#97–‘I, Excretus’Lower Decks S2E08 - a podcast by The Its Got Star Trek Podcast

The Upper- and Lower-Deckers switch roles and in the process learn that the true enemy of efficiency is a meddlesome organizational consultant. Join your holopod-dwelling hosts as they discuss the use of callbacks for both humor and metacritiques of classic Star Trek tropes, how Mariner and Captain Freeman are alike while retaining differences based on career level and experience, and the magnificent audacity of Boimler's athletic spread.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Star Trek: Lower Decks with episode 9!

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.
