Shownotes

Stormy Weather (Star Trek: Discovery, S4 E06) was recommended by Tonks (they/them), who said:

I consider “Stormy Weather” to be peak Trek. It’s one of many “void episodes” of franchise, and uses that basis to tell an engaging story that demonstrates the best of Trek.

From the cohesion & enthusiasm of the crew, the excellent leadership, the exploration of self & identity, to the dealing with new experiences & old wounds; all of this create a package that also homages some memorable moments in the franchise without drawing attention to them.

This episode puts compassion, intelligence, & understanding forefront, while also being an almost silent celebration of the tried & true in Trek.

Stormy Weather first aired on December 23, 2021, written by Anne Cofell Saunders & Brandon Schultz, and directed by Jonathan Frakes

The Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)
