Listen "Dak'Rah Part Deux"
Episode Synopsis
“Shuttle to Kenfori”With Captain Batel facing the possibility of becoming an extra in the 1980s miniseries V, Doctor M’Benga and Spock hatch a plan (no pun intended) to save her by using a rare chimera blossom to combine the residual Gorn DNA in her body with her human DNA. The catch? That very special episode of Blossom only airs in one place, a planet once disputed by the Federation and Klingons. Captain Pike, wanting to play a role in saving his girlfriend, kicks Spock off the mission and assigns himself to accompany M’Benga. When they arrive on Kenfori, they find themselves in an episode of The Walking Dead. But escaping the zombies won’t be as easy as they think, thanks to the arrival of Bytha, daughter of Klingon ambassador/mass murderer Dak'Rah, who is determined to exact vengeance on M’Benga.In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “Shuttle to Kenfori.” We discuss the continuation of M'Benga's story, future paths for Batel, designing TOS-inspired Klingons, insubordination, and a few creative ideas we maybe should keep to ourselves.ChaptersIntro (0:00:00)An "Under the Cloak of War" Sequel (00:04:25)The Walking Dead (00:08:59)No Signs of Life (00:14:36)Crafting Klingons (00:21:09)Gorn to Be with You (00:28:10)Insubordinate Ortegas (00:36:02)Trek As a YA Novel (00:41:33)Final Thoughts and Ratings (00:48:03)Closing (00:57:21)HostsC Bryan Jones and Matthew RushingProductionC Bryan Jones (Editor and Producer) Matthew Rushing (Executive Producer)
