AUDIO FROM THURSDAY NIGHT GEEKS Bill and Dan are boldly going where few fans dare to tread: straight into the heart of Star Trek controversy. Everyone has a hot take, but not all opinions are created equal—and tonight, they're putting theirs on display. From the final frontiers of franchise canon to the captains, crews, and creative choices that divide the fandom, no corner of the Trek universe is safe. Expect a lively and honest conversation that challenges long-held beliefs and re-examines the things we all thought were settled. The guys are pulling no punches as they each share five of their most unpopular Star Trek opinions—and believe us, some of them might raise a Vulcan eyebrow or two. Whether it's about storylines, characters, or what should (or shouldn't) count as "real Trek," these takes are bound to get people talking. Of course, it's all in good fun. Thursday Night Geeks is a celebration of everything Star Trek—disagreements and all. So pour a raktajino, strap in, and get ready to yell at your screen (or maybe nod in silent agreement). You might not agree with everything said... but you'll definitely have an opinion about it. Be sure to hang around after the end theme for a brand-new outake from Bill and Dan recorded after this episode livestreamed! ======================================= Music for Trek Geeks is provided by the world's greatest Star Trek band, FIVE YEAR MISSION!

“Nothing Hectic” This week, the Sistas are thrilled to bring you a special treat: the audio from our press junket with the cast of AppleTV+'s sci-fi epic Foundation! After two long years, we finally had the opportunity to meet and speak with this incredible ensemble, and we couldn't be more excited to share it with you—just in time for the Season 3 premiere on July 11th. ✨ NO SPOILERS – Just good vibes and great convos.

Audio from Thursday Night Geeks We're charting a course straight into the explosive Season 2 finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds — "Hegemony." With tensions high and the Gorn deadlier than ever, the crew of the Enterprise faces a nightmare scenario that pushes Starfleet ideals to the breaking point. We'll examine how the series handles high-stakes conflict, moral dilemmas, and the weight of command in this harrowing final chapter of the season. We'll dive deep into Captain Pike's impossible choice and the toll it takes—not just on him, but on his relationships with his crew. From Spock's desperate search for Christine Chapel to La'an's cold tactical edge, every major character is tested under fire. We'll also take a closer look at the return of the Gorn as a modern Trek threat—what works, what terrifies, and what it all means for Starfleet going forward. And of course, we'll talk about that ending. The final moments of "Hegemony" leave us on the edge of our seats and wondering how the crew can possibly regroup. Has the Enterprise ever been this outmatched? Join us as we unpack the emotional weight, story structure, and cinematic style of the episode that's redefining what a Trek finale can be.

The Superhero Show Show #592STAS: Electro's IntroductionThe Superhero Show Show: Electro's Introduction Sparks a New Threat in Spider-ManThis week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts shine a spotlight on episode 5.05 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, titled “Chapter V: The Price of Heroism”—an electrifying entry that marks Electro's introduction to the series. As Spider-Man faces the rise of one of his most powerful foes yet, the podcast team explores how this new villain reshapes the stakes in Season 5's escalating storyline.Power Surge: Electro's Introduction Shocks the Spider-VerseThe episode discussion begins with a breakdown of how Electro is introduced as a truly formidable opponent. Unlike earlier portrayals of costumed criminals, this version of Electro is depicted as the son of the Red Skull and an unstoppable energy force—blending family legacy, global threat, and raw power. The hosts praise the dramatic buildup to his reveal and how his abilities present a level of danger that Spider-Man hasn't faced in this arc.They also highlight how Electro immediately asserts dominance, not only overpowering Spider-Man but also turning on his father, the Red Skull, and taking control of the doomsday device. The panel debates whether Electro's raw energy and desire for control make him one of the show's most terrifying foes.The Cost of Heroism and Spider-Man's DesperationMoving into character dynamics, the hosts focus on the emotional and thematic weight of “The Price of Heroism.” As the title suggests, this episode forces heroes to grapple with sacrifice. Captain America and Spider-Man both make major decisions in the face of Electro's overwhelming power. The podcast highlights Spider-Man's desperation as he attempts to stop a foe he cannot outfight.They also touch on the return of Black Widow and the use of parallel world tech. It's a visually ambitious episode that ties multiple threads together while still introducing a new antagonist with gravitas.Final Thoughts: Electro's Introduction Sparks High StakesAs the episode wraps up, the panel agrees that Electro's introduction injects fresh danger and energy into the final season of Spider-Man: The Animated Series. His emergence sets the stage for an epic confrontation, testing not only Spider-Man's abilities but his resolve.With dynamic action, emotional depth, and a villain worthy of the spotlight, “Chapter V: The Price of Heroism” proves to be a standout. And as always, The Superhero Show Show delivers sharp analysis, witty banter, and the superhero commentary fans crave.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?

