This week, the Red Shirts have a free-flowing discussion about William Shatner's best-selling book Star Trek Movie Memories! We share some of the more interesting little tidbits that Shatner reveals during the course of wrapping up Star Trek the original series and over the duration of seven major motion pictures. We pontificate over the salaries of the Star Trek actors, about how the original treatment for Star Trek V: The Final Frontier was literally a hell of a concept, and Qstorm laments the fact that the original concept for Star Trek VI didn't come to be. Oh, and we debate which is faster, light speed or warp speed!
We also reference the rock creature scene from Galaxy Quest: goo.gl/42pNUZ

In this episode, Qstorm goes rogue and suggests that Star Trek III:The Search For Spock is actually a better film than the hallowed Star Trek II: Wrath Of Khan! Plus, talk of a Wrath Of Khan PREQUEL (or would it be a Space Seed sequel)?? And Big Sexy is in rare form throughout the proceedings! We also talk about the Star Trek III soundtrack by James Horner. Featured tracks from the OST can be found below:
Stealing The Enterprise goo.gl/XVZRxK
From the bouncy strings at the beginning of this cut, when Kirk punches the Starfleet security guard to rescue Bones, all the way to the conclusion when the Excelsior drifts to a halt due to Scotty's sabotage, this track does NOT let up! It's a standout on the soundtrack.
Bird Of Prey Decloaks goo.gl/Wu81Uy
A warrior's track! Very percussive hallmark theme for the Klingons, including unique use of horns (I'm guessing trombones). Another standout.
Wrath of Khan prequel? goo.gl/Xjhjpk

The crew of the U.S.S. Internet discuss the casting of Jason Isaacs as the new captain of the Discovery. Would it have been better to see another female captain or a captain of color? Will it go down well having an African-American female play second fiddle to Isaacs? Will the SJWs lose their minds if the captain dresses down the 1st officer? The Red Shirts boldly GO THERE!

"There's a...thing out there." And this thing first appeared back in 1979. It's designation? Star Trek: The Motion Picture. And after we saw it, some of us wondered, "Where are they going with this...thing?" (Oops, wrong franchise). The Red Shirts turn off all holodeck safety protocols to examine the problems and issues of Star Trek's big screen debut!
Qstorm, Big Sexy, and Craig J. have beamed aboard the USS Internet, opened hailing frequencies on multiple subspace channels and are ready to discuss how they discovered Star Trek, what made them diehard fans, and why they continue to be fans today!
