When a private sub-space message is “delivered” to the Enterprise, Kirk and Co. make their way to Star Base 11. But when Spock takes this opportunity to abduct captain Pike and the ship, there's no TAL-ing what can happen. Is this Spock from an alternate Trek timeline? Will Bones address the elephant on the bridge? Can Pike scratch that itch? It's the episode that doesn't say “fire” but leaves its finger on the button.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.

It's one of the biggest television shows in history! Today at When It Was Cool, Karl reviews Episode 1 Season 1 of Star Trek from 1966. Now Karl is admittedly a bigger Star Wars fan than Star Trek fan but he tells us that he really enjoyed episode 1 of Star Trek. This episode in interesting, in that, it is actually closer to a horror or Twilight Zone episode than a sci-fi movie. We meet Captain Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Sulu, and others for the first time and learn a little bit about them. Join When It Was Cool for some fun Star Trek talk on this Wednesday retro TV review!

"Is the ship out of danger?" Spock's first question to Kirk after sacrificing himself wasn't about his own survival—it was about whether his life counted for something. Part 1 forced Kirk to accept death is coming. Part 2 asks the harder question: What will you lose your life for?Khan's superior genetics bought him nothing but wasted rage. Spock's sacrifice bought new life for everyone he loved. How we face death is as important as how we face life. You're going to lose your life anyway—will it be worth it?This episode is dedicated to Jeremy Ross (1974-2025), who faced his Kobayashi Maru with the same strength and grace Spock faced that reactor core.KEY THEMES:Sacrificial love as the answer to the no-win scenarioForgiveness vs. bitterness—releasing wounds before they destroy youFaith through pain—choosing God even when crushedMaking your life count—what will you lose your life for?
On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and I encounter the most advanced multitronic unit of the 23rd century: Richard Daystrom's prototype M-5 computer. Otherwise known as Dick “Defense-Ain't-Murder” Daystrom's Destruction Device. We'll get into this catalyst for Kirk's existentialist nightmare, maman, and maybe even explain how this could have been the perfect series finale.
The brash James T. Kirk tries to live up to his father's legacy with Mr. Spock keeping him in check as a vengeful Romulan from the future creates black holes to destroy the Federation one planet at a time.If you haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but want to for some reason, here is the link to ThanksKilling: The Musical: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZVpVhYzt0UTwitter: @comicrundownInstagram: @comicbookrundownThreads: @comicbookrundownEmail: comicbookrundown@gmail.comHosted by Joe Janero, Ron Hanes, Charlie Shaw and Chris Balga Edited by Joe JaneroTheme song provided by Cam Malidor Find our t-shirts at Redbubble and TeePublic https://www.redbubble.com/shop/comic+book+rundown?ref=search_boxhttp://tee.pub/lic/vBbIJZ4eLQ0
Considéré comme l'un des albums iconiques du rock progressif des 70's, voire pour beaucoup le meilleur de YES alors à son apogée créative : "Close To The Edge" est effectivement un incontournable et c'est avec un extrait de ce monument que s'est ouvert l'épisode de ce 444ème numéro d'Amarok. Le groupe aujourd'hui emmené par Steve Howe s'apprête encore à nous faire les poches avec deux coffrets à paraître début 2026. En janvier en son et en images avec la réédition deluxe du "Symphonic Lives" de 2002 consécutivement à la tournée de promotion de l'album "Magnification" avec orchestre symphonique (la formation étant alors privée de claviériste) et dernier tour de piste de Jon Anderson en son sein. Puis en février, celle du double album "Tales From Topographic Ocean" de 1973 avec son lot de prises alternatives, inédites, instrumentales, remix de Steven Wilson et tout le toutim ! S'il vous reste quelques pennies après les fêtes....A votre bon cœur !
The Man Trap! In this episode of the Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Mike Henley and Karie Coleman-Hinners begin a serious deep dive into classic classic Trek! In this episode we discuss the first ever aired episode of Star Trek the original series, "The Man Trap"! Salt vampires, Spock hitting people, Yeoman Rand eating Sulu's lunch... this episode has it all!
What happens when fans learn their beloved Star Trek is returning, but not the way they expect? This week on The Trek Files, we take a mid-season dive into the pre-internet letter-writing era of fandom with a look at Interstat #109, a Star Trek "LOC-zine" published just after the announcement of The Next Generation in late 1986. With Mission Log host and producer John Champion joining Larry, we revisit that first wave of passionate, skeptical, and sometimes prophetic reactions from fans adjusting to the idea of Star Trek without Kirk, Spock, or the original cast. From fears about recasting to early excitement about a new crew, these letters reveal a fandom both resistant to change and deeply hopeful for Trek's future. And while the tone may be more thoughtful than today's drive-by social media culture, the underlying emotions haven't changed. Together, John and Larry reflect on how fandom evolves, why backlash often masks deep investment, and how publications like Interstat helped shape the Trek we know today—slowly, one stamp at a time.
Episode Notes Jude gets a promotion! We start the Dominion War in earnest! A Time to Stand: Nearly everyone's on the Defiant, and the war isn't going great. Oh yeah and Jake is still on the Dominion-occupied DS9. Tetracel White is a strategic resource. Dukat is in charge on the station, but not _in charge_ with the Dominion there. Woo censorship! Worf is a bridezila. ROSSSSS! What percentage of Vorta dna is housecat? Dukat is, after all, a giant POS. Kira's maturation from firebrand to leader. Spock-ifying Bashir. Rocks and Shoals: O'Brien couldn't pull a Scotty, so now the Defiant's in trouble! Nog remembers what happened last season. Battles that we only see in DS9. Protests we only see in DS9. Kira realizes she's a collaborator now. The Dominion has never dealt with supply line issues before, apparently. BabSpace9 is a production of the Okay, So network.

