Happy 60th anniversary!

This week we wanted to explore 1980s fantasy. But sometimes it's hard to recover nostalgia when present-day villains keep killing our favorite heroes. Last week, the BBC announced Doctor Who is dead. For now. Rest in peace, Time Lord. Also these days, Stargate fans are rallying to hold Amazon to its original promises of restoring that universe with original creators, and stop the ‘Zon from some “modern audience” reboot. For these and fans of other Star franchises, how do we mourn? Episode sponsors Twist of Time by Tricia Goyer and Nathan Goyer Realm Makers 2026 Conference & Expo Author Update from Author Media Descendant Publishing Mission update New at Lorehaven: new review, Maxine Justice: Public Offender Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild Quotes and notes “June 3, 2026: Stargate cancelled, for the fourth and likely final time,” Joseph Mallozzi’s Weblog, June 3, 2026 “June 6, 2026: Do Fans Matter?”, Joseph Mallozzi’s Weblog, June 6, 2026 “Why Amazon canceling the new Stargate series is a mistake – and fans are trying to tell them,” Trent Moore at Static on the TV, June 6, 2026 “Former ‘Dr. Who’ showrunner Russell T. Davies says women and transvestites should be over-represented in creative writing until ‘things are balanced,’ even if it takes 100 years.” See this June 10 X.com post @BreitbartNews with video of original Davies interview. “Save Stargate with Martin Gero,” Change.org petition “Lego’s latest design research: what girls want,” Reena Jana at ZDNet.com, Dec. 19, 2011 1. Doctor Who destroyed by Russell T. Davies BBC, June 10: “BBC cancels Doctor Who Christmas special and Russell T Davies announces exit,” absolutely predictable end. Back in 2005, Davies revived Doctor Who serials on television. The series had “politically correct” moments, yet great writing. Writer Steven Moffat took over. The show got big. Then declined. In the late 2010s, political leftists demanded Doctor Who A lackluster showrunner took over. Fans rejected a gender-swap. Davies returned a political omnicause monster. He killed the Doctor. 2. Amazon rejects a fan-centered Stargate Variety, June 2: “‘Stargate' TV Series From Martin Gero Not Moving Forward at Amazon (EXCLUSIVE),” and fans were outraged. Original creators were on board, per the Nov. 2025 announcement. Now they join fans opposing this seeming ridiculous double-back. Amazon may want a “modern audience” show, not original fans. This is a universe more impossible than any sci-fi scenario. That's not how you grow a fanbase ever. True fans will grow it. Stephen finds this similar to #ReleaseTheSnyderCut. He's drawn in! 3. Star Trek/Wars still struggle to survive We saved this for last because fans everywhere rightly lament. Since our last episode on the topic, we've seen major updates. Mandalorian and Grogu bombed. Starfleet Academy was axed. Technically both franchises flounder ahead with illusory intent. Kathleen Kennedy is finally leaving Lucasfilm, owned by Disney. Star Trek showrunner Robert Kurtzman is likely next to go. Corporations aren't evil. But inhuman corporatism is parasitic. This “mind of metal and wheels” has ruined stories for Christians. But now the Christians are improving. These stories are decaying. We really can't pretend “popular culture” is just neutral ground. Activists do want to kill these stories and replace them with others. To speak truth, we should acknowledge the justifiable backlash. And then we mourn their deaths. But not as those without hope. After all, the results could be worse. What if the hijacking worked? Even non-Christian fans saw through the trick. And they said no. The “market” did its job, perhaps thanks to God's common grace. It's nearly like the Law rightly punishing violators. It is necessary. Let them suffer the results. Maybe repent. But retreat in disgrace. And if possible, may better storytellers rise up to restore worlds. Until then, let great story-worlds like Doctor Who rest in peace. Com station Top question for listeners How do you grieve the loss of fantastical stories you once loved? Next on Fantastical Truth One of the sillier myths in our culture is that “Most men don't read.” Sometimes this is a real trend. Other times it's wishful thinking because some creators don't want to make stories that celebrate boys and men. Still, we can look to fathers and mentors to train younger men, not just to love truth, but to love fantastical stories that honor truth. Just in time for the next stage of the Lightraiders tabletop game system, pilot and author James R. Hannibal returns to the studio to help fight dragons.

