Star Trek Minute

In which floating heads rise from the fog, a space whale drifts by, a mannequin burns up on re-entry, and we desperately try to make sense of one of the weirdest minutes in Star Trek...

In which we discuss why slingshotting around the sun makes them go back in time, nobody asking Uhuru if she is okay, scary giant dream heads and we both gush over how cool the white bridge scene is…

In which we discuss what “fortune favors the foolish” means, Shatner missing his cue, Dave does his best speaking in Latin, Chris’ love of Sulu calling out warp speed, and Kirk’s goofy face and whether or not he is into going back in time…

In which control panels are mopped off, unsupported windows dramatically blow out, and Spock shows off how much he can recall from memory...

In which McCoy sums up the movie plot, the roof leaks at Starfleet HQ, Kirks transmits his plans, and we discuss some of the origins of the The Voyage Home story...

In which chaos reigns at Starfleet HQ, Kirk gives Scotty some vague details, and McCoy reminds us that time travel does work...

In which Kirk recommends destroying the Probe, Spock recommends findings some humpback whales, McCoy recommends waiting a damn minute, and we discuss the sequel novel, "Probe"...

In which Spock's hunch is correct, McCoy thinks it's all crazy, and Kirk instantly goes into problem solving mode...

In which Uhura runs an underwater simulation of the Traveler's signal, Spock guesses what it is in seconds, and Dave drops some truth bombs...

In which we discuss lazy writing, Spock making a lot of assumptions, inspiration from Douglas Adams and So Long and Thanks for All the Fish, we continue to make script changes and we once again thank all our patrons…
