Being mentioned in the same post as Josh “Mayor of #CrimeCon” Mankiewicz? I do not have that kind of rizz (am I using that correctly kids?), but I’m absolutely taking the compliment.

🖖And for the record: David's @letstalkabouttreks.bsky.social remains one of my favorite pods. Go give it some ❤️.

Am I doing this right?

If you see this, post a Star Trek!
“Promotional poster for the Apple TV+ series Long Way Up. Two men stand beside heavily loaded adventure motorcycles on a dusty desert road with mountains in the distance. Ewan McGregor is on the right, Charley Boorman on the left. Large text in the center reads ‘Long Way Up,’ with the words ‘Find your outlet’ written in small script to the right.”

👮 In 1994, an iconic actor needed police protection, not from fame, but from fantasy.

Walking the streets of #GreenwichVillage with my own voice in my ears is WILD! Another @trek365.bsky.social episode is out, and it was a trip to experience it in the middle of #NewYork. Thanks, Izaak for letting me be a guest again!
A man stands on a rainy street corner in Greenwich Village, smiling and wearing earphones and a black hoodie over a T-shirt. He holds up his phone, which displays the Trek 365 podcast artwork. Behind him, a yellow taxi and several pedestrians move through the wet intersection, surrounded by classic brick buildings and fire escapes.

Absolutely stunning Saturday in the city!
Two men stand together smiling in front of the Washington Square Arch in New York City on a sunny day. Both wear jeans and casual jackets, each holding a bottle of water. Behind them, the white marble arch rises against a clear blue sky, with tall beige buildings and trees with autumn-colored leaves on either side. The park around them is filled with people walking, chatting, and taking photos.

New episode of The Prime Detective: “Costume vs. Courtroom”

A high-profile trial. A sci-fi superfan. And the real reason she was dismissed from the jury that nobody saw coming.

🎧 Listen: apple.co/3JELaib (or wherever you cast pods)
An AI-generated image depicting a stern-faced woman in a red-and-black Star Trek: The Next Generation uniform, walking confidently past a group of journalists with cameras and a boom mic operator. She wears dark aviator sunglasses and has two futuristic devices clipped to her waistband. The scene mimics a real-life courtroom media frenzy. Overlaid text reads “MEDIA FRENZY,” and in the bottom right is the logo for The Prime Detective Podcast, styled with a magnifying glass over a Starfleet-inspired emblem.

As a nerd, it's been a thrill to be inspired by (and occasionally featured on) @trek365.bsky.social!!! New episode of TPD tomorrow about a Starfleet uniform, a Presidential scandal, and a reminder that the 90's are ancient history (especially for Lily).

As a nerd, it’s a weekly thrill to hear me called out as inspiration for the Prime Detective. It’s also amazing to hear my daughter Lily in the actual credits!

A nighttime photo of five men sitting at a wooden picnic table displaying carved pumpkins lit from inside. The man in the front left is taking a selfie and smiling. Four other men sit behind the table, mostly in hoodies and jackets. The carved pumpkins on the table show various faces and designs, glowing in the dark. The background is very dark, suggesting an outdoor setting at night. Five carved pumpkins sit on wooden outdoor steps at dusk, each lit from inside. The top pumpkin has an angry face with sharp eyes and jagged teeth. On the middle step, one pumpkin has a bumpy surface with a sinister grin, and another has a round carving featuring a bat in front of a crescent moon shape. On the bottom step, one pumpkin shows a wide-eyed ghost with raised arms cut into a circular opening, and the other has a simple smiling face with triangle eyes and an upturned mouth. Gravel is visible beneath the steps.

🎃 Special #Halloween Prime Detective:

You’ve heard the story about the Michael Myers mask. But do you know who proved it came from Captain Kirk’s face, or how far Trek’s #SpookySeason ties really go?

Listen on @spotify.bsky.social or wherever you cast your pods: open.spotify.com/episode/5g3c...
A large orange pumpkin sits against a dark background. Carved or printed on its front is the yellow logo for The Prime Detective Podcast, with the word “DETECTIVE” intersected by a magnifying glass graphic. Emerging from the upper center of the pumpkin is the pale white face of a Michael Myers mask with black eye holes and short brown hair. Above the pumpkin, in bold yellow text, it reads “Skin of Evil” and below that, “The Starfleet Face of Michael Myers.”

This is such a great interview! I never really thought about it before but Brannon is right, a great way to think about TNG is as an "anthology series" - That's a perspective that really changes the way I experience the show.
