In this episode Kieran, Paul and I kick off #mysummerofstartrek with coverage of 'Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan' from director Nicholas Meyer. And 'what is #mysummerofstartrek' I hear you ask, why it's us covering all the 1980s Star Trek films over the coming month or two (maybe delving into some Trek TV too....).
Just as a bit of backstory to the ep, Paul and Kieran are long-time Trekkies while I am not (I make several X-Men comparisons in this episode as that was my franchise rather than this). Back in 2017 (I think) we covered 'Star Trek: The Motion Picture' as part of our 1970s coverage- that was the first time I had seen that film and likewise, this was my first watch of Wrath of Khan (I watched all the Prime Universe films just prior to recording this episode). So join us next time for..... 'Star Trek III: The Search for Spock'!
Oh, and shoutout to friends of the podcast Spocklight: A Star Trek Podcast who get mentioned during the podcast, who do great coverage of all the Star Trek films and the different TV shows too. Recommended listening!