Christian Ashley and Justin Coleman dive into the heart of Starfleet Academy in this episode, exploring how it shapes the heroes of the Federation across various Star Trek series. They kick things off by dissecting the Academy's role not just as a training ground for future officers, but as a crucible for character development, cultivating virtues like courage and diplomacy that are essential for leadership in space. The duo reflects on iconic characters like Kirk and Picard, highlighting how their experiences at the Academy molded their decision-making and ethical frameworks. With a mix of witty banter and insightful commentary, they discuss the influence of lesser-known figures like Boothby, the Academy's gardener, who embodies mentorship and support in ways that resonate deeply with the cadets. Listeners will get a fresh perspective on the interplay of military and exploratory values within Starfleet, alongside a few laughs, as they navigate the complexities of what it truly means to be a part of this iconic organization. The captivating dialogue between Christian Ashley and Justin Coleman in this episode of Systematic Geekology delves into the profound impact of Starfleet Academy on the Star Trek narrative and its characters. The episode opens with an entertaining exchange about their current geeky obsessions, lightening the mood and showcasing their infectious camaraderie. Justin eloquently posits that Starfleet Academy is not merely a training ground for starship pilots and scientists, but a crucible for character formation, instilling virtues such as responsibility, diplomacy, and the spirit of exploration in its cadets. He argues that the Academy's teachings prepare individuals to face ethical dilemmas that arise in the complex interplay of interstellar politics, asserting that these lessons resonate throughout the series, particularly in the lives of iconic characters. Throughout their discussion, Christian and Justin share personal anecdotes that highlight their deep connection to Star Trek, revealing how the series has shaped their understanding of leadership and morality. They reflect on the ways in which characters like Kirk and Picard embody the principles taught at the Academy, with Kirk's rebellious nature and Picard's ethical steadfastness serving as examples of how their backgrounds influence their decision-making. The hosts also emphasize the role of mentorship, using the character Boothby to illustrate how seemingly minor figures can have a significant impact on the lives of future leaders. This exploration of mentorship adds a rich layer to their analysis, reinforcing the idea that true leadership is about nurturing others and fostering growth. As the episode progresses, they tackle the Kobayashi Maru, the infamous no-win scenario that tests cadets' character under pressure. Justin explains its purpose in revealing how individuals confront failure and make choices in dire circumstances, while Christian considers how modern interpretations of the test could reflect today's complexities in interstellar relations. Their light-hearted banter enlivens the conversation, making philosophical concepts engaging and thought-provoking. This episode serves as a reminder of Star Trek's enduring legacy, highlighting its commitment to exploring fundamental human truths through the lens of science fiction and encouraging listeners to reflect on their own values in the face of adversity.Takeaways:Starfleet Academy is not just a school, but a place that shapes the virtues of curiosity, courage, and responsibility essential for future officers in Starfleet.Christian and Justin dive deep into how the Academy has influenced iconic characters like Kirk and Picard, exploring their complex moral dilemmas and growth.The hosts emphasize the importance of mentorship, as showcased by characters like Boothby, who, despite being a gardener, plays a pivotal role in shaping future leaders.The Kobayashi Maru test serves as a crucial metaphor for character development, revealing how individuals respond to pressure and the concept of no-win scenarios in leadership.In discussing the evolution of Starfleet Academy, they highlight how it encourages inclusivity among diverse species, reflecting the core principles of the Federation.The episode wraps up with a humorous take on how modern iterations of the Kobayashi Maru could be revamped to reflect current alliances and challenges in the Star Trek universe..Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of our annual theme for 2026 ("The Faces Behind Us") series:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/dd903597-98be-49ed-998c-5cdaf73b6af4.Hear more of our Star Trek episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/eaa2b4b8-b1cc-4a59-8885-489097aa423e.Check out other episodes with Christian:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/ebf4b064-0672-47dd-b5a3-0fff5f11b54c.Check out other episodes with Justin:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/f7586782-3eb9-4d2b-84ce-54cae90443d0Mentioned in this episode:Systematic GeekologyOur show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective.

