In this episode of That Star Trek Podcast, the hosts dive into the Season 4 premiere of Strange New Worlds.

In this episode of That Star Trek Podcast, we’re breaking down the high-stakes double-feature of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy episodes 9 and 10. As the first season hurtles toward its conclusion, we dive deep into the mounting tensions among the cadets, the evolving mystery of the 32nd-century setting, and the explosive character arcs that come to a head in these penultimate chapters. Join us as we analyze every tactical maneuver and heartfelt confession of the big finale.

Sylvia Tilly comes on board to help the cadets unpack their lingering trauma through the power of theare. Meanwhile, SAM’s glitches are becoming too much to handle, and helping her may cause The Doctor to confont his long-buried demons.

Join us for our discussion of the latest episode of Starfleet Academy, “The Life of the Stars.”

In this week’s episode we dive into Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’s seventh chapter, “Ko’Zeine,” where the cadets head into a long break and find themselves facing the hardest mission yet: figuring out who they are off duty. We talk about Darem’s unexpected cultural clash and what it means for his future, Genesis’s struggle with expectations and identity, and how this low-key but emotionally rich installment gives us a moment of quiet growth after the chaos of the Miyazaki crisis. It’s the episode that proves discovering yourself can be just as dramatic as saving the galaxy.

This bonus episode of That Star Trek Podcast was recorded live at Magic City Con in July of 2025. Many of the Infinite Potato Alliance hosts were in attendance, and it was the first time a lot of them had ever met in person. During that weekend they hosted many panels together including this one. Shawn and Scott sat down and discussed the beta canon media that they have enjoyed since childhood. This includes Star Trek video games, novels, and comics that are not usually included in the lore of the franchise.

This is a bonus episode and the panel will be back soon to continue talking about this season of Starfleet Academy. Until then, enjoy!
