The latest episode of Star Trek: Discovery, “Lethe,” is the show's best so far. From "soul grafts" to vaporizing Klingon heads, this episode has EVERYTHING -- including a nod to Star Trek VI and the Enterprise. And we have a nice little surprise for you after our recap -- an interview with Sarek himself, James Frain.



We also check out what's new in the Reader Mailbag and we have our first self-inflicted Red Shirt-ing this week. So grab some of Lorca's fortune cookies, turn your WINAMPS up to 11 and listen to the newest episode of TR3 now!

Episode 115: Star Trek: Discovery Has Folks Turned All Inside Out

…Especially the crew of a certain starship! Get it? Get it…?

O.K., not just those poor bastards from this week’s episode, but the many fans who are still trying to get their heads around this very new, very different Trek are also turned inside out. And we get. We get it. But we might also be starting to really get into Discovery…

In this week’s TR3, we break down the third episode of the show, “Context Is for Kings,” and guess what? Phil is starting to come around on the series! Listen in for our spoilery review of the episode, what we think of the new crew and ship -- since, yes, we finally get some Discovery in Discovery this week -- and how we think Michael Burnham is progressing as a character.



Plus, we dive into some reader mail. And of course, we have a new Red Shirt to analyze… as well as the mystery of her death. Hmm…

Episode 113: Star Trek: Discovery Lives!

It’s finally here -- Star Trek’s return to TV. Scott and Phil dive deep into the series premiere of Star Trek: Discovery as only they can, with a review full of high praise, nerdy complaints, cheap shots, and more…

That’s right -- we talk full spoilers about the first two episodes of Discovery, “The Vulcan Hello” and “Battle at the Binary Stars.” Yes, this is a Star Trek show that managed to not show its titular ship at all in its first two hours… are we O.K. with that?



We also delve into our thoughts on the new characters First Officer Michael Burnham, Captain Georgiou, and Lt. Saru, what the deal is with these crazy-looking new Klingons, why it’s maybe O.K. that the tech and costumes look so different from what was established in “The Cage,” and much more.

And Scott regales us with tales from the Discovery premiere party in Hollywood where he hobnobbed with Jonathan Frakes, two Daxes, a Nog, and many other Trek luminaries. Name dropper! Plus, of course, we cart out another Red Shirt… right out the airlock, that is!
