There’s a lot happening in the world of Star Trek these days, and even if you’re a loyal reader here at TrekCore, it’s tough to keep up with everything!
That’s why we’re happy to announce our new partnership with the WeeklyTrek podcast, bringing you a recap of each week’s top Trek stories — along with lively discussion, insights, and predictions — in an easy-to-consume audio format.
Let’s be honest: there is a ton of misinformation flooding the internet about the latest news and developments for the Star Trek franchise. Through TrekCore’s partnership with WeeklyTrek — distributed on The Tricorder Transmissions podcast network — we can expand the venues through which our record of honest, fact-based reporting is communicated to fans, cutting through the dubious rumors and flat-out falsehoods which often permeate social media.
WeeklyTrek #118
‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Pays Tribute to Aron Eisenberg’s NogShore Leave podcast co-host Marina Kravchuk returns to WeeklyTrek to discuss a touching tribute to Aron Eisenberg and the character of Nog in this week’s episode of “Star Trek: Discovery.” In addition, we talk about interviews with Blu del Barrio and Ian Alexander about Adira and Gray, the Nimoy family’s support for a new memorial to Leonard Nimoy, and a new Blu Ray release of William Shatner’s Star Trek documentaries.
All that, and our theories about what’s coming next for Star Trek!
Hosted for the last two years by frequent TrekCore contributor Alex Perry, WeeklyTrek brings you all the news you need — curated from TrekCore and other popular news outlets, each providing quality reporting on the Star Trek franchise.
Each week, Alex is joined by a guest to break down each of the week’s stories — from fans who follow the show on social media, convention pals, and professionals like Star Trek science advisor Dr. Mohamed Noor and Star Trek novelist Scott Pearson. (If you’re interested being part of the show, be sure to follow WeeklyTrek on Twitter for notice of available guest slots.)
In addition to discussing all the latest news, at the end of each episode Alex and his guest allow their imaginations to run wild and their speculation to take flight by each offering a wish or theory about where they think Star Trek is heading or what they would like to see in the future — like if Discovery’s jump to the future is setting up the Section 31 series, if other legacy characters will appear on Lower Decks, and new ideas for Trek merchandise from our favorite licensees!
WeeklyTrek covers it all: news on Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, Strange New Worlds, Prodigy, Section 31, merchandise, Star Trek’s cultural impact, major life developments for franchise stars — and of course, any news impacting the nearly 800 episodes of Star Trek that have premiered to date or any of the 13 previous films.
WeeklyTrek is available to subscribe and download each week on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, YouTube, and Spotify — and we’ll be sharing the details of each new episode right here on TrekCore each week if you’re simply just looking to listen in from the web.
