    Back in the Saddle Again
     
    (See, this is a Western episode and "Back in the Saddle" is a song sung by a cowb...never mind.)

     

    Some might say that it's been a long road gettin' from there to here. They might also say it's been a long time, but our time is finally near.

     

    Well, that time is NOW! That's right Geeks, the Flagship has entered standard orbit and is beaming down a classic Star Trek episode this week: "Spectre of the Gun."

     

    Bill & Dan have loved this episode since childhood and think it gets unfairly maligned with a good portion of Season 3. They'll tell you why everyone else is wrong and why you should give it another watch!

     

    Plus, a recap of Trek Talks 3, new FanSets product news, and a celebration of 9 years of The Biggest Little Show in the Alpha Quadrant in the episode Bill's wife Kelly calls, "Episode Three Hundred and IT'S ABOUT F***ING TIME!"

From true Trekkies for true Trekkies!

I LOVE this podcast! Both Bill and Dan are hilarious and fun! I love the banter between the two, who pick and diss on each other like loving blood brothers; it’s AWESOME! 🤣 Love and appreciate how they try to see the positive in EVERYTHING Star Trek, especially when there’s so much negativity out there these days. Keep up the good work, gents. Live long and prosper! 🖖🏻

Love the Show!

DS9 has been my favorite Trek since I first watched it on cable back in the day. Man, it is a warm hug and a cup of coffee on a cold day. My only true feeling of friendship outside of family. Love that you give it so much love. I feel that same connection with this show now. My kind of humor, my kind of Trek talk. It’s like I am having a conversation with great friends about something dear to us that nobody else in my life gets.

I wept tears of joy listening to your story about DS9 pulling you back from the brink in your darkest hour. Joy, because we made it back. Trek was the Me too, my friend. Me too. DS9 is my road guard. Army Veteran with PTSD. Can you guess my favorite episode?

Thanks for the hard work and for keeping me sane at my work. Wish y’all were hosting Mission Log…I love Mission Log too, but you guys are my favorite hosts. Wanna talk every Ep, every show with ya! I am rambling…have a good night.

Star Trek 2.0

This show has both challenged my ideas and opened my mind to so many new perspectives. From listening to actors talk about character development to challenging trivia, I really have come to love these guys. Also, I’m so happy to be going back through DS9 again!
