- 3:20Yeah, I hope. So it's been rough. It's been rough.
- 3:24But one of the one of the things I've also been doing is that I

- 4:41just had a friend of mine, Gabe, He's he saw that I was

- 4:47I haven't. I always saw the first, first or second season of
- 4:50Discovery is the rest? Does it get better? And I'm like, well,
- 4:58for some people it did, That's right, for some not all.
- 5:01Season five is going to be a savior. This is that's where they finally
- 5:05pull They're gonna pull Dan in with season five and yeah, yeah yeah.
- 5:13I asked the chat if anyone's excited for Discovery season five and bron said says,
- 5:16no, but I will. I will watch it. Yeah, yeah,
- 5:24so I was most likely watch it too. What's the format for it
- 5:28tonight? Are we doing? Do we have news or stories? Oh?
- 5:30We do? Okay, well, well, geez, Scott stopped, you
- 5:34know, monopolizing the mic. Let the guys. We'll do one quick entertainment
- 5:42news news. We've got some really sad news coming out of the world of
- 5:51Hollywood. This is something that Dan brought up to me earlier today. I
- 5:56was yeah. According to the AP, unfortunately, actor Lewis Costa Jr.
- 6:02Has passed away at the age of eighty seven. He was the first black
- 6:06man to win Supporting Actor Award for or Oscar for Supporting Actor I didn't see
- 6:14anywhere what the cause of death was, but you know he was eighty seven.
- 6:17Yeah, yeah, said he passed away in Santa Monica earlier today.
- 6:25And yeah, I mean this guy, big, big deal, tons of
- 6:30movies. Yeah, in the eighties, he was in everything. He was
- 6:33in everything. Officer and a Gentleman, he was in Roots, Yeah,
- 6:41big big. I'll always remember him in Iron Eagle. That's yes, well,
- 6:46kid, that's sort of the first thing I saw you man. Yeah,
- 6:48so I you know Iron Eagle obviously, I remember Iron Eagle, Officer
- 6:55and a Gentleman as a classic film. But he had a part in a
- 7:00sci fi movie called Enemy Mind. I don't know if you guys remember Enemy
- 7:04Mind? Did you see that? Scott? Do you know that one?
- 7:08Probably when it like a year after it came out, so I don't remember
- 7:12it very well. But yeah, I know the movie. You're talking about
- 7:15the effects. Yes, some of the you know, some of the effects
- 7:19don't hold up as well. But still a great story there you go,
- 7:24Still a great story. Still a great performance by him, you know.
- 7:28And yeah, yeah, And a few weeks back, I thought to myself,
- 7:32you know, I haven't seen that one in a while. I should
- 7:34watch that one, and I didn't, and I feel like that's something I'm
- 7:40probably gonna do this weekend. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, I think I
- 7:44might too. I'm sure I will at some point this weekend. But I'm
- 7:48gonna go see the Gatzilla movie tonight. That's fine. Yeah, you can
- 7:51do that. We'll allow it. Thank you. Different time zones we get
- 7:57done earlier with me. Yeah, I got time, all right, So
- 8:03let's get let's get into Star Trek is then, because there's a lot of
- 8:07it Star Trek news. All right, So our first Star Trek news story.
- 8:13I don't know if you guys saw it earlier this week, maybe just
- 8:16a few days ago. There was a big write up about Star Trek in
- 8:20Variety. Right, he's like one of the big premiere Hollywood trades. But
- 8:28they did a big, big write up about Star Trek and its current state.
- 8:35It was pretty interesting. I'd never seen them really do this for any
- 8:39other franchise. They basically broke down where the franchise has been and where it's
- 8:45at now, talking about how Discovery has been around for a while and it's
- 8:50going to be ending soon. That Strange New Worlds and The Cards season three
- 8:56were the first shows to crack the top ten of stream shows, which was
- 9:01really interesting they brought that up, and not Discovery cracking that top ten because
- 9:07it hasn't yet that we know of. Yeah, because of reasons, Because
- 9:13of reasons. It's because we've been trash talking it only us Garrett. Yeah,
- 9:22yeah. But they did go on to say that they interviewed head star
- 9:30Trek guy right now, Alex Kurtzman, and Kurtsman says he's not going anywhere
- 9:35anytime soon. He's still going to stay at the Helm and once run this
- 9:39thing. I did see an analysis on this article that I thought was interesting
- 9:46and I might wanted to bring this up here. There's a guy named Robert
- 9:50Myers Burnett who is a Hollywood producer. He's done several movies including he was
- 9:54a producer on these Agent Cody Banks films, and he also produced a lot
- 9:58of Start Trick Uh documentaries. And he basically he's hated all the New Trek
- 10:05except for season three of the Card. He doesn't even like Strange New Worlds
- 10:11really, but yeah, yeah, yeah, he says it's okay, it's
- 10:15the best thing done other than the Card season three, but it's still not
- 10:18what it should be But anyways, he basically said that this whole piece to
- 10:24him screamed as like trying to make it sound like Star Trek was doing better
- 10:30than what it is and helping for the sale of Paramount to let people know
- 10:35this is the big crown jewel that we have and you buy us. So
- 10:39it's basically that I'm slapping the hood saying yeah, yeah, there's so many
- 10:46you can sell it through this thing, baby, Yeah, yeah, which
- 10:50I can kind of see. You know. We we did find a few
- 10:54other things out of there. That's all kind of Star treking his little tidbits.
