We’re on a second contact mission, revisiting Star Trek: Enterprise Season 3, Episode 10 “Similitude,” now that Bill, Jamie, and our guest, science-writer Bethany Brookshire, have watched it and have strong opinions on why the clone-based ethical conundrum posed in this episode doesn’t work. And in our Mammary Alpha segment, Jamie does a deep dive into whether there are bathroom facilities in the NX-01 shuttlepods and what they must have smelled like when Malcolm and Trip were stuck in one together for three days.

A word of warning: If you haven’t listened to the episode before this one, “Send in the Clones!,” go listen to that first because this is a follow up to last week.

We now have merch! Show your love for EnterpriseSplaining and the cutest beagle ever with aPorthos Appreciation Society shirt!

EnterpriseSplaining is proud to be part of the ESO Network.

The show is produced by K.O. Myers at Particulate Media
