Binary System Podcast #442 - Star Trek: Lower Decks, Beastars, and Bojack Horseman

This episode originally broadcast on January 23, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/01/binary-system-podcast-442-star-trek-lower-decks-beastars-and-bojack-horseman/ Second verse, same as the first: we’re back this week to talk about Star Trek: Lower Decks (the Star Trek future is the best future: good hearted and occasionally sexy!) and Beastars (okay but WHY did Louis say he was a virgin, does having sex with Haru not count? Did they actually HAVE sex?), and fangirling about the 1980s cartoon Mighty Orbots (yes it’s often silly but we love it and despite the shortcuts the animation is surprisingly good) We finish up with Elizabeth’s rewatch of Bojack Horseman, and the downright scary similarity between his public “apology” and Neil Gaiman’s response to the allegations against him. I mean, the episode is five years old and it’s like Neil was taking notes… Keep an eye out here for Kathryn’s upcoming crossover with the Mid-Life Crisis Task Force! This week’s outro is an oldie but a goodie, a clip from Calm the Fuck Down by Broke For Free. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?
