Hosts Cam Smith and Tyler Orton get downright hormonal while gauging the current health level of the Star Trek franchise!

We get deep into the lore of Deep Space Nine by talking about a variety of episodes that are not DS9, but feel like it! It's the “Top 5 Episodes that Feel Like DS9” on this week's TrekRanks, continuing our ongoing series of popular “Feels Like” topics. There are probably more shades to DS9 than any other series of Star Trek, and our expert panel of host Jim Moorhouse and guests Carl Wonders, Peter Hong and Nate Perkins cover them all by picking episodes from across the Trek lexicon – everything from TNG to Strange New Worlds. Join us in the Gamma Quadrant for this fun episode of TrekRanks.   Episode Rundown: Prime Directive: We skip our Diagnostic Cycle this week and jump straight into figuring out how our four-person panel narrowed down their lists and made their final choices. The Order of Things: All the picks are revealed with the TrekRanks' original “Five words and a hashtag” summary. Secondary Systems: For a few extra picks that just missed our final list. Regeneration Cycle: The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion. Temporal Inversion: We flashback to a previous episode of TrekRanks and relay some of the feedback received from listeners. If you have your own picks you would like to relay to us, please hail us at 757-828-RANK (7265) and record your own personal TrekRanks log to let us know your Top 5 Episodes that Feel Like DS9.

From its earliest concept stages, Star Trek: The Next Generation set out to break new ground, including the intentional addition of a disabled crewmember to the Enterprise-D.

In this episode of Epic Realms, Nick is joined by author and writer Kelli Fitzpatrick. Kelli is a science fiction writer, game writer, and teacher. She is the author of Captain Marvel: Carol Danvers Declassified (BenBella Books, 2025) and a contributing writer for the Star Trek Adventures roleplaying game from Modiphius. Her story “The Sunwalkers” won the 2016 Strange New Worlds contest from Simon and Schuster. Her short fiction has been published by Baen Books, Crazy 8 Press, Flash Fiction Online, and more. She also writes essays on sci-fi pop culture for outlets like StarTrek.com, Women at Warp, and anthologies from Sequart and ATB Publishing. Kelli has even written for NASA's Hubble outreach and Arizona State University's Interplanetary Initiative. On top of it all, she has more than a decade of experience teaching high school and college courses. We talk about her early life and the geeky inspirations that led her into writing, watching Star Trek with her family, playing board games, and how those experiences sparked a love for storytelling. During National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), Kelli challenged her students to join her in writing a novel, which inspired her to later submit a story to a Star Trek fiction contest that she ended up winning. That moment opened the door to a whole new world. We also dive into her many anthology projects, how she joined Modiphius, and her unexpected but rewarding introduction to tabletop roleplaying games. She shares how RPGs have helped her grow as a writer and how they can benefit others too. Plus, we talk about her passion for Marvel and her recent Carol Danvers Marvel book, how the character shaped her fandom and why getting to tell that story was such a meaningful opportunity. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that blends fandom, education, creativity, and the power of storytelling.

