Richard and Christel watched "Star Trek: Of Gods and Men" and will be discussing everything about it! From the fan service that landed, to the parts that got lost in warp speed! Prepare for a lively exchange. Whether you loved it, hated it, or are somewhere in the nebulous zone in between... this discussion will be illuminating. They ask the all-important question: Is "Of Gods and Men" a worthy addition to the Star Trek legacy, or a fan film that's best left in the archives? Time to find out!

Get ready for a holodeck experience for your ears!!! We're diving headfirst into the hot topic of the galaxy – Axanar (the fan film that sunk a thousand productions)! Christel and Richard are bringing in their Trekkie Bestie, Matt to see it all for his podcast debut! Now, we know Prelude to Axanar is the only fully released teaser we have so far, but let's just say it's like a Klingon opera: Dramatic and surprisingly mesmerizing. We're practically booking our shore leave in anticipation of the full Axanar film to come out. It promises to be epic… but it may turn out to be as epic as a Vulcan emotional breakdown... We're also chatting about the elusive Interlude to Axanar. Spoiler alert: it involves more dramatic standoffs than an intense game of space poker! And because we just can’t contain our excitement, we're tossing in not one, but TWO unreleased episodes of Star Trek: New Voyages! Richard made some updates in editing to make them more watchable. He basically spun space rocks into gold pressed latinum! So grab your Earl Grey Tea, HOT and boldly go where no podcaster has gone before!
