They talk about the plans for the Star Trek Universe panel at New York Comic-Con, a Strange New Worlds production update, the new Lower Decks clip, and the arrival of the show’s season 4 on YouTube & Pluto. They discuss comments from Michael Dorn about being offered a role on Discovery and why he said “yes” to Picard,  Zachary Quinto’s thoughts on playing Spock again, James McAvoy’s revelation that he was offered a role in a J.J. Abrams Trek movie, and Scott Bakula’s opinion on the wo sides of Star Trek fandom. They round up the recent political efforts by Star Trek celebs and dig into some of the details from Laurie’s interview with Jonathan Del Arco. They lament the end of Star Trek Explorer magazine and sing the praises of Nana Visitor’s new book. The podcasters wrap up with Star Trek references in The Simpsons season premiere, a redacted section from a Jan. 6th court filing, and a Beverly Crusher cocktail.
