Summer is joined by contributing team members NERDSoul, Louis Howley, and Jazz to talk about this week's 40th anniversary screenings of "Star Trek: The Motion Picture". We talk about how the film holds up on the big screen after all these years, the highlights and the flaws, and some of the interesting tidbits from the Fathom extras.

Then, Louis and NERDSoul talk about "Star Trek: Discovery", and the new Trek series in production and in development for CBS All Access, including "Picard" and "Star Trek: Lower Decks", plus the Michelle Yeoh led spinoff (no title yet) about the Section 31 black ops teams.

Fathom Events: Studio Ghibli Fest 2019
