We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 3 “Minefield,” but only Bill has actually watched the episode. Hey everyone it’s a Malcolm-focused episode which means the writers are shaking the Etch-A-Sketch and giving us another new take on the character. It all starts with an awkward breakfast and then HOLY CRAP things are blowing up. Can Malcolm and Archer navigate both a physical minefield and their emotional minefield as Malcolm finally confesses… ah just kidding. Anyway, Romulans.Rikermendations:Maria: The Wild Robot (movie) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29623480/ Jamie: Conclave (movie) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20215234/ Bill: Horimiya (anime and manga) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13103134/EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network. Sound assistance by K.O.

Surprise! We are changing our format around a little for season 2 and now, you’re going to see us in your feed weekly! Instead of reviewing the previous episode and going into the next one all in one episode, we are undertaking new Second Contact missions! Every other week, we’ll look at the episode we watched the week before, after everyone has watched it so you can get all our thoughts about this episode just a week after the explainer.So welcome to Second Contact, where we revisit the Star Trek: Enterprise episode Carbon Creek. A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “The Facts of Warp,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week. Jamie and Bill have finally watched the episode and it’s time to hear what they thought! EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network. Sound assistance by K.O.

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 2 “Carbon Creek,” but only Maria has actually watched the episode. T’Pol tells Trip and Archer that they might not have their historical facts straight. This episode is widely considered one of the best Enterprise episodes, and we think we might agree. Does it have to do with the fact that none of the lead characters from Enterprise play any part in the story? You decide! We are joined by special guest, Bryan from the Trek, Marry, Kill podcast!

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 1 “Shockwave Part II,” but only Jamie has actually watched the episode. The Suliban have taken over the Enterprise, Captain Archer is stuck in the future, and Starfleet is considering canceling the entire deep space program. The only way to save it is for Archer to give a rousing speech over a Teams call about that time he saw a gazelle give birth in Africa, but will it be enough? Rikermendations:Maria: Elsbeth (tv show)Jamie: Roots of Pacha (video game)Bill: Tis Time for Torture Princess (anime and manga)EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network. Sound assistance by K.O.

We have reached the end of Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1! Jamie, Bill, and Maria are joined by Sue from the Women at Warp podcast to take a step back and talk about what it’s been like gettin’ from there to here. Who do we like? Who do we hate? What is this show even about? Why are we still watching it? How did we get through a full season? At what point will they replace Malcolm with Porthos and how much better will the show get when that happens?Guest: Sue from the Women at Warp podcastFeature images courtesy of the Star Trek Image MakerEnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network.

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1, Episode 26 “Shockwave Part 1,” but only Bill has actually watched the episode. Fam, it’s been a long road, but we’ve finally made it to the season one finale! Things go from bad to worse as the Enterprise crew accidentally commits genocide before a time wizard shows up to solve all their problems and are they even grateful? Hahahahahahahaha… no. It all ends in a cliffhanger where Archer is stranded in a horrific future and Enterprise is about to be destroyed in what frankly feels like some karmic payoff, but it’s all… to be continued!Mentions: How Does Beyoncé’s ‘Alien Superstar’ Have 24 Writers?

The Enterprise crew finally makes it to Risa, where heteronormativity abounds. It’s two days and two nights of scams, injuries, sexy language lessons, and some incredibly wild outfits and wigs.Photo Reference #1: In the ShuttlePhoto Reference #2: In the ClubRikermendations:Maria: Much Ado About Nothing (1993 movie)Bill: The Trip (tv series)Jarrah: Smarty Pants (web series on Dropout)Jamie: Metaphor Refantazio (video game)EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network.

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1, Episode 24: “Desert Crossing” but only Maria has actually watched the episode. The Enterprise responds to a distress call and the captain they rescue is so grateful, he invites Archer and Trip down to his sunny home planet for a visit. Looking forward to a boondoggle, the boys head to the planet where they drink some wine and enjoy some slow-motion space lacrosse before learning that they’re actually maybe in a terrorist camp and things switch from Baywatch to 24 REAL FAST.RikermendationsJamie: Jensen McRae Are you Happy?

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1, Episode 22: “Vox Sola” but only Bill has actually watched the episode. Plus, we have special guest K.O. Myers from Particulate Media joining us this episode. The Enterprise has been penetrated by a very slimy tentacled creature who has captured Archer, Trip, a random ensign, and Angelica Schuyler in its sticky slime. The slime creature will slowly devour them all if they aren’t freed soon, but that’s not even the worst part; their minds are all now psychically linked and Archer’s brain is constantly thinking about nothing but water polo. T’Pol and Hoshi better find a way to free them soon before they all have to hear a full play-by-play of the 2134 water polo regionals piped directly into their brain!Guest: K.O.

We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 1, Episode 21: “Detained” but only Maria has actually watched the episode. Archer and Mayweather blunder into a military zone and get thrown into an internment camp filled with Suliban. This is definitely not a knee-jerk reaction to 9/11 and certainly a nuanced and thoughtful take on a complex situation. Oh wait, no - it’s the opposite of that. But it brings the late, great Dean Stockwell back together with Scott Bakula and we’re pretty excited about that.RikermendationsMaria: Shrinking - Apple TV showBill: Spy X Family animeJamie: My Brilliant Friends - HBO series & novelsEnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network. Sound assistance by K.O.

Ferengi pirates somehow manage to incapacitate every member of the Enterprise aside from a half-naked Trip, who is now tasked with saving the rest of the crew. The bad news is that the Ferengi are peak TNG-era annoying.

It’s been a looooong road, but we’ve somehow made it though half of the first season of Star Trek: Enterprise. I know. We are as surprised as you! For this episode, we are all taking a much needed respite from the show and taking stock of our feelings so far. We also have a special guest joining us, Charles from the Earth Station Trek podcast, who actually knows some things about Star Trek. Yes, that’s right.

Enterprisesplaining is a podcast about Star Trek: Enterprise. Three people who have never seen the show describe the adventures of the first starship Enterprise, and what can only be called the crabbiest crew in Star Trek history. They have the knowledge. They have the perspective. They have the faith of the heart. But, most importantly, they have microphones.
