    I just found this gem within the last month and have been binging all the episodes from the beginning. I thoroughly enjoy the content they put out and the camaraderie they present it with. Their reverence for TOS has drawn me into watching through the original series with fresh eyes. I love listening to them.

    UPDATE 4 MONTHS LATER.

    I fell in love with Trek during the movie era in the 80's. And while the original enterprise and crew have always been my favorite, I'd only seen a few epi... more

  • Another lazy, half assed edition of Inglorious Treksperts. This podcast is just badly recorded extracts from sci-fi conventions. It's dead Jim.

  • It's about the future, Madame Chancellor

    Just as much as the Enterprise crew were my childhood heroes, I lived for the stories from the writers who brought Star Trek alive in magazines like Cinefantastique, StarLog and books like Trek Navigator and the DS9 and Captains’ Logs. So when I met Mark Altman at the New York 50th, I spent the weekend at his panels, getting his autographs on Free Enterprise (original and deluxe editions) and the books that helped me write so many law school Trek-themed papers my professors started expecting the... more

  • There’s more Star Trek out there.

    They seem to primarily want to talk about The Original Series, The Motion Picture, and The Wrath of Khan. And they’ll look for any possible angle to do that.

Q: When you were coming up with the concept for the 30th anniversary, was Tribbles your first idea?
Ronald D. Moore said he initially proposed revisiting “A Piece of the Action,” but another writer suggested returning to “The Trouble with Tribbles” and putting DS9 characters into the original footage. The idea immediately excited the writing team.
853. THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE FUZZY w/ DAVID GERROLD, RONALD D. MOORE, CHARLIE BRILL & MORE
Q: When it came time for Star Trek to celebrate its 30th anniversary, and you found out it was going to feature the Tribbles, what were your first thoughts?

850. STAR TREK VI REUNION w/ NICHOLAS MEYER, STEVEN-CHARLES JAFFE & CLIFF EIDELMAN
Q: What were some of the first conversations like between Nick Meyer and Leonard Nimoy about Star Trek VI?
Nimoy and Meyer discussed the concept in London as a new direction for the series, with Nimoy proposing new ideas and Meyer outlining a plot that balanced political intrigue with character-driven storytelling, ultimately leading to an intergalactic crisis that anchored the movie.
