‘Star Trek: Khan’ Audio Drama Review + Interviews With Co-Writer And Cast

Listen to this episode from The TrekMovie.com Star Trek Podcast Network on Spotify. [Khan review starts at 19:42] Anthony and Laurie are joined by TrekMovie reviewer Dénes House this week. They start with a quick look at the news—there’ll be a Star Trek panel and Starfleet Academy experience at New York Comic Con, Ethan Peck and Paul Wesley talk about the Spirk mind meld in the Strange New Worlds season 3 finale, Kate Mulgrew is still mad about the cancellation of Prodigy, Gates McFadden has a fun take on TNG’s “Sub Rosa,” and Jeri Taylor gets honored at last Sunday’s Emmy Awards. Then the trio is ready to talk about the new audio drama Star Trek: Khan. They review the first two episodes with all agreeing it is an excellent new part of Star Trek in terms of storytelling, performances, and production. We also play interviews from Khan co-writer Kirsten Beyer and stars Naveen Andrews (Lost) and Wrenn Schmidt (For All Mankind). They wrap up with bits of the week, including Rebecca Romijn’s Star Trek role as a clue on Jeopardy, the fun Target Audience reaction podcast watching Star Trek for the first time, and Laurie promoting her upcoming moderation of an online panel with Voyager’s Robert Duncan McNeill.
