540. Star Trek: The Next Futurama 37 - That’s Lobstertainment!
🕑 Added 2022-11-01 13:00:16 +0000 UTC
If you forgot, this show takes a Futurama episode and thematically pairs it with an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, which works surprisingly well.
This episode Michael and David discuss what’s happening on twitter right now, whether or not Kirk would be into talking about cancel culture, and the classic Futurama episode “That’s Lobstertainment!”
This show exclusively releases every other episode here on the Small Beans patreon. Wimmy Wam Wam Wozzle!

It’s amazing sitting here now in the future and seeing how the bare minimal amount of credit Musk had from you in your scathing comments was somehow FAR TOO MUCH CREDIT.

As someone who never used/ will never use Twitter, the intro conversation tickles me, because despite trepidations about the service, pretty much everybody on it is staying on. Also, really wish the question section would pull from somewhere other than Twitter for folks that dislike the service.

comedy adjacent fun fact: Michael Keaton’s given name is Michael Douglas. when he got famous he saw there already was a Michael Douglas so he changed his name to Keaton in honor of Buster Keaton!

Thank you for the insight!

She has 100k followers, so she’s well informed on the subject.

My girlfriend has doubts about using tictok for keeping tabs with your audience Mike. She says the TikTok algorithm is unreliable for putting your content out to your followers. A substack would be better in her opinion. You will get a lot of views on tictok, just not necessarily from people who follow you.

As someone who listens to this and Some More News, I’m always down for listening to more discussion from Dave about the real cool news!

You rightly go into how weird it is that Scotty seems unconcerned that everyone he ever knew is dead, but for me it’s even wilder that he doesn’t really delve into the strong possibility that they might not be. Spock is alive, and McCoy either is or recently was. That means that with a bit of luck, anyone Scotty knew who was either younger than McCoy or is a Vulcan could still be around.

I really should’ve guessed this one. Great pairing.

Hate to say it Swaim, but might be time to follow Jason Pargin to tiktok. Plus you guys would kill it on short form video.

Yes!!!! It’s been a boring two weeks. These episodes could be longer, just a suggestion.
