Y. M. Nelson and Nerdy Romantics guests Staci and Jen discuss all the Trek goodness of Star Trek: Picard, season 2. We get pretty nerdy talking about not just Picard, but Star Trek The Original Series, the Next Generation, Voyager, Deep Space Nine, Strange New Worlds, and other franchise installments, and we touch on Prodigy and Lower Decks.
SPOILER ALERT: We will spoil some things in Season 2. So, if you haven’t seen Season 2 and you don’t want to be spoiled, wait to play the episode below or on your podcast provider.
