Trekking through the past and future of Star Trek
Buckle up, Trekkies! This week, we're joined by the one and only Tyler Pilkinton — YouTuber, Starfleet enthusiast, and all-around sci-fi nerd. We dive into what makes his channel so popular, his favorite corners of the Star Trek universe, and maybe (just maybe) debate which captain reigns supreme. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just here for the warp core gossip, this episode is full of laughs, trivia, and pure Star Trek joy. Engage!
Boldly Going Where Lanita Really Has Never Gone Before! Special guest co-host Austin Smith beams aboard as we join Lanita—who's never seen Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. (Yes, the one where they literally go looking for God.) Strap in as we journey to the center of the galaxy, climb a mountain or two, and take in Lanita's unfiltered reactions to space campfire songs, rogue Vulcans, and philosophical deep dives. It's part sci-fi, part spiritual quest, and 100% Shatner.
Boldly Going Where Lanita Has Never Gone Before! Special guest co-host Matthew Jennings beams aboard as we sit down with the one and only Lanita—who's never seen Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. (Yes, the one with the whales.) Join us as we explore time-traveling starships, 1980s San Francisco, and Lanita's completely unfiltered first impressions. It's part sci-fi, part comedy, and 100% whale song.
