87. Boimler‘s Everything

Anika and Liz catch up on New York Comic-Con and the second half of Lower Decks season 2. Which … we loved! 

We talk about: 

• Anika's NYCC experience
• A new Discovery trailer! Gosh, people have awfully strong opinions about the Ferengi make-up…
• Serenading the cast
• Liz loves the Federation president and has pre-forgiven her for any war crimes she might do.
• Prodigy's goal is to welcome new people to Star Trek without making them watch hundreds of hours of TV and movies, and we are HERE for it.
• We wound up LOVING the rest of Lower Decks season 2
• ...except the Pakleds
• We love Boimler now? Like, a lot? 
• Liz's confession: "I'm a Doopler."
• We loved "I, Excretus" so much that Anika can't talk about it without laughing!
• We want Captain Freeman to command the Enterprise
• Anika fangirls Dawnn Lewis

It's the episode where Liz has so many last-minute thoughts that this is basically the end of Return of the King, in Star Trek podcast form
