The crew of the podcast is BACK! Kicking off 2025 with a brand new Star Trek movie, "SECTION 31!" It has been sufficiently panned by audiences and critics, but is there anything redeemable? Mike, Craig, Ashley and Ian get together to discuss their collective disappoint in the premise and execution of Star Trek: Section 31, while remaining surprised at the unexplored potentials we're left with.

WE ARE STARFLEET comes together to look back at Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. As an older film it may be a product of it's time, but does it hold up? It's a Trek movie, so the answer is yes, even if it's an odd numbered movie! We discuss plot holes, recurring actors, a lack of characters, and so much more.

In this episode of WE ARE STARFLEET, hosts Mike & Ian strap in to not-explore a binary super-massive black home system in STAR TREK DISCOVERY "LaGrange Point." Does it matter who the Breen are under all the helmets? A great action episode that sets up the finale. Should it have been a part one?
