Limitless Horizons Ltd.!

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 20 “Horizon,” but only Jamie has actually watched the episode. Joining us this week, we have a special guest, Jen Hathorn from The Wellness Check. This show is finally giving us an actual Travis episode where he has agency and character growth and gets to do more than just get injured off-screen! We get to meet Travis’ family and his childhood friends: baby-faced jacked guy and blond red-polo lady. Also, there is a lot of Frankenstein content for some reason (but not the one with Jacob Elordi's hot monster, unfortunately).

Rikermendations:

  1. Maria: Monument Valley Video Game
  2. Jen: the new Reading Rainbow
  3. Bill: True Stories by David Byrne
  4. Jamie: Frankenstein (1918 book) by Mary Shelley

We now have merch! Show your love for EnterpriseSplaining and the cutest beagle ever with a Porthos Appreciation Society shirt!

EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network.

The show is produced by K.O. Myers at Particulate Media

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.
