    The RIGHT Way to Watch Star Trek? Release Order Changes Everything! | Ep. 54 with Trek Trav

    🖖 What’s the best order to watch Star Trek? This week, Trek Trav joins me with a Trekkommendation that could completely change how you look at the franchise: watch Star Trek in release order. Why? Because in Star Trek, time travel has consequences. Trav’s theory is that whenever our heroes travel into the past, their actions subtly alter what comes afterwards. That means the differences and apparent continuity errors we see between shows might not be mistakes at all — they could be the result of everything that happened in the series released before them. So rather than trying to put Trek into a perfect in-universe chronological order, perhaps the evolving timeline actually makes release order the best way to experience it. We dig into Trav’s theory, continuity, time travel and, as always, plenty of Trek tangents along the way. Does this solve some of Star Trek’s biggest continuity problems? And what order do YOU watch Trek in? #StarTrek #Trekkommendations #TrekTrav #Trekkie #StarTrekFans #StarTrekTimeline

    Trek in the Wild! Finding Your Star Trek People | Ep. 53 with Krysten Lost

    🖖 Sometimes the best Trekommendation isn’t something you watch, read or collect… it’s the people you meet. For Episode 53 of Trekcommendations, I’m joined by Krysten Lost from The Trek Trio (@thetrektrio), and she’s doing something a little different with her recommendation. Krysten wants you to get out there and find Star Trek fans in the wild! Whether it’s at a convention, a local event, a bar, a random conversation or simply spotting someone wearing a Starfleet badge, there’s something brilliant about discovering another Trek fan when you least expect it. We talk about the friendships and connections that can come from a shared love of Star Trek, why meeting fellow fans in person can add a whole new dimension to the fandom, and some of Krysten’s own experiences finding her Trek people. And, because this is Trekommendations, the conversation naturally goes off course several times along the way. 😂 So maybe your next great Star Trek experience isn’t sitting on your shelf or waiting in your watchlist. Maybe you just need to go out and find it in the wild. 🖖 #StarTrek #Trekommendations #Trekkie #StarTrekFans #TrekCommunity #TheTrekTrio

    Was This the Ultimate Star Trek Fan Experience? | Evan Munro-Smith Episode 52

    52 episodes. One full year of Trekcommendations! 🖖🎉 For our first anniversary episode, I’m joined by Evan Munro-Smith (@stupidoldevan), and he’s taking us back to something Star Trek fans can sadly no longer experience for themselves — Star Trek: The Experience in Las Vegas. Part attraction, part museum, part immersive adventure and part place to grab a drink with a Klingon, Star Trek: The Experience was about as close as fans could get to actually stepping into the Star Trek universe. Of course, before we actually get anywhere near the recommendation, there’s plenty of Trek chat, stories, memories and the usual completely unexpected tangents along the way. And this episode is a special one for another reason… Episode 52 means Trekcommendations has officially been running for ONE YEAR! A huge thank you to everyone who has watched, listened, commented, shared an episode, suggested a guest or simply joined me each week. And an equally massive thank you to all the guests who have come on and shared something they love about Star Trek. The whole idea behind Trekcommendations was simple: Star Trek fans recommending great Star Trek things to other Star Trek fans. 52 episodes later, I think we’ve proved there’s still an awful lot left to recommend. Here’s to Year Two. 🖖 #StarTrek #Trekcommendations #StarTrekTheExperience #LasVegas #Trekkie #StarTrekFans #Podcast #StarTrekPodcast

    What Can Sci-Fi Teach Us About Leadership? | Ellen Daniels Recommends To Boldly Go

    What can Star Trek, science fiction and some of our favourite fictional worlds teach us about leadership in the real world? 🖖 For Trekcommendations Episode 51, I’m joined by Ellen Daniels (@ellendaniels_), whose recommendation is To Boldly Go: Leadership, Strategy, and Conflict in the 21st Century and Beyond. It’s a fascinating collection of essays that uses science fiction as a lens for exploring leadership, strategy, decision-making and conflict — taking ideas from the stories we love and asking what they might actually teach us. Ellen explains what makes the book worth picking up, why the combination of sci-fi and serious discussion works so well, and why it might appeal even to people who don't normally find themselves reaching for a collection of essays. Of course, this is Trekcommendations, which means getting to the actual recommendation is only half the adventure! Ellen and I head off on plenty of Star Trek tangents, fandom discussions, random observations and general Trek nonsense along the way. Another recommendation for the ever-growing Trekkommendations list! 📚 Would you read a book using science fiction to explore real-world leadership? 🎙️ Trekcommendations Episode 51🖖 Guest: Ellen Daniels — @ellendaniels_ #StarTrek #Trekcommendations #ToBoldlyGo #ScienceFiction #SciFi #StarTrekBooks #Leadership #Trekkie

