Join Matt as he explores for the first time why is Star Trek the cultural phenomenon that it is today.  But since there are over 740+ hours of Star Trek Episodes and 13 movies, Brent's challenge will be to find the best 150 or so that best represent what Star Trek is, the story of Star Trek, and paint Gene Roddenberry's vision of the Future.

This is a really good podcast, with a great concept behind it, especially for those of us who have trouble with the bad episodes.  But what really makes this podcast stand out is the hosts.  They have a great chemistry and bounce off of each other naturally, which makes this podcast not only informative, but fun to listen to.

Good Podcast and Better Hosts

I started listening to this show because of the Tales from Godric’s Hollow podcast. I love the idea of this show because I’ve wanted to watch the Star Trek series for a while, but the hundreds of episodes is incredibly intimidating. I decided to join in with watching the episodes alongside you guys. I’m not hooked on the Star Trek yet, but I really enjoy your podcast and watching the episodes alongside y’all.

Great show!
