's
53:51
out there, like you can read what it was going to be. That
53:53
was that was that was reworked. It became d Jangle unchanged. That's right,
53:58
Yeah, exactly, very similar plot. Yeah, very little was changing
54:05
in the script, really very little, very little. Yeah. I mean,
54:07
if you close your eyes, absolutely the language is almost the same.
54:14
The original script was Batman kill someone says the da silent Ye. You know
54:21
something I noticed and watching rewatching Batman yesterday. You know Batman's no kill policy.
54:27
He tried to kill the Joker at the end of the movie. He
54:30
straight up through some bombs at him. I mean machine gun fire, those
54:34
gatling guns on the bat Wing. Yeah, he blew up a chemical fact.
54:38
He's a murdering fool. Yeah, he's mhm m hm hm ye crazy.

57:09
two ice packs and jam them behind the screen. So Dan Solo Air to