Star Trek wird dieses Jahr 60, doch zu feiern gibt es wenig. Obwohl Strange New Worlds und Starfleet Academy noch bis 2027 laufen, steckt das legendäre Sci-Fi-Franchise schon jetzt in der Krise. Neue Staffeln sind schon abgedreht und aktuell befindet sich erstmals seit einem Jahrzehnt kein Star Trek-Projekt mehr in Produktion.

FedCon 2026 – unser Rückblick auf die Starfleet-Academy-Gäste! In dieser Folge sprechen wir nicht über die komplette FedCon, sondern gezielt über die Gäste aus Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. Wir schauen auf Panels, Bühnenmomente, Cast-Chemie, Publikumsreaktionen und natürlich auf all die kleinen Andeutungen, aus denen man mit genug Star-Trek-Wahnsinn ganze Theorien bauen kann. Mit dabei: Zoë Steiner, Karim Diané, Kerrice Brooks, Bella Shepard und George Hawkins – und unsere Frage, was diese FedCon-Auftritte über die neue Generation von Star Trek erzählen. War da schon ein Blick auf die Zukunft der Serie? Haben die Gäste mehr verraten, als sie wollten? Oder haben wir einfach wieder viel zu viele Gedanken zu sehr kleinen Gesichtsausdrücken? Die Antwort lautet vermutlich: ja. #FedCon2026 #StarfleetAcademy #StarTrek #DiscoveryPanel #StarTrekPodcast

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-04-2026: A caller with previously normal platelets now bouncing between 40-60 asks whether to accept her doctor's recommendation of high-dose dexamethasone. Dr. Dawn suggests checking homocysteine and methylmalonic acid for hidden B12 issues, getting an ultrasound to rule out splenic sequestration, and confirming actual autoimmune antibody testing before committing to steroids. Researchers invented a fake disease called "Bixonimania" (periorbital hyperpigmentation supposedly caused by blue light) with obvious tells including a fictional Asteria Horizon University and Starfleet Academy acknowledgment. By 2026, AI chatbots were routinely describing it as real, and three Indian researchers even cited the fake preprint in a peer-reviewed paper that was subsequently retracted. A 75-year-old caller asks about intermittent fasting patterns. Dr. Dawn advises against fasting longer than 24 hours after age 75 due to muscle catabolism, and recommends time-restricted eating instead—starting with protein at 10am to prevent muscle breakdown. For rebuilding lost muscle she prescribes resistance bands, 30g protein including 5g branched-chain amino acids before exercise, and total daily protein matching one's age in grams. A male caller with a T-score of -4.0 on DEXA (diagnostic of severe osteoporosis) asks about pulsed electromagnetic frequency therapy for his hip. Dr. Dawn explains bone's piezoelectric properties mean that compression and electrical stimulation both activate osteoblasts. She recommends checking parathyroid hormone (tumors cause silent calcium loss), notes that vitamin D above 10,000 IU daily can paradoxically activate osteoclasts and worsen osteoporosis. She discusses how decades of proton pump inhibitor use cause achlorhydria leading to both B12 deficiency (elevated MCV) and calcium malabsorption. The same caller asks whether AI has genuine empathy after seeing Claude express regret about military use, and Dr. Dawn explains AI is a statistical mirror — the illusion of empathy from frequency-based word selection trained on human text, not genuine feeling. Daraxonrasib, an oral monoclonal drug from Revolution Medicines, doubled survival time in metastatic pancreatic cancer trials from 7 to 13 months, prompting FDA expanded access. Dr. Dawn explains KRAS—the long-elusive target with no binding pockets—was finally tackled using Gregory Verdine's "molecular glue" approach, where small molecules first attach to bystander proteins to create complexes capable of binding KRAS. A high school in San Francisco has seen seven active and 241 latent TB cases since November 2025, with 18% of the school community infected. Dr. Dawn notes California reached a 12-year high of 2,150 TB cases in 2025, and connects the unusually high latent-infection rate to recent Medi-Cal cuts and immigration-related healthcare avoidance. She argues healthcare access for vulnerable populations is a practical disease-prevention measure.

The Star Trek universe continues to boldly go where no series has gone before with Starfleet Academy, the 12th live-action entry in the iconic franchise. In this episode, we explore Season 1, discussing the new generation of cadets, the challenges and mysteries they face, and how the series connects to Star Trek's rich legacy while charting its own course for the future.