Audio from Thursday Night Geeks We're thrilled to welcome actor, artist, and all-around creative force Bruce Horak to the livestream! Best known to Star Trek: Strange New Worlds fans as Hemmer, the gruff but endearing Aenar engineer of the U.S.S. Enterprise, Bruce brings a unique perspective as the first legally blind actor to play a recurring character in the *Star Trek* franchise. Join us as we talk about his time on the show, his experience stepping into the Trek universe, and how he helped redefine what representation in science fiction can look like. But Bruce's journey doesn't stop with Strange New Worlds. He's embarking on a deeply personal new mission: a documentary titled "Boldly Going", which chronicles his life as a visually impaired artist, performer, and now cultural trailblazer. We'll explore the inspiration behind this project, how fans can support it through his current Indiegogo campaign (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/boldly-going-documentary#/), and why this story of resilience, creativity, and vision is so important in today's media landscape. Expect laughs, insights, and maybe even a few tears as Bruce shares how his love of storytelling—and Star Trek itself—has shaped his path. We'll also dig into his stage work, his incredible portrait paintings, and what it means to truly "go boldly" as an artist who defies expectations at every turn. And of course, it wouldn't be Thursday Night Geeks without some behind-the-scenes tidbits. Set phasers to "inspired" and don't miss this heartwarming, eye-opening episode with one of the most fascinating voices in modern Trek.

But with time, politics, and betrayal burying their legacy, these heroes faded from public memory… until now.The panel discusses how Spider-Man: TAS cleverly weaves these original characters into Marvel's mythos, creating an alternate version of events that mirrors the Super Soldier Serum storyline.

From Star Trek to Shakespeare and Afrofuturism This week, the SyFy Sistas sit down with the incomparable Conrad Coates—the actor behind Admiral Terral on Star Trek: Discovery, and a true force in the worlds of theatre, teaching, and Afrofuturistic storytelling. In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore: His experience portraying Admiral Terral, and what it means to lead in the Star Trek universe His extensive work with Shakespeare, including performances at the Stratford Festival of Canada, where he portrayed roles such as Prince Escalus in Romeo and Juliet and various characters in As You Like It His role as an educator and mentor, shaping the next generation of performers How Afrofuturism informs his worldview and creative work—blending history, imagination, and liberation Conrad Coates is a storyteller, a leader, and a teacher who bridges worlds—from the 23rd century to the Elizabethan stage. This one's for the thinkers, the dreamers, and the future-builders.

In this episode of Filmmaker Mixer, we sit down with Guatemalan filmmaker and animation artist Ursula Echeverria, founder of Kikotem Studios. A graduate of CalArts' prestigious Character Animation program and credited on high-profile projects like Xico's Journey (Netflix) and Ruthless: Monopoly's Secret History (PBS, Amazon Prime), Ursula is now blazing a new path in children's television.She joins us to discuss her award-winning body of animated shorts — featured in over 60 festivals worldwide and honored with 30+ awards — and her next big leap: "The Treasure Box", a vibrant Pre-K animated series that helps children explore and understand strong emotions.Currently in early development, The Treasure Box has already won four awards for its pilot script. Ursula shares insights into how she's building international partnerships across Latin America, Canada, and Europe, the mentorship of Disney's Stephen Anderson (Meet the Robinsons), and what it takes to get a show ready for the global stage — all while staying rooted in Guatemala.We also discuss her presence at major festivals and markets like Annecy and CRMM, and how artists from underrepresented regions can break into the international scene.
