#268 – ‘Upper Decks’ & ‘Fissure Quest’ Lower Decks S5E08 & 09

We take a break from our regular crew to enjoy a couple of stories about other people. Join your two-pipped hosts as they discuss various definitions of upper deckers, clever utilization of alternate-infused nostalgia, and the rapidly diminishing number of standard time units that remain in this utterly brilliant sci-fi series.

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 conclude our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Lower Decks’ fifth and final season with our discussion of “The New Next Generation”

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.

#267 – ‘Fully Dilated’ Lower Decks S5E07

Mariner, Tendi, and T’Lynn have a heck of a time on a brief away mission. Join your partially-dilated hosts as they discuss brilliantly-remixed sci-fi conventions, picture-perfect character development, and the always present (yet often under-appreciated) risks of decorative shrimp.

#266 – ‘Of Gods and Angles’ Lower Decks S5E06

Mariner mentors while Boimler befuddles. Join your shape-agnostic hosts as they discuss hilarious jokes strapped onto tropey plots, debate the nature and purpose of shapely secretions, and lament the rapidly approaching end to this wonderful addition to the Star Trek franchise. Also, Dan and Patrick have at least one argument over semantics!

#265 – ‘Starbase 80?!’ Lower Decks S5E05

Mariner and Freeman go on parallel journeys of self-discovery. Join your bat-curious hosts as they discuss mother/daughter dualities, myriad opportunities for Lower Decks spinoffs, and the mystery behind Chad’s slippery corn dogs. Also, Dan challenges a well-worn analogy and Jesse briefly falls asleep again (but we bet you won’t notice).

#264 – ‘A Farewell to Farms’ Lower Decks S5E04

Mariner manipulates Ma’ah while Dr. Migleemo tangles with with a couple of tasteless tweeters. Join your increasingly peckish hosts as they discuss expertly-performed layering of serious and silly, an emerging understanding of this seasons over-arching plotline, and the big chunky Easter eggs regarding soups, stews, and chowders. Plus, a number of unrelated diversions!