- 10:58We did learn that in the section thirty one movie, there is going
- 11:01to be a character that's familiar to us, Captain Rachel Garrett, who was
- 11:07the first female Captain of the Enterprise. If you don't remember, that character
- 11:11was shown in Yesterday's Enterprise as the Captain of the Enterprise. See, so
- 11:18we'll be getting that a little bit more of that character. That's cool,
- 11:20giuse us a little bit of the timeline. Interesting. Yeah, we were
- 11:26also told that Strange New Worlds will not be released until twenty twenty five,
- 11:31which kind of makes sense for they're shooting it now and they've got really effects.
- 11:37They're also getting a new science lab set that they're excited about. So
- 11:41yeah, I also heard that I can't remember the actress's name. She plays
- 11:50Lan what's her name, Strange New Worlds, uh something like that. Yeah,
- 11:58yeah, was she was spotted at the Section thirty one rap party,
- 12:03so they're saying, and someone else someone else was there also, so they're
- 12:07wondering if there's going to be some some crossover of characters maybe, but I
- 12:13mean they all shooting Vancouver, so it could just be a yeah, a
- 12:16free night so I and they do that kind of stuff too sometimes to you
- 12:20know, throw people off. Well not only that, but you know,
- 12:26they're all kind of living up there temporarily while they shoot their shows. Yes,
- 12:30it's just more like here's a company function, come enjoy it, you
- 12:33know. Yeah, there's some there's some photos floating around. Yeah, of
- 12:37it must have been Star Trek Nemesis was shooting at the same time as whatever
- 12:46corresponding season of Enterprise, So there's photos out there of Scott Vacula and Patrick
- 12:52Stewart and Brent Spiner. They're all in costume. Yea, they're all just
- 12:56sitting there shooting the ship right, right, so people thought it was like
- 13:01some big thing, and I don't know if they thought it was, you
- 13:03know, a crossover anything, but you know behind the scenes photos, right,
- 13:07you know, it shows that, you know what you're saying, that
- 13:09they're all in the same place. They're they're just socializing. But yeah,
- 13:16so those are kind of like the big news stories. The only other thing
- 13:20that came out recently was for those of you who play Star Trek Infinite.
- 13:24I'm sorry, but it's going to be going away. I had never even
- 13:30heard of it. Yeah, yeah, what is that again? It's some
- 13:35video game. I'm not even sure if it's just a mobile game or on
- 13:39stream or so. Yeah, I mean, if we didn't hear it,
- 13:46yeah, I've heard of Star Trek Online, but I've heard of that one.
- 13:52Yeah. Yeah, but yeah, that's that's that's the news stories.
- 14:03Should we should we move on to the main topic? Sure? Okay,
- 14:11fun will now commet? All right? The same topic is our predictions for
- 14:22Trick Discovery season five. It's just around the corner. I'll go first,
- 14:28I'll go first. Yeah, okay, Michael Michael Burnham is gonna cry.
- 14:33Oh, we'll get to predictions. I've got our list of likely and unlikely.
- 14:37Okay, all right, what're we going through? For sure, I'm
- 14:41excited. This is the first time I've been able to be a part of
- 14:43this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So we'll get through that in a
- 14:46little bit. But uh, first I did see the I suffered for the
- 14:50people. I watched the bull Wheaten Ready Room, big half hour extravaganza.
- 14:56But this goes five and uh that was interesting, just a giant, big
- 15:01buck piece about getting excited for the show. It was. It was neat
- 15:07that they talked a little bit about. So it's in Disney. It's called
- 15:11the Volume, that big projector set that they have now apparently on on Star
- 15:16Trek, they call it the holid Deck. That's their turn. That's that's
- 15:18fitting. Yeah, that's fitting. I was like, all right, if
- 15:22I had those, Yeah, if I had one of those, I mean
- 15:26I'd call it that. Yeah, for sure, would you say that that
- 15:31that's the same technology they use on like the Mandalorian, right right. Disney
- 15:35calls it the Volume. These guys are Star Trek's calling it the Holidack.
- 15:39So makes sense. Okay, they did. They did mention how the first
- 15:45time they got to use it was season four and it took a lot of
- 15:48adjusting to it. I do remember that. I can't remember if it was
- 15:52in The Mandalorian or Discovery, but some actors it really threw off their equilibrium
- 15:56because it moves right in the corner of your eye. And so yeah,
- 16:02getting used to that has been quite the thing. You know, it's really
- 16:07not new technology. I mean, Adam West and Burt Ward used to jog
- 16:12in front of a movie screen, right, and it looked like they were
- 16:17running through Gotham City. It's the same thing. It's just it's a bigger
- 16:21screen. It's super high def. Right. If you really want to laugh
- 16:25about stuff like that, go watch like the old Honeymooners and they're moving their
- 16:29car wheels like this because it's just a stationary car. And the guys,
- 16:33you know, they're just you know, like swaying in your in your chair.