Captain's Log: Stardate 3842.3 The Trek Cast has returned to the Apocalypse Video airwaves after a lengthy hiatus - just in time…for Thanksgiving. And we thought what better way to celebrate the holiday, than with an awkward family reunion with Spock and his parents. I'm told that Spock hasn't spoken to his father in eighteen years. I keep asking him about his Daddy issues, but he continues to shoot me down with his usual eye brow raise and glib remark about humans being stupid. I plan on getting to the bottom of this little family drama, just as soon as I figure out what that spinny disk thing is floating outside my ship, mirroring our every move, and rocking us back and forth with continued laser blasts - all of this, and meanwhile Dr. McCoy performs a dangerous surgical transfusion between Spock and his Father. There's so many plot twists in this episode, you'll be shocked it's not a two parter! I'm your host and Captain, Dave, and joining me as we try not to slip and call the Tellarites “pig men” are fellow crew members, First Officer Jackie and Lieutenant Michael. Topics of discussion in this episode include the rare TOS episode that actually delves into the character's back stories in a meaningful way; we applaud the acting prowess of fan favorite Mark Lenard; and finally, we try to understand what Spock's beef with Scotty was all about and why he had such an aversion to making him acting Captain of the ship.

David Mack: Ring of Fire. With fewer Star Trek series currently on TV, it's the novels that keep us boldly going. These stories bridge the gaps between episodes and explore what happens when the cameras aren't rolling — deepening our connection to the characters and giving us new adventures to imagine. It's an exciting time to see how writers expand the universe we know and love. In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Casey Pettitt and Jonathan Koan chat with author David Mack about his Strange New Worlds novel, Ring of Fire. They dive into the book's ensemble of characters, high-action set pieces, Spock delivering a memorable beatdown, and Pike's continued growth as a captain.

Episode 12: Romulans Is Pike's idealism a weakness or strength? Is it a bad thing that Pike listens to everyone's thoughts while facing the Romulans? Does Kirk's presence bring out the worst in Pike?