In dieser Episode diskutieren wir die neueste Folge von "Strange New Worlds", die den Titel "Lost in Translation" trägt. Gemeinsam mit meinen geschätzten Mitstreitern Arne und Frank steigen wir direkt in die Handlung ein, die uns in die Weiten des Weltraums führt, wo die Enterprise einer Tankstelle im All zugeteilt wird. Doch wie gewohnt, verläuft nicht alles wie geplant und wir werden Zeugen eines mysteriösen Geschehens, das die Crew in Atem hält. Besonders spannend ist die Reise von Uhura, die sich mit Halluzinationen und eigenen inneren Dämonen auseinandersetzen muss – ein Element, das wir aus verschiedenen Perspektiven analysieren. Ein zentrales Thema ist die zwischenmenschliche Dynamik innerhalb der Crew, besonders die Beziehung zwischen Uhura und den anderen Figuren, inklusive des unerwarteten Auftritts von Captain Kirk. Diese Begegnung wird nicht nur von einem emotionalen Aufeinandertreffen geprägt, sondern hebt auch Uhuras Herausforderungen als Offizierin hervor. Kirk hilft ihr, sich mit der Trauer um ihre verstorbenen Familienmitglieder auseinanderzusetzen, was der Episode eine tiefere emotionale Schicht verleiht, die sowohl berührend als auch aufschlussreich ist. Wir beleuchten auch die Beziehungsgeschichte zwischen den Brüdern Jim und Sam Kirk. Während Jim seiner Karriere bei der Sternenflotte nachgeht, hat Sam andere Prioritäten, was Spannungen und Missverständnisse zwischen den beiden hervorruft. Diese familiären Konflikte verankern sich in der gesamten Episode und geben einen Einblick in die Komplexität ihrer Beziehung, die durch ihren verstorbenen Vater, George Kirk, noch verstärkt wird. Diese ergreifenden Momente zeigen, wie stark familiäre Erwartungen und persönliche Ambitionen aufeinanderprallen. Ein weiterer wichtiger Aspekt dieser Folge ist das Thema des Traumas und der Trauer. Wir analysieren die Art und Weise, wie Uhura mit ihren Halluzinationen umgeht, und welche Auswirkungen diese inneren Kämpfe auf ihr Verhalten und ihre Entscheidungen haben. Diese emotionalen Achterbahnfahrten bieten einen gelungenen Kontrapunkt zu den humorvollen Momenten innerhalb der Crew, die in der Kneipe der Enterprise zur Geltung kommen. Hier zeigen sich die Charaktere in entspannteren, lockereren Interaktionen, die dem Publikum die Möglichkeit geben, die Dynamik innerhalb des Teams zu erleben. Auf visueller Ebene sind die Effekte und die Darstellung des Weltraums herausragend, wobei die düstere Ästhetik der Umgebung die Emotionen der Charaktere unterstreicht. Besonders Uhurah's Halluzinationen werden einprägsam umgesetzt und ermöglichen es, ihre innere Zerrissenheit visuell zu transportieren. Die Kombination von Spannung, Drama und visueller Erzählkunst trägt dazu bei, dass diese Episode nicht nur unterhaltsam, sondern auch thematisch tiefgründig ist. Abschließend stellen wir uns die Frage, wie weit die Charaktere bereit sind zu gehen, um ihre inneren Konflikte zu bewältigen und was das für deren Entwicklung bedeutet. Während wir uns auf die kommenden Episoden freuen, bleibt die Frage, wie die Beziehung zwischen den Kirks und Uhura sich weiter entfalten wird und welche Herausforderungen auf sie warten. Diese vielschichtige Erzählung bietet reichlich Diskussionsstoff und regt dazu an, über die Funktionen von Familie, Freundschaft und die Auseinandersetzung mit der eigenen Vergangenheit nachzudenken.

Anthony and Laurie welcome actor and artist Bruce Horak to the podcast to talk about getting cast as Chief Engineer Hemmer on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, doing knife-catching scenes and death scenes, singing as a Klingon, filming during Covid, and bonding with Uhura. He also tells us about his way of seeing the world and how he’s expressing that in his painting and the documentary he’s crowdfunding, Boldly Going, in which he meets others who have overcome barriers to find creative freedom and purpose and paints their portrait as he talks to them, creating a moment of connection captured on canvas.

The Table — not the cross — is the symbol Jesus chose to remember him by.In this Easter reflection, we step into the Strange New World of resurrection and explore why the Eucharist, Communion, and the Lord's Supper have always been at the heart of Christian practice. Long before the gospels were written, before theology was fully formed, the first followers of Jesus gathered around a table — and they experienced grace you could taste.In this video, discover:

Empezamos el podcast con la tertulia de la segunda temporada de Strange New Worlds, que nos encantó, como no puede ser de otra manera, y nos retrasa el inicio del episodio de TNG hasta la 1h34m. El episodio de la quincena, ‘The Chase', nos trae la revelación de que una antigua civilización esparció la vida por la Galaxia, de manera que la mayoría de razas conocidas del universo de Star Trek tienen un origen común. Esta trama será la base de la quinta y última temporada de Discovery. ‘The Chase' no es un episodio perfecto, ni de los mejores, pero sí que es muy recordado por esta revelación científica, y por ser un episodio personal de Picard que nos muestra su pasado como pupilo de un gran arqueólogo.

