“It hurts to write this, because I am a lifelong Trekkie and do not want to tear down anything related to the shows/series/franchise.
This podcast appears to be little more than a marketing front. The only discussion of issues is superficial, there is very little depth other than “I have (an opinion) about (topical issue) too.” You have to realize that Trekkies are going to expect a more in-depth discussion of the various social issues brought up in the series. I guess that is a difficult order to fill without coming across as “too preachy,” which various series just may have done a little bit over the years.
The guests have to save the podcast when they get an opportunity to speak on topic. I am turned off by all the folksy, personal discussions about episode premieres and personal background and how the history of the series applies to one person. We all have that experience, it’s why we are here. We don’t need to be re-sold or have our allegiance to the series re-affirmed by hearing about someone else’s background. Some guests are better than others at keeping their egos in check.
So maybe my expectations were a bit too lofty, but I still feel a bit let down.”

“At the end of the week, there’s nothing nicer to put on than a podcast with hosts that understand fully what a show can mean for people. I’m a recent graduate from University who, due to COVID and lockdown measures over here in the UK, had to leave my student home of three years as well as five...”Read full review »
