Heute geht es bei Planet Trek fm um die Folge "Beta Test" aus der ersten Staffel der Serie "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy". Es diskutieren Claudia Kern und Björn Sülter.

Rob and Kev emerge from regulation appearance arches, ready to fit right in among the first class of cadets to train at Starfleet Academy since the Burn. After taking in their surroundings, they discuss the recent audio drama series, “Star Trek: Khan”, and the premiere episodes of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, “Kids These Days” and “Beta Test”. They then hit the books, studying up on past appearances of the Academy grounds in “The First Duty” (TNG), “Homefront” (DS9), “In the Flesh” (VOY), "Star Trek” (2009), and “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan”.Star Trek: KhanTOS 1×24 Space SeedLieutenant Marla McGiversMargo MadisonSA 1×01 Kids These Days & SA 1×02 Beta TestNahla AkePeliaLanthaniteAnisha MirCaleb MirLura ThokJay-Den KraagSAMVOY 7×09/10 Flesh and BloodGenesis LytheDarem ReymiTarima SadalTam ElbrunTNG 3×20 Tin ManGeorge and GracieKlingon AmbassadorJett RenoSylvia TillyBoothbyStarfleet AcademyTNG 5×19 The First DutyNick LocarnoJoshua AlbertTillman Water Reclamation Plant (website)TNG 1×08 JusticeDS9 4×11 HomefrontTilly's treeLocating Starfleet Buildings in San FranciscoBoothbyVOY 5×04 In The FleshSubspace Radio 69: Going UndercoverSpecies 8472Star Trek (2009)Kobayashi Maru scenarioStar Trek II: The Wrath of KhanDesigning The Wrath of Khan's Sets: Starfleet HeadquartersSaavikLooking aheadTerok NorBajor(00:00) - Episode 83: Starfleet Academy (SA 1×01-02) (02:13) - Star Trek: Khan (09:58) - SA 1×01 Kids These Days & SA 1×02 Beta Test (43:50) - Starfleet Academy (44:10) - TNG 5×19 The First Duty (54:33) - VOY 5×04 In The Flesh (01:01:14) - Star Trek (2009) (01:02:18) - Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (01:05:52) - Looking ahead Music: Distänt Mind, Brigitte Handley

When the Betazed president alphas Admiral Keeps-Sending-You-Dave-Ramsey-and-Tony-Robbins-Videos during negotiations to potentially rejoin the Federation, it becomes clear he may not be there to negotiate in earnest. But after the president's daughter takes a liking to a Caleb, he may be able to save the negotiations as long as he doesn't goo everywhere first. Which dead actor is living on? How was BART rebranded? Which cadet is jacked like a WWE superstar?

STARFLEET ACADEMY – S01E02 „BETA TEST“ | Discovery Panel „Democracy is continuous action“ – und genau so fühlt sich diese Episode an: als politisches Dauer-Workout mit emotionalem Muskelkater. In „Beta Test“ startet das Herbstsemester an der Starfleet Academy – inklusive Unterricht (Alien-Schleim mit Beziehungsstatus), Culture Clash mit dem War College und einer betazoidischen Delegation, bei der ausgerechnet die Jugend-Aktivist:innen die Tür zur Föderation wieder aufstoßen will. Wir sprechen (ohne alles vorwegzunehmen) über: • Disziplin, Verantwortung & das wiederkehrende „Make your bed“-Motiv • Diplomatie, die sich anfühlt wie ein Gespräch kurz vor dem Phaser-Schuss • Betazoid:innen, Gefühle auf Anschlag – und Vertrauen als riskanteste Technologie • Star Trek als „nur Dialoge“-Feuerwerk (und warum das unfassbar gut funktioniert) Hashtags: #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy #BetaTest #DiscoveryPanel #StarTrekPodcast #Betazoid #Federation #SciFiPodcast #ParamountPlus

Is Starfleet Academy smart Trek—or just stylish noise? Dom Bettinelli, Jimmy Akin, and Fr. Jason Tyler discuss what it gets right as well as its political hinting, teen drama vs. diplomacy, and whether this new series earns its place in the Trek universe. The post Kids These Days and Beta Test (SFA) appeared first on StarQuest Media.

It’s the second episode of “Starfleet Academy,” and things are picking up speed. Political negotiations via college debating society! Betazoid mental shields! Many, many, many robots and aliens. But is it too much, or just enough? We break it all down, reassess “Star Trek Voyager” and complain about theme songs, and ultimately make an Important Contribution To (Head) Canon with the introduction of Whale Academy.

Class is in session! A new STAR TREK series on Paramount+ has reunited the DEBRIEF bridge crew! Join co-hosts Chris Clow, Rachael Clow and Cicero Holmes—with special guest JAVI TRUJILLO—to break down the first two episodes of STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY: "Kids These Days" and "Beta Test."

Cadet Staci Lee joins the crew to review the debut of Starfleet Academy. Set in the 32nd century, the show follows the next generation of Starfleet officers against the backdrop of the Federation rebuilding itself after the Burn. The star of the show is Cadet Caleb Mir, who has a double agenda of finding his long-lost mother, torn from him by the very admiral who is now the school’s chancellor. Ken and Staci love the new, young characters who are complemented by Discovery and Voyager veterans, as well as the new and familiar species, from Lanthanite, Exocomp, Jem’Hadar, Betazed, and Brikar to Khionian, Klingerite, Photonics, and Dar-Sha. It’s an exciting time for two Trek fans, one with a long connection to the series’ 60-year history, and one who is seeing it with fresh eyes.(The post Starfleet Academy S1E01–02: Kids These Days & Beta Test first appeared on Transporter Lock - A Star Trek podcast.)

In this episode of From the Holodeck, we examine the episode's narrative overcrowding, frenetic aesthetic, and drift toward YA storytelling, while weighing its strongest element—the Betazed diplomatic storyline—against broader ideological shortcuts about youth, progress, and hope. The discussion ultimately asks whether the series is building a coherent Trek worldview, or trading meaning and world-logic for...
