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 11th 2024, so, let's get to it.

-Number, One:
If you've ever wanted to visit the planet Vulcan. Slash Film's latest feature. "Gene Roddenberry's Original Star Trek Pitch, Gave Spock A Familiar Home Planet," may be a bit of a disappointment.

-Number Two:
Red Shirts Always Die's latest article asks the eternal question; "Are we about to see a lot more James T. Kirk in season four of Star Trek Strange New Worlds?" Which raises the question, is there such a thing as too much James T. Kirk.

-Number Three:
While ScreenRant's article "the eight Non Vulcan Star Trek Characters that Can Do Spock's Nerve Pinch" isn't a quiz, but before you read the article see if you can name the 8.

-Number Four:
If you've ever wanted to walk on to the bridge of the Enterprise D, you may be in luck. What Culture, reports the 2025 Universal's, Fan Fest Nights will include Tours of Star Trek Picardd’s Enterprise-D Bridge Set.

-And finally, Number Five:
I guess you have to take the good with the bad. And since the Internet loves ranked lists, Den of Geeks feature, The Worst Star Trek Episodes Ever, Ranked. Is definitely the bad.

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. -

Until next time - go boldly.
