DISCO has been ordered to go into the subspace rift made by the DMA to gather any readings or information they can about the anomaly. Things are going nominally at first, but when the ship gets inside, there is nothing …

A fairly straightforward day on the DISCOVERY. The ship is sent as part of a rescue mission to a string of asteroids that are about to get his by the crazy dark matter anomaly in that is tearing through the …

What is happening?! Michael and Saru get called down to the surface of Ni'var to help President Rillak close the deal with Ni'Var joining the Federation. Tilly goes to Starfleet academy, with Adira in tow, to run some critical team …

When a rogue Qowat Milat sister goes, well, rogue and starts knocking over Starfleet ships delivering dilithium to planets in need (and, incidentally, kills a Starfleet officer in the process), Ni'Var, the Federation, and the Qowat Milat have to team …

So. There's a space anomaly about five light-years in diameter that is chewing up solar systems like a swarm of piranha. No worries! Discover jumps in to take some measurements and can't get close enough to get good readings. Pas …

It's a beautiful day in the galactic neighborhood of the 32nd century. The Federation is back, Starfleet no longer needs to hide behind a cloak, and there's *plenty* of dilithium to go around. Michael and the crew of Discovery are …

Stevie and Akie return for MORE TREK! After starting this podcast in summer of 2020 (because.. well you know, we had time!) and covering all recaps of the new Trek seasons and series from Discovery Seasons 1-3; Lower Decks Seasons …

In the season finale of Lower Decks, the Cerritos is headed to the Laaperian system to assist the USS Archimedes in a first contact mission. Things go awry when a solar flare causes an unstable planetoid to blow and completely …

It's a long warp for the crew of the Cerritos, 12 hours. So Captain Freeman is giving folks the day off. To chill and hang. Boimler is excited to spend time with the gang but they're all hanging out with …

Mariner's feeling a bit sour because she and the lower decks gang go left out in space for six hours when the Cerritos has to warp away to help another ship in trouble. Also, a Starfleet drill instructor is showing …

First, there's this evil supercomputer that caused a hundred years of war on a nameless planet. Boimler and Mariner are tasked with bringing it to the Daystrom Institute to be put on ice, but when they get stranded on a …

There is, indeed, a spy humongous on the USS Cerritos. Capt. Freeman and Shaxs have gone down to the Pakled planet (which they called "Pakled Planet") to try and negotiate a peace. But then a "prisoner" from the planet "escapes" …

The Cerritos is headed to Starbase 25 for the annual Command Conference (which is purported to have one of the most outrageous after-parties in the quadrant!) and it will be the only California-class ship attending. Captain Freeman is rather chuffed. …

So there's this big scary mugato creature on on Frylong IV, precisely where it shouldn't be. Cerritos is dispatched to get to the bottom of it. So what if they're poisonous, carnivorous, and incredibly strong? Shaxs leads the away mission …

Lieutenant Paris is visiting the Cerritos! You know, Janeway’s hand-selected, to-be-redeemed, ace pilot. He’s visiting!Also, Tendi is sent on a mission by Dr. T’Ana and decides to bring Mariner along for a “Girl’s Trip.” Hijinks ensue. Rutherford wants t...

Season two of Lower Decks rapidly picks up speed. First we meet the new head of security (a Tanarian named Kayson) and then we see Boimler hard at work trying to fit in with the pugilistic types on his new …

It's strange energy indeed, as we return to life aboard the Cerritos with Ensign Mariner and her mother Captain Freeman. Things are going great – and they both secretly hate it! You would think they could talk about it, but …

Star Trek: Nemesis. The final TNG-movie watch-along! Released in 2002, the last of the four TNG movies is an uncharacteristically dark affair. It has very little of light-hearted hijinks of the previous three and ends *pretty* sadly. That said, it …

Another Watch-Along! This time, well, we decided to do all the TNG movies and we will not be thwarted! Even if this one is somewhat hard to watch it is still full of the wonder and joy and space (and …

Strap in as we watch through 1996’s Star Trek: First Contact directed by none other than TNG’s own Jonathan Frakes. It’s got everything you could want — space fights, ship fights, the Borg, time travel. And poor Captain Picard must …

Are you ready for a watch along?! Your intrepid hosts, Akie & Stevie, get together to watch the all the TNG movies adding our own... uh... incisive commentary. First up is 1994's Generations – replete with cameos by Scotty, Chekov, …

Season Finale?!?! ALREADY?!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... ok. So, Boimler let's slip that Mariner is the daughter of Captain Freeman. Everyone starts coming to Mariner to curry favor and so she considered applying for a promotion to the USS Sacramento – the s...

Mariner and Captain Freeman's constant arguing comes to a head but instead of throwing Mariner in the brig for subordination, Freeman makes her take mandatory therapy. Mariner thinks it's worthless, but decides she can *really* work through some stuff wh...

Mariner, Tendi, Rutherford and Boimler are thrown in a jail cell and then brought before a tribunal to testify as to the actions of senior crew on a particular stardate in question. Mariner remembers nothing important, Boimler remember nothing other …
