  • Starfleet Academy - Mid-Season Check-In with The Captain's Pod

    Starfleet Academy - Mid-Season Check-In with The Captain's Pod
    Feb 15 2026

    EDIT: This is a reposting as there was an error with the initial audio file upload. Specifically, the Pre-Season dsicussion was uploaded by accident.

    David is joined by Ian and Deneé from The Captain's Pod for a mid-season check-in on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, covering episodes one through five. The conversation explores what's working halfway through the season: the show's balancing act between honoring Trek's 60-year legacy and telling genuinely new stories, the ensemble writing that refuses to let Caleb become the sole gravitational centre, and the radical optimism of Captain Kitty as a model of what Starfleet leadership could mean in 2026. Ian and Deneé also share how The Captain's Pod's three-things format is deepening the viewing experience.

    The Pitt - S02E06 - 12 P.M.
    Feb 14 2026

    David and John check in on the most emotionally resonant episode of the season, a quieter, contemplative hour in which the ER finally takes a breath. The conversation centers on the death of Louis and the profound found-family grief it unleashes across the staff, alongside a charged debate about the ethics of keeping an incarcerated patient in an already-stretched emergency department, and what Dr. Santos's recent behavior — including two AI charting errors and a performative stand over patient placement — reveals about her character arc. They also spotlight a nurse-centric episode that gives Perla, Emma, Donnie, Kim, and Dana each a moment to shine, and share an update on the newly created Pitt show guide David has been building for the community.
