With Star Trek: Discovery in its fifth and final season, Transporter Room 3 beams down with a snapshot review of the first four episodes so far. We discuss what’s working, what could work better (another MacGuffin puzzle plot, really?), and what we thought of “Face the Strange” going full time travel. Listen now and also take a trip to the Replimat with us for some 1999 Steven Soderbergh, a ballerina vampire, and a Red Shirt from Disco!

Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise, Denise Crosby herself beams into Transporter Room 3 for a wide-ranging chat. We discuss how the Tasha Yar actress got her start in the industry, what it was like growing up with the famous "Crosby" name, why she left Star Trek... and how she's still with Star Trek after all these years! This is a good one, guys. Don't miss it!

This is a big one. Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise, Pavel Chekov himself -- Walter Koenig -- beams in to Transporter Room 3 for a frank discussion about the ups and downs of the Star Trek life. You don't want to miss this one, folks! We were never that young!

Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise! This week, Saru himself - the talented Doug Jones - beams down to Transporter Room 3 and Scott kinda makes him cry, in a good way. Jones takes us behind the scenes of his impressive career, from working with Guillermo del Toro to boldly going onboard Discovery. This is one (sometimes emotional) interview you don't want to miss.

For its 35th anniversary, we're revisiting Star Trek: The Next Generation's "TheMeasure of a Man" -- an all-timer episode of both TNG and all of Trek. It's the one where Picard battles Riker to defend Data's right to be, well, Data. Is he a person, or property? It's a classic Trek-ian argument played out here to courtroom drama perfection, in an episode that holds up especially well after 35 years -- BUT, it's an episode that Gene Roddenberry almost killed. Why? Listen now to find out!

*In vintage TNG trailer for next week’s episode voice* This week, Scott and Phil beam down to the USS Pegasus to help Will Riker retrieve a dangerous cloaking device. Will we succeed before the Romulans catch us? Find out on an all new episode commentary on Transporter Room 3! That’s right, we’re visiting TNG’s Season 7 episode “The Pegasus,” just in time for its 30th anniversary this week. Listen now!

Transporter Room 3 celebrates its 12th anniversary this week (*toasts glass of Kanar*) with another Star Trek episode commentary: “Charlie X.” It’s Captain Kirk vs. a 17-year-old orphan who can vanish sparring partners like Sam (RIP) or disappear a woman’s face with his mind. We have all the behind-the-scenes trivia you could ever want about the episode, so listen now!

Mariner, Boimler, Rutherford, Tendi and the rest of the Lower Decks crew are three episodes in to their newest season and it may be the best one yet - especially after that premiere episode.

It’s been a long road, getting from there to here… Happy 250th episode to us! After 12 years (!), we’ve reached this milestone and we’re celebrating with Pike, the Gorn, Sisko and Shatner’s Captain James T. Kirk! This week, we review “Hegemony,” Strange New Worlds’ Season 2 finale, as well as the recent season. We also take a deep dive into the making of one Deep Space Nine’s best episodes with our commentary track on “Trials and Tribble-ations.” So get comfy, replicate a cup of Klingon...
