    Star Trek in the Wild

    Positively Trek 282: Star Trek in the Wild Making Trek Connections in Unexpected Places Sometimes as Star Trek fans, it can feel like we’re all alone in our fandom. Certainly, online spaces have changed this quite a bit, but in our day-to-day lives, it often feels like we are the only Star Trek fan around. But then, the unexpected happens and you make a surprise connection with another Trekkie, Trekker, or casual Star Trek fan, and it suddenly feels like you’ve made a friend for life! In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan discuss those times when we’ve made surprise connections with fellow Star Trek fans “in the wild.” We also talk about some stories that were shared with us in the Star Trek Forever Facebook group!

    Book Club: Martha Landon Does Do a Judo Flip

    Positively Trek 281: Book Club: Martha Landon Does Do a Judo Flip Greg Cox - Lost to Eternity In 1986, Dr. Gillian Taylor of the Cetacean Institute in Sausalito, California, seemingly disappeared off the face of the Earth. In 2024, a true crime podcaster tries to get to the bottom of the nearly 40 year-old cold case. In 2268, a missing scientist threatens to spark open war between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. And in 2292, three galactic powers vie for the favor of the advanced and ancient Osori civilization. What do these events all have in common? And how will they help solve the longest missing-persons case in the history of Star Trek? In this episode of the Positively Trek Book Club, Dan Gunther is joined by guest host Chrissie De Clerck-Szilagyi in welcoming author Greg Cox to the show to discuss his latest novel: Star Trek: The Original Series: Lost to Eternity. We talk about the three different time periods that make up the story and share our thoughts on the novel. The first part of the episode is spoiler-free, but be warned: we get into spoilers later on, so listener beware!

Enterprise, shirking his responsibilities back at Starfleet Command to remain aboard the ship for her shakedown cruise. The cruise is interrupted by the sudden appearance of a doppelganger of Nyota Uhura from a parallel universe, on a mission to apprehend a man responsible for multiple genocides. Kirk and his crew must team with this alternate Uhura to stop a man who looks exactly like Chekov before he allies with the Romulans to develop a devastating weapon!

    Beautiful Star Trek Starships

    Positively Trek 278: Beautiful Star Trek Starships Our Favorites, and the People who Designed Them Over the past 58 years, Star Trek has presented us with a gorgeous vision of the future. A huge part of that Trek aesthetic is the design of the starships that carry their crews boldly to the stars. From the very beginning with Matt Jefferies’ iconic design of the U.S.S. Enterprise, every starship that has come after has carried on the legacy of his original work of art. In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan discuss the starships of Star Trek. We talk about our favorite designs, as well as the people whose hard work went into bringing them to life on our screens. We also discuss other modes of transportation within the Star Trek universe, and expand our discussion to ships of other notable franchises.
