Star Trek hit different when I needed it most. Made a vid on how it went from “cool sci-fi” to a life defining.
It’s (I think) funny, honest, and a little emotional.

I’ve started a new series on YouTube called Hear Me Out where I defend the indefensible. I take on the most controversial opinions in pop culture and attempt to defend them.
First up, Jar Jar Binks is a well written character.

This is one of the comments on my video about Star Trek always being woke. Blows my mind that this person thinks there are two sides of an argument for things like racism, and that Star Trek has done anything less than paint any sort of prejudice as wrong.

In my opinion the best Star Wars content concentrates on the struggles of ordinary people and the Jedi are a more mythical presence.
