Writer Alan B. McElroy joins us to peer through the glass of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' “Terrarium.” It's the "Mortegas" episode we've been waiting for and we let Alan know it gave us all the feels!
We discuss a number of inspirations and references, discuss Erica's chess strategy, and the culinary horror giant bugs. Plus: the joy of writing fan-fiction that just happens to be Trek canon!
A lively, craft-forward conversation packed with laughs, lore, and practical insights for anyone who loves television writing - and especially Strange New Worlds.
