"I don't know how, or why, but I am moving... back and forth... through time."That line reading from "All Good Things..." has been echoing in our heads for 30 years and today on Transporter Room 3 -- we have the actor who said it: Sir Patrick Stewart. Captain Picard beams on down to share behind the scenes memories of making Star Trek: The Next Generation's series finale, "All Good Things..." Stewart shares what it was like directing TNG's penultimate episode before appearing in nearly every scene of its last, while also telling a story we've never heard before about the making of "A Fistful of Datas." So stop running around in your pajamas and bare feet and listen now!
With Star Trek: Discovery in its fifth and final season, Transporter Room 3 beams down with a snapshot review of the first four episodes so far. We discuss what's working, what could work better (another MacGuffin puzzle plot, really?), and what we thought of “Face the Strange” going full time travel.Listen now and also take a trip to the Replimat with us for some 1999 Steven Soderbergh, a ballerina vampire, and a Red Shirt from Disco!
Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise, Denise Crosby herself beams into Transporter Room 3 for a wide-ranging chat. We discuss how the Tasha Yar actress got her start in the industry, what it was like growing up with the famous "Crosby" name, why she left Star Trek... and how she's still with Star Trek after all these years! This is a good one, guys. Don't miss it!
This is a big one. Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise, Pavel Chekov himself -- Walter Koenig -- beams in to Transporter Room 3 for a frank discussion about the ups and downs of the Star Trek life. You don't want to miss this one, folks! We were never that young!
Direct from Star Trek: The Cruise! This week, Saru himself - the talented Doug Jones - beams down to Transporter Room 3 and Scott kinda makes him cry, in a good way. Jones takes us behind the scenes of his impressive career, from working with Guillermo del Toro to boldly going onboard Discovery. This is one (sometimes emotional) interview you don't want to miss.
*In vintage TNG trailer for next week's episode voice* This week, Scott and Phil beam down to the USS Pegasus to help Will Riker retrieve a dangerous cloaking device. Will we succeed before the Romulans catch us?

Transporter Room 3 celebrates its 12th anniversary this week (*toasts glass of Kanar*) with another Star Trek episode commentary: “Charlie X.” It's Captain Kirk vs. a 17-year-old orphan who can vanish sparring partners like Sam (RIP) or disappear a woman's face with his mind. We have all the behind-the-scenes trivia you could ever want about the episode, so listen now!
We have a super-sized, two-part episode on Transporter Room 3, with special guest star and Star Trek creature designer Neville Page. *insert To Be Continued... title card here*With Titan Books' Star Trek: The Art of Neville Page providing a rare behind-the-scenes look into the makeup and creature designs for nearly the last 15 years of boldly going on screens big and small, Page sat down to discuss how he went from designing wheelchairs to working with Steven Spielberg on Minority Report and James Cameron on Avatar, and eventually bringing his unique and amazing talents to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek films.This interview is full of behind-the-scenes bits, so get comfy and listen now! (Also, check out Neville's new book -- if you love Star Trek 2009 and Star Trek: Picard, you're gonna want to add it to your shelves.) And be sure to check our Patreon for Part 2 of the interview...
