One Two Eight: Space Battles and Digressions

One Two Eight: Space Battles and Digressions     

Recorded February 16th, 2020

If you know the Brothers Geek, you know we tell the truth, and this week is no different.  We discuss the latest episode of Star Trek: Picard, in which we meet a sect of Romulan warrior nuns who also only tell the truth. And if that isn’t enough, they are also the best hand to hand fighters in the galaxy.  The Brothers briefly digress from our One-Shot topic to discuss the new Batman camera test posted online, so it’s allowed.

Week three of our Star Trek: Picard One Shots.  We meet new friends and reconnect with old ones.  The mystery deepens, the Motley Crew is assembled and there is a fight scene!  We discuss expectations vs reality, we delve deeply into what Starfleet as a metaphor for humanity really means of us, and we hear Jean Luc Picard give the order to “Engage”.  It feels oh so good.

Trivia is Borg drone themed and Patrick wins the day!

Just as Star Trek Picard kicks off at least 5 plot threads in its most recent episode, our weekly One Shot feels a bit tangential as well.  Rather than simply recapping each episode of the series, we endeavor to explore themes, favorite moments, and give context to what we are watching together.  Watch and listen along with us. Episode 2 of Season 1 of Picard strikes the match on multiple fuses.  Will they all lead to the same explosive device?  Let’s find out.
Trivia this week is United Federation of Planets themed.  The boys get ultra close.