- 16:36That's just what they're doing. Yeah. Yeah, if your transmission really
- 16:40did that, you have problems and go get an alignment. Yeah yeah,
- 16:47I just got an alignment on my transmission last week. There you go.
- 16:52I know, cars, there's not a gin on off switch under the hood.
- 16:56I don't know what's wrong with it. I think there's just the lay
- 17:04on my end, I'm going to reas okay, all right, all right.
- 17:11The other thing that they brought up in the Will Wheaton Show is what
- 17:17else did they bring in that they're they're searching for some sort of treasure.
- 17:22Apparently this treasure is supposed to be some grand power in the universe, and
- 17:27apparently some of the themes in the show will be the nature of life.
- 17:33Okay, so they qualifies his life. So they're looking for infinity stones,
- 17:37got it? Got it? Yes? Yeah, so we'll see Thanos pop
- 17:41up and can't wait for that. Okay. Yeah. Did you watch the
- 17:48Will Wheaton Show by chance? I did not? Yeah, as you said,
- 17:53I did not. I knew that you would, and you know,
- 17:56I figured two of us watching it would just be too much. So I
- 18:00did think it was funny that they kept promoting that go watch the majority of
- 18:04Star Trek episodes on Paramount pluts that in phrase it as the majority. They
- 18:11said, you can watch most of your favorite Star Trek shows on Paramount Plus.
- 18:17Yeah, because it's not the home start trick anymore. Prodigy is not
- 18:22on there at all, not at all none. Yeah, it was bought
- 18:26by Netflix. So yeah, and season two is on on the air in
- 18:30uh in France, France and apparently only in French. So yeah, yeah,
- 18:40apparently they're saying for that that there was a mistranslation and misunderstanding and so
- 18:47now that it's air too late. Yeah, it's out in love of it.
- 18:51So yeah, I wonder what Scott is. He was so excited about
- 18:56the likely and unlikelies. Yeah, exactly. I don't want to wait for
- 19:00him. What else do we know about season five? They did say in
- 19:07the Big Briandy article that there's going to be a lot of Indiana Jones type
- 19:11themes, So I guess that's the treasure hunting kind of element of it,
- 19:15Okay, which I didn't know this show, but you know, I don't
- 19:22know, he sounds so excited about this. There is I'm just I'm just
- 19:29really not okay. I'm just I'm just really not. You know. I
- 19:33rewatched, I rewatched the whole thing, right and and I and I went
- 19:38I went into it with a totally open mind. And I think I might
- 19:45have talked about this last week. I don't know if I'm repeating myself.
- 19:48Tell me I went in with a completely open mind. A lot of it
- 19:52I had forgotten. It was like I was watching it for the first time
- 19:57and I just found myself getting annoyed by the same things all over again five
- 20:03years later. So I don't know, it didn't get better. I know
- 20:08that it's you might have gone over this, But did you guys know that
- 20:12it's been over two years since the last time we had Discovery. Yeah.
- 20:23The last episode of season four aired in mid March of twenty twenty two.
- 20:32Oh right, that was before you and I guys, you and I,
- 20:37all of us met in Chicago. Yeah, so it's been a while.
- 20:41When I was watching season one and two and actually all of it, I
- 20:45was like some of those episodes I had zero recollection of Yeah huh. But
- 20:53then you got your transmission online and you're all good now, Yeah, exactly,
- 20:57yeah, exactly, that's good. That's good. I'm glad that worked
- 21:03out. Yeah, that's all about. Yeah. We have some people commenting
- 21:08in the Instagram chat and they are saying that the old technology that they're going
- 21:14to be looking for is the ancient borg. So the ancient the ancient borga
- 21:22like some sort of like ancient borg at the start of the Boorg. Yeah,
- 21:27I hope not. They they kind of I don't know they Yes,
- 21:34they've gotten well over and over and over and over and over again. And
- 21:40did you read the synopsis for the first episode? No? I did not.
- 21:44Did you want to read that? If you want me to, Yeah,
- 21:45go for it. It's called season five, episode run. It's called
- 21:49Red Directive. After an eight hundred year old Romulin vessel is found Captain Burnham
- 21:55in the US is discovery or century Tree of it, but the artifact inside
- 21:59has stolen star or didn't Epic Chase Saru is offered a lifetime position. Oh
- 22:06so, I don't know what that means the eight hundred year old Romulan ship.
- 22:11I was trying to do the math earlier that would put it somewhere between
- 22:15Next Gen and Star Trek the card, right, I think? So you're
- 22:22trying to tie it into the era that we like, right, Yeah,
- 22:26Yeah, that's what they're doing. I know, a good good way of
- 22:27doing that, go there, yeah yeah. Yeah. Well you said you
- 22:33had some some predictions of ours that you wanted to Yeah. No, actually,
- 22:38there there were quotes. The predictions were wildly entertained. I think I
- 22:42went over some predictions last time. Yeah, but uh, what of my
- 22:49not you know. One of my notes here for people who want to participate
- 22:52in the in the show that to come on like jazzmis always does. Can
- 22:56you go over one more time? For those people who haven't been listening very
- 22:59long, how they can come onto the show and give the yeah. So
- 23:03when we call for it, you can x up in the chat, meaning
- 23:06just put an X and we'll send you the link to join our stream yard
- 23:11feed and be part of this. We do ask that you have a webcam
- 23:15so that we can see you and hear you. And yeah, that's based.
