This episode takes John D. and Gen into a black hole as they meet the new crew of the Enterprise in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek.

This Episode takes John D. and Gen back to where it all began as they watch Star Trek: The Motion Picture. We comment on the choice of wardrobe, the ungodly amount of reaction shots, the use of the transporter, how Kirk motivates his troops and the awfully long introduction shot of the refitted Enterprise. We go trough the blue space cloud as we follow the unnamed man that is constantly drifting in space and can’t get our mind around the amount of time it takes to get to V'ger. |

We also give our humble opinion on Data’s death, the implications of a Betazoid wedding and the 40 minute final battle. |

We talk about the new official uniform, the Baku as a race of deep sleepers, Worf's great introduction, Picard's worst romantic storyline ever, Riker's giggling and Levar Burton's Reading Rainbow. We rant about the cheap holodeck, the time-slowing love interest, the appearing Starfleet base, Data's weird loss of control and John D.'s continuous problems with Troi. We talk videogames of course, including Borderlands and Star Wars: Clone Wars. |

This episode takes John D. and Gen into the neutral zone between the Klingons and the Federation in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. We are more than happy that Sulu finally got promoted to Captain of the Excelsior and are surprised that Chekov didn’t kill Gorkon. We watch as the Scooby Star Trek Gang must solve their biggest mystery yet - why the Federation keeps sending Kirk on diplomatic missions. As we go down this quest for peace, we discover that Earth literature is obligatory reading in most Klingon schools, that not every alien keeps their organs in the same place and that Romulan Ale is more and more common in the universe. We brush upon the Walking dead, the Green Lantern, Fallout New Vegas and the numerous bugs that plague it. Join us for the last movie of the original Star Trek series cast.

This episode takes John D. and Gen back to the Genesis planet in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. We noted that the bar scene looks like the Star Wars Cantina, arcade games are still made with vector graphics and Doc Brown is one mean Klingon. We also discuss the political implications of Klingons as well as their dangerous sense of honor. We tangent all over the place and explain why The Lion King is a perfect date movie, the relevance of a theatrical trailer that shows all the best scenes and why Gen is not playing Fallout New Vegas yet. This is our craziest podcast EVER. We ask the question: With which SF character would you have a beer?

This episode takes John D. and Gen aboard the Enterprise as we launch the Star Trek arc starting with a double feature including an episode from the Original Series: "Space Seeds’’ and ‘’Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan’’! We of course talk about Ricardo Montalban's chest, the Shat's acting abilities and the introduction of the Kobayashi Maru. We tangent all over the place, talking about John D. meeting Kevin Smith, Gen's Halloween costume, Leonard Nimoy's career, why we are afraid of teleportation and the arrival of Netflix in Canada. For some reason we can’t stop screaming ‘’KHHAAAANNNN’’ and wonder how many fans stop the Shat in the street while screaming it. |
