When Sarah and Allie are depressed and not excited about decorating for Christmas, the Ghost of Christmas Past yoinks them back to the past – 1881 in Tombstone, Arizona, to be exact. Will this stupid episode of Star Trek reignite their Christmas spirit? Not likely.
When Dr. Pulaski returns, 1960’s beauty standards come under fire.
Sarah & Allie do it LIVE @ GalactiCon 2023! Despite our time being bumped up 30 minutes at the 11th hour and nobody letting us know, we had the best turnout of the day and, in our humble opinion, put on a great FIRST EVER Humanist Trek Live Show!
Sadly the video camera died 3 minutes into the panel, so enjoy the audio from our panel “Humanism in Star Trek” LIVE @ GalactiCon
When a bunch of Children of the Corn on a scientific outpost cause their parents to Jim Jones themselves, they call to the guardians of the watchtowers of the East and release “he who walks behind the rows” back into the galaxy.
Star Trek continues to be relevant as ever as we question whether innocent followers who don’t know any better are just as liable as the evil people pulling the strings? People who aren’t taught critical thinking and scientific skepticism are very susceptible to “fake news” and “stolen elections” and “vaccine disinformation”? SAY IT AIN’T SO!
When Kirk suffers from amnesia, will the big Manhattan musical go on? How many awful “native American” tropes can one 1960’s TV series cram into one episode? Is the transporter a killing machine? Which Star Trek hypothesis about life on other worlds is most scientifically likely? Find out this week on Humanist Trek!
When the Enterprise crosses into the Romulan DMZ, Spock fingers a Romulan Commander while Kirk steals a cloaking device (treaty be damned). Is it “OK” to do things during war that would otherwise violate your values? Why does this episode seem to say “yes”? Just what does a Vulcan penis look like, anyway?
When Spock’s brain is stolen by dopey aliens, Kirk, Bones, and Scotty take RC Spock on Star Trek: The Search for Spock’s Brain – Weekend at Bernie’s style. Brain and brain! What is brain?! You’re not high enough for this episode.
How much do we even remember from Season 2? And what do we have to look forward to next season?