- 23:18So if you're participating in the like the YouTube chat, if you're watching
- 23:22on YouTube, or if you're watching yak Instagram as well, I'll keep an
- 23:26eye on that. For some reason, Instagram and ours is separate, so
- 23:30at the poor between the two and is just go last year March seventeenth of
- 23:34twenty twenty two. Yeah, so uh yeah, So I was re listening
- 23:41to the podcast back in actually starting in twenty nineteen twenty even before that when
- 23:49start when Discovery Season one aired and I sort of just listened to the episodes
- 23:53dealing with Star Trek Discovery. One of the things Dan, did you ever
- 24:00sell your condo that's a good question. That's a good question. I've been
- 24:11wondering about this too. There was a lot of condo talk back then.
- 24:14Yeah, yes, I think did you get a price? They'll talk off
- 24:21Okay, I did, okay, okay, all right, I did okay.
- 24:26And then six months later, six months six months later, my wife
- 24:34decided that she wasn't happy with the school district here, and what can we
- 24:40do to get my son into a different school district, a better school district,
- 24:45And wouldn't you and wouldn't you know the condo is in a better school
- 24:48district. If we had just held on to the damn thing, we could
- 24:53have we could have just said, you know what, we paid school taxes
- 24:56there, we can take them out over here and put them over there.
- 25:00Yeah. That being said, uh, don't ask you about the condogan,
- 25:03Okay, it is the sour subject sir. Yeah. So yeah. One
- 25:11of the other things I noticed, will see, besides Chad doing a lot
- 25:14of day drinking, that's there a couple of episodes where you guys were recording
- 25:18at like eleven a m. And he had some kind of like I p
- 25:21a yeah, yeah, that was great. And Daniel, how are you
- 25:26doing? Because my note here says you almost died. Oh yeah, so
- 25:33yeah, I've literally been dead three times. Okay, yeah, we see
- 25:38what happened a few years ago. What happened was I called him up and
- 25:41I told him about the condo. Just peeled over a lot of talk about
- 25:48Daniel's dating life. So Dan and I are married, So okay, yes
- 25:57I have. Yeah. So I've got some quotes that I'm going to,
- 26:03uh, that I'm going to say, and that we're actually spoken by one
- 26:08of the three of you, you, Dan, Daniel or the previous host
- 26:12co host Chad. And I'm going to say the quote. You're going to
- 26:15tell me what your guess is and who said it? All right, boy,
- 26:18I can only imagine. First one is I have too much chest hair
- 26:23for v NEX. That sounds like a Chad quote. It was really no,
- 26:30No, it wasn't. It was Dad. Yeah it was Dad.
- 26:33Yeah, because I like my X, I have no chest hair. Okay,
- 26:37that's that's the clean version of that. Yeah. Yeah. The next
- 26:42one is they squashed their beef. What are they gay? That's Chad,
- 26:48that's got Chad. Indeed, Chad, my mom is a bad cook.
- 26:56Huh. I would not say that about my mom, Daniel, Dad or
- 27:03Chad? That's that sounds like a Chad thing. That was what? Al
- 27:10right? Next one, double penetration photon torpedo? Wait what double penetration photon
- 27:18torpedo? Oh? Man, was I reading my tender account? And he
- 27:26guesses I'm gonna say me just for fun? Okay? It was it was
- 27:32actually Dan. Oh really, I don't I didn't write it down the context.
- 27:37I didn't write that's not even there. No, No'm not going to
- 27:41don't care, I don't care, all right. Next quote is, all
- 27:47right, let's get back to Michael sucking. That's Chad. That was actually
- 27:52you, Dan? Really okay, Well I agree with I agree with me.
- 27:57He stands with that. Yes. The next one is I have a
- 28:04penis and I use it on a vagina. That sounds like Chad. That
- 28:11was Chad. You're welcome, Chad, if you're listening. He got back
- 28:15to me. He said he was looking forward to listening to this. Not
- 28:18anymore? Okay, all right, two more. It's a Chad joke.
