What is, as Shakespeare definitely didn't write, such love between a man and a cloud? Well, let's answer that question as we tackle Metamorphosis. And to help judge the relationship between humanity and water vapour we have Jon D Arthur!
How does the episode manage to juggle its themes? Can the episode bear the weight of how significant Zephram Cochrane is going to become in the lore? Is it, in fact, any good? Plus in Recommendations we have a movie and two video games, one obscure and one very much not.

We're back! After taking a festive break, Talking Trek is back among the stars and ready to discuss... er, I, Mudd. And to join us in this tale of robot sex women and comedy shenanigans we have Lenny Burnham returning to the podcast!
Is the return of Harry Mudd something worth celebrating? Does the comedy of the episode land? And how do the gender politics stand up sixty years after the original transmission?
Plus in Recommendations we have a movie, a sci-fi TV show and a thriller from Apple TV.

It's time for a Halloween special (just in time for Christmas) as Star Trek goes - allegedly - spooky with "Catspaw". And we have a welcome return to the podcast from Sarah Gulick, here to make sure that nothing gets too scary (the fluffy kitten does help with that as well, to be fair...).
How effective is this as a Halloween episode? Does the camp factor outweigh the fear factor? And what of Alfred Hitchcock's Star Trek? Plus in Recommendations we have a game and two TV shows.

Roaming alien sock from another galaxy threatening civilizaiton, you say? Why it must be time for "The Doomsday Machine"! A powerful entity needs a powerful extra podcaster, so Carl Garcia is back for a second stab at TTTY.
How does the titular Machine work as an advesary? Is Decker a credible threat to the situation? And does the episode deserve to be top-tier?
Plus in Recommendations we have a movie, a novel, and a remastered video game.

The 1960s are left behind in favour of the 2020s this week as TOS is carefully placed to one side for coverage of Lower Decks Season 4. And to join us on our animated adventure we have Jonathan Callan!
Does Season 4 improve of Season 3s generally weaker reception? How does new regular character T'Lyn fit in with the crew? And can the season stick its landing?
Just one Recommendation this week because of the episode length but what can it be?

Talking Trek To You
JG and Kev have been podcasting together for years. But having previously discussed audio adventures, this time they're turning their attention to the visual medium and going through the classic, original Star Trek series. JG has been watching the show his whole life. Kev is coming to it completely fresh. Together - along with a wonderful assortment of guest stars - they'll explore the original series and everything it does! A noob and an expert - what could go wrong?
