Warren returns to the fold this week, to examine both various dribs and drabs of Doctor Who news and to debate amongst the Three Who Rule as to the worth of the new Star Trek: Discovery series. What would a podcast between three nerds be without spurious Trek talk, you ask? Well, it would be a podcast with pop culture reporter Edie Nugent taking a look at Series 10’s space-set not-zombie nail-biter, “Oxygen,” in our Second Chances series!
Warren, did you see Star Wars, The Force Awakens or Rogue One? They looked more like the original trilogy than the prequels did. I still maintain that STD could’ve made more effort with the original series look, unless as rumoured this turns out to be set in the Mirror Universe
On Steven’s issue with the scientists blowing themselves up: they believe they’re “saving the world”, as the lead scientist says, because they know that whatever else they do will just give the enemy more data with which to attack the real world. That’s the existentialist horror of this simulated world, and the only thing you can do to fight back is to die faster.

Is there anywhere you can find the Canadian airing numbers for Star Trek Discovery?
Other than the Orville seems to be doing far better it is hard to figure out how Discovery is doing.
