Awesome Show!

Really liked the topic and focus on the deeper thoughts about the Star Trek Universe! My knowledge only stemmed from the Kelvin Timeline, so being able to hear these inputs helped motivate me to watch the original series! Thanks! Definitely recommend the show!

Beyond Terrible

“The Omega Particle” is a podcast for persons who think that “Star Trek Beyond” is the pinnacle of “Star Trek.” I regret the precious moments I wasted listening to this garbage. 🖖
