Podcasts about star trek ii the wrath

Recorded Live at SDCC on July 23, 2026!The Star Trek films Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home all ask the question: How do you define victory in the no-win scenario? Lawyers face that question regularly when representing people in legal jeopardy. A panel of judges and lawyers examine legal issues from the "Genesis Trilogy," including the legality of the Genesis Device; whether the insanity defense applies to someone with a Ceti Alpha V eel wrapped around their cerebral cortex; whether the necessity defense applies to stealing the USS Enterprise; whether it is legal to park a Bird of Prey in Golden Gate Park; and whether you can violate the Marine Mammal Protection Act to save the planet. Featuring U.S. Magistrate Judge Steve Chu (United States District Court for the Southern District of California), U.S. Magistrate Judge Stan Boone (United States District Court for the Eastern District of California), Judge Danna Nicholas (San Diego County Superior Court), Christine Peek (McManis Faulkner), Mark Zaid (Mark S. Zaid, P.C.), and Joshua Gilliland (Best Best & Krieger LLP; co-founder of The Legal Geeks). Moderated by Katrina Wraight (Best Best & Krieger LLP).

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is regarded as one of the finest entries in the franchise, but even classics continue to evolve right up until release. This week on The Trek Files, Larry Nemecek welcomes authors and historians John and Maria Jose Tenuto to examine a fascinating production document: a March 23, 1982 retake script created just weeks before the film premiered. The pages reveal subtle but important changes to some of the movie's most memorable moments, from Kirk's first encounter with David Marcus to the famous "Remember" scene between Spock and McCoy. How much did Kirk originally know about his son? Who actually performed the mind-meld hand seen in the reshoot? And how did a handful of pickup shots help shape what would become one of Star Trek's greatest films? Along the way, John and Maria Jose pull back the curtain on Nicholas Meyer's production, Harve Bennett's stewardship of the franchise, and the extraordinary efficiency that turned a modestly-budgeted sequel into a science-fiction masterpiece.

Welcome to Hooked on Movies!!!  In this episode we are celebrating 60 years of Star Trek with our review of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Send us Fan MailEpisode 253 of Nerdery & Murdery is live!On the Nerdery side, Zig dives into one of the most beloved science fiction films ever made with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. From the legendary rivalry between Kirk and Khan to one of the most emotional moments in Star Trek history, we revisit the movie that helped define the franchise for generations.On the Murdery side, we continue the A–Z Across America series with Georgia and the case of Wayne Williams and the Atlanta Child Murders.Between 1979 and 1981, a series of disappearances and murders of young Black children and teenagers terrorized Atlanta. Wayne Williams was ultimately convicted of two murders, with investigators attributing more than twenty additional killings to him. Decades later, the case still raises debate and unanswered questions.A legendary sci fi showdown on one side. One of the most controversial criminal investigations in American history on the other.Just another week of the Nerd and the Murd.Support the show

For the second week of Pride Month we're tackling fanfiction, all the way back to the Kirk/Spock community that started it all. There's something for everyone this episode: the history and fundamentals of fanfic, the community and passion of the craft, the social implactions of ladies reading slash, and even how AI could effect the way we approach fanfic (clue: we don't like it!). Harry tells us about some strange and thought-provoking LOTR fics he's read, Payton gives us a lesson in cognitive poetics, and Millie gets passionate about sapphic media, all while Amy tangents us and keeps us on track in equal measure. This month we're reading Ida by Alison Evans. Grab your copy and read along with us ahead of book club on June 25!