TrekCore is excited to announce the launch of a second podcast to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Star Trek – Warp Factor 5: A Star Trek Rewatch Podcast. Launching alongside our longrunning WeeklyTrek news podcast, every two weeks on Thursdays host Alex Perry will be joined by a guest to discuss and rate the next five episodes of Star Trek in in-universe chronological order beginning with Star Trek: Enterprise and traveling forward from there. In each episode, Alex and his guest will discuss and rate five episodes of Star Trek, and then pick from across those five episodes the Best Series Regular Performance, Best Guest Performance, Best Production Design Element, Best Quiet Moment, and Best Loud Moment. They'll also discuss how these five episodes contribute to the larger Star Trek narrative across more than 900 episodes, and share memories of the first time they watched the episodes – was it live on UPN? BBC 2? WPIX Channel 11? Sky One? CIC VHS tapes? DVD? Netflix? Paramount+? There are two things that make Warp Factor 5 distinct from most Star Trek rewatch podcasts: discussing five episodes at a time, and moving through the franchise in in-universe chronological order. Examining five episodes at a time gives space to compare episodes in blocks, examining in greater detail differences in character and themes. And beginning with Enterprise and moving in in-universe chronological order gives a new way to enjoy the Star Trek story, as an inter-connected narrative spanning 60 years of real history and over one thousand years of narrative history.  The show will begin with Enterprise, followed by Discovery's first two seasons, Strange New Worlds, Star Trek, The Animated Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Lower Decks, Prodigy, Picard, Discovery's last three seasons, and Starfleet Academy. Where will the Kelvin Timeline movies fall? What about the Short Treks? The TNG movies? How will you handle the period during the 1990s when two Star Trek shows were on at once? You'll just have to listen to find out! This is a rewatch podcast, and we'll be discussing full spoilers for past and future Star Trek as we make our way through the shows. But you don't have to be a Star Trek expert to enjoy Warp Factor 5. Each episode discussion will include a synopsis of the episode we're talking about to jog your memory, with plenty of audio clips from the episodes so you can hear for yourself the moments that are being discussed. If you've always had the desire (like Alex has!) to rate every episode of Star Trek and figure out which episodes are your favorites (or least favorite!), we hope you'll join us at home, watch the episodes with us, and submit your ratings. Also make sure to let us know your picks for Best Series Regular, Best Guest Performance, Best Production Design Element, Best Quiet Moment, and Best Loud Moment! Alex will be gathering all the ratings and feedback received and at the end of each season will have a special episode discussing feedback and the final definitive ranking of that season's episodes.  Warp Factor Five is available now on all your podcast platforms so make sure to subscribe to ensure that you don't miss an episode. The first episode of the show, covering the Star Trek: Enterprise season one episodes "Broken Bow," "Fight or Flight," "Strange New World," "Unexpected," and "Terra Nova," will debut on Thursday, June 18.

FedCon 34, Tag 3: Wir blicken zurück auf Zoë Steiners, George Hawkins' und Karim Dianés Panel vom Samstag – und auf die großen Gruppenpanels von Strange New Worlds und Starfleet Academy am Sonntag. Außerdem sprechen wir über unsere eigene Talkshow „Warum wir Star Trek brauchen!“: ein Live-Podcast über Haltung, Hoffnung, Zukunft, Werte und die Frage, warum dieses Franchise nach fast 60 Jahren immer noch mehr kann als hübsche Raumschiffe mit dramatischer Beleuchtung. Natürlich geht es auch um den tragischen Ausfall von Kerrice Brooks, deren FedCon-Auftritt leider am galaktisch banalsten aller Gegner scheiterte: verlorenem Gepäck. Star Trek erzählt von Subraumkommunikation, Transportern und Warpantrieb – und trotzdem gewinnt am Ende manchmal der Flughafen. Faszinierend. Aber nicht gut. Ein Rückblick auf den letzten FedCon-Tag: emotional, chaotisch, liebevoll und mit sehr viel Sternenflottenherz. #FedCon34 #FedCon2026 #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #StarfleetAcademy #ZoeSteiner #GeorgeHawkins #KarimDiane #KerriceBrooks #DiscoveryPanel #WarumWirStarTrekBrauchen #StarTrekPodcast

