Lieutenant Commander Kirk learns a few life lessons while saving the day. Join your ravenous hosts as they discuss delicious character development, beautiful (if occasionally unjustified) visuals, and an unfortunate twist that luckily doesn't completely mar an otherwise excellent episode of Star Trek. Also, Patrick made it a point to avoid taking too long to get to the discussion of the episode, so as you might expect we didn't start talking about Sehlats or tails until the second break. Still, the first break is pretty damned amazing, so skip it at the peril of your unsatiated pleasure centers!

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with "What Is Starfleet?"

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.
