Strange New Worlds S2E06–07: Lost in Translation & Those Old Scientists

Ken and Bri review two Strange New Worlds episodes. Ken felt “Among the Lotus Eaters”, based  was this season’s weakest episode to date, but even he was surprised to hear Bri call it one of the worst episodes of Trek ever! It’s reminiscent of the Enterprise episode “Twilight” and the Apple TV+ series Severance, all while being based on a passing line from the TOS pilot “The Cage“.We then enjoy a round of “Charades”, which dips back into the “Vulcans are funny!” well by giving them their own form of Festivus — yet the main plot for Bri was the heartbreaking romance between Spock and Nurse Chapel. With SNW being a prequel to TOS, is it a spoiler to know this cannot end well?We also pay tribute to Manny Coto, Enterprise showrunner who recently passed away; and we offer a brief review of the Chicago Gamespace and its tribute to 40 years of TRON.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Strange New Worlds S2E04-05: Among the Lotus Eaters &amp; Charades first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

Captain Sabriel Mastin rejoins the crew to review the latest two episodes of Strange New Worlds. “Ad Astra per Aspera”, an episode that’s been hinted at since the Short Trek “Q&amp;A”, is hailed by some as the best Trek in decades, harkening back to the social commentary of TOS and TNG by providing an allegory for today’s discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community. Meanwhile, “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” pairs two unlikely characters in a timeline gone amok that Sabriel helps Ken make sense of.

In the lead-up to the series finale, two important characters rejoin the cast, including a surprise that left Ken both screaming and crying. (Look, it’s an emotional time, okay) We talk about who we thought the villain should be, why you should never agree to be a returning guest on a live-action Star Trek show, the distinction between memory and personality, the comic relief that is Worf, and the forgotten romances that give additional meaning to some already funny scenes.

Picard S3E08-09: Surrender & Vox

Commodore Dana Ross joins Chief Engineer Ken Gagne to review two episodes of Picard, including what Ken considers the best season’s weakest episode. Many characters from The Next Generation and Voyager return, while others depart; do we have too many threads to follow, or not enough? We pontificate about Changelings, Irumodic Syndrome, and Section 31, Picard’s recurring role as a savior to all mankind, the reunions (of both casts and ships) that drove us to tears, and the new show set in the future of Starfleet Academy.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Picard S3E06–07: The Bounty &amp; Dominion first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

We pontificate about Changelings, Irumodic Syndrome, and Section 31, Picard’s recurring role as a savior to all mankind, the reunions (of both casts and ships) that drove us to tears, and the new show set in the future of <a href="https://twitter.com/StarTrek/status/1641485559850999809" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Starfleet Academy</a>.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-discovery-podcast/id1288719563?mt=2&amp;uo=4&amp;at=10lJ4u" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="http://stitcher.com/s?fid=151858&amp;refid=stpr" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Stitcher</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly90cmFuc3BvcnRlcmxvY2suY29tL2ZlZWQvcG9kY2FzdC8" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Google Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/6h6UArYDW3vc56CgWFDlPx" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/affab19b-4fcf-430c-ba26-d895cdcb10ae/Transporter-Lock-A-Star-Trek-podcast" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Amazon Music</a>, <a href="https://overcast.fm/itunes1288719563/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-discovery-podcast" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Overcast</a>, <a href="https://www.pandora.com/podcast/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-podcast/PC:48136" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Pandora</a>, <a href="http://pca.st/transporterlock" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Pocket Casts</a>, <a href="https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-transporter-lock-a-star-tr-74306455/" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">iHeartRadio</a>, <a href="https://tunein.com/radio/Transporter-Lock-p1038203/" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">TuneIn</a>, <a href="https://radiopublic.com/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-dis-G1a73D" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">RadioPublic</a>, or the <a href="https://archive.org/details/transporter-lock" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Internet Archive</a>.(The post <a href="https://transporterlock.com/picard-s3e07/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Picard S3E06–07: The Bounty &amp; Dominion</a> first appeared on <a href="https://transporterlock.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast</a>.)

Picard S3E06–07: The Bounty & Dominion

The TNG crew responds to a seemingly hopeless fate, followed by the utterly unexpected return of a familiar character. One captain gets an angry moment that was denied to Sisko, while another captain proves more bitter than non-canon novelizations would have him. Ken and Bri continue to be surprised and enthralled by these unexpected twists and turns that nonetheless are consistent with the crew we’ve loved for decades and bring us the closure we didn’t know we needed.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Picard S3E04-05: No Win Scenario &amp; Imposters first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

Are TNG‘s characters staying in character? What are Riker and Picard up to? And does Worf take his tea with sugar?We also talk about Star Trek‘s many connections to Hungary, from Mrs. Columbo to the founder of Paramount; we ask ourselves who was the better Vulcan: Kirstie Alley or Kim Cattrall; we wonder what it’d look like if Man of Steel had been in color; and Ken gets quizzed on the significance of photonic energy.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Picard S3E02–03: Disengage &amp; Seventeen Seconds first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

Picard S3E02–03: Disengage & Seventeen Seconds

Picard‘s third and final season begins — and, as always, Bri and Ken are cautiously optimistic while brimming with questions. Can the writers find something more to Seven of Nine’s character than being ex-Borg? Will Bri’s theory of who Raffi’s handler prove correct? (Almost certainly.) Are the bad guys Romulan, and are they thinking with portals? Does Wil Wheaton’s Tumblr post make us want to cry? Where is Guinan? And just how many daughters does LeVar Burton have?Tangents include Ken calling in from Budapest, where he’ll make a point of visiting the Columbo statue and watching a young Kate Mulgrew in Mrs. Columbo.

