  • In depth yet whimsy....

    Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the Star Trek podcast you have been looking for. From an eerie Sisko impression from Emissary Pt1 to the behind the scenes knowledge from their dazzling day jobs, this podcast has it all. Just don’t get them started on Commander Riker costume issues. You will not find another podcast that respects the value of a good Red Shirt. Defiantly worth the listen

    These guys love Star Trek. Unlike a lot of podcasts these days, they can express where things are lacking in shows without tearing down the work or getting too cynical. Thanks for a great listen!
