The existence of God or god like entities, the role of religion, and a preoccupation of a creator have often been a feature in The Original Series and movies of Star Trek . In our second episode, Terry Duffelen, Derek Mantle and Graham Sibley discuss God, the creator, and religion in Star Trek and ask if the show had a consistent message on these weighty topics.

Star Trek Music Mixtape #1 – Where No One Has Gone Before

About a year ago I put together a few mixes of Star Trek music on Mixcloud which I’m very happy to share on our new site.

I’ve been putting off doing more but will probably get round to it soon enough. Until them let’s begin with a compilation called “Where No One Has Gone Before” featuring tracks from James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith, Ron Jones, Fred Steiner and of course, Alexander Courage. Enjoy:

Our first ever podcast kicks off with a discussion on the two pilot episodes of Star Trek: The Cage and Where No Man Has Gone Before.

Host Terry Duffelen, joined by Derek Mantle and Graham Sibley, explore these two pivotal episodes, compare the differences between the two, examine the various characters and appreciate the aesthetic.

Graham also posits a theory about Kirk’s relationship with his friend Gary Mitchell. Did Mitchell’s demise somehow affect Kirk even more profoundly than grieving the death of a friend?
