Always Practice Safe Docking!

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1, Episode 22: “Vox Sola” but only Bill has actually watched the episode. Plus, we have special guest K.O. Myers from Particulate Media joining us this episode. The Enterprise has been penetrated by a very slimy tentacled creature who has captured Archer, Trip, a random ensign, and Angelica Schuyler in its sticky slime. The slime creature will slowly devour them all if they aren’t freed soon, but that’s not even the worst part; their minds are all now psychically linked and Archer’s brain is constantly thinking about nothing but water polo. T’Pol and Hoshi better find a way to free them soon before they all have to hear a full play-by-play of the 2134 water polo regionals piped directly into their brain!

Guest: K.O. Myers from Particulate Media. You can also follow him on BlueSky as @genvexed or @particulatemedia

About the Podcast

Enterprisesplaining
EnterpriseSplaining - The podcast where we try to explain Star Trek: Enterprise to each other! We are bewildered by this show. We have questions - so many questions! Join Jamie, Bill, and Maria as they attempt to make sense of this 22-year-old show that represents one of the strangest chapters of Star Trek history.

Haven’t watched or don’t want to watch the show? No problem! At EnterpriseSplaining, we’ll do that work for you! Every week, one of us will watch an episode and explain it to the others - or try to. No Star Trek knowledge is necessary, although it might help? Who knows. This show is weird. Listen along as we try to uncover exactly what this show was trying to accomplish and what it ended up doing. Will this podcast be useful? Probably not! Will it change the world? UNLIKELY! Will they solve all of humanity’s problems through this exercise? ALMOST DEFINITELY NO. But we’ll have fun doing it and that’s really the point.
