October 03, 2019 05:09 - 51 minutes - 47.6 MB

This week, we're going back to school to study education (or the lack thereof) in the Star Trek universe! Every Starfleet officer is an alum of the same university, Starfleet Academy, and the egalitarian, scarcity-free world of the Federation would be a learning paradise, so why do we see classrooms so infrequently on Trek shows?

September 05, 2019 02:26 - 55 minutes - 76.4 MB

This week, we're talking about a different kind of "canon" as Dr. James McGrath joins the show to talk about religion in Star Trek! Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future had no room for faith or superstition, but is a galaxy without God and spirituality desirable or even plausible?

August 23, 2019 04:23 - 52 minutes - 59.6 MB

This week, we continue our examination of representation in Trek as Thad Hait joins the show to talk neuroatypicality in Star Trek. Characters like Spock, Data, and Seven of Nine often struggle with expressing their emotions and when relating to their fellow crew members, things that many Trek fans on the autistic spectrum find all too familiar.

August 09, 2019 06:24 - 1 hour - 91.2 MB

This week, we're putting Trek on trial for its treatment of female characters! Star Trek is supposed to be a humanist utopia, but how close does it get to actually offering equal opportunity and genderblindness?

Jarrah Hodge is on hand to run the numbers and to point out that female creators mean female characters, to examine Trek's depiction of ...
