My friends, the great experiment.

Strange new world.

Hidding.

Trenk.

Would you look at that?

The greatest Trenk.

You're all astronauts.

Some kind of Star Trek.

The greatest Trek.

Welcome to Greatest Trek. It's a new Star Trek podcast from the makers of the greatest generation. I'm Ben Harrison. I'm Adam Pranika. This one was a lot to unpack, Ben. It was like a college course on evil and grief and the impermanence of things.

And given this was like the last episode of the season,

I wondered if you wouldn't just want to get right into unpacking all of this.

Like one of the densest episodes of Star Trek,

I feel like I've seen it a long, long time.

To me, it felt like a two-parter.

I started watching it and an old buddy from New York

called me up and I hadn't talked to him in like a year and I was like, oh shit, I got to talk to

this guy. And so I paused it. And we talked for like an hour and a half on the phone. And then I

sat back down and I was like, oh shit, there's like there's so much episodes left I feel

like I already watched an episode you paused the episode your buddy called and then like

m83 started playing on the stereo and you're like everything just kind of clicked into place

emotionally yeah yeah so I. So I'm down.
