About this episode

Anthony and Laurie discuss the latest Star Trek news and review the episode 'Ko’Zeine', featuring interviews with George Hawkins and Bella Shepard.

[Review starts at 25:34 / Interviews start at 49:31] Anthony and Laurie talk through the latest news: The screenwriter of Star Trek: Nemesis says Data did NOT die in movie, there’s a new documentary out about George Takei, and IDW is launching new comic book series for Trek’s 60th anniversary. They also round up some Starfleet Academy news: That comic book in last week’s episode was not made by AI, Paul Giamatti has hopes for Nus Braka’s future, and Kate Mulgrew has choice words for anyone who insults Holly Hunter’s Chancellor Ake. Then it’s time to review “Ko’Zeine,” which Tony & Laurie both found to be a little weak, and play Tony’s new interviews with George Hawkins (Darem) and Bella Shepard (Genesis).
