Description

The unofficial, irreverent and filthy aftershow for all the new Star Trek television: Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, Short Treks, Prodigy, Strange New Worlds, and anything else they throw at us. Each Friday after a new episode of Star Trek, Adam and Ben recap, review and roast all the New Trek. Check out our other show, The Greatest Generation, a Star Trek podcast by a couple of guys who are a little bit embarrassed to have a Star Trek podcast!

I actually had to check the actors to know it was the same actor voicing Rom bc his voice sounded so different. I guess combo of time and not having those teeth jammed into his mouth

regarding the topic of how disabled people feel about Pike considering his future condition the same as death, threat will vary person to person, but as a disabled person with a progressive illness, I feel how much pain he's in is a big factor. I expect there will reach a point where my pain becomes too much to endure and I'll probably stop all treatments and allow a faster end. But neither the TOS episode nor the reboot made it clear whether he survived a terribly painful event that left him paralyzed but without lingering pain, or if he's in pain all the time. If the latter, his opinion would be more understandable. If the former, the should still be many ways for him to participate in life, even if they're pretending Stephen Hawking didn't already invent a better assistive speech device than the beepy chair.
