Trek Politics is a fun and insightful deep dive into the socio-political and cultural allegory of Star Trek across all series and movies, featuring author and commentator Mary Trump and political podcaster Bob Cesca.
Mary and Bob review the original series Season 3 episode "Day of the Dove" in which a malevolent entity (that resembles an ocular migraine) feeds off negative energy, forcing the crew of the Enterprise and the Klingons to brink of war. What does this episode tell us about social media algorithms that incite outrage, and a president who thrives on chaos? Stick around for some weird odds and ends from the episode.
