Saddle Up! A Star Trek Strange New Worlds Podcast

De: TFM
  • Resumen

  • For the first captain to be filmed leading the USS Enterprise, Christopher Pike has gotten precious little screen time over the years. That's about to change. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds will bring us the stories of the Enterprise under Pike's command, together with Number One, Spock, and a host of familiar faces. Saddle Up! explores the characters and stories that Strange New Worlds brings us each week as we celebrate Star Trek and try to have a little fun along the way.

    “Hegemony”

    A Gorn attack on the Federation colony on Parnassus Beta threatens to turn mounting tensions into a full-blown war. When Captain Pike’s partner, Captain Batel, gets caught in the attack, he defies Admiral April’s orders and mounts a rescue mission. With Chapel also missing, Spock is happy to help, but to do so will require suiting up and flying through space.

    With the help of another familiar face, Pike and Spock return to the Enterprise with their lovers, but others—not all wearing red shirts—aren’t so lucky. With part of his crew abducted in cold blood, what will Pike do? A big lizard now truly is in the Federation’s backyard as the second season of Strange New Worlds wraps up with a dramatic finish manufactured just for the occasion.

    In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds Season 2 with the season finale, “Hegemony.” We discuss the challenges of creating drama in a prequel, elements of diplomacy in Star Trek, parallels (and not) with “Arena,” and try to make sense of the Gorn.

    “Subspace Rhapsody”

    The discovery of a naturally occurring subspace field leads Spock to speculate that the speed of communications could be tripled. And he was sort of right, at least on a personal level, when his quantum probability field experiment goes wrong and the crew breaks out into song. Again and again. As the improbability field expands, people on other ships also begin singing. And if the Enterprise crew cannot pull off a grand finale, the phenomenon could spread across the entire subspace communications network.

    In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds Season 2 with “Subspace Rhapsody.” We discuss the concept, how they pulled it off, using the musical format to boost communications, advance storylines and clear the deck for the finale, and more.

    “Under the Cloak of War”

    For Doctor M’Benga and nurse Christine Chapel, the horrors of war come rushing back when Dak’Rah, a former Klingon general who defected to the Federation, comes aboard the Enterprise. Now an ambassador for the Federation, trying to bridge the two sides in the aftermath of the 2256–57 war, Dak’Rah came to be known as the Butcher of J’Gal for his brutal tactics. But for M’Benga, the actions that earned Rah that moniker hit closer to home than anyone knew. And the end game plays out in the Enterprise’s sickbay.

    In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds Season 2 with “Under the Cloak of War.” We discuss the impact of war, atonement, responsibility for one’s actions, the DS9 feel of the episode, and more.

Two totally different soeakers

I have had a hard time being engaged and listening to mutiple episodes. The content is good I just have an issue with one of the presenters. One speaker is easily listened to - clear and able to be heard and coherent thoughts. The other is about half the volume of the first which makes it hard to hear - but also speaks e x t r e m e l y slow. Almost like he is making it up as he goes. Think a bit before you start recording and speak at a normal cadence instead of all these stops and pauses. If there is a physical or mental reason - my apologies. But your delivery has just made it hard to listen - for me. Splid content though. Almost wish I could read a transcript.
