Podcast # 471 – “Galaxy’s Child” – 1401.12

This week I’m back with one of our classic style podcasts.  I cover the 4th season TNG episode called “Galaxy’s Child.”  This is a fun one and kind of a follow up episode to “Booby Trap.”  First, I chat a little about the crazy weather of the last week or so here and in much of the country.  Then I cover what new stuff I’ve been watching on TV and at the movies.  We have lots of genre stuff to see these days with some new series starting and old ones coming back for new seasons.  Plenty out there to enjoy for all.  We have another cool music moment segment by Vartok covering some “Life of Pi” film music (thanks Vartok).  Then I move on to the Trek episode for the week.

The episode “Galaxy’s Child” has two stories going on.  The main story is when the real Dr. Leah Brahms comes aboard the Enterprise and Geordi gets to meet his former holodeck girl.  The other story involves a space faring creature that the ships comes across and has to help it’s newborn baby after the mother dies in an accident.  This is really a solid episode and fun to see again.  I do love it when Geordi tries to get the girl and the whole story works well together as both Dr. Brahms and Geordi have to work together to solve the crisis going on around them.  Really great stuff and Rick Moyer shares his thoughts and also a brand new rocking song for us too!  Thanks much Rick for that.  Find more of his parody stuff (including this new one) HERE.

Great to be back in the saddle with a classic show this week.  I play a promo for a new podcast called “The Rusted Robot” that you can find HERE.  Next week guest host Mark will be here covering the classic Sci-Fi film, “Destination Moon.”  Until next time, take care and enjoy your week ahead.
