301: Gypsy Violin

"Booby Trap."
 
"Booby Trap" is a season three episode of The Next Generation
that is probably best-known for showing Geordi La Forge falling
in love with a holographic version of engineer Leah Brahms.
However, there's a lot more going on in this episode that can
lead to conversations about war's long-lasting effects, how to
solve an engineering problem, when people are needed instead of
computers, and much more.



In this episode of Earl Grey, hosts Joe Keegan and Justin Oser
are joined by guest Shoaib Mirza, Associate Producer of The Edge,
to talk about the season three episode of The Next Generation,
"Booby Trap." The discussion includes Geordi's love life, an
ancient war, Picard's childhood hobbies, and the human element in
problem-solving.
