Second Contact: Tip Of The Iceborg!

About this episode

The hosts discuss their thoughts on the Star Trek: Enterprise episode 'Regeneration' and address listener questions.

This week, we’re on a second contact mission, revisiting Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 23 “Regeneration,” now that Maria and Jamie have watched it. We all generally liked this borg episode but just couldn’t turn off the portion of our brain that wouldn’t stop whispering the word “continuity.” We discuss the Truck Nutz pin that the infected alien is wearing. And in our Read Alerts section, we discuss our feelings about Scott Bakula in response to a listener question and talk about a cool drawing of Starfleet Academy that listener Bill sent us. A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “Tip of the Iceborg!,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week, and you also don’t want to miss our discussion with Phil Plait in that episode! We now have merch! Show your love for EnterpriseSplaining and the cutest beagle ever with a Porthos Appreciation Society shirt! EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network . The show is produced by K.O.
