This week we welcome Will Tristram, host of The Definitive Word and For Those About To Rock, aboard the station to discuss great genre films that were totally betrayed by their descendants.

Here’s another blast from the past while we try to work out the kinks in our recording schedule. On our third show ever Mark (El Diablito) joined us to talk about how the world of Science Fiction deals with, or fails to deal with gays and lesbians. Sorry about the audio and editing, but I was still figuring this podcasting stuff out.

This week we talk about those transformative events in a geek’s life, like conventions, computers, Rocky Horror, etc. that make us the nerds we are today.

This week we deconstruct, dissect, and analyze Star Trek: Voyager.

In the second half of our discussion of movies based on comic books we are joined by Rick’s friend Dave who knows a helluva lot more about this stuff than the Admiral.

We finally get our monthly update from Daniel at the Kennedy Space Center off the ground with a discussion of the NASA budget, the Ares launch vehicle, The Hubble Space Telescope, Spirit and Opportunity, and finally the new Star Trek Online MMORPG.

This week we welcome Mr. Kennedy back with the first half of a discussion of movies based on comic books.

While Kennedy is on assignment we are joined by Ari (kyprieth) for a discussion of gender roles and their use, or misuse in Science Fiction.

This week, after about twenty minutes of our usual banter and news, we close the lid and take our Avatars out for a walkabout on Pandora. Did we like the mega-blockbuster? You might be surprised.

On the first Admiral’s Table of 2010 I sit down with Amy (amezzeray) to talk about the final episodes of the David Tennant era.

While we move inexorably into 2010, here’s a final glance back into 2009. Last month a strange glowing spiral lit the night sky over Norway sparking much debate, and ultimately a Russian mea culpa. This week we talk about UFOs, monsters, and what we do, or should believe in.

Greetings, Folks,
We at the Starbase want to wish you all a very safe and happy holiday season. We’re going on some much-needed shore leave, so there won’t be any shows til after the New Year, but we’ll use this breather to come back stronger than ever in 2010. So from all of us to all of you, live long and prosper, and may the Force be with you.

As our Christmas present to you, here is the stuff that was too screwed up or silly to put in the final shows. Enjoy.

Wow! It’s been one year already. Grab a beer, glass of wine, or whatever festive beverage you prefer and join us in our celebration.

Due to holiday scheduling conflicts here is one from the vault. How well does Science Fiction deal with the subject of religion?

This week we are joined by Podcaster, amateur historian, and pundit Dan Carlin for a talk about what the future, as seen by Star Trek and other SF movies and TV shows, might entail. You can find Dan’s wonderful podcasts, Hardcore History and Common Sense with Dan Carlin, at http://dancarlin.com/

After battling with gremlins both internal and ex, we bring you, better late than never, you! We dedicate this show to listener feedback, and boy do you guys feed back.

The guests have all left, and we relax and chat about TV shows that may, or may not have been cancelled before they should have been.

For the second week in a row we are honored to have a very special guest on the station. Harrison Solow(nee Yvonne Fern), author of Gene Roddenberry: The Last Conversation joins us to speak of Gene, Star Trek, fandom, and her deep and abiding love for Wales.

Herb Solow, Executive in Charge of Production on Star Trek, TOS joins us to talk about what it was like creating one of the most iconic television shows ever, dispels some myths and rumors, and gives us some new insights on some of the legends of Trek lore.

This week we are joined by Chris(Miss Kitty from the forums) to talk about collectibles…action figures…you know, toys.

This scaaaaary, spooooky week Jakob and Mandi of Nerd Hurdles join us for a discussion of ghosties, and ghoulies, and long-leggedy beasties.

This week Karen, Kennedy, and Rick discuss two seminal films of the Science Fiction genre: The Day The Earth Stood Still and Forbidden Planet.

Why do so many Science Fiction movies and TV shows focus on war, weapons, and aggression?

This week we talk about the glut of remakes that fast approaches.
