This week we are reconnecting with the crew of the U.S.S. Protostar. We'll review Star Trek: Prodigy episodes 3 and 4 of season two.  We also talk about D23 and what Disney has planned with Marvel, Star Wars, and action remakes like Lilo and Stitch and The Lion King.  Star Trek got some heartbreaking news this week, as we learn of the passing of Patti Yasutake aka Nurse Alyssa Ogawa. We get an update on the Paramount sale.  And who has the nicer fanbase, Marvel or Star Trek. We'll tell you what one actor is saying.  News: Patti Yasutake passes away https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/patti-yasutake-dead-star-trek-generations-beef-1235967384/ Paramount announces layoffs https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/08/paramount-global-para-q2-earnings-report-2024.html Rebecca Romijn says Trekkies are friendly https://www.slashfilm.com/1636248/rebecca-romijn-star-trek-trekkies-less-scary-marvel-fans/ Trekcast is a fan-made Star Trek podcast.
