from Antimatter Pod · host Anika and Liz
Anika and Liz are petsitting a tardigrade while we discuss the fourth episode of Star Trek: Discovery's first season, "The Butcher's Knife Care's Not For The Lamb's Cry". This episode introduces Admiral Cornwell, and we are gonna be so cool about that. You wouldn't believe how cool and chill we are. This is decidedly not one of Discovery's stronger scripts "Lorca is so clearly flagged as evil," we said back in 2017, "that there absolutely has to be more to it than that." Anyway… Michael's skills and flaws are all on full display here "I also do not respect Saru." Okay, but why is Saru the first officer? He frankly does not seem up to the job. Is Lorca keeping him around as a snack? "Let's talk about Elon Musk." Discovery Stop Killing Off Women Of Colour Challenge Michael and L'Rell: parallels (parall'rells)
