Review of Parth Ferengi’s Heart Place

Join Aaron and Steve as they review Lower Decks season 4 episode "Parth Ferengi’s Heart Place" They discuss Ferengi network television, the 'will they won't they' relationship of Rutherford and Tendi and lament never having gone to Star Trek: The Experience.

Ferengi Rule of Acquisition #8 - Small print leads to large risk! A good rule to remember be you Frerengi or human!

*by reading this description you have hereby authorized the transfer of 7 bars of gold pressed latinum to Trek Geeks and TexTrek. Please note there will be a 5 slip fee for processing.

The near end of summer also means that Strange New Worlds Season 2 has come to an end - with Season 3 airing in... 2025? We discuss this and other news items - which honestly isn't a lot considering the SAG/AFTRA strike. In fact, after Lower Decks Season 4 and Discovery Season 5, there might not be much new Trek for a while - how will we survive!?

But that is a tomorrow problem! In today's episode, we're here to talk about the last two episodes for SNW S2, the musical episode "Subspace Rhapsody" and the finale "Hegemony." Mike and Johnson share their thoughts, and definitely become animated in discussing their different views on these two episodes. Do we want more musicals? Do we want more Gorn?! Listen and find out!