The Archaeoptimist drops Friday from Madfish Music. Ted talks about the big influence Ryo Okumoto had in writing the album, the many references to classic Spock's Beard songs sprinkled throughout the tracks, the status of Enchant as a band, his musical background, and much more.

On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and I learn that sometimes it's best to let Sargons be bygones - especially when you meet douche bags with big ball energy who like to call ya “son”! Hide your Muldaurs and hide your Spocks, maman! They're snatchin' everybody out here!As we continue our rewatch/first-watch of The Original Series, we find ourselves face-to-face with LIGHTS IN BALLS... or rather, the now-non-corporeal entities who used to be humans millennia ago, desperate to make it back into human bodies -- but becoming human comes with weaknesses, maman! Sargon, this sounds familiar... We're talking Star Trek 2x22, “Return to Tomorrow”
The Enterprise Incident (Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS), S3 E2) was recommended by IronBoomer; He/Him, who said: This one is largely fun from start to finish, as we literally start with Kirk acting out of his regular character, ordering the Enterprise into Romulan Territory; where they're prompted confronted by Romulans, who now have cloaking devices.Where this gets fun is watching Shatner purposefully overact as Kirk not acting "normal" and Nimoy getting to lean on the whole "no-emotions" with Spock purposefully seducing the Romulan commander. It really looks like he's gonna tap that Commander at one point, even if it's a seeming ruse.The Enterprise Incident first aired on December 20, 1968, written by Edward J. Lakso, and directed by Marvin ChomskyWhile transporting an arrogant, demanding spoiled princess for a political marriage, Captain Kirk must cope both with her biochemical ability to force him to love her and sabotage on his ship.[2]The 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

My guest for this episode is Swedish multi-instrumentalist and composer Jonas Lindberg. His band/solo project, Jonas Lindberg & The Other Side is set to release its third album, Time Frames, on Nov. 7. Jonas was kind enough to tell me about the new album, his approach to songwriting, why the band hasn't played live in more than 10 years, his musical influences and background, and more. The music can best be described as a mixture of Spock's Beard, The Flower Kings, Kaipa, and Genesis, but there are other flavors as well.

A Note from the Host: Please accept my sincere apology for the audio quality on my end of this recording. Despite buying new equipment to improve the audio quality, I made a rookie mistake. I didn't look at my own audio levels before recording and didn't notice my four-year-old maxed out the volume on my mixer. Despite my best efforts to fix it in post-production, my audio is unfortunately quite distorted. Justin Hunsaker's audio is perfect, and that is where the real value lies. I ask you to forgive my technical error and embrace the fantastic communication insights Justin shares. The lesson he delivers on clarity and audience focus is one I clearly need to re-learn!The Expert Trap: How Your Knowledge Can Sabotage Your TrainingHow do you go from being a software engineer to an executive communication coach? For Justin Hunsaker, it was realizing that the through-line of all success is communication.Justin, the author of Presentation Pitfalls, joins us to discuss his upcoming presentation at the Training Conference and Expo: “The expert trap: how knowing too much can sabotage your training and presentations”.The “expert trap” is defined as when presenters focus on their expertise rather than what their audience needs to learn, resulting in a message that never completely gets conveyed. Justin emphasizes that in communication, your audience comes first.Spock vs. Kirk: The Emotional vs. Logical VoiceJustin suggests everyone has two voices in their head: the Mr. Spock (logical, sequential, data-oriented) and the Captain Kirk (emotional, storytelling). The expert trap is relying solely on Mr. Spock.To avoid this, Justin recommends:* Start with a story to get emotional engagement (Captain Kirk).* Introduce facts and logic (Mr. Spock) to provide credibility and confidence that you've done the expertise work.* End with the story.This approach works because people buy with emotion and justify with logic. Storytelling is much more primal to the human experience than a sequence of facts, making information stickier.The Signal to Noise Ratio: Cutting the FatExperts often feel everything they know is important and needs to be included, but this creates noise that distracts the audience from the three most important facts they should remember.Justin and his partner's four-part presentation framework includes Reduce Noise. If an expert can't explain when a piece of information will be valuable to the learner, it becomes noise that should be put in a handout or an appendix. He advises using the military's BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) framework to flip a history-lesson approach upside down and lead with the most important answer.Tools for the Modern CommunicatorJustin is excited about how AI (Large Language Models) can help experts communicate better. He suggests asking a large language model to generate 10 analogies for a complex topic, allowing the expert to quickly select the most resonant one for their audience.The Platinum Rule of PresentationsJustin teaches that presentation design is a function of your audience, your purpose, and your setting—the presenter is not included. This reinforces the number one rule of training: It's not about you.The 3F Framework for Instant PresenceAs a final tip, Justin shares the 3F Framework for leveling up your communication in just three minutes before any important conversation:* Facts: Write down the three facts you want your audience to remember.* Feelings: Write down the feelings you and your audience have going into the conversation.* Follow-ups: Write down what you promise to do after the conversation, and what you want your audience to promise to do.Key Takeaways* Audience First: The expert trap is focusing on what you know instead of what the audience needs to learn. The design of your training should focus on the audience, purpose, and setting—not the presenter.* Embrace Emotion: People make decisions based on emotion and justify them with logic. Start with a story (emotion/Captain Kirk) before providing data (logic/Mr. Spock).* Reduce Noise: Cut extraneous information that is only a “history lesson” of your journey. Use the BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) approach to prioritize the most important answer.* The 3F Level Up: Spend three minutes before any meeting writing down the three desired Facts, the related Feelings, and the planned Follow-ups to increase your leadership presence.Justin Hunsaker's Book and Contact:* Book: Presentation Pitfalls* Contact: Find Justin on LinkedIn (he's the one with the book in the background!).