Welcome to the Video Store Podcast.The balloons are up. The popcorn machine is running full blast. The sno-cone machine is free today.Here at the Video Store Podcast, we're celebrating 100 episodes!For this special anniversary, we wanted to do something worthy of the occasion. No clip-show flashbacks. No “greatest hits” countdown. Instead, we headed behind the counter and pulled out four of the biggest VHS releases of all time, the movies that didn't just dominate the box office, but helped define the home video revolution.These were the rentals everyone wanted. The tapes that were always checked out on Friday night. The films that transformed the VCR from a luxury item into the centerpiece of family entertainment.For our 100th episode, we're revisiting four legendary films that helped build video store culture as we knew it.Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)Directed by Nicholas Meyer, this sequel took the Star Trek franchise in a sharper, more dramatic direction. Admiral James T. Kirk faces his greatest adversary, Khan Noonien Singh, in a tense and deeply personal battle of strategy, revenge, and sacrifice. With Ricardo Montalbán delivering one of science fiction's most unforgettable villain performances, The Wrath of Khan remains one of the greatest sequels ever made.Its real legacy, however, may be what happened after theaters.Paramount made a bold gamble and priced The Wrath of Khan at just $39.95. The result shocked the industry. The tape became the highest-selling VHS release to date.That decision helped reshape home media forever and opened the door for the home video collecting boom of the 1980s.Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones burst onto screens in 1981 with whip-cracking charisma, globe-trotting action, and one of cinema's most instantly recognizable openings. From the giant rolling boulder to the snake-filled Well of Souls, Raiders delivered nonstop thrills while redefining what modern adventure filmmaking could be.When it arrived on VHS in late 1983, priced at the same consumer-friendly $39.95, Raiders generated massive pre-orders and sold more than a million copies within two years. It became one of the first films to demonstrate that a blockbuster could enjoy a hugely profitable second life in home video.It was the kind of movie families brought home again and again, the perfect repeat-viewing experience that made it a cornerstone of early home libraries.The Karate Kid (1984)The Karate Kid was one of those movies families rented over and over again until every line of dialogue was memorized. Released in 1984, the story of Daniel LaRusso, Mr. Miyagi, and the All-Valley Karate Tournament struck a perfect balance of heart, humor, action, and inspiration.On VHS, The Karate Kid became one of the defining family rentals of the decade.Unlike the spectacle-driven blockbusters on this list, its success proved that emotionally resonant, character-driven stories could thrive in the home video market. It became a staple of Friday night rentals, sleepovers, and repeat family viewings.Batman (1989)The summer of 1989 belonged to Batman.Tim Burton's Batman wasn't just a hit movie, it was a full-scale cultural event. Michael Keaton's brooding Dark Knight, Jack Nicholson's unforgettable Joker, Danny Elfman's thunderous score, and Gotham's gothic atmosphere transformed superhero cinema forever.It was darker, moodier, and more cinematic than anything audiences expected from a comic book adaptation.Then came the VHS release.Warner Bros. priced Batman at an aggressive $24.95, making it one of the most accessible blockbuster home video releases of its era. Stores stacked walls of black-and-gold VHS boxes. Cardboard standees filled lobbies. Television commercials hyped its release like another theatrical event.The theatrical release made Batman a cultural obsession. The VHS release made it part of everyday life.Thank You for 100 EpisodesFrom Star Trek II changing VHS pricing forever, to Raiders proving the power of repeat home viewing… from The Karate Kid becoming a family rental institution to Batman turning home video into a national event, these weren't just great movies.They were the tapes that defined Friday nights.They built home video libraries, filled video store shelves, and helped create the culture we celebrate every week here at the Video Store Podcast.To everyone who has listened, shared the show, and stopped by the store these past 100 episodes: thank you!Until next time — be kind, rewind.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

For our second Not-So-Terrible-2, we have the best turnaround for a sequel that Hollywood has ever seen: Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. After the boring failure that was Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Paramount pulled in someone who had never seen Star Trek to direct the film, Nicholas Meyer. Starring William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, George Takei, Walter Koenig, Nichelle Nichols, Bibi Besch, Merritt Butrick, Kirstie Alley, and an incredible performance from Ricardo Montalbán.

