  • I have had a hard time being engaged and listening to mutiple episodes. The content is good I just have an issue with one of the presenters. One speaker is easily listened to - clear and able to be heard and coherent thoughts. The other is about half the volume of the first which makes it hard to hear - but also speaks e x t r e m e l y slow. Almost like he is making it up as he goes. Think a bit before you start recording and speak at a normal cadence instead of all these stops and pause... more

  • A Welcome Addition To The Trek.fm Family

    As a long time listener to some of their other shows (“The 602 Club”, “The Orb”) it’s nice to have these two experienced ranch hands in the saddle to lead us through “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”.

    A combination of praise, criticism and thoughtful musings, this is THE podcast to listen to if you’re making your way through “ST:SNW”.

    A big thank you to Chris and Matt for such a wonderful show!
