Set your phasers to stun and get ready to go where no person has gone before. This week we are joined by Shannon Lahaie (she/her) for a hilarious, heartwarming, in-depth, and occasionally tearful conversation about STAR TREK: The Next Generation. We give an in-depth run down of the key characters, most mind-blowing episodes and why Star Trek serves as an important moral compass for so many people. We discuss the value of aspirational heroes, the panoply of daddy issues, Gene Roddenberry's weak points and some healthy criticism re: misogyny and militarism. Plus a fan's take on how it feels to be an OFFICIAL part of the Star Trek canon. #startrekkisscam