It is Jason's birthday month, so he is calling the shots. This week he picks Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and honestly… it might be the best decision he has ever made.We break down what makes Khan such an iconic villain, why this sequel hits harder than most, and how it still holds up today. Plus, Dave Mader and Graeme Pass join us to talk revenge, sacrifice, and that ending.This one is packed with great moments, big laughs, and some serious love for a sci fi classic.Please remember to like, comment, subscribe and click that notification bell for all our updates! It really helps us out!Starring: William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, , DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, Walter Koenig, George Takei, Nichelle Nichols, Bibi Besch, Merritt Butrick, Paul Winfield, Kirstie Alley & Ricardo MontalbánDirected By: Nicholas MeyerSynopsis: As Adm. James T. Kirk (William Shatner) and Capt. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) monitor trainees at Starfleet Academy, another vessel from the United Federation of Planets is about to try out the planet-creating Genesis Device in a seemingly deserted portion of space. In the process, two of Kirk's officers are captured by Khan (Ricardo Montalban), an enemy Kirk thought he'd never see again. Once more, Kirk takes the Enterprise's helm, where he meets Khan's ship in an intergalactic showdown.Watch LIVE on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/heydidyouseethisone ) and YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@HeyDidYouSeeThisOne ) every Thursday at 8 PM ESTWE HAVE MERCH - https://www.redbubble.com/people/HDYSTMerch/shop?asc=u & http://tee.pub/lic/GdSYxr8bhtY Website: https://www.ufpodcasts.com/hdysto Audio version of the show: Spotify - https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heydidyouseethisone Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hey-did-you-see-this-one/id1712934175YouTube Audio Podcast - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD6BOSx2RcKuP4TogMPKXRMCxqfh5k9IU&si=umIaVrghJdJEu2ARA MEMBER OF THE UNITED FEDERATION OF PODCASTSCheck us out online at: https://www.ufpodcasts.com/Main Intro & outro videos created by Steve Waters & Jason R PhillipsMain Intro and Outro Themes created by Joshua Howard - remixes by Jacob Hiltz & Jake ThurgoodLogo created by Jeff RobinsonWebsite by: https://www.facebook.com/worldmindinfoDirector Of Interstitials - Alex GowAdditional Intro and Outro song written and performed by Windom Earle – please follow at: (https://www.youtube.com/@windomearle)We use White Bat Audio for our pre-show– a user that creates DMCA free music for podcasters and YouTubers.

This week on Trek Tuesday, we're joined by actor Ike Eisenmann, a performer whose career spans beloved Disney classics and one of the most emotionally charged moments in Star Trek cinema. Most fans first discovered Ike as Tony in Escape to Witch Mountain and its sequel Return to Witch Mountain, where he shared the screen with legends like Christopher Lee and Bette Davis. In this episode, Ike opens up about what it was really like working with these iconic performers—offering candid, funny, and heartfelt stories from the set. But to Star Trek fans, Ike holds a special place in Federation history. He is Peter Preston, Scotty's nephew and the young engineering cadet whose sacrifice in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan remains one of the film's most powerful emotional beats. His performance helped shape the tone of the movie's final act, and his character continues to resonate with fans decades later. And now, Peter Preston has taken on a new life:

This next guests is a retired former actor, stunt performer, director and stunt coordinator that has worked on movies such as Swamp Thing, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, The Thing (1982), Ghostbusters (1984), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), The Hills Have Eyes Part II & many Others.This man is a legendary stunt man that is all about safety first, but always seemed to think 3 steps ahead!

Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise encounter an old revenge seeking foe, slimy earworms, surprise offspring, and middle age. Listen as we get geeky with Romulan ale, Kobyashi Maru tests, Captain Ahab analogies, and bagpipe space funerals on this week's exciting episode! Hosted on Acast.

Star Trek is what first introduced me to Shakespeare, and I wanted to visit the most Shakespearean of all Star Trek productions, which is Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. This film is Shakespearean in its structure, characters, plot, and themes, and can be a great way to introduce kids to some truly epic literature. … Continue reading "226 – Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is a Shakespearean Epic"

With “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” considered a costly, poorly received misfire, Paramount tapped veteran producer Harve Bennett and rising filmmaker Nicholas Meyer to refashion the sequel. Meyer's vision was clear: Hornblower in space. “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” a rousing, superbly crafted entertainment, ultimately saved the franchise and is considered one of the great science fiction films of its time. “Khan” director Nicholas Meyer joins Dennis and his brother Jim to discuss how Dickens and Melville were exactly what “Star Trek” needed. ‘From Hell's heart, I stab at thee! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!' Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Star Trek: Khan.Released from September to November 2025, Star Trek delved into the realm of a podcast audio drama with Star Trek: Khan.