On this episode of Star Trek Universe, Effie and Dave beam down to Sigma Iotia II — the planet that found a book about Chicago mobsters and decided to run with it! From fedoras to tommy guns, the Iotians built an entire society modeled after 1920s gangland culture, maman. Now the warring “bosses” want the Federation to supply them with heaters for their escalating turf war. It's one of the funniest and most iconic episodes of The Original Series, blending sci-fi satire with pulpy gangster style. Dave likes to think of it as “A Private Little Cosplay” — but you'll know it better as Star Trek 2x20, “A Piece of the Action.”
When a transporter malfunction strands an away team on a freezing planet, it also creates evil duplicates of Captain Kirk and a weird dog. But after naughty Kirk takes things too far with Yeoman Rand, nice Kirk is convinced to face the fear of recombination. Who is allowed to do father-in-law impressions? What's the best way to heal an open wound? When would Spock beat Kirk at 3D chess? It's the episode that's at the headwaters of a trope.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.

When JOE TORMOLEN has an itch he just can't resist, he scratches his way towards starting a full blown pandemic of space madness on the Enterprise. But after Lieutenant Riley takes control of the ship and finds a captive audience for his manosphere podcast, Kirk and Spock set out to find a way to regain command of the Enterprise. Who gets the first neck pinch? When is it appropriate to touch a stranger's love handles? Why even use tricorders?

Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds. New Paris is calling, but the crew has bigger problems: Spock is in command for the first time, and emotion is more contagious than the plague affecting the colony. Commissioner Ferris is at full annoying capacity, and tensions run high in Star Trek: The Original Series “The Galileo Seven.” Jim, A.Ron, and Talitha debate logic versus emotion while Jim lovingly caresses his miniature shuttle.

Star Trek. The final frontier. These are the podcasts of three enthusiastic nerds. In Star Trek: The Original Series “Balance of Terror,” Kirk faces a tense standoff with the Romulans while the Enterprise crew wrestles with Cold War paranoia and a little too much suspicion of Spock. Sure, the Romulan Commander looks remarkably like Spock's dad — but that's showbiz, Mister. Jim is back at the helm, and A.Ron and Talitha are at their stations, ready to follow their captain into the Neutral Zone. Beam your feedback to startrek@baldmove.com.
