Coming up this week on the Retro Chat podcast, Andy is joined once again by the "Man with the Socks" Dan Barnsdall, as we look at the iconic Star Trek Next Generation two parter "The Best of Both Worlds". Dan as we know is not the biggest Star Trek fan so this was more of a question and answer session, but as well as this we also talk about the following:

This bumper edition is not just a look at Trek but a general chat and we hope you enjoy

As today is Andy's 40th birthday we thought what better way to celebrate then to launch a new From the Vault series and one of his personal favourites. Legends and Champions was a 25 episode series focusing on the classic era of professional wrestling, hosted by both Lee Tyers and Andy Evans, each episode either focused on a performer, a tag team, a show or something else. This was combined with interviews from classic superstars and performers. 

For the first time since it's original airing all 25 episodes are going to be re-released on this podcast stream, giving a whole new generation the opportunity to listen to this well loved but forgotten show. 

On episode 1, Lee and Andy are joined by former WWE and WCW superstar Terri Runnels. 

Far Beyond the Stars is a Star Trek episode with a difference, it tackles the big issues of racism, sexism in the 1950's. This week on the Retro Chat podcast, Andy welcomes Dan Barnsdall back to the show to break down the episode and discuss the topics which came out of it. As well as this we also throw in some bits of DS9 trivia.   

This is a different type of Retro Chat episode focusing on the deeper topics rather than a retrospective of an episode. We hope you enjoy