    There’s a Star Trek Story for Everyone! | Lauren DeLorean Talks Star Trek Comics

    For this milestone episode, I’m joined by Lauren DeLorean (@lauren_delorean) — and rather than recommending one particular story, Lauren is opening the doors to the enormous world of Star Trek comics. Whether you love the classic crews, want to discover something completely different, or fancy seeing Star Trek explore ideas television simply couldn’t, there’s probably a comic out there for you. Lauren shares some of her favourites and explains why Trek comics are such a fantastic corner of the franchise to explore — from older and slightly more obscure releases to the new stories being published today. But this is Trekcommendations, so naturally we don't get anywhere near the recommendation without going on plenty of Star Trek tangents first! We chat Trek, collecting, fandom and whatever else manages to derail us along the way. 50 episodes in, and there are STILL more Trekkommendations to discover. What Star Trek comic would you recommend to another fan? 🖖 Guest: Lauren DeLorean — @lauren_delorean🎙️ Trekcommendations Episode 50 #StarTrek #StarTrekComics #Trekcommendations #StarTrekPodcast #Trekkie #StarTrekFans #Comics

    The REAL Enterprise Finale? | Star Trek Enterprise Relaunch Series | Nat: @scruffyspaceelf

    Star Trek: Enterprise may have ended on TV… but the story certainly didn’t. For Trekcommendations Episode 49, I’m joined by Nat (@scruffyspaceelf), and her recommendation takes us beyond These Are the Voyages… and into the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch novels. These books pick up the story of Archer and the Enterprise crew, exploring the events and conflicts we never got to see on screen — including the build-up to the Romulan War and the continuing journey towards the birth of the Federation. Nat explains why she thinks the Relaunch series gives Enterprise fans something much closer to the continuation — and finale — the show deserved. And, as always with Trekcommendations, the recommendation is only part of the fun. Expect plenty of Star Trek tangents, opinions, laughs and general Trek nonsense along the way. 🖖 If you were disappointed by the Enterprise finale, are the Relaunch novels worth giving a try?

    Star Trek Double Helix – When a Virus Brings Everyone Together. Scott from @starfleet.archives

    What happens when a mysterious virus threatens the Federation and the solution spans six interconnected novels? This week on Trekommendations, I'm joined by Scott from @starfleet.archives, who shines a spotlight on one of Star Trek's most ambitious literary projects: Star Trek: Double Helix. We explore why this crossover series deserves far more attention, how it brings together characters from across the Star Trek universe, and why its central mystery keeps readers turning pages from beginning to end. Scott explains what makes the series so special, who it's perfect for, and why it remains one of his favourite Trek recommendations. As always, though, the recommendation is only part of the fun. We also go off on plenty of entertaining Star Trek tangents, chat about collecting, fandom, favourite stories, and celebrate everything we love about the Final Frontier. If you're looking for your next Star Trek read—or you've somehow missed Double Helix—this episode might just convince you to add all six books to your reading list. 🖖 Guest: Scott (@starfleet.archives)📚 Trekommendation: Star Trek: Double Helix🎙️ Podcast: Trekommendations What's your favourite Star Trek book series?

    The Enterprise Flight Suit | Is It Star Trek's Most Wearable Uniform? Ep 47 Synthgirl Starlight

    Can a Star Trek uniform actually be comfortable enough to wear all day... or even sleep in? In Episode 47 of Trekommendations, I'm joined by Synthgirl Starlight, who doesn't recommend a book, comic or episode this time—instead, she's shining a spotlight on one of the most practical pieces of Star Trek costuming ever made: the Enterprise NX-01 Flight Suit. We chat about why this iconic jumpsuit stands out from Star Trek's many uniforms, what makes it so comfortable, and why it's become a favourite for fans, cosplayers and collectors alike. Whether you're wearing it to a convention or lounging at home, this might just be the most wearable uniform in the franchise. As always, the recommendation is just the beginning. Expect plenty of fun Star Trek tangents, laughs, and passionate Trek conversation along the way. What's your favourite Star Trek uniform?
