Ricardo has never watched Star Trek before! So Marvin and Dan take him on a journey to watch it all, one episode at a time! We're currently going through Star Trek: The Next Generation! Newbie Star Trek is part of Fugitive Frames.
The Newbie Star Trek podcast is an absolute gem that I discovered through TikTok. As a fan of Star Trek, I have listened to various podcasts dedicated to the franchise, but none have captivated me quite like this one. Unlike many Star Trek podcasts that come across as self-righteous and preachy, The Newbie Star Trek podcast feels like sitting down with a group of friends and watching an episode together. The hosts, including both guys and girls, are hilarious, down-to-earth, and offer great insights into the episodes.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the camaraderie and humor between the hosts. They create a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel like you're part of their conversation. Each episode begins with 15 minutes of seemingly irrelevant banter, but it's often these tangents that provide some of the funniest moments. Their ability to poke fun at themselves, forget character names, and miss critical plot points adds to the charm of the show.
Additionally, The Newbie Star Trek podcast offers unique perspectives on each episode. They discuss set production, acting choices, and filming theories that provide fascinating insights into how the show was made. It's almost like watching a behind-the-scenes documentary while re-watching the series. This level of analysis elevates their reviews beyond simple recapitulations and allows listeners to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for The Next Generation.
However, there are some aspects of this podcast that may not appeal to everyone. As mentioned before, the first 15 minutes can be seen as irrelevant by some listeners who prefer a more focused discussion on Star Trek episodes. Additionally, because they watch episodes out of order in reruns during their childhoods, some references or discussions may not make complete sense when watched chronologically.
In conclusion, The Newbie Star Trek podcast is an absolute delight for any Trekkie or even someone new to the series. It offers a fresh and entertaining take on The Next Generation, with a perfect balance of critique, analysis, and comedy. Whether you're looking for insightful discussions or just a good laugh, this podcast delivers. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to re-experience the joy of Star Trek through the lens of hilarious and passionate hosts.

Time's Arrow, Part II! The rest of the Enterprise crew follows Data through the time hole, and it turns out they fit... quite well into 1893 San Francisco?

A Matter of Time! An episode so annoying and so bad that not even Robin Williams could've saved it, and not even the time travel plot could entice Ricardo! Wow, is it really that bad?

Unification I! Jasmin returns to unify with the NST crew and discuss Leonard Nimoy unifying with the TNG crew to unify the TOS and TNG storylines!

Silicon Avatar! Who would've guessed that the Crystalline Entity would ever come back? Well, I guess Marvin did since he already saw the episode before, but Ricardo, Sara, and Dan didn't! Are we ready for a crazier version of the Admiral Satie performance from "The Drumhead"? Too bad, it's happening already!

Ensign Ro! Well, Wesley's gone, and we need a new spunky low-ranking character that's constantly accused of committing war crimes. Why not Ro Laren?

Redemption II! A lot's happened since we've been away! Picard's starting a blockade, Worf thinks Klingons aren't so cool anymore, the Duras sisters try to eat Worf's chin beard, Data gets discriminated against AGAIN in a society that supposedly has completely eliminated racism, and I guess Yesterday's Enterprise Tasha had a daughter?

A Klingon Challenge! Hey, I don't remember this episode of TNG. Why's the Enterprise empty? Why are they using non-Star Trek font? Why aren't they shooting this with film cameras? Who's this Kavok guy? Why are we looking at some sort of game board? And what is this "VHS" you speak of?
