In a solo episode, co-host Jack Lugo weighs in on the much anticipated world premiere of 'Star Trek: Discovery.' CBS has decided to use the show to launch its subscription-based media streaming platform CBS-All Access. Sonequa Martin-Green stars as the series lead Commander Michael Burnham, a human Starfleet officer raised on Vulcan by Sarek (Spock’s father). A violent encounter with a Klingon forces Burnham to take extraordinary measures to try to protect her ship and the Starfleet captain who has served as her mentor for seven years.
Jack gives his thoughts on the series debut as well as whether or not CBS’s choice of roll out method for this show worked. Is the show good enough to entice Star Trek fans to sign up for yet another streaming service platform or are CBS’s expectations illogical? Find out in this special mini-episode of The Pop Culture Juke Joint Podcast.