- 28:25It doesn't make sense and it's probably half racist. So that was actually said
- 28:33by both Dan and Chad. Dan, you said it, and everybody glossed
- 28:38over it. You said it real quick, and then Chad was like,
- 28:41hold on, I just repeat what Dan just said. And our last one
- 28:47is odo is a newdiest if you think about it. I I don't know,
- 29:00I don't know. I'm going to guess Dan. This one was actually
- 29:03it's my only quote from Daniel. Oh yeah, that's not wrong. No,
- 29:10that's not wrong. Yeah, these are just the things that people think
- 29:12about. Yeah, it was. It was enlightening listening to the last five
- 29:18years of Trek Cast, at least those Discovery episodes. So wow, very
- 29:23interesting. I got to hear like the first voicemail that I ever sent in,
- 29:30which was Cringey, the first email that I ever sent in, which
- 29:34was Cringey. And I'll wrap this up, the Scott segment up real quick,
- 29:41but I do want to say that there is a as far as feedback
- 29:45goes, there is a new email that our listeners can send their comments,
- 29:52questions, complaints, and concerns to UH and the new email address is st
- 30:00Beard one seven one at gmail dot com. So if you want to send
- 30:04any of your complaints or questions into so I'll see them Strong Beard one seven
- 30:10oh one at gmail dot com. Yeah. Cool, and I will add
- 30:14that to the website so people can email you. Awesome. Yeah, all
- 30:18right, well let's uh, Scott is a little stocker ish according to Desiree,
- 30:27just a little just a little bit, just a little bit, a
- 30:30little bit, a little bit. Yeah, all right, you guys are
- 30:33ready to do our big likely is and unlikely? Sure. Yeah, We've
- 30:38got a few of them to go through, so take them one at a
- 30:41time. So yeah, So basically, for those of you are listening,
- 30:45we're gonna give us statement and then we're all gonna say whether we believe this
- 30:48will happen or not, whether it's likely or unlikely to happen, and then
- 30:52we'll keep track of it throughout the season and we'll figure out where we got
- 30:59so our for a statement here, Michael cries in at least six of the
- 31:03ten episodes likely and do we do we wanted to say just tears or full
- 31:12on meltdown, just just tears, just tears as well, Yes, Scott,
- 31:18likely or unlikely? I'm going to say unlikely really in six of the
- 31:23ten yes, okay, Dan, likely? Okay, six to ten?
- 31:32Man, if you said two to ten, I would have bet my life
- 31:33on it, right, But that's why I gave a high number. I'm
- 31:37gonna go unlikely on that. Six seems pretty high. But if it's just
- 31:42tears, it's tough. It's tough. Okay. The next statement, Dan
- 31:51gets pissed off within the first five minutes likely or unlikely? Likely? Yeah,
- 31:57yeah, that's likely. Okay, Dan's likely. I mean, I'm
- 32:00pissed now and I haven't even watched it. That's right, all right?
- 32:05I got that one right, perfect? Perfect, That's like this, that's
- 32:09like the center of the bingo card. You know, everybody? Yeah,
- 32:13everyone gets that one. Everyone gets that one, all right. The next
- 32:17statement is Lily Little Tilly doesn't return until at least episode four likely. Yeah,
- 32:27no, can see we're going to see you in the first episode,
- 32:31you think, so, Yeah, yeah, I think that's unlikely. Okay,
- 32:36so you you both have unlikely. I'm gonna say it likely. I
- 32:39think they're gonna spend the first few episodes just running around causing problems, and
- 32:45we won't see Tilly for a while. So Ru's relationship gets sidelined, basically,
- 32:52no real traction to that. I'm gonna say unlikely because I think that's
- 32:58what they're talking about with his new Lifetime position. I think he's I think
- 33:04he's going to be the first gentleman of Navarre. Okay, okay, yeah,
- 33:07yeah, even before you said that, I think it's I think it's
- 33:12likely they're Wait, how was it phrased again? The relationship gets sidelined basically,
- 33:17no real traction. I think that's unlikely. Okay, I agree with
- 33:22that. Just to be different, I'm gonna say likely. So then that
- 33:24way, at least one of us is wrong, which will probably be me.
- 33:30Okay. The next statement is Paul and Doctor Colbert break up. I
- 33:37think they're gonna get married. Yeah, okay, damn they break up.
- 33:44No, they're not breaking up. Okay, Well, then I'll just to
- 33:46be different, I'll say likely. All right, you don't have to be
- 33:51different. I'm gonna say, because you're not, you're not gonna have any
- 33:53context for being like being different quote unquote when when we do this, I
- 34:00think they'll keep they'll stay together, so I'll leave it alone. Okay,
- 34:04Daniel was wrong a lot of this stuff, that's right, he was,
- 34:08Oh, that's true. Yeah, they already they are already married, so
- 34:12they are. Yeah, that's right. They mentioned it. They mentioned it
- 34:17in the in the first season I thought. I don't remember them saying husband
- 34:23and husband or anything. They never referred to each other as husband. No,
- 34:28I don't think they're No, I think their partners. Okay, I
- 34:32think they used to term partner. I'm kind of a I'm kind of a
- 34:37discovery expert. That's true. You guys both did just watch it. We
- 34:39did just rewatch it. I don't remember them talking about being married. Okay,
- 34:45Uh, there is a serue vulcan president sex scene likely or unlikely?
- 34:53Who's going to get it on the baby? Yeah, we're going to see
- 34:57his uh second stage that gang? So, Dan, you want to see
- 35:06that gangler? You got likely? I didn't say I want to see you
- 35:10got excited? So yeah you did. I'm gonna. I don't think we've
- 35:20seen it, but I'm a picture in surru with his shirt off, as
- 35:25we all do, as we all were dimples that like folds and Yep,
- 35:32No, it is unlikely. I pray that it's unlikely. Put me it's
- 35:37unlikely. All right, we got you down for unlikely, Dan, likely
- 35:40or unlikely. You're muted, Dan, We're not going to see it?
- 35:50No, yes, sorry, I muted to cough and then failed to unmute.
- 35:53We're not going to see it. No, nobody wants to see it.
