Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to a special episode of our Star Trek Prodigy podcast. Today James and Kim have a conversation with Aaron J Waltke, co executive producer and co head writer of Star Trek Prodigy.

We've been chatting with Aaron since season 1 of Star Trek Prodigy and he was kind enough to sit down with us for an hour! We talk A LOT about Prodigy, time travel and the hopefulness of Star Trek. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.

Today's lesson: There is always hope.

While Maahi didn't join us for the conversation, she did provide some questions.

Normally it's a re-watch of a thing you've already seen but love to watch and talk about....but now we're bringing you something new! Prodigy is our first dive into podcasting new Trek. Come along for the ride!

If Prodigy returns, we will too! You can also check out the previous episode S2E10: Ouroboros!

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 19 and 20: Ouroboros Parts I and II. We've reached the end of season 2! In these two episodes we wrap up our big story arc of season 2 and set up the crew for season 3 (we hope???).

The crew rushes to stop Asencia from destroying Starfleet and the Federation with her advanced time weapons. Everyone on the Prodigy crew helps to fight the big bad and get the Protostar back to Tars Lamora. We've got hand-to-hand combat, space battles and time shenanigans! It's all here as the season comes to a dramatic close.

Today's lesson: sometimes time makes no sense.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is back this week with her personal log!

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 17 and 18: Brink and Touch of Grey. We send the Prodigy crew down to Solum to try and gather some info about Asencia and her new technology. Naturally things don't go as planned.

On Solum, Gwyn leads the Prodigy crew on an undercover mission to rescue Illthuran and learn about Asencia. Good news, we meet the young (non-evil) Asencia, but bad news both Illthuran and Wesley are being held captive. Gwyn decides to split the team and rescue both, but that turns out to be a bad idea.

Today's lesson: when you're told to stick together, stick together!

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 15 and 16: Ascension Parts I and II. The crew is reunited, which seems like great news, but we seem to have forgotten that Asencia / Tahani still wants to kill everyone in Starfleet! That's right, Jameela Jamil is back!

The crew is reunited with Janeway and Voyager, but the mission is still not complete. We need to get the Protostar back to where it belongs, unfortunately we are about to run into some very big obstacles to our plans. Asencia turns up with weapons from the future and a plan to destroy Starfleet.

Today's lesson: the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is not with us this week, but never fear she will return!

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 13 and 14: A Tribble Called Quest and Cracked Mirror (also known as The Bribble and the Cracked Mirror). Lots to unpack in these episodes as we meet a scientist Klingon and we accidentally drop into the Mirroverse! That's right, Mirror Janeway is about to kick our butts!

The crew need some bosonite to get the proto-core up and running, so we drop into a planet that's been overrun by mutant tribbles! While that seems like bad news, we do also meet a Klingon scientist and create a new pet for the crew. But more importantly, we leave that planet and fly right into the Mirroverse where we meet Borg-Implant Janeway and Goatee Chakotay. This is a fun episode where even the whale is evil.

Today's lesson: never trust a goatee or a whale with a scar.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is here with an update toward the end of the pod. Hear what she has to say about her first introduction to Wesley Crusher.

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 11 and 12: Last Flight of the Protostar Parts I and II. We finally find Chakotay and we learn he's been stranded alone on a planet for 10 years.

The Prodigy crew have to help Chakotay get out of a depression and get the Protostar back into space. It's not an easy task (and it takes two episodes) but we do eventually get things moving.

Today's lesson: Don't be a downer, there's always another way.

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 9 and 10: The Devourer of All Things Parts I and II. You are in for a treat in these two episodes as we learn the identity of the secret benefactor (guest Will Wheaton) and we get an explanation of what is going on with the timeline. And as an added bonus, Action Janeway turns up to kick butts and take names.

We finally learn the identity of the person who has been helping us and it's not entirely a surprise, but it is a lot of fun. Wesley Crusher is here to save the timeline (and his mom) but he is a little bit wacky and can't quite keep his mind on one thing at a time. There is a lot of action in these episodes as we meet the very unpleasant and unforgiving Loom. Wesley tries to save the crew from the time scavengers but when they get backed into a corner, it's Action Janeway to the rescue when the tank top and the phaser rifle come out!

Today's lesson: tank top Janeway is the best Janeway.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is here with an update toward the end of the pod. Hear what she has to say about her first introduction to Wesley Crusher.

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 7 and 8: The Fast and the Curious and Is There in Beauty No Truth. In these episodes we run into an evil computer in the first episode and some mysterious non corporeal beings in the second. Neither maybe has our crew's best interest at heart!

In episode 7 we run into some old villains in the Kazon, but not everything is as it seems. The same holds true in episode 8 when we find a planet of non corporeal beings that are maybe keeping a secret of their own. In the first episode, Dal and Gwyn get into a little race for freedom while in the second episode Zero makes some new friends and experiences some new sensations.

Today's lesson: ask more questions.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is back! We asked her to record an update for all of the episodes in season 2 up to this week. Look for that toward the end of the podcast.

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 5 and 6: Observer's Paradox and Imposter Syndrome. In these episodes we are trying to figure out our mysterious helper while the young crew hatches a complex plan to get off of Voyager!

Murf is trying to tell us something but nobody speaks Murf-ese so Rok-Tahk hatches an innocent plan enlisting the help of Gillian the whale. Later the crew tries to replace themselves with holograms so they can escape Voyager, but in usual fashion everything goes haywire.

Today's lesson: don't make the same mistakes as Geordi.

Our kid correspondent Maahi is away this month and is unavailable. She will be back!

Hello Star Trek fans! Welcome to Star Trek Prodigy Season 2 Episodes 3 and 4: Who Saves the Saviors and Temporal Mechanics 101. In these episodes we deal with the fallout of the crew heading into the wormhole too early. Dal wants to stay on mission and rescue Chakotay but everything goes wrong and the very existence of Gwyn is put at risk. We learn the Vulcan Nova squad's name is Maj'El (played by Michaela Dietz) and we absolutely love it!

Dal, Zero, Jankom and the Vulcan land on Solum 52 years in the future. There is a brief amount of hope as we believe we are there to help with events, but of course it all falls apart when Chakotay changes his actions. Whoops! Meanwhile over on Solum in the past, Gwyn is having a fight-to-the-death with the Vindicator in the giant pit. These things never end well.

Today's lesson: don't mess with the timeline, kids. You don't have the time.
