Episode #23 – Pickle Rat Morty

In this episode we talk about the rumored Star Trek series by Nicholas Meyer, the “post an unpopular opinion” meme, the creators of Rick & Morty receiving a jug of McDonald’s Szechuan Sauce, and we trail off into a conversation about Daym Drops and spicy food. But we spend most of this episode trying to think of the name of a lesser known Gene Roddenberry series. (It was Earth: Final Conflict, by the way.)

Topics:

  • The rumor of the Nicholas Meyer “Khan series” and how it may (or may) not fit in with Star Trek: Discovery.
  • Chris confuses Earth 2 with Earth: Final Conflict (which was the Roddenberry joint).
  • Alex’s kid is going into high school.
  • Chris goes for an obscure joke from a lesser-known Mel Brooks movie and seems to be proud of it.
  • Stuff we made up: Tiny Trek Adventures, Star Trek Babies, Tiny Spock!
  • The “Post An Unpopular Opinion” meme. (See link below to a Radio Times article about Peter Davison’s comments regarding the casting of Jodie Whittaker as the 13th Doctor.)
  • Chris feels marginalized and Alex says “Spider-Man 3” is the worst Spider-Man movie ever made. (We’re not sure this qualifies as an “unpopular” opinion.)
  • Adventures on Instagram.
  • Alex saw “Pickle Rat Morty”. Rick & Morty episode causes Mad Max nostalgia. McDonalds sends Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland a jug of Szechuan Sauce.
  • Daym Drops, Angry Whoppers, and Nashville hot fried chicken at Hattie B’s
