A Discovery Home Companion is an unfiltered look at Star Trek: Discovery, a new  Star Trek for a new era of television, set in an older era before Kirk and Spock.  Will it be great, or will it be disappointing? Three close friends will approach the show with open hearts and critical minds. Oh, and it turns out we'll end up yelling at each other sometimes.

Check out our ongoing exploration of another Star Trek and “Prequel to the Golden Age of Television,” Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, in our other podcast, The Rules of Acquisition

New Eden Ignorance (Star Trek: Discovery S2E02)

Jan 29, 2019

"New Eden" brings a classic Star Trek episode, with tropes even non-Trekkers can identify as such.  But aside from the away mission on the planet, can someone who hasn't watched the Discovery make any sense out of the heavy space rock, spore drives, or Tilly's secret friend back on the ship?

Wade is again joined by Glen Hall and Sean Perrotta, two Star Trek neophytes, but also by Benny Scheckner (https://www.instagram.com/chickenbonesontheground/), who has even LESS frame of reference for this episode.
