122: The Ethics of Jean-Luc Picard

Trek Untold: The Star Trek Podcast That Goes Beyond The Stars! - A podcast by Matthew Kaplowitz - Thursdays

Categories:

Jean-Luc Picard is known for his diplomacy and ability to masterfully handle tough decisions, but were all his choices the most ethical ones he could make? In this roundtable discussion honoring the release of Picard's third and final season on Paramount+, Matthew from Trek Untold asks the hard questions to Ashlynn and Rhianna from The Duras Sisters Podcast, Davey from The Treksperts Quiz, and Hawk from Strange New Pod about some challenging episodes. This highly philosophical chat covers episodes including "Symbiosis," "Pen Pals," "Up the Long Ladder," "Who Watches The Watchers?", and "Homeward," among others, and asks whether Picard truly was the most ethical Starfleet captain or not.
