  • Absolutely hilarious

    Was introduced to this crew at DragonCon 2024 and had a fantastic time. Looked up the show and am so happy I did. You can tell that they have a vast knowledge and appreciation for Trek and use it for wonderfully hilarious ends.

    Cannot recommend this show enough.

    I am excited to work my way through the seasons and follow the adventures of the Crew of the Tempest. 🖖🏻

  • With Alacrity!!!

    Started listening to Starship Tempest to get me back into the swing of running a STA game myself that was on hiatus. Well, let me tell you: this show has me so excited to be running it again.

    The cast does a fantastic job of keeping me fully entertained and there is some hilarious banter in there. If you love Star Trek and TTRPGS, you should give Starship Tempest a shot.
