The TrekConvention Podcast with reviews and updates of:

Upcoming Trek and pop-culture fan events and conventions with our favourite Trek headlines.

It's Friday October 4th 2024 so let's get to it.

Number One:
If there was any doubt as to the popularity of Star Trek Prodigy, Red Shirts Always Die reports that "Season one topped over one million viewers in six months on Netflix." Which seems pretty popular to me.

Number Two:
As an avid collector I'm was thrilled to read Gizmodo's feature "Picard’s Famous Tea Cup Is Coming Back, Years After It Was Discontinued." My only concern is how many I can afford.

Number Three:
While I've been a subscriber on and off for several years, Trek Movies announcing "Star Trek Explorer magazine's Final Issue, after 30 years" left me, a bit sad.

Number Four:
Star Trek Beyond was not a big box office hit, so Game Rants article "Who Is Jaylah?" Is a great read for any fan who needs a refresher on this new Star Trek character.

And finally, Number Five:
The only thing the Internet loves more than a list, is a quiz. And Handi tv's DAILY STAR TREK QUIZ ''CHARLIE eX'' will really put your Trek trivia knowledge to the test.

That's all for this episode.
As always you can find all these articles and the latest updates at TrekConvention.com and, of course, at TrekHeadlines.com. - 
Be sure to check back next week for five more to watch. 

Until next time - go boldly.
