Apple Podcasts5gallandro1United States3 years ago - 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!
