Podcasts about Shore leave

Die Enterprise-Crew braucht dringend Urlaub. Also besucht sie in „Human Best Friend“ einen Vergnügungsplaneten, der Entspannung garantiert und seine Gäste schon über die Atmosphäre in Feierlaune versetzt. Eine absolut vernünftige Entscheidung, die bestimmt keinerlei dienstrechtliche Nachbesprechung erfordert.

Sorry for the late episode, folks. But we wanted to do something special. We were in Lancaster, Pennsylvania for Shore Leave 46 and in fabulous hands with many of Star Trek adventure's most prolific writers. We will take you on the tour of Vendor Hall, meet some familiar faces, and talk about convention etiquette. Let us know what you think of this episode. It's different than what we usually do.   https://linktr.ee/studiotembo

Come with us to the early 2020s, when WB was busy making legacy sequels and canning random completed movies for tax breaks and check out "The Matrix Resurrections". One of the Wachowskis comes back under duress since the trilogy was going to become a tetralogy (quadrilogy?) whether they liked it or not, so they figured they may as well try to say something with it. It's very meta, oddly introspective, and sometimes a little sad while also still being over the top and loud. It's definitely interesting, if nothing else. Also this week: some great Keanu work, a possible Wachowski Rosetta stone, and the collapse of the industry.

It's the original end of "The Matrix" trilogy as we take a look at the very noisy "The Matrix Revolutions"! We've got a big CG battle loaded with characters we don't care about, we've got another visit with the Merovingian, and we've got a new Oracle (did you notice?!). Sense has largely left the building in this messy, loud, and frankly perplexing finale. Also this week: who's who in Zion, unsubtle imagery, and the answer is always hubris. [Revolutions: 2:17] [Classic Blog Top 5 Sci-Fi Films: https://sshbpodcast.tumblr.com/post/805114279084900352/top-five-sci-fi-movies ]

"The Matrix" is BACK, baby, and it's bringing along WAY more money and WAY more special effects for "The Matrix Reloaded"! Get ready for MORE fighting, MORE Agent Smith, and MORE uncomfortably long gyrating rave scenes! What, you don't want that last thing? TOUGH, it's there and it ain't leaving! Also this week: too much movie, who's Tank, and story time with an 8 year old! [Reloaded: 01:51] [Ames's fanfic again because why not: https://sshbpodcast.tumblr.com/post/727743566816935936/tales-from-the-holodeck-voy-fanfic-amess]

Mr. Anderson! Come in, sit down, put on your comfiest headphones. It's time to discuss possibly the most iconic of Keanu Reeves' many iconic roles. It's time for "The Matrix", a movie that arguably had as big an impact on how Hollywood works as the original "Star Wars" did some twenty-two years before. Reeves is Neo, a man who finds out his world is not what he believed and he might be the Chosen One humanity needs to save it from its unwitting slavery. But first he needs to learn Kung Fu. Also this week: an unexpected "Trek" connection, that steak, and Reeves leads. [The Matrix: 2:41]

What happens when a painter/sculptor and a sci-fi writer want to make an art film but can only get the budget for an action movie? The very, very confused "Johnny Mnemonic". Watch in confusion as Keanu is told to switch off his usual, easy charm to play a fairly wooden courier! Be annoyed as rights issues and studio meddling turned the much more interesting bodyguard character into a dull sidekick. And wonder why, for the love of God, they put Henry Rollins in this thing. Also this week: the greatest monologue in cinema, Val's choice, and old Chris yells at cloud.

Well, it took a lot longer than the writers hoped, but a third "Bill & Ted" finally graced our screens in 2020! With most of the world locked indoors, maybe all we really needed was a film with a simple message lacking in any cynicism. After your hosts' cool reception to "Bogus Journey" last week, did the more straightforward "Bill & Ted Face the Music" resonate with us? Listen and find out! Also this week: many side plots, the mystery of Cudi, and oddly touching moments! [B&TFTM: 01:35]

Next stop on our Shore Leave jaunt is "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" and what can we say but: at least William Sadler is a delight. Your stalwarts find themselves a bit underwhelmed by this odd sequel, which maybe was a little TOO different from its predecessor. Something is just missing this time around, and no amount of weird robots or caked-up Martians can fix it. Also this week: sequel issues, more film trauma for little Chris, and forgetting their own rules.

