#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. 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 take a brief break from our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Lower Decks' fifth and final season due to host travel, but will provide you all with a bonus episode in which Dan will play sound clips and Jesse and Patrick will try to guess the character, series, and episode! We'll then cover both "Upper Decks" and "Fissure Quest" the following week (December 16). 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.
