“I am a hardcore Trekkie and I have always loved audio dramas. Ironically, I was looking for a Star Trek audio drama but I wasn’t expecting to find anything. Imagine my surprise when, not one, but a handful of Trek audio dramas pop up from my search. This is the first one I listened to; out of all the Trek audio dramas I’ve listened to this far, this one is by far the best. (I’ve listened to Lost Frontier, Lost Enterprise, Section 31 Files, & Excelsior)
The casting is well done; the vocal qualities of the performers fit each character so well. It is obvious that a lot of thought and care went it the show’s production, including casting. The first 6-10 episodes don’t have the best balance of sound (the background noise overwhelms the characters speaking) but this is fixed very early on in the show.
The storylines are phenomenal and each episode leaves me hungry for the next piece of the plot. The characterization is believable and relatable. The dialogue is genuine (a couple of other Trek podcasts have really really campy dialogue).
Chief Knox really grows on you and he is my absolute favorite character. I also love the deep & complex friendship of Dr. Breetal & Captain Buchanan. It’s been a delight to “get to know” Captain Buchanan better and I look forward to his continual personal growth.
The drama is real and intense but also believable. It stays within the “Trek limits” of drama.
A minor thing though but sometimes the audio is louder in my left headphone than my right (or vise versa). I know it’s not my headphones; it happens with every pair of headphones I use and only with some podcast audio dramas. It seems like it happens when 2 or more characters are sharing a microphone and the audio isn’t balanced between the left & right audio speakers very well. I tend to be more sensitive to things like that. It’s just a minor distraction and the plot is so good that it’s easy to soon ignore it.
All in all it is a fantastic show. I have told all my Trek friend about it and the word is really getting out to the far corners 😄. I am enthusiastically looking forward to episodes 75+. Keep up the high quality work Giant Gnome! And LLAP 🖖🏻”

“I have listened to a few podcasts dedicated to the Star Trek universe and this is the best by far.
Plenty to keep you interested with ongoing story lines, characters with depth, humour and horror.
You are doing great work Giant Gnome, keep it up.”
