Summary
Anika and Liz had such strong feelings about episode 7 of season 2 of Star Trek: Picard, Monster, that they organised a quick out-of-schedule catch-up to rant. Accordingly, this episode (and its show notes!) contains much fresher spoilers than usual. We discuss: Our concerns about the Yvette Picard plotline came true, with a fun domestic violence fake-out twist! Multiple ableist tropes: the tortured artist whose creativity depends on their mental illness; the "having a mentally ill parent is SO traumatic" story Imagine being a bipolar Trekkie right now Brief mention of suicide from 8:14 to 8:26 This is not AS egregious, but they got Freud all over our Picard/Crusher
