  • This is a fun podcast to listen to especially since it is from 2 guys who are actual fans of the STTNG world. Unlike some other podcasts like Bald Move, who by the way seem to be very misogynistic towards all the female characters, these guys don’t tear the characters down. I love when Matt and Dave start riffing and laughing about the funny scenes and enjoying the comedy for what it is. Love you guys.

  • I have found my people

    So my favorite Trek above all is Deep Space Nine. And Dave and I bonded on Twitter thru our shared love and told me about his show. He and Matt know their Trek!! I have so many gaps and stuff I remember from all the Star Trek I’ve watched over the years and can’t always pull a factual memory on command but these two dudes can. I love the chemistry between the two and the laughter, really shows that they love what their doing and I’m here for it.

    I still think we should have seen a Sisko show we... more

  • The next generation

    These guys do a great job discussing the show. It really feels like your hanging out with a couple of close friends having a good time talking about a show that they obviously love and share a deep history with. There are other shows that are good at going into the technical minutiae, some that delve in to the philosophy of the show, others that go into the technical aspect of creating the show. All of them serve a purpose, but this particular show really makes you feel like you’re having a beer... more

  • Too much politics, not enough Trek

    I don’t care about Robert Beltran’s politics any more than I care about Mitch McConnell’s or Nancy Pelosi’s TV preferences. Spending long chunks of time on political tangents is not the podcast I was hoping for when I clicked on this.
