  • Fun for any Star Trek Fan

    I learned about this podcast from another Star Trek podcast and have just started exploring. I love that all the seasons they have focus on different topics. I’m currently listening to their first officers season and it is excellent! I love that they spend an entire episode on each first officer and site specific episodes they used in their discussion. As a long time Trekkie I’m officially hooked!

  • Like a conversation with friends who get you

    The relaxed and affirming style that Ashlyn and Rhianna bring to this delightfully deep podcast is an amazing enhancer to my Star Trek experience. Each series takes the boundaries of time and space and boldly goes where no one has gone before. The depth of thoughtful engagement continues to extend my thinking as I enjoy the company of these sisters and their insightful guests as I move through my daily life in my car and garden and kitchen. Thankyou