FedCon 34, Tag 2: Wir blicken zurück auf Panels mit Babs Olusanmokun, Bella Shepard und Paul Wesley – und natürlich auf unsere eigene Star-Trek-Quizshow. Ja, richtig gelesen: Wir waren nicht nur im Publikum, wir standen auch selbst auf der Bühne. Es gab Fragen, Punkte, Spannung, Publikum, akute Sternenflottengefühle und vermutlich mindestens einen Moment, in dem irgendwo eine Regelkommission innerlich geweint hat. Also eigentlich: perfekte Bedingungen. Bei Zoë Steiner und Karim Diané waren wir auch – darüber sprechen wir aber erst morgen. Heute geht es um Tag 2, um Panels, Con-Vibe, Strange-New-Worlds-Energie, Starfleet-Academy-Vorfreude und die Frage, wie man nach so einem Tag eigentlich noch schlafen soll, ohne dass im Kopf weiter ein Buzzer läuft. #FedCon34 #FedCon2026 #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #StarfleetAcademy #BabsOlusanmokun #BellaShepard #PaulWesley #DiscoveryPanel #StarTrekQuiz #StarTrekPodcast

FedCon 34, Tag 1: Wir sind angekommen, leicht reizüberflutet, sehr glücklich und irgendwo zwischen Opening Ceremony, Panel-Marathon und Föderationsgefühlen verloren gegangen. In dieser Folge blicken wir auf den ersten Tag der FedCon 34 im Maritim Hotel Bonn zurück: Panels mit Tim Russ, Jess Bush, Sandro Rosta, Ethan Peck und Martin Quinn, die Opening Ceremony und die Talkshow „60 Jahre Star Trek“. Kurz gesagt: sehr viel Star Trek, sehr viel Herz, sehr viel „Ich wollte nur kurz gucken und jetzt ist mein Tag komplett eskaliert“. Wir sprechen über den besonderen FedCon-Vibe, über Strange-New-Worlds-Momente, Starfleet-Academy-Neugier, Tuvok-Würde, Scotty-Charme und darüber, warum Star Trek nach 60 Jahren immer noch nicht einfach ein Franchise ist, sondern ein ziemlich wirksames Gegenmittel gegen Weltuntergangsstimmung mit schlechter Beleuchtung. #FedCon34 #FedCon2026 #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #StarfleetAcademy #TimRuss #JessBush #EthanPeck #MartinQuinn #SandroRosta #DiscoveryPanel #StarTrekPodcast

Star Trek is doubling down on the Gen Z YA gay romance for WEBTOON. And these stories are reportedly CANON, according to Paramount. Yes, coming soon is a DS9 story in which two young gay dudes and a pug plan a talent show on the station. Also the power of friendship. No, we're serious.

The Enterprise is on its way to help Tagra IV, a planet in the midst of an ecological crisis. As part of the mission, they take on an intern, one Amanda Rogers, a plucky young woman with dreams of attending Starfleet Academy. All seems well until odd moments of danger erupt! We're talking a barrel falling towards Riker - - those damned barrels are a menace!--and Holy Heck! A flippin warp core breach! Geordi and Data race to eject the core, but it explodes, threatening to destroy the ship! Luckly, Amanda Rogers is on the scene and somehow manages to stop the explosion and restore the core to normal. The crew are at a loss to explain this miracle until our good friend Q pops in. According to Q, Amanda just might be a member of the Q continuum, and he aims to find out. Q explains that if Amanda is Q, she needs to join the continuum, but Bev ain't having it. Picard agrees to allow Q to train Amanda in her powers, but little does he know that Q is under orders to execute Amanda if she doesn't measure up. Will Q take the life of a promising young intern? Will Riker take her on a date? Will the show bring us more puppies? Find out in this exciting episode of ST:TNGeez, Not Another Star Trek Podcast!Even more available at: https://tngeez.com

