TrekRanks Episode 193: Top 5 Coolest Looking Tech


Listen Later

Cool looking technology has been a staple of Star Trek for 60 years, and on this week's TrekRanks we deep dive into exactly that with a can't miss episode focused on the "Top 5 Coolest Looking Tech." From tricorders to plasma coils, "cool looking tech" is about as broad and succinct as you can get for a classic TrekRanks topic. Our expert panel of host Jim Moorhouse and guests Paul Edinger and Kelli have great time getting into Trek's cool technological lore in this one.

Episode Rundown:

  • Diagnostic Cycle: It's a new TrekRanks series! "Coolest" topics. (This is the third one we've done, so we recap the others.)
  • Prime Directive: Each guest on this week's panel reveals exactly how they narrowed down list and made their final choices.
  • The Order of Things: All the picks are revealed with the TrekRanks' original "Five word summary and a hashtag," along with one episode to help frame their choice.
    • Secondary Systems: For a few extra picks that just missed our final list.
  • Regeneration Cycle: The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion. Was it bigger than a bread box?
  • Temporal Inversion: We flashback to another great voicemail from one of our listeners, this one going back to our epic "Mediocre Trek" episode.

If you have your own picks you would like to relay to us, please hail us at 757-828-RANK (7265) and record your own personal TrekRanks log to let us know your Top 5 Coolest Looking Tech. (Or you can record it yourself and just DM us @TrekRanks on Twitter.) Your comments could be used as part of a Temporal Inversion on an upcoming episode (and might get you a chance to be a guest on a future episode, too).