Real Life: This week's episode kicks off with Devon missing in action, attending a wedding and recovering from, well… life. Also, he's apparently deep into building off-brand LEGO, which raises some very important questions: How many pieces? How many regrets? Meanwhile, Ben survived a 5.2 earthquake and checks in to let us know that everyone's safe. He also shares a couple links to Desert Child, an indie hover-bike racer/RPG that mixes hip-hop, ramen, and pixel art vibes—and may or may not be rolling onto Xbox soon thanks to some juicy UI integration rumors. https://store.steampowered.com/app/844050/Desert_Child/ https://isthereanydeal.com/game/desert-child/info/ https://www.theverge.com/news/633478/microsoft-xbox-steam-games-support-ui   Steven's life update is more... fluffy. Literally. He's in line to pick up baby chicks for the backyard flock (Black Sexlinked and Smokey Pearl, if you're curious), and discovers that mailing baby birds is a surprisingly common thing. Also, he's deploying next-level parenting tricks by disguising fun surprises as errands. The dad game is strong.  Also: The Last of Us S2 premiere dropped and Steven gives it a glowing 10/10. We talk a bit about how the show mirrors the game—and why it's working so well. Ben also brings us something very important: The Naboo Movie. It's real. It's glorious. It's here: watch it now. Future or Now: Ben drops some cosmic perspective with a planetary fact that blew our minds: All the planets in our solar system could line up between the Earth and the Moon. That includes Pluto, for those of you still rooting for the little guy. Steven introduces us to Mad Mouse—no, not a Disney spinoff. This is about AI mapping mouse brains. A new model simulates how the mouse visual cortex responds to images. Basically, it's science fiction getting closer to just… science. Read the study here. Book Club: This week, we took a listen to the first episode of It's Storytime with Wil Wheaton, featuring “Rock, Paper, Scissors, Love, Death” by Caroline M. Yoachim. It's a short, beautiful, gut-punch of a story about love across time and space—a real Gordian knot of feels. Check it out on Lightspeed Magazine. Next week we'll be diving into “Fragments of a Hologram Rose” by William Gibson, part of his Burning Chrome collection. It's a short one—just 15 minutes—and dripping in cyberpunk atmosphere. And if you're wondering about the Star Trek side of our brains: yes, we saw the new Strange New Worlds trailer. Yes, it looks wild. Yes, we're watching. Peep it here.

Those Old Scientists (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, S2 E7) was recommended by Bryan Love(Blackrain), who said: Time travel, cross over, animate, live action, fan boying or girling over your historical idols. What more can you ask for in a Star Trek episode? When on routine away mission to scan an ancient time portal, Ensign Boimier is sucked in into the portal and sent to the past just at the right time when Enterprise was making it's first discovery of that strange portal. Boimier tries his best not to contaminate the time line, but it's Boimier we're talking about. He's going to mess things up or his bestie Mariner will. Just when the crew of Enterprise has the one and only chance to get Boimier home through the ancient time portal, Mariner jumps through from her side thinking she's saving Boimier, but only stranding both of them in the past. Both Boimier and Mariner fan boy out on different Enterprise crew members.This is a great episode over all. Mixing the humor of Lower Decks with the hard hitting stories of Strange New Worlds. It was also perfect that both the voice actors for Boimier and Mariner both look closely like their cartoon characters. This episode always brings up that question of how would you react if you got to meet with you hero? Someone you never thought you would, ether living or dead.Those Old Scientists first aired on July 22, 2023, written by Kathryn Lyn & Bill Wolkoff, and directed by Jonathan FrakesIn the 24th century, ensign Brad Boimler of the USS Cerritos is assigned to investigate an ancient portal. The portal, which is powered by the rare substance horonium, sends him back in time 120 years where he is taken aboard the Enterprise. Boimler struggles to contain his excitement at meeting his heroes and also to prevent polluting the timeline with his knowledge of the future. The portal is stolen by an Orion ship and Pike trades grain supplies to retrieve it. They attempt to return Boimler to the future with the last remaining horonium, but ensign Beckett Mariner comes through the portal instead in a rescue attempt. Spock and Boimler unsuccessfully try to synthesize horonium so they can use the portal again while Mariner and Uhura work to translate engravings on the portal. Boimler realizes that horonium from the hull of the previous starship Enterprise was incorporated into Pike's Enterprise.