What made you the kind of person who questions things? Returning guest Rob McKenzie joins Matthew to trace the science fiction and fantasy that quietly shaped his ethics, and the conversation turns out to be about a lot more than books.They start with Isaac Asimov: the pacifism baked into “Foundation,” the Three Laws of Robotics as a moral framework, and the surprisingly dark places minimizing-harm logic can lead. Along the way Rob makes the case that Pratchett's trolls, who get smarter in cold temperatures, say something important about judging minds by the wrong standard. From there it opens up into righteous humanism, the ethics of shoplifting diapers, Chesterton's fence, and what the cancellation of “Starfleet Academy” says about who gets to tell challenging stories right now.At the center of all of it is a question worth sitting with: how much of what we take for granted is just a rule we forgot to ask about?Connect with Rob: Good Luck High Five (YouTube)**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Episode 12: The Trial Series What does a dishonorable discharge look like in Starfleet? Why is Star Trek obsessed with romantic partners being part of trials? How did Batel know that Una was an Illyrian? How were La'an and M'Benga able to lie on the stand? Where does this rank with the other trial episodes in Trek? Join Ashlyn, Rhianna, and Chris Garis as we discuss the only Trial episode in Strange New Worlds.

M90 is here, cadets, and Talking Trek is rolling straight into Starfleet Academy with a full Talking in Carz breakdown of the new patch. DJz, Griffin, Tarpy, Jules Verne, and the crew unpack the new Academy loop, Duo Wave Defense, critical damage mitigation, Academy drones, the new building, refinery currencies, laurels, and the first wave of new officers. We also dig into the bigger M90 economy changes, including battle pass updates, the 27-day arc format, Boldly Go rewards, desolate rod sourcing, officer depot token changes, Paragon and Cadre bundles, alliance tournament updates, new artifacts, ship refits, and the long-awaited arrival of G5 scrapping. There's a lot in this patch, some of it exciting, some of it suspiciously spreadsheet-shaped, and some of it wearing a cadet uniform while stealing your lunch money. Topics include: Starfleet Academy loop, Duo Wave Defense, critical damage mitigation, Academy drones, STFC.phd battle log parsing, engineering credits, science credits, command credits, laurels, new Academy officers, Genesis outpost loot, battle pass changes, Boldly Go, officer depot tokens, Paragon and Cadre bundles, Emerald Chain progression, alliance tournaments, simulacrum refits, and G5 scrapping timers.   00:51 Show open and welcome to Talking in Carz 02:23 Welcome to Starfleet Academy, cadets 03:12 The new Starfleet Academy loop begins 04:37 Academy drones, crit chance, and crit damage explained 05:24 Critical damage mitigation enters the game 07:45 Battle logs, STFC.phd, and tracking the new mechanic 08:52 Why the Academy building matters early 10:03 Training merits, engineering credits, and the refinery loop 11:34 The 60-second currency recap 12:27 Laurels become the new officer promotion currency 13:17 Duo Wave Defense strategy and why waiting may be smart 15:39 New Academy officers: Doctor, Jahl of Myr, and Genesis 17:04 Genesis and the big outpost plunder loot boost 20:46 The early concern: is the new loop too siloed? 23:00 Battle pass and live ops changes for the 27-day arc 24:03 Desolate rods, Boldly Go, and flash pass replacement sourcing 26:58 Community data needed for battle pass reward comparisons 28:49 Officer depot token store changes and 30-day warning 31:03 Paragon and Cadre officer sourcing bundles 32:30 New artifacts: Emerald Chain helm and G7 parts efficiency 34:24 Emerald Chain progression and alliance tournament XP 36:23 Surprise: two alliance tournament runs this month 39:18 Titles, cosmetics, and the fun side of the arc 40:15 Choice token concerns and alliance tournament task changes 42:18 New simulacrum refits and Academy drone mitigation 43:42 G5 scrapping timers, exocomp boost, and realistic expectations 47:36 When to use the G5 scrapping exocomp 48:35 Wrap-up and tonight's Talking Trek lab preview

There's a rumor that Netflix and Paramount were talking about Starfleet Academy getting picked up by the Big N like Star Trek Prodigy.

