Main Mission
This episode we dive into a topic suggested by loyal listener Diane. Diane writes…
“So I just now finished the episode. I did not realize that Chuck and Kreg are not your age and not original Trek fans. I think it would be a great episode if you all talked about how you came to Trek and has it always been in your life – and so on
It sounds like that at least one of them was not a big fan as a child and came to it later
I agree with you about the first reveal of the Enterprise = for true Trek fans that was worth the price of the ticket.”
