The 42cast Episode 246: Gorn to be Wild

Strange New Worlds Season Two

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds continues to gain prominence among fandom. Telling stories about the crew of the Enterprise in the days when Pike was captain, the series evokes a retro feel while boasting modern effects. In this episode we provide the first half of our discussion of season two of the series. We discuss new characters like Pelia and what we think about her. We talk about the prevalence of Kirk in the series and whether or not we enjoy the many connections they make to other piece of Star Trek lore. Along the way we get into favorite characters, how we feel about time travel storylines, and Vulcan shenanigans.

This week’s five-minute controversy asks how often we each think of the Roman Empire.

This week Stephanie is cohost and James and Keith join the cast.
