United States2 years ago - Matthew Rushing is abysmal
How can you be a Star Trek fan AND a right-winger? It's truly disappointing.
Apple Podcasts1“The Tank"United States4 years ago - Books and Comics Positivity
This is a great show for discussion, interviews, news, and commentary about Star Trek books and comics. The hosts, while always giving their actual takes on the material, try to find the goodness in whatever they review and do not take pleasure in bashing anything. There is a good sense of humor present in the episodes, too.
Apple Podcasts5BrandonH83United States6 years ago - Good TOS and TNG books reviews.
This is a solid podcast with two guys the clearly like Trek and are enjoyable to listen too. My only main issue is they are heavily focused on ToS and TNG books/content. They hardly ever touch on other series like Voyager and DS9. Would be nice if they covered Trek books more broadly.
