Episode 30 includes a little news and a lot of talk. Changes at CBS likely mean more Star Trek. John and Ken hit that briefly, then it's on to the calls! Topics include comics, toys, and how to keep the Trek in the face of soul crushing news of the day. Also, a listener gets hit by the Lightning Round!

As Star Trek: The Next Generation was in its earliest days of development, one writer pitched the idea to return to a formula - and a character descendant - that had worked well for TOS. How would audiences in the '80s react to "Albania Jones"? What if he was played by Robin Williams? David Gerrold suggested one of their stronger comedy writers take a crack at it... himself!

In 1972, an aspiring artist sent his design ideas for a new Star Trek to Gene Roddenberry. Little did he know at the time that in a few years he would be working for the franchise he loved, contributing to Star Trek The Motion Picture. In this letter from 1972, Andrew Probert proposes the updates he would make if Trek comes back. Who better to discuss this find than the man himself - our special guest Andrew Probert!
