Trektinis Episode 36: Religion & Star Trek, Now Available!

John, Jessie, & Mike discuss the major religions in Star Trek.

I must apologize for 2 things.  We recorded this episode 2 weeks ago, but I didn't have time to edit and post it until just now.  Also, in the episode I refer to the ancient Vulcan religion as being Monotheistic.  I intended to say "Polytheistic".

Enjoy the episode!

Trektinis Episode 37: Time's Arrow Review Available!

John and Jessie review the TNG episode "Time's Arrow" and drink "Headless Datas".

Also, this podcast was recorded about a week ago, so our Trek News is out of date regarding Walter Koenig's son.  We regret that Andrew Koenig was found dead after apparently committing suicide.  Trektinis sends our condolences to the family.
