TalkinTrek

Daughter visited Dad thanks to the anti-sandwich vaccine! So we thought it fitting to talk about Voyager's Resolutions, where Janeyway and Chakotay are infected with an incurable sandwich.

And we're back! Dad and Daughter have returned to talk to you about TNG's Cause and Effect because we don't know about you, but we've been stuck in a time loop as we near the end (?) of this quarantine. D&D discuss how no one listens to Crusher or Troi, Rom Coms, and Voyager's Tom and Harry's new podcast, The Delta Flyers!

Happy Halloween! Here's a special spooOoOoky Halloween episode for ya! Dad and Daughter along with brother/son talk about TNG's Night Terrors. This episode was referred to us as nightmare fuel...well, you be the judge, but it does have murder, people going crazy, and scary hallucinations. Thank goodness for Data... and Guinan's mega gun.

Dad and Daughter are back again and talking about the classic TOS Trouble with Tribbles.

We're back! And we're talkin' conventions! Dad and Daughter and the Official GTSer talk about their favorite nerd conventions, and Dad interviews his college professor and family friend who attended the first ever Star Trek Convention in 1972!

Dad and Daughter talk Dreams! In this episode we talk about TNG's Phantasms. Data has some crazy dreams, so D&D talk about these crazy pandemic dreams we've been having.

Dad and Daughter and the official GTSer are getting through this quarantine with another Voyager episode, " Year of Hell." Oh boy, we sure hope this pandemic isn't a year! We did find a lot of connections with this episode, from "non-essentials" talk, to not knowing what day it is, in this episode about how Red Foreman erases species from time, and his people are in battle with Voyager for a year.

It's a special Quarantine edition! Dad and Daughter are back at it again with the official GTSer talking about Voyager's Macrocosm. It's an episode about a "virus" that gets on Voyager. Too soon? Maybe, but we sure do have fun.

Oh boy, Talkin Trek listeners! Are you in for a treat? It's our Shut In Addition of Talkin Trek as this was the first episode recorded during the great 2020 Quarantine. And Dad and Daughter talk about Picard! We go over the pilot episode, how Patrick Stewart is playing Picard these days, The girl who Jason Bourned it, oh and did I mention we talk about Picard? Beware, we were quite in our cups. Lord beer us strength!

Khan you believe it? We're bringing Botany Bay Back here at Talkin Trek where Dad and Daughter talk Khan's origin story, Space Seed! We discuss what possible lessons were learned from this TOS episode, what really happened in the 1990s, and discuss what it must have been like to hear rumors about this guy Khan for the next 30 years. KHAN!

Dad says the TOS episode of The Deadly Years is where " Kirk, Spock and company are exposed to a form of radiation that makes them age rapidly. Kirk learns that there isn't any fun in retirement. That's because he doesn't have a podcast." That about sums it up for me! Join D&D as we explore old age together. Be brave, and don't forget to Caucus all you Iowans out there! Vote with your heart. #yeswecan

Happy Thanksgiving to our Talkin Trek family! While you're traveling to your family destinations, listen to this episode where we talk about TNG's "Family." Picard goes home to spend time with his brother, Worf's human parents tour the Enterprise, and Wesley gets a message in a bottle from his dear ol pops. Get your hankies out, and have a great holiday!

After a taping goes awry, Dad and Daughter are determined to share with you our thoughts about this TNG episode "Where Silence Has Lease." It has a gecko like alien doing experiments on the crew, perfect Polaski moments, and Picard being his best most philosophical self. Not to mention, this episode includes Ensign Haskell (R.I.P.) who is best known for his cameo in the "Turn Down for What" Star Trek meme. Look it up and Enjoy!

Dad and Daughter get silly and descend into cheap voices while covering Picard and company in a TNG episode, "Clues." Professor Mustard not included. How did we not make a single Clue joke??

Dad and Daughter and the Official GTSer discuss the TNG gem "Lower Decks." Get out your hankies when you rewatch this one, kids. It's about overcoming your past, advancing in your career, and getting through those lower decks of life. Get out your shot glasses, you're gonna wanna toast this Red Shirt. Make it so.

