I very much enjoy these guys and their loose style. They present their opinions from quite different viewpoints, which is useful. They are all middle aged white fellas, but they are largely aware of their biases and acknowledge them on air. My one niggle, and it is a hopelessly teensy one, is that Dan directs listeners to their “social medias”. The correct phrasing should be “socials media”. At least, I’m fairly certain it should be. I’m only caught up to Ep. 224, so I look forward to hearing th... more

I just learned about your podcast and I’m starting with episode 1. It’s hysterical you are keeping track of the number of deaths. The show is informative and funny. I couldn’t hear your guest Ayla to well, don’t know if that was her or you. Know I can’t access the rest of season one. What happened?
Love how genuine and casual everyone is. It’s always a fun time!
Can’t believe that Apple glitched and you lost your reviews. Anyway, as a full time listener from EP 1, I must say I look forward to y’all’s shows each week. I always love hearing your witty banter and the recaps/trivia contained in each show. You guys crack me up! And,your guests are fabulous as well. Good times. LLAP

A lively, humorous deep-dive-focused show that dissects Star Trek across eras, with a recurring emphasis on DS9, classic TOS/TNG, and broader Trek lore. Episodes blend character analysis, plot breakdowns, and behind-the-scenes trivia, all delivered with banter, nostalgia, and accessible explanations that welcome longtime Trekkers and newcomers alike. Noteworthy is the balance between affectionate fandom and critical appraisal, occasional live-from-conference-style panels, and a pattern of bringing on guests to expand the conversation around leadership, ethics, and franchise history.
Listeners are likely drawn to thoughtful nerd culture discussions, episode-by-episode recaps, and community feel—often leaning toward long-running series knowl... more