Picard S3E01: The Next Generation

Weekly reviews of Star Trek Discovery, SNW, Picard, Lower Decks, Prodigy

She&#39;s basically the Ravenclaw/Hermione (&#39;T)rek friend you always wanted, Ken is Cedric or O. Wood; suddenly, you&#39;re a little more or less lonesome being a Slytherin or Gryffindor, Durmstrang or Beauxbatons student etc.

Have you met Sabriel?

Ken and Sabriel do an incredible job of dissecting each episode of Star Trek: Discovery shortly after it&#39;s aired. You can tell they&#39;ve done their homework when it comes to Trek history and all the connections the show is putting together because if you didn&#39;t catch something, never fear — Ken and Sabriel *did* catch it! Their analysis of the show is well thought out and fun. I listen to a few podcasts that talk about Discovery, but this one is by far the most informative and is my favorite.

Excellent recaps and analysis

New York Comic-Con featured the surprise debut of “Q&amp;A”, the first in a new season of Short Treks. The premiere episode does not in fact feature the return of John de Lancie’s recurring villain; instead, it’s a blast from the past as Ensign Spock arrives for his first day of duty aboard the USS Enterprise. As Number One escorts him to the bridge, Spock takes the opportunity to barrage her with questions, just as Ken and Sabriel barrage the listener with their take on this mysterious commanding officer, the morality and defensibility of the Prime Directive, and the Gilbert &amp; Sullivan musical The Pirate of Penzance.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Short Treks: Q&amp;A first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

The second season finale of Discovery has finally landed, offering plenty of space battles and fisticuffs that didn’t live up to their potential. The episode also tied up plenty of loose threads, but it left few hanging for us to get an idea of what to expect in the next season.But we loved the dialogue and the characters, as always, with questions raised and answered in director Olatunde Osunsanmi’s behind-the-scenes diary, an interview with season three co-showrunner Michelle Paradise, and even the non-canon TNG novel Dark Mirror.Ken and Bri bring you this wealth of lore in our season finale recap!Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Discovery S2E14: Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2 first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

Kirk would look like in a Discovery uniform — all on this week’s Transporter Lock.Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-discovery-podcast/id1288719563?mt=2&amp;uo=4&amp;at=10lJ4u" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="http://stitcher.com/s?fid=151858&amp;refid=stpr" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Stitcher</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly90cmFuc3BvcnRlcmxvY2suY29tL2ZlZWQvcG9kY2FzdC8" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Google Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/6h6UArYDW3vc56CgWFDlPx" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/affab19b-4fcf-430c-ba26-d895cdcb10ae/Transporter-Lock-A-Star-Trek-podcast" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Amazon Music</a>, <a href="https://overcast.fm/itunes1288719563/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-discovery-podcast" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Overcast</a>, <a href="https://www.pandora.com/podcast/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-podcast/PC:48136" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Pandora</a>, <a href="http://pca.st/transporterlock" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Pocket Casts</a>, <a href="https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-transporter-lock-a-star-tr-74306455/" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">iHeartRadio</a>, <a href="https://tunein.com/radio/Transporter-Lock-p1038203/" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">TuneIn</a>, <a href="https://radiopublic.com/transporter-lock-a-star-trek-dis-G1a73D" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">RadioPublic</a>, or the <a href="https://archive.org/details/transporter-lock" rel="external noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Internet Archive</a>.(The post <a href="https://transporterlock.com/s2e04/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Discovery S2E04: An Obol for Charon</a> first appeared on <a href="https://transporterlock.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast</a>.)

Discovery S2E04: An Obol for Charon

It’s three — three — three plots in one! The third episode of the season has Michael and Lady Amanda on the search for Spock; Ensign Tilly is tripping on mushrooms; and L’Rell and Ash Tyler’s rule of the Klingon Empire is threatened. What did Burnham do to hurt Spock so badly? What tropes are the writers borrowing from Days of Our Lives? And was all this thrown together just to set up a Section 31 spin-off? We raise these burning questions and more before taking a side trek to Carpool Karaoke — all on this week’s Transporter Lock!

What would Star Trek look like if it were a comedy series? We don’t need to wait for the debut of Lower Decks, as the Short Treks episode “The Trouble with Edward” features both tribbles and the comedic talents of H.

Picard S1E04: Absolute Candor

Dr. Burnham is alive! The possibility of having back a lost parent struck Ken, making this a difficult episode for not just Michael. But can Georgiou stand the competition for Michael’s affection?

Discovery S2E09: Project Daedalus

For the first time in 45 years, Star Trek ventures into the frontier of animation! “Ephraim and Dot” is a comedic documentary about a tardigrade’s reproductive cycle, and “The Girl Who Made the Stars” is a tale of conquering one’s fear of the unknown. Ken and Bri review these two animated Short Treks, their place in Star Trek canon, and the promise they hold for future Star Trek series.Finally, we look back at the cast and crew we lost in 2019: D.C. Fontana, Robert Walker, Michael Lamper, Aron Eisenberg, and René Auberjonois. We encourage all listeners who are able to make a donation to Doctors Without Borders in René’s memory.Rene Auberjonois—Odo from DS9—has passed away. When he autographed a photo for me, he asked if I would make a donation to Doctors Without Borders in return. I did.Let's all make a donation to @MSF_USA in Rene's memory. https://t.co/3wBQyC7ShL #RIPReneAuberjonois #StarTrek— Ken Gagne (@gamebits) December 9, 2019Stream the audio edition of Transporter Lock above or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pandora, Pocket Casts, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, RadioPublic, or the Internet Archive.(The post Short Treks: Ephraim and Dot &amp; The Girl Who Made the Stars first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

Patrick Stewart returns as Jean-Luc Picard in “Remembrance”, the pilot episode of Star Trek: Picard.
