All Access: ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ 106 Review Of “Kobayashi” And Interview With Writer Aaron J. Waltke
[Discovery talk starts at 07:48 / Prodigy review starts at 10:47] Tony and Laurie start with the news that Star Trek: Picard season 3 shut down this week when 50 people on the production team tested positive for Covid. They talk about how that might affect the production schedule for season 2 of Strange New Worlds, then discuss more Picard tidbits from Jonathan Frakes’ latest round of interviews. After a quick recap of Star Trek: Discovery‘s trailer for the second half of season 4, they review the brand-new Star Trek: Prodigy episode “Kobayashi,” which they both unabashedly loved. Ani and David (Tony’s niece and nephew) give their Prodigy review, and Tony plays clips from his interview with the show’s writer/producer Aaron J. Waltke. They wrap up the podcast with a little audio from the Cameo that Blu del Barrio bought from Anthony Rapp as a Christmas present—for themself!—and a Deep Space Nine Q&A Twitter thread from Robert Hewitt Wolfe.
