  • Great podcast

    This is an entertaining podcast. I really appreciate that you can play it with children in the car. So many Star Trek podcasts use profanity indiscriminately. Even the ones featuring Star Trek actors.

  • A Waste of Time

    There is an unfortunate amount of recency bias here, as regards “Strange New Worlds” & “Picard.” “S.N.W.” is better than “Discovery” & season three of “Picard” might be better than season one, but that’s no excuse for cutting the new shows more slack than is given to T.O.S. & the “T.N.G” era shows.

Shuttle to Kenfori (SNW)
Q: What is it you're not sure you're buying with the Ortegas subplot?
Just if it's going to be too easy and resolved without proper depth, like with Nog and Deep Space Nine.
Shuttle to Kenfori (SNW)
Q: Jimmy, what about you?
I thought it was okay. They've got a pattern this season of alternating serious and lighter episodes.
Shuttle to Kenfori (SNW)
