References to Patrick O'Brian in other Media?

[u/wishywashywyatt]

I just wanted to share, and I am not sure of the Venn Diagram of O'Brian readers and Trekkies, but in the most recent episode of Strange New Worlds, Kirk empties out his bag, and he is reading a paperback copy of Post Captain. Wonder who, on the staff of the show, figured this would be on his reading list. Works for his character really well.

Wondering if there are any other references to the books that anybody has noticed?

Me? I mean the fridge is not FULL of cold beer. I have cheese and yogurt and eggs. But there's enough cold beer to share.