In this episode of Twin Cities Trekkies, Wes reviews the audio drama and decides for himself whether or not Star Trek fans near and far should listen.

In this episode of the 80's Flick Flashback Podcast, host Tim Williams and co-hosts Ben Carpenter, Chris McMichen, and Nicholas Pepin dive into the classic comedy film 'The Naked Gun.' They discuss their first impressions, memorable scenes, character analyses, and the film's impact on comedy. The conversation also touches on trivia, behind-the-scenes insights, and the film's rewatchability. The hosts share their thoughts on the reboot and reflect on the legacy of the film, highlighting its humor and iconic moments.Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:The device that compelled characters to accept commands to kill someone is similar to what the parasitic life forms in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" did.Leslie Nielsen's line about shooting the Shakespeare in the Park performers is a close parody of a line Clint Eastwood said about shooting a rapist in "Dirty Harry".In 1988, The Naked Gun, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and A Fish Called Wanda formed an accidental "steamroller trilogy." Despite their differences, all three classic comedies released that year feature a character getting flattened by a steamroller.Sources:Wikipedia, IMDBhttps://www.mentalfloss.com/article/71895/18-fun-facts-about-naked-gunhttps://www.watchmojo.com/articles/top-10-hilarious-facts-about-the-naked-gun-1988Some sections were composed by ChatGPTWe'd love to hear your thoughts on our podcast!

The Wreath of Khan rolls on with part 3 of 4, as Scott and Jason spend some time discussing one of their favorite movies, “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” after having followed Khan from “Space Seed” through “Star Trek: Khan.” We don’t know how many times we can say that we love this movie, but we tried and it seems like we could do it forever. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

For their 219th episode, two ensign film critics, two battle-tested dads, and two admiral-ranked teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, know damn well that the needs of the many outweigh the need of the few. They put their show through their own Kobayashi Maru because disliking the 1982 classic "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" is a no-win situation to anyone who tries.  That means our hosts past with flying colors and put forth a great show of celebration that could regrow and podcast-listening ear like a Genesis missle. Come learn more and stay for the mutual love and respect that fun movies encapsulate.

Send us a textThis week on Fabulous Film and Friends I'm doing something a little different and simply giving thoughts on a screening I attended of Star Trek II -The Wrath of Khan with William Shatner Live, a screening I was eagerly looking forward to because a) Wrath of Khan is one of my all-time favorite movies and b) William Shatner is my favorite actor of all time. Why is Star Trek II the best Star Trek film?Is Shatner worth seeing live?Find out!Watch  the video podcast on youtube:https://youtu.be/I9NU1kiT_vw

Das Finale unserer trilogischen Besprechung des Khan-Podcast-Hörspiels – Teil 1 und Teil 2 sind vor sechs beziehungsweise drei Wochen erschienen – nun heißt es Abschied nehmen von Ceti Alpha V (nicht VI) mit den Episoden: I Am Marla, Original Sin & Eternity's Face. Alles läuft womöglich etwas anders, als man es sich nach dem Anschauen von "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" bislang vorgestellt hatte. Erwartbar tragisch, ja, aber mit einem Minimum an ekelhaften Aalen, dafür umso mehr Belmondos. Am Ende stehen eine Beinahe-Überraschung und ein ungewohnt großherziger Tuvok.

Botany Bay! Als die Entwicklung von "Star Trek: Khan" (damals noch "Ceti Alpha V") unter Nicholas Meyer begann, war Trek am Dienstag noch Quark im Schaufenster. Nun endlich ist die Miniseries fertig, die das narrative Loch zwischen "Space Seed" und "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" stopft – und sie ist ein Podcast! Simon & Sebastian rollen die epische Produktionshistorie auf, besprechen nach traditioneller TaD-Art ihr erstes Hörspiel und – oho! – brandneues Star Trek. Khans erste Tage im Exil erzählen die Episoden "Paradise", "Scheherazade" & "Do Your Worst". Fortsetzung folgt in drei Wochen.

