“I’ve tried what feels like every Star Trek podcast on the planet, especially episode recap shows. This is, BY FAR, my favorite ST podcast. In fact, it’s in the top 3 of podcasts I listen to across the board, maybe #1 for consistent quality. Some things I truly appreciate:
1. 35-50 minute typical run time.
2. Discussion stays on track and relevant to episode featured.
3. Alternates guests, but they are well selected and have interesting viewpoints. He also keeps them on track (again VERY appreciated).
4. Organized.
5. Pensky does some deep analysis, but its smart and practical. In other words, this is not the ST podcast where people stretch one line into some theorem on the universe itself.
6. Regular posting schedule he actually sticks to.
7. No ads, no breaks, no interrupting the podcast—forcing you to fast forward while driving. Not that I do that kind of thing. That would be, um, dangerous.
8. Did I mention he was organized and stays on topic, while providing interesting analysis? One would think this would be a requirement for all podcasts. To each his own, I suppose!”
