    Better Than Doomscrolling! Star Trek Timelines | Ep. 61 with Izaak from Trek 365

    🖖 What if you could replace doomscrolling with a little Star Trek? This week on Trekommendations, I'm joined by Izaak from Trek 365, who's bringing along a recommendation you can carry around in your pocket — Star Trek Timelines! This mobile game brings together characters, ships and stories from across the Star Trek universe, letting fans collect their favourite characters, build crews and explore the galaxy. Izaak explains why Star Trek Timelines has become his go-to mobile game and why he thinks it's a much better way to spend a few spare minutes than endlessly scrolling through social media. Of course, as always, we find plenty of opportunities to go off on tangents, chat about our shared love of Star Trek and discover a little more about the person behind the recommendation. 🚀 Have you played Star Trek Timelines?

    An Epic Western Star Trek Adventure! Star Trek SNW The High Country Ep. 60 with Todd A Davis

    🖖 What happens when Star Trek meets the Wild West? This week I'm joined by Todd A Davis from the Computer Resume Podcast (@computerResume), who's bringing along a Trekommendation that takes us on an epic adventure with the crew of the Enterprise! 📚 Todd's pick is Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – The High Country by John Jackson Miller. It's a Star Trek novel that blends the familiar characters and spirit of Strange New Worlds with a Western-style adventure. But is this a book that deserves a place on your reading list? As always, we have plenty of fun chatting about Star Trek, taking a few unexpected tangents, and exploring what makes Todd's recommendation worth checking out. 🚀 Whether you're a fan of Strange New Worlds, enjoy Star Trek novels, or are simply looking for your next great Trek adventure, this episode might have just the recommendation for you! 💬 Have you read The High Country?

    Is Star Trek: The Animated Series Unfairly Overlooked? | Ep. 59 with Seán Ferrick

    🖖 Is Star Trek: The Animated Series one of the most overlooked parts of Star Trek history? For Episode 59 of Trekommendations, I'm joined by Seán Ferrick (@sean.ferrick), who makes the case for giving Star Trek: The Animated Series another chance! Often dismissed or forgotten, this animated continuation of the original series brought back familiar characters, explored strange new worlds, and told stories that live-action Trek couldn't always achieve at the time. But does it deserve more recognition? And should more Star Trek fans be giving it a watch? Of course, along the way we enjoy plenty of Star Trek tangents, opinions, and the usual Trekommendations fun! 🎙️ Join us for another great Trek conversation, and let us know: Is The Animated Series an underrated gem, or is there a reason it gets overlooked? ☕ Enjoy the show?

    I'm Scared to Say I Like This! Starfleet Dreams & the AI Dilemma | Ep. 58 with TvGuyGrayson

    🖖 Can something created by AI still capture the heart and soul of Star Trek? This week on Trekommendations, I'm joined by Grayson Thagard (@TVGuyGrayson) from The Prime Detective Podcast, and he's bringing a recommendation that he's almost afraid to admit he enjoys! His Trekommendation is Starfleet Dreams, a series of AI-generated Star Trek videos that somehow manage to capture the nostalgia, optimism, and sense of wonder that made so many of us fall in love with Star Trek in the first place. But there's a problem... They're AI-generated. Grayson finds himself genuinely enjoying these videos, feeling that familiar Star Trek magic and even a renewed sense of hope for the future. But he's also conflicted about the technology behind them and what AI-generated content might mean for creativity and the future of entertainment. Can we appreciate something that makes us feel this way while still questioning how it was created? And what does it say about modern Star Trek when AI-generated videos can evoke such powerful nostalgia? Of course, as always, we get distracted by plenty of Star Trek tangents along the way! 💬 What do you think? Can AI-generated Star Trek content have a place in fandom, or does the technology behind it make it difficult to enjoy? ☕ Support Trekcommendations!Enjoying the show?

    Star Trek Continues: The Spiritual Sequel to The Original Series? | Ep. 57 with Peter Rising

    🖖 Missing that classic Star Trek: The Original Series feeling? Maybe TOS already has a fourth season…For Episode 57 of Trekommendations, I’m joined by Peter Rising from Star Trek Revisited (@star.trekrevisited) for a conversation about classic Trek, modern Trek and a fan production that Peter thinks every Star Trek fan should experience. His Trekommendation is Star Trek Continues. If some of the more recent Star Trek shows haven’t quite worked for you, or you simply miss the look, feel and storytelling of the original Enterprise crew, Peter believes Star Trek Continues does an incredible job of picking up where The Original Series left off. In fact, he goes one step further: should Star Trek Continues be considered the unofficial Season 4 of TOS? We talk about what the series gets right, how it captures the atmosphere of 1960s Trek, why it works as a continuation rather than simply an imitation, and why Peter thinks more Trek fans need to give it a chance.Plus, as always, expect plenty of Star Trek tangents along the way! ☕ Want to support Trekkommendations? You can head over to Buy Me a Coffee and buy me a Raktajino: https://buymeacoffee.com/trekommendations 🖖 What do you think — could Star Trek Continues work as an unofficial Season 4 of Star Trek: The Original Series? #StarTrek #Trekkommendations #StarTrekContinues #StarTrekTOS #TOS #Trekkie #StarTrekFans

Ed’s Trekkommendation is The Center Seat II: 60 Years of Star Trek from Nacelle — a documentary series that dives behind the scenes of Star Trek’s cinematic history and manages to uncover stories and details that even longtime Trek fans may never have heard before.
