Soda and KLMeri discuss the documentary What We Left Behind: Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

Recorded Date: 2026-06-06

We are diving into Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, the new Star Trek series set in the 32nd century with a fresh class of cadets.  

In this two-parter review, Soda and I summarize the episodes, deliberate upon the new characters and their stories, and - importantly - whether what we watched has the qualities of a good Star Trek show.

Part One Duration: 01:28:14

 We greatly appreciate the Triumvirate of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy - it's why our show is called SpaceTrio!  But as fans, we must ponder: do Triumvirates exist in other Star Trek shows?

Listen in as we explore this unknown... looking for non-TOS Triumvirates!

What's more fun for a fan than contemplating a self-insertion into canon?  

Podcast hosts Soda and KLMeri ask the daunting question, "What Star Trek crew would I join?"  In this exploration, we consider two scenarios: being a new addition to a crew versus replacing an existing character.  

What's your ideal Starfleet job?  Which senior bridge crew would you serve under?  Or are you destined to run the ship?!  With so many options available, the answer can only be... entertaining, to say the least!