Whether or not you're a Sherlockian, whether or not you believe that Arthur Conan Doyle was the literary agent for Holmes and Watson and not the author of fantastical tales, you might be curious to learn that there's a new mysterious Sherlock Holmes tale to untangle. Author, screenwriter, and director Nicholas Meyer would like to share that tale in his book, Sherlock Holmes and The Real Thing. Picture the setting: London, 189–. The great city is brought to a standstill by a series of blizzards, and Sherlock Holmes is bored to distraction. It would take a miracle to bring a case to the detective's door. . . But next thing you know, there are several corpses—and Holmes and his biographer, John H. Watson, MD, find themselves drawn into one of the most bizarre cases of the great detective's career: the cutthroat world of big Art, where trickery and deceit abound. Like any good Sherlock Holmes story, there seem to be more questions than answers. What makes a work of art worth killing for? Is it the artist, his mistress, his dealer, or his blackmailer? Who are the perpetrators? The accomplices? The victims? And just who is Juliet Packwood, with whom Watson has become infatuated? Oh, and there's one other problem: Is this a genuine Holmes case or a clever forgery? Is this the real thing? Nicholas Meyer spins a tale for new and seasoned Sherlockians alike. Nicholas Meyer is the “editor” of several Watson manuscripts, including The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, which spent forty weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. His screenplay of the film received an Oscar nomination. His film credits include writing and directing Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. He wrote and directed Time After Time, co-created Medici: Masters of Florence, and directed The Day After, about nuclear war that attracted the largest audience ever for a television movie. George Meyer wrote for Late Night with David Letterman, Saturday Night Live, and The Simpsons. An Eagle Scout, he practices yoga and meditation and supports frog and turtle conservation. His favorite Grateful Dead song is “Unbroken Chain.” Buy the Book Sherlock Holmes and the Real Thing Third Place Books

Celluloid Heroes: Episode 9Film: Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)The legendary summer of 1982 saw the release of many classics of sci-fi, fantasy, and overall kick-butt filmmaking. From Tron to The Road Warrior, Poltergeist to Blade Runner, the local cinema offered seemingly infinite choice But there was one film that cut very deeply for our host and in this episode of Celluloid Heroes he takes you on a journey to explore new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.

“Pooh, pooh! Forgery.” [SCAN]  Nicholas Meyer, BSI ("A Fine Morocco Case") is an accomplished storyteller who has made a mark in both the literary and film worlds. He's best known for his 1974 best-selling novel, , which revitalized Sherlock Holmes for a new generation of readers. His other Holmes novels, including , , , and , and have cemented his place as a celebrated perpetuator of Watson's reports.  Beyond his literary achievements, Nick is a prolific screenwriter and director, credited with directing the iconic films Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. He also directed the landmark television movie The Day After, which remains one of the most-watched television films ever made. Nick's latest novel is . In the book, Holmes and Watson are drawn into a bizarre and deadly case set in the cutthroat world of art. The mystery begins with a seemingly mundane complaint from a landlady about her artist tenant, but quickly escalates as corpses begin to appear. The pair navigate a fascinating cast of characters — including an artist, his mistress, and his dealer — to discover what makes a work of art worth killing for.  Join our wide-ranging discussion, which touches, in this age of artificial intelligence, on what makes one work genuine and another just a clever forgery. Then we look ahead to Sherlockian gatherings for the last half of October in "The Learned Societies" segment. Madeline Quiñones is back with "A Chance of Listening," bringing us an introduction to her own show, Dynamics of a Podcast, the only podcast dedicated to Professor James Moriarty, archnemesis of Sherlock Holmes.

