Positively Trek 342: When Did Star Trek Fans Lose Their Imaginations?When Creativity Gives Way to Complaining The change in the Klingons’ appearance. Do Romulans have head ridges or not? Is Klingon blood red or pink? Just how powerful are Betazoid senses? And why exactly does a French Starship captain sound British? Over its 60 years of history, Star Trek has given us many interesting and perplexing questions. As fans, we have come up with theories, hypotheses, and outright speculation to make it all fit. But in recent years, it sometimes feels like that fun theorizing has given way to complaining and cries of “the writers don’t know what they’re doing!” Why is that? In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Dan and Barry discuss this issue and ask themselves “when did Star Trek fans lose their imaginations?” Show page: <a href="http://www.positivelytrek.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.positivelytrek.com/</a>Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628" rel="nofollow">https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628</a>BlueSky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social" rel="nofollow">https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social</a>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek</a> Help support the podcast!

Positively Trek 338: Take Another Look…Star Trek Episodes That Hit Different Years Later When you’ve been a Star Trek fan as long as Dan and Barry have, you have fond memories of some of your favourite episodes from years past. As you grow older, revisiting those episodes can illuminate just how much you, and even the world and the people around you, have changed. In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Dan and Barry talk about those episodes that hit a little different when we re-watch them decades after they first aired. Sometimes they mean more to us, and sometimes… a little less. We discuss episodes from Star Trek, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise.  Show page: <a href="http://www.positivelytrek.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.positivelytrek.com/</a>Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628" rel="nofollow">https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628</a>BlueSky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social" rel="nofollow">https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social</a>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek</a> Help support the podcast!