- 35:58There's people who want to see it. They want to they want to
- 36:02see the ganglia or danglia. Yeah, don't you friend at the angle of
- 36:09that dangle the ganglan do falcon women go through? Pond? Far? Oh,
- 36:15he's the pond get it? Maybe is not gonna have a choice.
- 36:23That's right, He's about to be the pray species, if you know what
- 36:25I mean? All right? Uh, we see future Klingon. We haven't
- 36:34seen them yet in this way, just in future likely or unlike. I
- 36:38hope not, because the way this show goes, we have no idea what
- 36:43they're going to look like. Right, you're gonna say likely. I think
- 36:49we're gonna see Klingons. Okay, so if we do see Klingons, what
- 36:52are they? What are they going to look like? And b are they
- 36:55just going to pretend like everything is normal? Going to be represented JJ Klingon
- 37:01is gonna be represented first season Discovery Cleon's gonna be represented. Uh, next
- 37:07Generation Clingon is going to be represented, and Original Series Slash Enterprise Playons is
- 37:14gonna be represented. I think they're gonna explain it away and call them Northerners
- 37:17and Southerners and Easterners and Westerners. They're all part of the same speed like
- 37:22subspecies of plays. You know what, You know, it's gonna be great
- 37:27five years from now when the guy who takes over for me, when I
- 37:31leave this show and he listens to this, he's going to be joking about
- 37:36how full of shit you were with that, right, that's right? So,
- 37:42Dan, are you saying unlikely for future cleons Man? No, I
- 37:50think we're gonna see him. Okay. I also to think that. Well,
- 37:53I don't think they'll be long. I don't think there'll be a big
- 37:55story thing, but I think they're gonna pop up just to do it all
- 38:00right, next statement, Admiral Pooh Apples shows up in two episodes at least.
- 38:09Yeah, he will be in He will be in multiple episodes. Okay.
- 38:14I love that we call him Pooh Apples, and immediately I would have
- 38:17gone with Crapples, but just rolls off the tongue. You know, it's
- 38:25been so long though, that they're going to have a major change up in
- 38:30storyline and in characters and in more than two episodes. No, I say
- 38:36it's unlikely. Okay, you're gonna see unlikely? Huh yep, you don't
- 38:39think so he's the Commander in Chief of Starfleet, you don't. Yeah,
- 38:43Well, things change, they might mix it up a little bit. That's
- 38:46that's right. It's gonna be Commander in Chief of Starfleet, Michael Burnham,
- 38:51the lady from nine hundred years ago who just showed up. I think we'll
- 38:57see Admiral Pooh apples. So all right, next statement, there is a
- 39:01tease or end credits scene for Star Trek Academy, Likely or unlikely? I
- 39:10think it's likely, Yeah, I mean, even if it's just we don't
- 39:16know for sure that it's set in the century. But that's the strong rumor,
- 39:21right, And they kind of left it that way with Tilly last season,
- 39:25like those were her cadets and that was going to be potentially the next
- 39:30cast that would it be the only good thing about it being set in that
- 39:32century is that is it Tilly is would be involved. I'm going to go
- 39:37with likely. I think there'll be some sort of tease. I don't know
- 39:40if an end credit scene, but for sure some sort of tease. Oh
- 39:45desires is unlikely? Oh okay, all right? Who is the stalker?
- 39:51Now and the other I'm in the office, he's out there somewhere. Okay.
- 40:00Oh. E six is saying that Academy is set in the thirty second
- 40:05century. Yeah, I was hoping they would change their mind. Yeah.
- 40:08Yeah, there's a tease, a tease or an end credit scene for section
- 40:15thirty one. I don't know when's that supposed to come out. We don't
- 40:20know yet. They just filmished wrapping up. Well, according to a trek
- 40:23Cast episode from twenty eighteen that I just listened to, yes, it was
- 40:29out three years ago. Yeah, that's right, that's right. Well,
- 40:35and you know, apparently Loan is going to be in there, so Leon
- 40:42is going to be theirs. I don't know, man, I could see
- 40:46them being that we've got two and a half months for this season to end.
- 40:52That's enough time to at least put together like a teaser trailer. Yeah,
- 40:55I could see them throwing that in at the end of it, like
- 40:59here's the teaser trailer, get ready for section thirty one this fall or something
- 41:02like that. Yeah, yeah, I think that's likely. Okay, Yeah,
- 41:06I gotta say it's probably likely too, Okay, So all right,
- 41:13and then we've also got the writers' producers completely forget about and abandon that.
- 41:19They tease the discovery in short tricks that it's been abandoned. Remember that.
- 41:25Very likely itet about it. It was like way in the future, right,
- 41:32I believe they said it was one thousand years in their future, which
- 41:36is where they're at now. Yeah, huh, yeah, they forgot about
- 41:44it. Okay, I've got watched the short tracks. I yeah, I
- 41:52watched the one with the alien girl that yeah, yeah, yeah, but
- 41:57I didn't rewatch any of the other ones. So my vote likely or unlikely.
- 42:06Yeah, it's likely they forgot about anything they did with short trags.
