This week it’s all about upcoming new “Star Wars” projects. But first, I comment about the most recent “Starfleet Academy” episodes (I really liked the most recent one – episode 6). Then on to the main topic. There are a fair number of new “Star Wars” TV shows and movies coming over the next 1-2 years. I’m excited to see the new “Maul” series as well as the Mando movie this coming May. I talk about these and other new things coming from one of my most favorite franchises. So come along and here what I have to say about these cool, new “Star Wars” projects.

That’s all for this week. Take care and come back in two weeks for a brand new podcast.

This week it’s a longer show, but a good one I think. I start out by talking briefly about the last two new “Starfleet Academy” episodes. I cover a bit of other recent TV and movies as well as a fun music segment from Vartok on some of the Academy music. My main topic is my recent semi-obsession for finding older, out of print TV shows. Lots of shows from the 1970’s like “Jason of Star Command”, “Ark II”, and “Gemini Man” as well. I talk about some sources for these show like Classics on Point as well as the amazing Archive.org site. If you love these old shows check out these sites and others for finding these lost gems.

That’s it for this time. Stay warm and safe out there!

Well, this week we finally get to talk about the brand new Trek series called: “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.” Two episodes premiered last Thursday and I cover both of them and some background on the show as well as some other general topics. I also have audio comments from some long time friends and listeners to share with you on their thoughts on this new series (which I think is off to a very good start). The podcast is a bit longer than normal this time, but I really enjoyed hearing from people about what they thought. Always feel free to send in audio comments anytime on this series or other things you might be watching or reading, etc.

That’s it for this time. Enjoy the podcast and stay safe and well out there until next time.

This week for the first podcast of 2026 I take a brief nerdy look back at the movies and TV from 2025 that kept us entertained. I cover some of my favorites from the last year and also some I’m still interested to see. It was a pretty solid year for us geeks with things like “Andor” and “Strange New Worlds” on TV and some big comic book films and others too. Overall, I think the entertainment was good – and we needed to be entertained. I hope you enjoy this look back at last year and it sparks some interest to check some things out you might have missed.

I’ll be back in two weeks to look at the brand new “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy” TV show with a review of the first two episodes that are set to air on January 15. I hope you continue to join me for that podcast and for the others this year too as I close in on Podcast #1000! Take care until next time.

For today, Vartok is back with another one of his annual end of the year show’s covering some cool music. Here are some words from the man himself on his brand-new guest spot to close out 2025.

“Stranger Things” is a Netflix American science-fiction horror series created and written by identical brothers Matt and Ross Duffer, debuting July 15, 2016, and running through its final season in 2025.  It follows a group of kids in 1980s Hawkins, Indiana, who confront government conspiracies and supernatural forces from an alternate dimension called the “Upside Down.”  Across five seasons – the story blends childhood friendship, coming-of-age themes, nostalgia, and cosmic horror.  Central to the show’s atmospheric tone is the unmistakable synth score by composers Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein of the band Survive, whose music pays homage to 1980s electronic and horror soundtracks and anchors emotional and suspenseful moments throughout the series.  Treks in Sci-Fi guest podcaster Vartok provides a 47-minute summary of the music to Seasons 1 through 4 of the Music of Stranger Things providing example tracks and his analysis.

Big thanks as always to Vartok for another great podcast. I love this TV series and the music. Looking forward to the series finale on New Year’s Eve.

That’s all for this week. I’ll be back next weekend with my first show of 2026 as I close in on 1000 podcasts! Until next time Happy New Year to all and stay safe and well.

Time for my annual holiday vidcast. This one was fun to do – as always. I focus a bit on “Star Wars” and the 10th anniversary of “The Force Awakens.” I also have a contest winner for my Patreon supporters. Hope you enjoy the show and have a great holiday!

Hope everyone is doing well. This week it’s a classic style podcast with commentary on the DS9 episode from season 4 called “For the Cause.” First up I talk about recent TV movies and TV I’m enjoying along with a few other topics too. Then on to the Trek episode. It’s hard to believe this episode is from almost 30 years ago now. It’s a solid episode with several stories taking place. The main story about Kasidy maybe helping the Maquis is a good story arc. Lots of great stuff in the episode and I enjoyed watching it again and talking about it for you. Next show will be in two weeks and will be a holiday vidcast. Hard to believe Christmas is that close now. Take care until then and stay well.

This week I decided to do a look back and recap of the first four seasons of the great series, “Stranger Things.” Season 5 starts later this week and it seemed like a good idea to take a look back at one of my favorite series. I start out talking a little about some recent TV and movies I’ve been watching and then it’s on to the main topic. I play trailers for each of the previous four seasons of “Stranger Things” I talk a little about each season and give some background on how the series started. I’ve loved this show from the very start, it has great characters and I’m sure the final season with pay-off well for us fans.

That’s it for this time out. Take care of yourself and talk to you again in two weeks!
