Transporter Room 3: The Star Trek Podcast

New Star Trek: Picard poster? Check. Picard’s new dog? Check. Kirk being a surly jerk? Check AND mate! This week we revisit a classic Trek episode, “The Enterprise Incident,” and debate the effectiveness of Kirk’s plan to be a dick so he can steal a cloaking device. Plus, SDCC predictions!

Star Trek lost one of its unsung greats this week. Peter Allan Fields, who passed away on June 19, had a TV resume full of some of the best episodes Trek has ever produced, including The Next Generation's "The Inner Light" and DS9's "Duet" and "In the Pale Moonlight." This week, we look back on his career and one of his best/most underrated hours, "Blood Oath."

This week is a big one for Star Trek. It's the 20th anniversary of Deep Space Nine's epic (and out there) series finale, "What You Leave Behind." How well does it hold up? Listen and find out…

It’s Trek Christmas today: We have the first teaser for Star Trek: Picard -- which is basically Star Trek: Wine Country. And we also look back on Next Generation’s series finale -- “All Good Things...” -- on its 25th Anniversary. (Time to feel old, everyone.)

Andrew Robinson and Armin Shimerman, the actors responsible for creating two of Star Trek's best characters ever, sit down with Transporter Room 3 to celebrate the release (finally!) of the Deep Space Nine documentary, What We Left Behind. You're gonna love what they have to say!

Nana Visitor (Major Kira!) and showrunner Ira Steven Behr beam in to TR3 to discuss What We Left Behind, the Deep Space Nine documentary! Plus, we discuss our thoughts on the doc...

Special guest Matt Fowler joins us for a recap of Star Trek: Discovery Season 2, one of the best (and most ambitious) seasons of Trek ever.

Star Trek: Discovery's Season 2 finale, "Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2," was the Star Trek equivalent of one of Stefon's clubs... It has EVERYTHING!

We're back with a quick recap of Star Trek: Discovery's Season 2 penultimate episode, "Such Sweet Sorrow." And then Disco production designer Tamara Deverell beams in to tell us how she pulled off bringing the NCC-1701's bridge to life!

Star Trek: Discovery goes where no Trek show has gone before… "Through the Valley of Shadows" gets all timey-wimey with time crystals, the return of L'Rell and Jett Reno, two-fisted phaser action and more!

Michael and her mom are finally reunited and it feels so, um, sad? Plus, a tiny update on the Picard show and Alex Kurtzman reveals how CBS plans to roll out their slate of upcoming Trek shows.

If there was ever a game of "What Will the New Star Trek Discovery Episode Bring This Week" bingo, you likely won big time if you picked "Saru singing hymnals"...

“Project Daedalus” is a special Star Trek: Discovery episode, as it finally reveals Airiam’s backstory and, in doing so, tugs on our heartstrings in a way Trek has rarely done before. We break down why and how, and Airiam herself, actress Hannah Cheesman, also beams in to discuss the episode!

Discovery just pulled Star Trek's version of 2018's Halloween by giving us a sequel to the first Trek ever. That's right, we've been beamed back to "The Cage," and Disco brought the singing plants with them. So how good is the episode? Listen and find out.

In the latest TR3, we delve into this week’s episode of Discovery, i.e. the one where Burnham goes home and hangs out in a cemetery crypt while Tyler and Pike fight one of the squids from The Matrix!

This week, Doug Jones himself beams on down to chat all things Star Trek: Discovery and to break down the new Saru-centric episode, “The Sound of Thunder.”

This week, you get double the bang for your buck (gold-pressed latinum?) as we break down what worked and what didn’t (sorry/not sorry May) in Disco's “Saints of Imperfection.”

TrekCore’s admiral (vice admiral? Chancellor?) Ken Reilly joins us to talk the newest Discovery episode, “An Obol for Charon” -- aka “The One Where Tilly Gets Eaten by Phlegm From the Upside Down.” And, boy, do we have opinions.

This week’s Discovery is basically Game of Thrones, Klingon Style… and we like it! But not as much as we like having L’Rell herself, Mary Chieffo, beam in to discuss the episode with us!

Thanks, Star Trek: Discovery Season 2. You gave us your second episode on the day of our 150th! So we're celebrating like its spring break on Risa with a review of "New Eden." But also we have some fun interviews with -- wait for it -- the entire cast of Discovery as they tease the new season.
