Intelligent discussion on big issues
I really appreciate Star Trek for its intellectual and socially progressive messages. Of all the shows, DS9 arguably does the best job wrestling with the real life issues in a way that encompassess and respects all belief systems while forcing us to examine and question ourselves and humanity. Chris and Matt do an excellent job discussing the larger issues and character developments of the show in this analytical podcast. Many of the messages of Star Trek and DS9 in particular are quite relevant to today. If you listen to this podcast you'll get an enjoyable conversation and perhaps examine DS9 and current events in a different light. One of the best things about this podcast is how vocal Chris and Matt are about their differing viewpoints while remaining genuine in their respect and appreciation of one another. Their IDIC is a true honor to Roddenberry's vision.Read full review »

The only thing that isn't great about this podcast is when Mathew says Jadzia and it sounds like Janzia. Keep up the great work!Read full review »

Do you love Star Trek: Deep Space Nine? I bet you don’t love it as much as Chris and Matt, your hosts providing in-depth discussions of characters, episodes, and topics portrayed in this beloved Star Trek series. Give it a listen; you won’t regret it!

DS9 is my favorite Trek, and The Orb does a great service by looking at characters, episodes, ideas, themes and stories behind this series. The hosts have a great way of making me see new things about DS9. It's well worth a listen. maj'Qa!Read full review »