EPISODE 713 - Scott Pearson - Simon & Schuster's Star Trek Novel Editor and Author Taking Us To New Places and BeyondThis episode features author and editor Scott Pearson sharing his woodland life in Carlton, Minnesota, and his multifaceted career in science fiction, Star Trek, and publishing. From fan to professional, he reveals how persistence and adaptability built his path through a rapidly changing industry.Scott describes his detached office amid the trees, a quiet hub for editing and writing. Publishing has evolved dramatically since his early days mailing manuscripts; self-publishing, once taboo, is now viable. His key advice: keep writing, finish stories, and explore contests or networks to break in. A lifelong Star Trek fan since grade school, he started with derivative sci-fi, shifted to literary fiction in college—his first published story about a Minnesota farming couple—then returned to genre via the Strange New Worlds contest win. This led to Star Trek short stories, a novella, and an ebook, plus anthology work blending sci-fi, mystery, horror, and thriller. His latest, the self-published The Sad Rains of Mars, collects a dozen sci-fi tales.As Star Trek's copy and developmental editor, Scott ensures fiction aligns with canon, verifying quotes by rewatching clips. He balances fandom with professionalism, enjoying stories while catching continuity gaps for "retcons." Fan fiction hones skills but stays non-commercial; licensed work requires agent connections and multi-layer approvals from publishers and Paramount. Conventions like Shore Leave connect writers and editors.Freelance editing—Star Trek novels, Baen Books, IDW comics, self-publishers—fills his days, often crowding personal writing despite a Monday-Thursday schedule. He spotlights Tales of the Weird World War, co-written novellas with Bill Leisner mashing genres in an alternate history of shapeshifting monsters, from 1940s noir to 1950s saucers.Key takeaway: Persistence through industry shifts, from fan roots to pro editing and original work, turns passion into a sustainable creative life—finish stories, honor canon, and balance paid gigs with personal projects.https://scott-pearson.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

We're taking one of our patented Shore Leave breaks before the next leg of "Trek", and this time we're going over some choice cuts of the career of Keanu Reeves! So we're starting where you know we have to: "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure"! It's a classic tale of two well-meaning dopes trying to pass history with the help of time travel so that they can be the foundation of a utopian future! Also this week: a very smart dumb movie, some poorly-aged things, and alternate Rufuses (Rufae?) [B&TEA: 02:58]

Shore Leave (Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS), S1 E15) was recommended by He/Him, who said: "Velcome to FANTASY PLANET!"Okay, I'll be honest. 90% of the reason I'm recommending this episode is to see Khaki's reaction to the beginning of Star Trek's long, and weirdly specific, obsession with stereotyping the Irish. Aside from that, I like it because this one of the most lighthearted of the early Trek episodes, coming right after the incredibly tense "Balance of Terror." Ultimately, there's no antagonist, no one is hurt (well, permanently anyway), and everyone has a good time. It's just a chance for the actors to have a few nice character bits as the episode explores the mystery of the planet itself, which every show needs.Oh, and Kirk wanting a massage from Spock is a COMPLETELY PLATONIC desire, I swear!Shore Leave first aired on November 17, 1966, written by Theodore Sturgeon, and directed by Robert SparrPart I: Spock hijacks the Enterprise to take his crippled former captain, Christopher Pike, to the forbidden world of Talos IV. He then demands a court martial, where he uses the events of The Cage to tell the tale of Pike's captivity on the planet years earlierThe Joy of Trek is hosted by Khaki & Kay, with editing & production by Chief Engineer Greg and music by Fox Amoore (Bandcamp | Bluesky)Send us your recommendations, or support us on Patreon.Find us at joyoftrek.com · Twitter · Facebook

Auf geht's zu neuen Ufern: Ab jetzt besprechen wir einfach, wonach uns der Wind um die Nasen pfeift.Den Anfang machen wir mit einem schon fast magischen Trickfilm - der natürlich sehr im Meer verwurzelt ist: Mit "Song Of The Sea" kommt Felo neu an Bord und diese "Melodie des Meeres" klingt wirklich ganz wunderbar passend in unsere maritime Welt hinein.Felo hat aber nicht nur den Film, sondern auch sein Trickfilmer-Nähkästchen (oder besser: seine Stiftsammlung inklusive elektrischem Anspitzer) mitgebracht und plaudert ein wenig daraus. So konnten wir diesen Film nicht nur aus ganz verschiedenen, sondern auch mit einer professionellen Perspektive angemessen würdigen.

It had been a while since either Brady or Ryan had seen Shore Leave, the famous, fever-dreamesque outing of the Original Series in which Bones is literally killed and then brought back to life -- an incident that probably isn't even the weirdest thing that happens in the episode -- and boy, had we forgotten some of the finer points. Join us as we discuss Trek's descent into madness, courtesy of the strange, brief Trek career of writer Theodore Sturgeon.

When everyone but Spock is exhausted from their space adventures, a shore leave planet starts gaslighting them about some dangerous illusions. But after no one can find the glade and the landing party gets stranded, a Caretaker appears and explains the amusement planet's safety precautions. How do you know if you can do a bit on your boss? Who is a little like Bruce Wayne but not really? What does Captain Kirk's snake tattoo say? It's the episode that approaches the uncanny valley from the opposite precipice with a glade in between.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Having arrived on Glazov 5 there are a few things that our heroes have to handle -- hanging out with Dani, turning on Terra, reuniting Kyle Reed with Quinn, getting Micah laid -- the list goes on and on. How will Marcus and Dani get along? How mean will Terra be when she is reawoken? And will Micah get laid or blackout again?

With their current stint in The Vast completed, the crew begin their much needed shore leave on Absalom Station. Star Raiders is a Starfinder 1E actual-play anthology podcast. Exploring the unknown is part of the job for the members of Drebin Industries' Xenomineral Scout Team. But deep in The Vast they encounter more than they bargained for, turning their galaxy upside down. Check out our website for more content, or support us on Patreon!

Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds. In Star Trek: The Original Series “Shore Leave,” the Enterprise crew beams down for some much-needed R&R and ends up dodging their own daydreams. Sulu's obsession with antique weapons resurfaces, and Jim, A.Ron, and Talitha debate two key questions: how many Talithas does it take to beat a tiger, and who in their right mind would want fantasies this dangerous? (00:00:40) - Captain's Log (00:05:56) - Commendations (00:31:19) - Court Martials (00:51:43) - Tricorder Readings (00:58:43) - Pulling Rank Bruce Mars and the Self-Realization Fellowship Beam your feedback to startrek@baldmove.com.

Shore leave is a fundamental part of life at sea. It has been for centuries. The modern seafarer can spend up to 11 months on board a vessel during a contract, so getting on to dry land whenever possible can be an important form of rest and recuperation. But this custom is under threat. A recent report by the ITF Seafarers' Trust showed that a quarter of seafarers surveyed said they did not get any shore leave during the entirety of their contract. For those that did manage to get ashore, nearly half said they spend less than three hours ashore. From visa requirements, a simple lack of time, or even the prohibitive cost of a ride to the port gate, seafarers face many barriers to getting shore when one of the very limited opportunities presents itself. Can anything be done to halt the extinction process? Joining Joshua on this week's podcast are: Tim Hill, chief executive, Stella Maris Ben Bailey, director of programme, Mission to Seafarers Several serving seafarers aboard vessels across the world

Shore Leave gestrichen, Logik aktiviert: „Four-And-A-Half Vulcans“ serviert euch Lirpas, Laserblicke und Frisuren, die eigene Orbits brauchen. Wir sprechen über Pikes 42-Minuten-Schichtplan (Produktivität oder Performance-Kunst?), Uhuras Mind-Meld-Feintuning beim Date, La'Ans Versuch, den Alpha-Quadranten als 4D-Schachbrett neu zu bespielen, Pasalks Salz-Detox und natürlich DOUG (Patton Oswalt), der Spock in High-Fives und Kontraktionen coacht: „High five. Down low. It's.“ Bonus: Musikmontage mit „Reckless Youth“, Katra-Space mit Belugas (Cetacean Ops lässt grüßen), Plomeek-Suppe mit brutal ehrlicher Rezension und eine Tanztherapie, die aus einem Kampf wächst. Wir nehmen auch die große Frage mit: Was macht uns aus – Essenz oder Aufführung? Aristoteles nickt, Judith Butler tanzt. Holt euch den Spaß-Boost, schnallt euch an für Kanon-Schmankerl und feiert mit uns eine Folge, die so sehr eskaliert, dass selbst die Logik kurz kichert. #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #SNW #FourAndAHalfVulcans #DiscoveryPanel #StarTrekPodcast #Spock #Pike #Uhura #LaAn #Chapel #PattonOswalt #CetaceanOps #Katra #Lirpa #PrimeDirective #PlomeekSoup #RecklessYouth #PodcastTime

The SciFi Diner Podcast Ep 495 – Star Trek- Strange New Worlds & Reflections on Shore Leave 45

Some people get horny and some people get dead. Join two-thirds of your regular hosts and two amazing guest hosts as they compare how annoying Finnegan is relative to other annoying things, discuss the bizarre focus on absurd Irish stereotypes throughout the Star Trek franchise, and ponder the ethical ramifications of fornicating with an unlicensed simulacrum of your ex-partner. Note that Dan is on his own shore leave this week, but thankfully Jesse and Patrick are joined by Izaak from Trek 365 and Jesse from Open Pike Night to help navigate this campy classic. Be sure to check out there podcasts wherever you regularly check out cool podcasts, or just follow the links below: Trek 365 on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1Z2mQFDm86fhPozyr3N4XJ Open Pike Night Website: https://openpike.com/ Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: The Original Series, so if you haven't had a chance to see it yet – beware! Next week: We begin our weekly coverage of Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with "Hegemony, Part II" Finally!! Note that this and all episodes of the It's Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.

“Handsome Ransom” (October 25, 2009) Let's say this at the top: We are both fans in general of The Venture Bros, but this extremely homosocial show has a tendency to tiptoe up to being full-on gay and then laughing it all off as a joke. It's a product of its time, and even explicitly gay characters like The Alchemist and Shore Leave don't get their own episodes. So when it comes to picking one installment of the Adult Swim series that comes closest, we had to go with the one with Captain Sunshine, which sort of works but also makes the mistake of approaching pedo humor in the same manner it did gay humor. And that's kind of a fuck-up? Warning: Despite the presence of Brock Samson the art, Brock does not appear in this episode. We apologize. There are two Patreon-exclusive episode that tie into this one, if you're willing to pay the very low fee of $1 a month! There's an episode all about The Tick: https://www.patreon.com/posts/cartoons-that-us-129745700 And one about Jonny Quest: https://www.patreon.com/posts/cartoons-that-us-131953014 Both have a lot to do with how Venture Bros. ended up becoming the show it did! Have a listen!
