    CLL 35 - An Old Geek Begins His Star Trek

    CLL 35 - An Old Geek Begins His Star Trek

    On episode 35 of CLL, Jonathan is joined by John Ambrose from the Geek News Now writing team. Ambrose has been a staff writer for GNN for just about one year and he recently published his 100th article for the site. Ambrose has a lot of available spaces on his geeky bingo card and is launching a new project called "An Old Geek Watches" where he tries to catch up on the geeky things in media that he's missed up to this point in his life. He's starting to watch Star Trek from the very beginning to start to fill in those gaps. Jonathan wanted to bring Ambrose on to answer his questions about Trek and to find out what his awareness of the franchise consists of.

    CLL #32 - Past/Future Tense

    Captains' Logs and Lightsabers Podcast is back for its final episode of 2023 and we take a look in the rear view mirror at our favorite Star Trek and Star Wars projects throughout the year. Jonathan waxes poetic about a video game, Chris and Jonathan rehash their adoration for Picard Season 3, and more! The hosts also mention some of the things they're looking forward to in 2024 from both franchises, despite an overall lack of information about what's to come from either franchise. Before Chris and Jonathan discuss past and future things, they catch up the audience on their personal and professional lives, Jonathan talks about seeing John Williams conducting the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and Chris and Jonathan discuss their coverage of Steel City Con for Geek News Now as well as talk about their personal experiences at the December show.

    CLL #31 - Benjamin Sisko

    CLL #31 - Benjamin Sisko

    Geek News Now is "FUELED BY THE FANS" and Captains' Logs and Lightsabers Podcast is too! On Star Trek Day, September 8, Geek News Now posted a photo asking YOU to react to your favorite Starfleet captain. The post was notably missing one Captain Benjamin Sisko and y'all let us know it! There were hundreds of comments asking about Sisko, so seeing as how Star Trek is kinda our thing, the hosts of CLL decided to get together and pick their favorite Sisko episodes and the things that we feel make Sisko a unique personality and a wonderful Starfleet captain! We brought back John Mark Tolly from the GNN shows War of the Stars: A Star Wars Podcast and Star Wars Through The Eyes of a Child to wax poetic about the inimitable Benjamin Sisko!
