The Pensky Podcast

This podcast is an attempt to analyze hundreds of hours of Star Trek! From The Original Series to the newly unveiled Star Trek: Discovery, we aim to provide a unique blend of humor, misinterpretation, and conspiracy theory. The Pensky Podcast is going boldly where many have gone before: into an examination of Star Trek!
Excellent

I’ve been going through Star Trek accompanied by Mission Log, which is an adequate enough podcast, but I’m catching up to where they are and wanted to keep going. I searched out another comparably good podcast and this is perfect. Similar tone, very few rabbit trails and excellent commentary. And not so much stupid anti theistic leftist junk as Mission Log either. A big plus for me. Glad to have found this.highly recommended.
Wish TNG podcast was included

Great show. Love listening I just wish the old TNG podcast was included here and on Spotify
Why?

Why is this podcast rated “clean” when profanity abounds? Just wondering.
Middling

The main host, Wes, seems to have become pretty negative on Star Trek as a whole. The co-host, Clay, frequently goes off on tangents about other shows to the point of distraction. He also can’t remember most of the episodes that he has watched, and usually doesn’t remember parts of the episode under discussion that week. Both use profanity seemingly just for the sake of it. Some of the analysis is good and well thought out but you have to wave through the other stuff to get to it.
Modern explicit drab

I wanted this. I wanted to listen to two normal guys talk about Star Trek. I’ve watched them all (except Picard), the content may work but for me the explicatives are an immediate turn off.
It’s great I love Sean

I love that he is not woke. I can’t take that crap. Clay is great. Sean is always great! Penske is not very political not clearly left or right as far as I can tell and that’s all that matters in that department. It’s analytical and funny and not woke like a certain Star Trek Episode reviewer I was listening till I just couldn’t take it anymore. THANK YOU
Pop Culture Discussion with Wit and Intelligence

I love this podcast. Wes and Clay have a great natural rapport and very pleasant, radio-friendly voices. They go through each Star Trek episode, providing intelligent, engaging commentary and they know not to overstay their welcome. It’s just a pleasure to listen to. Even when I don’t agree with them. They make their points coherently and they don’t feel the need to constantly riff or be snarky. (Not everybody can be We Hate Movies or Red Letter Media, and I’m glad these guys understand that). Any “humor” arises out of an organic place. All Trekkers should dig in to this podcast.
Love the podcast (and The Prisoner Podcast as well)

Love the podcast, especially when Clay is on to help with the analysis. I don’t find the other guests to be as organized or prepared for the the discussions. If the host and Clay had another podcast on movies, for instance, I’d definitely listen . Keep up the good work.
Great for anyone

This podcast does a good job of exploring episodes without being too thorough. Wes and Clay keep things light with humor and make a really enjoyable program to listen to.
thoughtful trek
03/07/2019
This is my favorite of all trek shows out there. The hosts are articulate and review each episode not with rose tinted glasses, but with an insightful and objective eye. The two hosts have great chemistry together, with nice banter between them. I recommend it to anyone who has a love of trek. DS9 rules!
