This week, Dan and Bill recall the life, career, and legacy of Nichelle Nichols who passed away at the age of 89 on July 31, 2022. 

Bill and Dan return to The Flagship with a look at a classic episode from the original Star Trek!

Season 3 saw Captain Kirk trapped in a different universe after investigating what killed the crew of the U.S.S. Defiant. He can't get back to the Enterprise in time and the crew has precious few chances to get him back in one of Dan's favorite episodes, "The Tholian Web!"

We'll look at why this episode is one of Season 3's best, what bothers us about it, and some of the times this episode has been revisited in later Treks.

We also announce a return to weekly episodes of The Flagship! HUZZAH!!

This week, it's the return of The News from TrekNews.net: Prodigy premieres on Nickelodeon, Creation announces no discount tickets this year, even more guests for Vegas, and the Season Finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds!

Back in May, Bill wrote an op-ed style piece for TrekNews.net titled, "Star Trek: Discovery Has Problems (& How They Can Be Fixed)," which was a constructive look at the issues many fans feel that Discovery has as far as crisis fatigue.

It was an article that caused a lot of discussion and, this week, Bill and Dan return to break down the points the article makes and discuss how this enormously successful show might improve.

Dan and Bill return to The Flagship this week to discuss the third Star Trek film--the feature film directorial debut of Leonard Nimoy, "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock!"

This is a movie that the Trek Geeks have been split on over the years and, in this episode, they'll discuss why.

From casting, to script, to memorable scenes and what may just be William Shatner's finest performance in Star Trek, they'll cover it all this week on Trek Geeks!

SPOILER ALERT!

This week, Bill and Dan look at the debut of the latest live action Star Trek series, "Strange New Worlds!" Normally this is a topic reserved for Discovering Trek, but with all of the acclaim the series has received from fans and critics alike, they couldn't help but talk about it on this installment of The Flagship!

In addition to talking about the characters, they'll also discuss highlights from the series' first two episodes, "Strange New Worlds," and "Children of the Comet."

If you HAVEN'T watched Star Trek: Strange New Worlds yet, you might want to wait until you do before you dive in on this episode!

Plus, news about FanGeeks Party 2022 in Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada that you're not going to want to miss!

Thanks to a global pandemic, it's been nearly three years since there has been an Official Star Trek Convention to attend.

That all changed a few weeks ago when ReedPOP--the new licensee for Star Trek conventions--held their first event in Chicago, Illinois! Star Trek: Mission Chicago saw fans of all ages return to the convention scene to celebrate the franchise we love, and it wasn't without its issues.

Bill and Dan will be joined by Ron Wrobel, host of the brand-new podcast "Con Pod: A Star Trek Conventions Podcast," to talk about the good, the bad, and the disappointing with this first travelling show.

They'll be looking at the categories of Schedule, Vendors, Celeb Experience, and Overall Experience and assigning a grade to each. How will they rate the convention? Listen now and find out!

It's been over two years since there's been an official Star Trek Convention and, this weekend, we gather again to celebrate the franchise we love!

Bill and Dan are headed to Star Trek: Mission Chicago and, this week on the Flagship, they look at this new convention experience looks like. From panels to vendors, Bill and Dan break it down. They'll also talk about what they hope to see from their weekend on Chicago's South Side.

With all the craziness in our lives, it's been a while since we've been able to talk about some of the amazing news we've had in the Star Trek Universe the past couple of months. In this episode, we attempt to rectify that gap in your podcast listening!

We'll discuss a bunch of major Trek stories including Kelvin Timeline movies, action figures, casting news, Mission Chicago updates and so much more! Plus, Dan announces the winner of the Farkism contest and reads the best Farkism this podcast has ever had!

(Audio Note: Some of Bill's audio in parts of the podcast has quality issues in this episode due to an issue with our recording platform. We apologize that his mellifluous tones aren't as mellifluous as they normally are. Luckily, his face is still glorious. Yes, Bill wrote this.)

This week, Bill & Dan look at the standout Season 7 episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, "It's Only a Paper Moon!"

Nog returns to DS9 after losing his leg in the events of "The Siege of AR-558" in an effort to continue his recovery. Starfleet has put him on medical leave, but Nog wants nothing to do with the real world. He escapes into the holosuites and the Vic Fontaine program--but will he ever leave?

Aron Eisenberg truly shines in this episode, and we'll talk about all the reasons why. Plus, we'll look at Nog's escapism and compare it to how many people--including us--have dealt with the pandemic the last couple of years.

This is one you're not gonna want to miss, pally.
