292. Star Trek: Voyager - 'Living Witness' Review
About this episode
This episode reviews 'Living Witness' from Star Trek: Voyager, exploring its themes of revisionist history and featuring a discussion on a new trailer and a Red Shirt eulogy.
Revisionist history and the dangers of it take center stage in this week’s review of “Living Witness,” an exceptional Star Trek: Voyager episode which finds the Doctor’s backup hologram awakening in a distant future where Voyager is a warship responsible for some truly dastardly things. “Living Witness” is the closest fans got to a Mirror Universe-y take on Voyager, with Janeway rocking some evil gloves and the Doctor melting some poor alien’s optic nerves. So come for the deep dive into this episode’s origins, and stay for our reaction to that killer twist ending! We also breakdown Strange New World's new dragon-and-dinosaur-filled trailer before beaming down to the Replimat for some Spielberg, followed by another Red Shirt eulogy. So watch out for a creepy-eyed evil Doctor and listen now!