The Bridge Crew is a little tardy, but they finally close the loop on conversations for STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY by diving into the final two episodes of its first season: "300th Night" and "Rubincon!" Our panel of STAR TREK franchise explorers—Chris Clow, Cicero Holmes and Ty Monaghan—break down the effectiveness of the finale, their favorite characters for the season and what they felt both worked and didn't about STARFLEET ACADEMY as we await its second season. But to kick things off, the panel appeals to the people—and rants a bit—about the attitudes of some in fandom toward the show. Don't forget about PEDANTIC CONTINUITY TIME at the end, either! Editor's note: Time index 22:51-29:35 is fully spent on recaps for both episodes. Move to 29:35 for the commencement of the full discussion of the episodes.

You might know Steve from his very popular YouTube channel at youtube.com/steveshives. Steve covers both Star Trek commentary and political commentary – kinda makes sense that we'd eventually connect, me being the co-host of Trek Politics. As we discussed today, Steve is an alpha liberal and he doesn't shy away from fully owning his liberalism. So today, we started off with a little bit about the politics of Star Trek and what Stephen Miller had to say about the new Trek series Starfleet Academy, then we segued into the existential crisis for democracy and even managed to talk some Civil War by the end. So stick around. If you're not already, I think you'll be a Steve Shives fan after today. Meantime, make sure to support this podcast at patreon.com/bobcescashow. Music by Marina Rocks.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is doing something rare for a franchise show: it's willing to put its own hero institution genuinely on trial — and Matthew sits down with Matt Carroll, co-host of the Star Trek Universe Podcast and founder of the Stranded Panda Podcast Network, to dig into all ten episodes with full spoilers in hand.At the center of the season is a storyline connecting Captain Ake, Anisha Mir, and her son Caleb; a morally tangled triangle of guilt, projection, and hard accountability that both hosts find unexpectedly moving. They debate how the show handles its courtroom climax, where the villain Noose Braca's grievances against the Federation turn out to rest on factually false memories. The hosts see a deliberate political metaphor but wish the Federation had been made to answer for more. They also get into the Klingon cadet who wants to be a nurse, the war college subplot as Star Trek's latest engagement with its own military identity, and a three-stakes framework for evaluating action sequences that lights up a new way of thinking about everything from the Daredevil hallway fight to Luke's Death Star shot.The conversation doesn't stay in the story, because the story of what's happening to this show turns out to be just as urgent. Both hosts make the case that Starfleet Academy's pre-emptive cancellation before Season 2 even airs looks a lot less like a business decision and a lot more like a targeted act of political interference — and that watching the show is itself a small form of pushback.Mentioned in This EpisodeStar Trek Content DiscussedStar Trek: Deep Space Nine — “In the Pale Moonlight”Star Trek: PicardThe Orville (Season 4 reportedly in production for a late 2026/2027 release)Other Shows & Films ReferencedDaredevil (Netflix) — hallway fight scene, Season 1Buffy the Vampire SlayerLuke CageIf Starfleet Academy has been sitting in your queue, this is the episode that'll send you straight to it — or send you back for a rewatch with sharper eyes.About Matt CarrollMatt Carroll is the co-host of the Star Trek Universe Podcast and the founder of the Stranded Panda Podcast Network, home to the Marvel Cinematic Universe Podcast, Multiverse News, and more.

People love sports for the thrill of the challenge, to push their bodies to boldly go where they've never gone before. But in Star Trek, how would people compete in a universe where physical augmentation makes almost anything possible? What happens to bodybuilding a thousand years from now?Today's episode is a dual drop from Feast of Fun and Let's Grow Big Together, think of it as a transporter mishap where two podcasts are fused as one, but not as awkward as Tuvix.In this series, we take a look at the passion for muscle, adventures in bodybuilding, muscle gods, muscle worship and practical advice to put on the gains.The new series Starfleet Academy centers the Star Trek universe around the school for new recruits with a fresh focus on youth culture and hot bodies.Today Starfleet Academy's production designer Matthew Davies joins us to look at his work imagining schools, starships, gyms and nightclubs of the future.Davies is also an accomplished bodybuilder, so we're having a little fun imagining what bodybuilding might look like in that world.

Hit the books and polish up your comm badges, because it’s time to go to school—“Starfleet Academy,” that is. We check in on the first season of Star Trek’s latest (and last, for now?) TV series, and find that despite the YA focus, it’s still just really good “Star Trek” that’s worth your attention. Jason Snell with Dan Moren, Erika Ensign, Moisés Chiullán and Tony Sindelar.