- 42:09I'm gonna say unlikely. I think that is because they wrote it into their
- 42:15own head cannon. I think they're going to give it an excuse. Okay,
- 42:20So okay, real quick, what was the what was the short trick
- 42:23involving does somebody live in somebody's living on the ship the ship has a personality
- 42:30now which we saw, which it has already had that or whatever, But
- 42:36none of the none of the crew is there, right, there's just one
- 42:39guy living on the ship. Yeah, it's kind of like parked in orbit
- 42:43of a planet. I remember that one, now, Yeah, Okay,
- 42:46Okay, So you know what if that's I would be fine if the ship
- 42:52stays in the thirty second century or wherever the hell they aren't, even though
- 42:57the ship stays there and they all go back to the twenty fifth century and
- 43:02that's where Star Trek lives from now on, I'd be fine with that.
- 43:07Maybe with them going back to the twenty fifth century as well. Maybe that's
- 43:09the special prize that they're looking for, and it takes them all back,
- 43:13and that leads the ship abandoned and there's end your series. Yeah maybe,
- 43:19Yeah, them going to the twenty fifth century wouldn't screw up Cannon. Yeah,
- 43:23so will they abandon it? Likely or unlikely? Scott, Oh,
- 43:29I still think they're gonna abandon it? Or yeah? So do I definitely?
- 43:31All right? And then our last one, for whatever reason, Michelle
- 43:37Yo shows up likely or unlikely? Unlikely? Unlikely, Okay, my gut
- 43:46is unlikely as well, but I want to say likely just in case it
- 43:52happens, because I can I can see them doing it. She maybe shows
- 43:55up in the background for just a hot second, just to tease the new
- 43:59movie. So I think that I'm going to say that. Yeah, I
- 44:05said unlikely, just because from a story line perspective, this is a separate
- 44:08thing that they're involved with now, right. You know in section thirty one,
- 44:15you know Michelle, she was in season three, she was in the
- 44:21future, but she doesn't have much of a storyline there. Her storyline is
- 44:23somewhere else. So I don't think they're going to evolve her again. But
- 44:27I could see like having her hopscotch around different times for section thirty one the
- 44:32movie, and so I can see them throwing her into oh in the background.
- 44:37I think that's definitely possible. I just yeah, yeah, But whether
- 44:42it's likely or not, I'm going to say likely. So all right,
- 44:45well those are all the predictions. If anyone else wants to throw someone,
- 44:51we'll be happy to take it. But yeah, what when's the show start?
- 45:00Next week? Next week we get two episodes? There's two? Oh
- 45:06man, what a treat. What a treat. Indeed, so we're going
- 45:09to get both Red Directive and under the Twin Moons. That it's almost too
- 45:15much. I can't handle it. Yep. Yeah, there is no plot
- 45:20according to IMDb for the second episode yet, So there's there's no plot,
- 45:23Scott that sounds about right. There is no plot. Well, if anyone
- 45:31wants to talk to us, you can x up in the chat. Let's
- 45:35get into feedback, listener feedback, all right, so we do have some
- 45:45feedback. We do in our Facebook group. We put in that we were
- 45:51going to be talking about the prediction show, and we had a few different
- 45:57predictions from people. Peter said that Burnham fails upwards and cries, everyone gets
- 46:05hugs and Sir Us liked, and we don't know the names of the entire
- 46:08Bridge crew, so more of the same. Yeahs says My prediction is you're
- 46:17all going to be disappointed, yes, wins. You know what's funny.
- 46:27You know, I just watched this whole show from beginning to end, and
- 46:30it was and it was it was work. It was work. There were
- 46:35a few pieces in there, there were a few pieces in there that I
- 46:37enjoyed, but for the most part, it was work. And when I
- 46:42was done, you know, Paramount Plus of course suggested I might like this
- 46:47other show called Star Trek Picard. Oh yeah, and so I started rewatching
- 46:53Picard. I didn't I didn't go back to the beginning, okay, I
- 46:59skipped straight to season three. Okay, yeah, and I'm about three episodes
- 47:04in and I'm enjoying every minute of it. Yes, oh that's great.
- 47:09You know so, I don't know what that means. I don't know why
- 47:15I said that. I guess just to contrast between these two shows. I
- 47:21guess, I guess I know why I brought it up. Percard's season three.
- 47:23They finally said, let's give these people what they actually want, right
- 47:28yep. And it was great and for the most part it was successful,
- 47:30and for the most part everyone loved it. So you want to know something
- 47:36really funny about that? About that Variety article where they're puffing up all the
- 47:40Star Trek, they do not mention Terry Mettallas once. Yeah, well that
- 47:47kind of tells you where Legacy stands. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so
- 47:54that sucks. We got Jazz was on the line there he is walking aroun
- 48:00Hello, we'll take my glasses off. I can't see. What do you
- 48:08think about predictions? I think you're spot on? Yeah, I think did
- 48:15you guys put whispering on there? How many times will they whisper on the
- 48:22so much whispering? Yes, you have to have whispering. That is number
- 48:28one detachable in the cells. Number two, Oh god, and it would
- 48:35be numbers. Yeah, and will they eat a Kelpian? So I mean
- 48:42they've eaten one? Yeah? You think Sus tried Helpian before? I mean
- 48:46that's cannibalism. Yeah, no, I hope not. I think the I
- 48:52think the president of the Helpie. Yeah, baby, they here's the after
- 49:00dark that's right, that's right, really embracing that. My wife says,
- 49:07why is Dan the only one that really embracing the after dark theme? Yeah,
- 49:12that's good. It's only afternoon for this guy. Yea dark out for
- 49:15him. He's getting ready for Godzilla right now, that's right. Yeah.
