The Redshirts continue their watch of the Star Trek series Starfleet Academy with the second episode "Beta Test." SP, Jake and Carolyn discuss Caleb's rule bending noncommittal attitude, ask why Betazoids need to use sign language, where the center of the Federation should be, the mystery of why Tarima chose her college, Academy roommate chaos, all the great Tig moments, and why Jake considers the weak series writing so far. The trio ends the episode with some more fun Star Trek trivia.

It's the offseason for Star Trek Strange New Worlds so we decided to pickup the new Star Trek series Starfleet Academy while we wait. SP, Jake and Carolyn watch with open minds but bring all their bias of their previous trek viewing. They enjoy all the Starfleet nods of both old and new Trek, the 60th anniversary Trek intro, and the ship that is also a school. SP is concerned about teen angst, Jake is concerned about the writings knowing Trek lore, and Carolyn just needs to know what the Athena ship's registry number stands for (NCC 392023). Bear with us as we slightly confuse episodes as we record and try to catch up to real time in the face of real-life obstacles. The trio does bring back some 2016 Star trek trivia which Jake bests us all. Let us know what you think! We'll read your e-mails on the show.

Thank you so much for listening to our coverage of Starfleet Academy.

It is the end of the third season and there's a full crew to discuss if all the individual great moments combine to a great finale. SP, Jake and Carolyn touch on the good, the bad, and the tangents. From Batel and Pike's Inner Light sequence to Doctor Who and timey whimey timelines to the Spock-Kirk mind meld. They also have fun discussing how close of a relative La'An is to Khan, the lunar manure shuttle run, great Doctor Who - Strange New Worlds Character pair-ups, and the Vulcan Doug's best friend. Carolyn gives a brief summary of the 2025 Rose City Comic Con, and the trio get one last game of Star Trek Trivial Pursuit in for the season.
