Treks Classic: S2E1 "The Child" (w/ Mary Holland)

77 min • 13 juli 2020

Look, sometimes internets don't work and you have to upload a classic episode.

Enjoy: Mary Holland (Wild Horses, Veep, Blunt Talk) with Alice and Veronica, talking S2E1 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "The Child," in which Troi goes into labor with an alien child and it's... orgasmic??? This cues a deep dive into the way overused sci-fi/fantasy trope of the "mystical pregnancy" and an exploration of its misogynistic connotations.
