Woke Since 1966

Fran and Tamia are taking the word back. Before it was weaponized, "woke" had roots — Black American roots. In this episode the Sistas trace the word's origins, its appropriation, and then prove what Trek fans already know — Star Trek has been unapologetically woke since 1966. From the classic episodes you already know to the unsung gems you may have missed. 🎧Subscribe and don't miss a single episode of Season 6!   ______________________________________________ NAACP 2023 Resolution 🌐 Website: https://naacp.org/resources/reclaiming-word-woke-part-african-american-culture Associate Producers: Sailor Marj, Karen Dramera, Stephanie Baker & Chris Garis  Logo: Dena Massenburg  Music: "Poppin off the Rip" by RAGE (YouTube Audio Library) The SyFy Sistas Podcast — named 2025 Best All-Around Star Trek Podcast by TrekMovie Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/syfysistas  Subscribe, Like, Share: linktr.ee/syfysistas  Find us on The Trek Geeks Podcasts Network: trekgeeks.com FanSets — Our pins have character.

Spectre of the Gun

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!"

Visiting the Past and Discovering the Future We kick off our 2026 in a big way as we celebrate the 60th Anniversary Year of Star Trek with a show built for fans who love both the history and the future of the franchise. This premiere is all about connection. Connection to the real places where Star Trek was made and connection to where the universe is headed next. First up, we're joined by Larry "Dr. Trek" Nemecek and Teras Cassidy from Geek Nation Tours to talk about Exploring Trek shooting locations. From iconic West Coast filming sites to the unforgettable landscapes of Nevada's Valley of Fire, we'll dive into what makes these locations so special and why standing where Star Trek history was made hits differently in an anniversary year. If you've ever wanted to walk in the footsteps of your favorite crews, this conversation is for you. Then we shift gears to the future with a spoiler-light discussion of the premiere of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. We'll share our impressions of the first two episodes, what immediately grabbed us, and where the series feels like it's boldly going. From tone to characters to themes, we'll break down what's working and what we're excited to see develop as the season unfolds. It's the perfect way to launch a new season of Trek Geeks: Thursday Night Geeks. Part celebration, part exploration, and part thoughtful fandom chat with friends.

Unpopular Star Trek Opinions

AUDIO FROM THURSDAY NIGHT GEEKS Bill and Dan are boldly going where few fans dare to tread: straight into the heart of Star Trek controversy. Everyone has a hot take, but not all opinions are created equal—and tonight, they're putting theirs on display. From the final frontiers of franchise canon to the captains, crews, and creative choices that divide the fandom, no corner of the Trek universe is safe. Expect a lively and honest conversation that challenges long-held beliefs and re-examines the things we all thought were settled. The guys are pulling no punches as they each share five of their most unpopular Star Trek opinions—and believe us, some of them might raise a Vulcan eyebrow or two. Whether it's about storylines, characters, or what should (or shouldn't) count as "real Trek," these takes are bound to get people talking. Of course, it's all in good fun. Thursday Night Geeks is a celebration of everything Star Trek—disagreements and all. So pour a raktajino, strap in, and get ready to yell at your screen (or maybe nod in silent agreement). You might not agree with everything said... but you'll definitely have an opinion about it. Be sure to hang around after the end theme for a brand-new outake from Bill and Dan recorded after this episode livestreamed! ======================================= Music for Trek Geeks is provided by the world's greatest Star Trek band, FIVE YEAR MISSION! They're recording one song for each episode of the original Star Trek. Get all their albums at fiveyearmission.net!
