Shuttlepodder Jared Whitley invites John Duchak and Laurie Ulster to join him in a celebration of ‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ in honor of the show’s 30th anniversary. After a not-so-quick overview of the series as a whole, they each pick three episodes to talk about—not the most venerated ones, necessarily, but ones that stuck out to them as favorites that demonstrated some aspect of what the show does best. NOTE: We’ll be back in a few weeks when we can reconvene with the full complement of the Shuttle Pod crew for a ‘Star Trek: Picard’ Season 3 wrap up.

Brian, Kayla, and Matt climb aboard the shuttlepod to talk Ultra HD Blu-ray, 35mm film restoration, and of course the issues around, and possibilities for, remastering the beloved ’90s Trek shows (DS9 and VOY), and more. https://www.dotheysellamurfplushyet.com/

Kayla and Matt climb aboard the Shuttle Pod to discuss “Dominion” and “Surrender.” The podcasters worry about a slight mid-season slump, but everything comes out on top by the end of the 8th episode. They praise Vadic’s interesting backstory, Marina Sirits’ and Jonathan Frakes’ chemistry, and Brent Spiner’s ability to seamlessly switch between Data and Lore. The crew discuses how Jack has become the star of these two episodes, and they talk about how they really just want to know what’s on the other side of that red door now.

Brian and Matt climb aboard the Shuttle Pod to discuss “Imposters” and “The Bounty.” As the final season of ‘Star Trek: Picard’ hits the mid-point, there’s lots to talk about including starship fan service done right, the welcome surprise returns of Ro Laren, Geordi LaForge, and maybe even Data?

In this episode of the Shuttle Pod podcast, Brian, Matt, and Kayla sit down to go over the latest two episodes of Star Trek: Picard, representing the end of Act One of the season-long story arc. The crew are enjoying this season, even more than they thought they would, and Kayla has a couple of deep cut clues she may have uncovered in these two episodes. Plus, the crew come up with a very realistic and definitely correct fan theory about the Changelings’ buckets. Perhaps the most fun clue we uncovered is the provenance of the knife used by Vadic to turn her hand into some kind of Changeling communication device. It reminds us of a certain Reman knife, but it turns out that (at least in non-canon works) the knife isn’t Reman at all… it’s Jem’Hadar. Listen in to find out more!

Shuttlepodders Kayla and Brian tackle the first two episodes of Star Trek: Picard’s third season, and ask the tough questions, like what is the deal with Jack Crusher? Is Captain Shaw a jerk, or justified in his actions? Is there a mole on the Titan? Why is Raffi always talking to screens? Is showrunner Terry Matalas all that and a bag of chips?

The Shuttle Pod crew gathers to go over the final trailer for ‘Star Trek: Picard’ season three that was released Sunday evening. Brian, Kayla, Jared, and Matt talk about their hopes, questions, and concerns for the upcoming season, which is billed as a “proper send off” for the ‘Next Generation’ crew.

With the return of the second half of the first season of ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’, shuttle pod’ers Kayla and Matt are joined by Laurie from All Access Star Trek to discuss all things ‘Prodigy.’

Brian and Matt board the Shuttle Pod to commemorate the 35th anniversary of ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation.’ They recall their first encounters with TNG, reflect on previous TNG anniversary celebrations, and look forward to ‘Star Trek: Picard’ season 3 in February. Then the pair discuss the unsurprising news that the next Star Trek movie has been pulled from Paramount’s schedule. They mull over the various scripts that have been prepared over the last few years, and wonder if there’s even a need for a Trek film at this point.

This special podcast features a live recording of the TrekMovie.com “State of Star Trek” panel from the 56-Year Mission Las Vegas Star Trek convention. On the panel were TrekMovie.com editors and podcasters: Anthony Pascale, Laurie Ulster, Kayla Iacovino, and Matt Wright.
