In this pilot podcast episode, we look at the premiere of Star Trek Lower Decks, meet the crew of the USS Cerritos, and also the "faculty" of the Star Trek Academy podcast, real college professors Dr. Rodney Cupp and Dr. Michael Marek.

This episode has been remastered to include a shorter episode summary than we originally recorded when Lower Decks was brand new. You'll hear some audio that isn't ideal because we hadn't received our permanent podcast microphones yet, but it should still be easy to understand.
