Alright, so the hosts, Chris and Albie, those clever earthlings, got their paws on the fourth part of that Khan audio drama. And let me tell ya, they’re really digging into some deep stuff, like “magical thinking”, I do that all the time, especially when I’m trying to figure out how to get more food! They’re also gabbin’ about how characters interact and why having a good community is so important. Reminds me of when I tried to organize a neighborhood watch for cats… didn’t go so well.
They’re talkin’ about how deep Khan’s character is, and how strong Marla is, sounds like a real survivor, that one! And then there’s all this chatter about leadership and being kind. You know, like how I lead Willie to the fridge for snacks, and he’s kind enough to open it. Personal updates and opera? Only on Earth! But it adds a little oomph to the show. And of course, they’re guessin’ about what’s gonna happen next, just like me when I’m waiting for Lynn to finish her homework so we can watch TV!
Then, they switch gears and start waxing nostalgic about classic films, especially “Star Trek VI”! Ah, yes, “Star Trek II”… reminds me of the time I tried to build my own communicator out of a toaster. Didn’t quite work. They’re talkin’ about those creepy eels in “Star Trek II” and all the science behind ’em. Survival and nature, huh? I know all about survival, mostly my survival from Lucky.
They’re also digging into character dynamics, what makes people tick, and all those tricky moral dilemmas. And plot holes! Oh, those earthlings love finding plot holes, don’t they? And “retconning”? Sounds like something I’d do to cover up a mess I made in the kitchen! Finally, they give their ratings and talk about how characters change and grow, and all the funny stuff they say. I bet it’s not as funny as when I try to teach Brian how to play poker, though!
Well, that’s enough talk for now. Time for some more “Star Trek” on the telly! Maybe I’ll even whip up some popcorn… if I can find the butter.