“My mind to your mind. My thoughts to your thoughts…”Vulcans right before they guess your phone password.We've all seen them do it. A Vulcan gets cozy with an individual, gently places a perfectly-manicured and long-fingered hand along their face, gets that distant look in their eye, and suddenly their minds are one. No, it's not a clever party trick, it's an incredibly useful information gathering tool, as well as an intimate (even emotional) act that Vulcans don't take lightly and thus only deploy in circumstances that absolutely demand it. Yes, we're talking about the Vulcan Mind Meld this week! And despite being one of the most famous pieces of Star Trek lore there is surprisingly (or perhaps thankfully) little on screen explanation of it. But explaining how a mind meld may or may not work requires us to dig into how brains actually conjure up and store things like memories, the electrical impulses that make up thoughts, and actual real world non-verbal communication. There are also some fascinating pieces of Star Trek history to be uncovered in our quest to determine not just the “how” of this famed plot and story device, but the “why” of how it came to be. Our hosts, Dr. Hakeem Oluseyi and Tamara Krinsky have once again performed a mind meld of their own to bring you the very best breakdown of sci-fi and pop culture you're going to find in this quadrant.Check out the latest episode of Does it Fly? right here if you don't believe us!https://youtu.be/YllWLbrhKP0?si=xJxH6Gbb2mUVnbUdFURTHER VIEWINGDespite being one of the most famous bits of Star Trek lore, the Vulcan Mind Meld is something that's only been used relatively sparingly on screen. You probably know the broad strokes of what it is and what it's supposed to do, but here are the specific episodes and moments we used for reference in this episode:Star Trek season 1 episode 9 - “Dagger of the Mind”Star Trek: The Next Generation season 3 episode 23 - “Sarek”Star Trek: Voyager season 1 episode 8 - “Ex Post Facto”Star Trek: Voyager season 2 episode 16 - “Meld”Star Trek: Enterprise season 1 episode 17 - “Fusion”FURTHER READINGDo you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! What is a Mind?Oh no, are we getting all philosophical again like we did in our recent Freaky Friday episode? Well…maybe not as much this time. In fact, to prove it, here is an exceedingly scientific breakdown of what makes up the brain itself: neurons and how they work! See also: the concept of “theory of mind” which we have also discussed recently!Brain Energy SignalsIn order to detect what a brain is thinking, you need to read the signals…which may be electrical in nature but come in units of measure we aren't used to dealing with!Mirror NeuronsNo, not neurons that make you behave like your evil double from a parallel universe (sorry, this is a Star Trek episode, so couldn't resist), these are far more practical. And in a way, it's a form of mind meld!Technological Mind MeldsThe scientific study that Hakeem references where scientists used technology to essentially create a mind meld was captured on video here.Where are Memories Stored in the Brain?In order to access the thoughts of another, they have to theoretically be stored somewhere, right? All this and more answered here.Behind the Scenes! If you want to go deeper into Tamara's explanations about how the Mind Meld came to be, we always recommend These are the Voyages, TOS Season One by Marc Cushman and Susan Osborne and The Fifty-Year Mission: The Complete, Uncensored, Unauthorized Oral History of Star Trek - The First 25 Years by Ed Gross and Mark A. Altman.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?This ain't our first rodeo (in this case, “rodeo” means “exploration of concepts from Star Trek)! Our first episode ever took on the transporter and you can watch that right here.We also took a closer look at the Genesis Device from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

We discuss the legal and practical implications of such a rule change on climate policy and industry here in the Houston area.Then, we learn how zoning shapes cities from Sara Bronin, who grew up in Houston -- a city famous for having no zoning. That's the subject of her book, Key to the City.And we visit the Genuine Cup, a soccer tournament happening this week in Houston for athletes with intellectual and developmental disabilities on teams from all over the world.

Star Trek II The Wrath of Kahn

In this intergalactic episode of Backstage Pass with Gentry Thomas, we’re joined by the one and only William Shatner—legendary actor, storyteller, and the man who brought Captain James T. Kirk to life. Shatner is on tour with a special live event that follows screenings of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, where he shares never-before-heard stories from the bridge and beyond.Find tour dates and tickets at WilliamShatnerTour.com In this candid conversation, Shatner dives into what made Wrath of Khan such a defining entry in the Star Trek franchise and reflects on the legacy of Captain Kirk—both the character and the mythos that surrounds him. He also opens up about some of his more unconventional opinions, including his musings on flat Earth theories, and how curiosity—not conformity—has always driven him. From Hollywood to the Final Frontier, this is William Shatner as you’ve never heard him before—only on Backstage Pass with Gentry Thomas.
