We are still being dogged by technical issues at all times. But despite that, a new episode came out today! Andy Clift joins us to look at Through the Valley of Shadows, a couple of great scenes surrounded by a so-so episode of Discovery! Wherever you get your podcasts.

New episode! We look at Perpetual Infinity, an episode so interesting, that we discuss many other TV shows and films instead. Like, more than usual.

New episode! We look at The Red Angel, an episode that is… eh, it happened. After some highs, it seems season two of Discovery is going back down.

Also, our previous episode came out, but we forgot to promote it. So listen to that too.

Hey folks. Just a quick one to say that there’s no episode this week. We do have one recorded and edited, but we’ve decided to go to a bi-weekly release schedule for a bit. We’ve got a couple of holidays interfering with recording this month, and we want to try and avoid more large gaps. Hopefully.

It has been two years since Kris Carter joined us for a look through the racist window. Good time. Have a listen to our episode on Divergence, the climax to Enterprise’s bumpy headed Klingon storyline.

New episode! Rachel England joins us to watch If Memory Serves. This would be a terrible episode to introduce someone to Star Trek with. It’s also Rachel’s introduction to Star Trek. Oops. Our bad! Wherever you get your podcasts.

What’s this? Did we release a new episode? You bet your sweet, sweet ass we did. We look at Light and Shadows, as Spock finally turns up in Discovery! Plus! Pike and Tyler fight a future squid! Wherever you get your podcasts.

Also, thank you for bearing with us. There were a lot of technical issues with this one, and editing around them was time consuming. You’ll still hear the odd bit of bleed and some poor audio, but we’ve done what we can.

We have a new episode coming out on Wednesday! Finally!

And, in the meantime, today is three years since we released one of our very best. As you wait for the new episode, why not revisit Tarquin’s Castle?

Podcast · PJ Montgomery · PJ Montgomery and Mat Troy are life long Star Trek fans. Eliot Red hasn't really watched much Star Trek at all. PJ and Mat decided Eliot should watch all of it.

We may not have released a new episode recently, but Eliot has released new music. Here’s a new tune from him, Meteoric.

We want to say sorry that we haven’t released a new episode for a few weeks. We’ve been having increasingly large technical issues with each of our last few episodes. The current one has been the worst, and editing it is proving to be a nightmare. But we’re getting there. It’s coming soon.

Hey folks. There won’t be an episode next week. PJ has attempted to edit it twice, and twice, audacity has just deleted all the audio. We still have the raw recordings, but PJ will need to start the editing again, for the third time, and just doesn’t have time to finish it before Wednesday.

We think (strong emphasis on think) we have figured out what was going wrong, so hopefully we can get it sorted the third time. But you’ll have to be patient with us. So sorry. This is what happens when you let three nerds with very little tech savvy run their own show.
