Pete returns this week with a mission: convince everyone to listen to Dungeon Crawler Carl. The crew dives into Matt Dinniman's bizarre sci-fi/LitRPG universe, the incredible audiobooks, Princess Donut, the dungeon system, its mix of humor and violence, and why the upcoming adaptation could become a major franchise. Pete even stakes his nerd credibility on Carl and Donut becoming a modern Sam and Frodo. Episode 289_transcript_named Eric then breaks down the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season finale, including its time-bending story, Kirk's Enterprise, Uhura's role, questions about canon, and why the episode feels closer than ever to the Original Series. Episode 289_transcript_named Kevin reviews Reacher Season 4 and the new Neagley spinoff, arguing that Maria Sten more than proves she can carry her own series without relying on Alan Ritchson's Reacher.

For those we've already done, we'll re-up them in the feed (as we're doing this week) and supplement with an episode of Enterprise (to celebrate its 25th anniversary) or other episodes. This week, listen to the second episode we ever did! How have Bryan and Kristen changed over the years? Listen and find out! A SECOND PILOT? Star Trek spent three seasons defying the odds, and it all started here in this second pilot, a rare occurrence by TV's standards even today. What did NBC see in this show? Why, the promise of action adventure and solid science fiction, of course. They get all that and more  with William Shatner as Captain James R. Kirk of the USS Enterprise and a script by novelist-turned-TV writer Samuel A. Peeples.  As the Enterprise probes the edge of the known galaxy, they encounter an energy field that gives Captain Kirk's best friend, Lt. Gary Mitchell, the power of a god. In order to save his ship, Kirk must choose between stranding his friend on a distant world or killing him.  Check this one out to hear how Bryan first saw it and why both he and Kristen think Gary Mitchell is a piece of sh**.

Show Note Episode 533: Space: The Syndicated Frontier This week Host Dave Bledsoe was ejected from a Star Trek cosplay contest because his Trill Symbiont was deemed to be “excessively phallic”. (The judges weren't wrong.) On the show this week in honor of Star Trek's 60th Anniversary we examine the Legend of Gene Roddenberry.  Along the way we are reminded that Dave has been a dweeb his entire life. Then we dive into the mechanism that allowed Star Trek to last six decades in the zeitgeist. (Cheap content on which ads can be sold.) Then we dive into the history of The Original Series and discover it was NOT popular at the time. We follow along as the show limps through three seasons with the help of some VERY motivated fans. (Hi Bjo!) We see how Gene went from being a moderately successful Hollywood producer to a Prophet, (The visionary kind, not the Wormhole) and how Gene REALLY liked being adored.  From there we discuss the battles over the soul of Star Trek and how Gene was universally wrong about everything.  Finally, we examine the legacy of a man who creates wonderful things while being a terrible person. Our Sponsor this week is Marauder Mo's Action Playset, do you have the LOBES to ride with Marauder Mo? (Lobes sold separately) We open with the first Star Trek movie and close Jeff Lee singing the lyrics to a gross money grab.

Tread Perilously's Star Trek month continues with an episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds called "A Quality of Mercy." When Captain Christopher Pike considers altering the fate he has been dreading since his year in command of the U.S.S. Discovery, a future version of himself makes him leap into the events of "Balance of Terror" -- only he's still in command of the Enterprise. Will he make the same choices as James T. Kirk? Or will his wish to save everyone lead the Federation into another prolonged war. Also, whose fate among the Enterprise crew is crucial to future events? Erik and Justin consider the Kurtzman Era of Star Trek via a legacy sequel (or is it a requel?) to one of The Original Series' best episodes. Continuity and Enterprise also come into question. Erik marvels at how much Akiva Goldsman gets Trek. Justin reconsiders Joel Schumacher. The pair debate a recent Strange New Worlds episode inspired by soap operas. Erik removes Kirk from William Shatner. Sarek's abilities as a father are doubted. The pair also consider Trek's tendency to equate promotion to admiral with death. Justin's attempt to use Middle-earth mythology gets an immediate correction and Babylon 5 cannot help but make another return.

