Episode 2: First Officers
What are Riker’s defining first officer qualities? Why is there so much competitive BS between Riker and Shelby? Why is Riker continuously passing up command opportunities? How do Thomas and Will interact? Why isn’t Riker a Captain by Insurrection? Listen as Ashlyn and Rhianna discuss the position of First Officer and how Riker fills the role in The Next Generation.
SPOILER ALERT: Next Generation, Insurrection, and some Lower Decks.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Talk of rape and assault allegations
This is the second episode of our First Officer Series, where Ashlyn and Rhianna talk about the position and who fills that role in every Star Trek show, starting with The Original Series and ending with Strange New Worlds.
