180. A Flower Crown Cult (Prodigy 2.08)

Anika and Liz don their finest flower crowns and make an appearance at a feast. What's that? You want us to go for a nice run? No thank you, we will stay comfortably seated, talking about the Star Trek: Prodigy episode "Is There In Beauty No Truth"...
- Star Trek bringing the anti-running agenda for 2024
- Maybe these non-corporeal adrenaline junkies should look into rollercoasters
- It's a really nice bit of worldbuilding that telepaths are bad at consent and boundaries, but accidentally gives rise to a subtext which feels transphobic
- Which is not to say that this is not a wonderful episode or a great allegory about both the trans experience and disability!
- But it's complicated! We talk about it at length!
- ALSO this Feast of Senses would have been so much creepier if Gene Roddenberry or Rick Berman were around
- Jankom Pog dances like a Bluey character
- Dal and Gwyn and relationships that exist in small moments
