Mariner and Boimler find inspiration in themselves while Tendi and Rutherford navigate potentially life-changing decisions. Join your slightly alternate hosts as they discuss the glorious (if bittersweet) return of Star Trek: Lower Decks for its fifth and final season, the series' continued mastery of combining humor with emotionally-resonant and intellectually-stimulating story lines, and the awesome cry of the noble blazzard. Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware! Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Lower Decks' fifth and final season with our discussion about 'The Best Exotic Nanite Hotel' 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.