- 49:22Does he goes see some Harry Cheeks? What God, let me write that
- 49:30quote down. Yes, Harry Cheeks cheat from the man who brought you?
- 49:39Uh? Otis is the otis is? Yeah, otis constant constable, that's
- 49:52gonna be brought up constable. Oh say that he was like on the wasn't
- 49:59he the first? Uh? It was on the first. He was one
- 50:02of the engineers on the Defiant. Yeah he was. No, he was
- 50:07a security guy. Yeah. Yeah, remember last on board for like two
- 50:14episodes. Oh, I know what happened? The racist major and murdered.
- 50:17So that's what. Yeah, Yeah, that's a deep cut. That is
- 50:23a deep cut. I just remember that guy always saying that, So right
- 50:29there you go see live action Mopsie. Yep. I would be happy if
- 50:37they had a Lower Decks crossover. I'd probably be happy. I mean as
- 50:44long as the Moopsie drinks somebody's but live action, yes, that's what I
- 50:49want to see. So are you guys mind? They don't have to do
- 50:53a crossover episode, but they could have just a character from Lower Decks show
- 50:59up in something else in section thirty one, or if they ever do Legacy
- 51:02or you know, it doesn't have to be a full on Strange World's crossover.
- 51:07But will you watch this twice? Like? Do you guys usually watch
- 51:13them back to back? What review them? Or the Discovery episodes? Yeah,
- 51:17oh yeah, I will not. I've watched every Discovery episode exactly twice.
- 51:25I gotta watch two episodes the first time it comes back. Yeah,
- 51:30that's enough. Just one man, just one man. There's only so much
- 51:36I can tolerate. I got otis out the window, hanging it all out,
- 51:40too much, transmissions out of alignment, it's all problems over here in
- 51:52Scott your list, I think Chad will kill you. Yeah, all those
- 51:58quotes I wore laughing. I think he's laughing so hard. Yeah, like,
- 52:05oh man, I love you. These are all things you said on
- 52:12the show yourself. The factual records of these these yeah, you see the
- 52:22ratings dip a little bit. The listeners see the reason why I was listening
- 52:29to these on the road. So there's the reason why I didn't like you
- 52:30know, okay, episode you know one five timestamp whatever is Like, all
- 52:37I could do is just repeat the quote over and over and over in my
- 52:40head until I came to it someplace where I could safely write it down.
- 52:44When you were on the road, was it a long road getting It was
- 52:47a long road getting from there. I don't have my voice back yet.
- 52:52Down road. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 52:58I'm the I'm the second guy, yeah, living then saying oh wow,
- 53:04a long road. Yeah you got a little bit. Yeah, sorry,
- 53:14it's still sexy. You guys got a little thing that tonight. I don't
- 53:16know. I got a question too about the Trent Convention this year. Are
- 53:20you guys going to Las Vegas. We're not going to Vegas. We're going
- 53:24to Long Island, Long Island, Okay, what's Long Island? Yeah?
- 53:29When is that? Yeah? Like my flight is end of May early June
- 53:35the first. So, and are we going to Long Island? On Long
- 53:40Island? Is long? I know it's a big thing over there. What
- 53:45is the Long Island? Well, well, it depends if you're in New
- 53:50York City. You're talking about out on the island, Okay, you out
- 53:54on the island, out on the island, okay. Yeah, so you
- 53:58can go to Long Island, but once you get there, you're not at
- 54:00Long Island. You're on Long Island online, okay. Yeah. Yeah.
- 54:06And even though, even though, if you even though, if you look
- 54:08at a map, Brooklyn and Queens are actually part of Long Island, if
- 54:15you're in Brooklyn or Queens, you still refer to it as out on Long
- 54:20Island. You're not actually on Long Island until you cross into the next county.
- 54:24It's yeah, that's crazy. We just got a pretty interesting text.
- 54:30So yeah, there it is. Scott's wife is mean, so he can't
- 54:34go. Yeah, pretty much, that is that is the situation on vacation.
- 54:43So Goot took her and wrote that I saw it. No, yeah,
- 54:46it's like I said. Just a few weeks later, we're actually going
- 54:51on a cruise. Listen, I don't want to start any trouble. Okay.
- 54:54All I'm gonna say is my wife is not the boss of me.
- 54:58So okay, my wife is not the boss meeting. That's why I'm gonna
- 55:02see if I can contact with your Facebook and find out. Okay, Okay,
- 55:08Stalker, I mean, where's Tad? Think about it? Guys,
- 55:15Oh you'll never hear. Wow. No, I think I'm not nervous about
- 55:28against me bad. But really, I have no predictions this week. It's
- 55:34you know, are you excited for season five? No? Too strong of
- 55:38a word? Well yes, and no. I guess it's the final season
- 55:45but yeah, yeah, the final countdown? So can I just don't have
- 55:52any I'm just hoping they'll end it. Well, I don't know. I
- 55:59was like, just don't piss us all off when they ended, oh one