Dad and Daughter and the Official GTSer discuss TOS' Pattern of Force, where Kirk and Spock stumble upon a Nazi Planet. There are some hot takes! and #shotsfired! But ultimately Nazis are bad, and audiences today could really learn a thing or two from Kirk, Bones and Spock. Also! Dad has a surprise for Daughter, so, never fear, there's some giggles in there, too. #lazers #vulcanneckpinches #karatechops

MEAY Ya SEE? Dad and Daughter explore Star Trek TOS's A Piece of the Action, where Kirk, Spock, and Bones go to a planet where it's 1920's Chicago! We like Chicago! Go Cubs! Keep an ear out for a special guest appearance half way through! And beware the 20s gangster impressions, I mean, enjoy the 20s gangster impressions! Honestly, there wasn't enough.

Talkin Trek goes legit! Well, not really, but still! Dad and Daughter are joined by scientist brother as they talk about comets, how science works in Star Trek, Improv, and the deliciously delirious Data as we talk about this TNG episode, Masks. Dad and daughter love to dote on Data, don't you?

Dad and daughter and son talk about the last episode of The Next Generation. Hold onto your butts! We get in Crusher debates, Dad announces big news, and wow it's a good thing they had Data around. Yes, all good things must come to an end...but don't worry, there's more talkin' trek to come!

It's Talkin Trek's anniversary! Dad and Daughter go through their favorite star trek episodes of the last year, and discuss Star Trek Discovery.

Happy Festivus everyone! and remember, Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Thanks, Neelix! In this episode, we talk about Voyager's Waking Moments. We talk about lucid dreams, how Harry is still an ensign, and get in the holiday spirit.

This episode, Dad and Daughter are accompanied by the Official GTSer. We talk about DS9 and its mirror universe. We may or may not also talk about Futurama, Q, Thor, and other pop culture references to get out of talking about the episode.

Dad and Daughter talk universals translators, 13th Warrior, and Chuck Norris jokes! Shaka, when the walls fell!

Dad and Daughter try to find something positive about Star Trek the Animated Series. Then they explore the complexities of human relationships as they relate to mortality. Sort of...

After a lil' hiatus, and a few glitches, Dad and Daughter and Son, are back to talk about arguably the BEST (??) Star Trek movie, The Wrath of Khan! Brigid is note-free! Jerry says Khan is a literary scholar! Dad says Dad jokes! Listen long, and prosper!

Dad and Daughter and a special guest, (our official GTS-er), are back at it again! Join us as we discuss the varying stages of facial hair evil, THE HAIKU CONTEST WINNER, and the awful way women were treated in the 60s, er, I mean, in this parallel universe. So sit back and listen as we talk about the TOS episode, Mirror, Mirror!

Once again we ask the BIG questions here at TalkinTrek. But never fear! Dad and Daughter also have fun reading Star Trek haikus, talking about Picard's hair, and corticol stimulators! Gotta love that Star Trek speak!

Once again, Dad and Daughter talk Q with this amazing TNG episode, Tapestry. With special guest @geraldpkelley, the three talk about regret, failure, and the meaning of life! But don't worry, there's some good ol dad jokes in there for good measure. Enjoy!

Ok, here it is, really! This week D&D talk about some deep stuff, I guess Q does that to ya. We talk about "Death Wish" from Star Trek Voyager, and contemplate Talking Heads lyrics, history, and the meaning of life.

Hope you had a great First Contact Day! On April 5th, Dad and Daughter celebrated the future holiday by talkin about the Star Trek movie, First Contact! Special Guest, Aric Anderson, helps steer us in the right direction, as well as provides great comic relief! So put on some Steppenwolf, drink some whisky, and eat some pirogies, and celebrate First Contact Day...again!

This week, Dad and Daughter discuss another time travel episode and possibly one of the best episodes of Star Trek. We discuss Deep Space Nine: Trials and Tribble-ations.

Round of applause to those visual effects artists, amiright?
