Primitive Culture: A Star Trek History and Culture Podcast


Apr 30, 2020

Picard Season 1, Part II.

Ancient utopias? Lovecraftian monsters? A quixotic quest, where the windmills may be giants after all? The second half of Picard’s first season continues to draw on a rich well of inspiration.
In this episode of Primitive Culture, host Duncan Barrett is once again joined by Tony Black to continue their discussion of the historical and cultural influences on Star Trek: Picard, this time focusing on the back half of the season. From impossible boxes to Arcadian golems, join us as we continue our trek through the show’s freshman season.