Tread Perilously begins its 10th annual Star Trek month with the classic Original Series episode "Balance of Terror." When the U.S.S. Enterprise is called to the Federation Neutral Zone along the border with the Romulan Star Empire, they discover outposts have been destroyed. When the ship reaches a base under attack, they learn the truth: the Romulans have crossed the zone with a new ship capable of cloak and a devastating energy blast. Will Captain Kirk and the crew manage to prevent the Bird of Prey from returning to Romulan space while stopping the incident from becoming a full scale war? Justin argues Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is also a sequel to "Balance of Terror." Erik recalls the correct stardate for once. Kirk's tendency toward crappy Internet Atheism is examined. Navigator Stiles brings Dr. McCoy's racism into stark relief. Next Generation barber Mr. Mott proves to be an eternal being. The pair try to figure out what Patrick Stewart or Avery Brooks would say upon returning from space. Leonard Nimoy once again earns MVP status for a superb exposition dump. Justin determines the origin of DeForest Kelly's accent. Erik admits to being behind on Strange New Worlds. Collision acting is reviewed and Babylon 5 cannot help but enter the chat.

REUPLOADED WITH NO COPYRIGHTED MUSIC!Celebrating 35 Years of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. After the release of The Final Frontier, Paramount was not keen on making another Star Trek film. There were ideas bandied about, and even a prequel got so far as the storyboarding stage before being abandoned in favor of a final film starring the original cast. Released on December 6, 1991, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Star Trek, The Undiscovered Country bookended the Original Series era with a film that told its version of the collapse of the Soviet Union - the film is the first to be released following the collapse of that communist nation.

Where No One Has Gone Before (Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG), S1 E6) was recommended by Pangolin - as in, that awesome mammal with scales who looks like a tank. He/him, who said: This is a very early episode in TNG and things are all over the place with the technobabble and characters, but the ideas are huge and the plot is bonkers in all the best ways. Star Trek at this stage was still very fantastical, like in The Original Series, baffling weird stuff Just Happens and the crew have to deal with it each week. This time we get Wesley Crusher's new interdimensional bff and his sidekick fakeout guy, who accidentally mash the keyboard and send the Enterprise 'past warp 10' and to the far side of the universe with no way to get home. I just love how weird everything is in this episode, and how many epic and also bizarre and awesome moments we get. We've only just got used to how The Enterprise looks when it enters warp in TNG, then things get fucky and we get a side-view of the Enterprise appearing to enter warp while at warp as it goes up to ludicrous speed. As a kid this was just mind-blowing and this whole episode evoked (and still evokes!) such a sense of awe and wonder. Things only keep getting weirder and now dangerous as reality starts breaking down for our crew, where space and time and thought are no longer the separate things we believe them to be. We can pick at plot holes and weird details but this remains a stand-out for me with just how enjoyable this episode is, and how much it is an exemplar for the heart of Trek. It's always on my rewatch rotation!Where No One Has Gone Before first aired on October 26, 1987, written by Diane Duane & Michael Reaves, and directed by Rob BowmanWarp efficiency tests send the Enterprise traveling far beyond known space, where the crew's imagination takes on real form.

Star Trek has inspired generations of fans with its optimistic vision of the future, but where does the franchise stand today? In this episode of Eat Sleep Nerd, we tackle one of the biggest questions in modern sci-fi:Is Star Trek broken?From classic series like The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager to newer entries like Discovery, Picard, Strange New Worlds, and more, we explore what's working, what isn't, and whether the franchise has lost its way.More importantly, we each pitch our own ideas for how to fix Star Trek. Should the franchise return to its roots? Take more risks? Slow down? Focus on new crews and new stories? We debate it all.

While this episode has its quirks and questions, it certainly addresses some very important topics. We hope you enjoy as we celebrate our country's milestone birthday with some Trek!

Anson Mount is returning as Batman in the animated Knightfall trilogy — and Strange New Worlds Season 4 just dropped its trailer. Plus: new Trek merch you'll actually want to own. Welcome back to Blerd Trek: Last Week in Star Trek for the week ending June 27, 2026. This week, the boundary between Starfleet and Gotham got a whole lot thinner. Anson Mount (Captain Pike) is reprising his role as the Dark Knight in Batman: Knightfall Part 1, an animated trilogy adapting one of the most iconic Batman stories ever told. We break down what Mount brings to Bruce Wayne — and the surprising history of Star Trek actors voicing Batman (looking at you, Bruce Greenwood). Then we dive into the Strange New Worlds Season 4 trailer and what it means that Paul Wesley's Kirk is front and center. Are we inching closer to the Original Series timeline — and could Year One actually happen? Plus: a merch roundup featuring the Loungefly Star Trek Tri-Quarter Glow Crossbody Bag, the ultra-limited Hallmark Shuttlecraft Einstein ornament from The Doomsday Machine (only 5,000 units), and Factory Entertainment's gold-pressed latinum bars, Kataan necklace from The Inner Light, and the laser cannon replica from The Cage.
