Brent Allenbeammeup.libsyn.com

Join Matt as he explores for the first time why is Star Trek the cultural phenomenon that it is today.  But since there are over 740+ hours of Star Trek Episodes and 13 movies, Brent's challenge will be to find the best 150 or so that best represent what Star Trek is, the story of Star Trek, and paint Gene Roddenberry's vision of the Future.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine | Far Beyond the Stars

With the war raging on, a discouraged Sisko is thinking about calling it quits, when the prophets intervene with a vision that recasts the DS9 crew in 1950s America, with Sisko as a struggling science fiction writer facing blatant racism.
