  • Mental Health and Awareness in Star Trek – Earth Station Trek – Episode 218

    This week we are talking about how Star Trek has addressed mental health issues over the years. How will neurodiversity — and society’s understanding and acceptance of it — change in the future? Is there a place for everyone, no matter their situation? How does Starfleet address these issues and incorporate persons in these circumstances into its ranks? What roles do Counselors play on a Starship?

    But first, we’ll get a “This Week in Trek” report from Keith, and then we’ll talk briefly about what we learned from the Strange New Worlds screening at Tribeca.

    Earth Station Trek is a part of the ESO Podcast Network, Executive Producer Mike Faber.

  • Staying alive is as good as it gets. | Earth Station Boo

    Earth Station Boo dives into 28 Days Later, the film that redefined the zombie genre with its fast-moving infected and bleak realism. We explore its haunting atmosphere, from the desolate streets of London to its masterful use of tension over jump scares. Join us as we break down Jim’s transformation from outsider to survivor, Selena’s role as a strong female protagonist, and how the film’s raw digital aesthetic and special effects heighten its unsettling tone.

    We also examine the film’s themes of isolation, societal collapse, and human nature. Are the infected the greatest threat, or is humanity even more dangerous? Plus, we debate whether the film’s hopeful ending was the right choice. Don’t miss this deep dive into one of horror’s most influential films—only on Earth Station Boo!

  • Modern Musicology #139 – Should Have Been Their Last Album?

    LAST ALBUMS

    We all can think of those artists or bands that we feel went just one album too far (and sometimes more!) and what might have been a great ending, capping off an iconic career, is undermined by a less-than-stellar follow-up. This week Anthony and Alan talk about some of the examples they came up with — including Metallica, Weezer, Fleetwood Mac, Heart, Marillion, October Project, Asia, Judas Priest, Queen, Black Sabbath, and a whole lot more!

    Then we do some #PicksOfTheWeek and talk about new releases from Marina, Bloodywood, Sparks, Styx, et al 

    We really would love to hear from you! Do you have an example of an album that would have been an amazing career-capper for a particular band or artist but wasn’t? Let us know!

  • EnterpriseSplaining 40: Mission T’Polsible!

    We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 2, Episode 7 “The Seventh,” but only Maria has actually watched the episode. T’Pol has some unfinished business with a fugitive she never managed to capture. She asks Archer to join her on the mission, which is good because it starts to trigger memories she didn’t know she had. Much like the EnterpriseSplaining crew who for weeks after recording this, kept asking “What was that episode about again?”

    Rikermendations:
    • Bill: The Fall 2006 – movie
    • The Women (1939) – movie
    • Carmen Sandiego for Switch – video game
    • Sound assistance by K.O. Myers at Particulate Media

    • I wonder who the real cannibals are  | Earth Station Boo

      Brace yourselves as the Haunted Hosts dive into one of the most controversial horror films of all time—Cannibal Holocaust. From its shocking use of real animal killings and unflinching violence to its groundbreaking influence on the found footage genre, this episode unpacks the film’s impact and ethics. We explore its critique of sensationalism and exploitation in media, its depiction of civilization versus savagery, and how its provocative legacy still sparks debates today. Does Cannibal Holocaust push the boundaries of artistic expression, or does it cross a line? And how should modern audiences view this polarizing film with its troubling history?

    • The 42cast Episode 240: BOBbing for Heroes*

      Thunderbolts* was one of the risky ventures that Marvel puts out from time-to-time. Featuring a cast of supporting characters from previous films and series, the story catapults several characters to prominence while doing a fair amount of Marvel world-building and character development. In this episode we go over Thunderbolts*. We talk about the plot of the film and how well it works as a bridge between phases Five and Six. We discuss the characters and how they’re utilized within the story. We also give our opinions on whether this story feels like it has “homework”. We’ll also get into that asterix and whether we think that Marvel dropped the ball on the marketing.

      This week’s five-minute controversy asks if it’s a good idea for Marvel to separate the storytelling between their TV and movie lines.

      This week Anji, James, and Stephen join the cast.

      Show Notes:
      An article about Feige’s comments on “Homework” with a link back to the original Wall Street Journey article
