Episode 78 - Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home - Film Review!

July 5, 2017

This week on the podcast we continue our ongoing series where we review all the films in the Muppets and Star Trek franchises, with Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home! To help us do that we have super-Star Trek fans and co-hosts of the Ten Forward Podcast, Matt Hansen, Paul Wright and Chris Mitchell! They'll help us delve into this fan favorite Star Trek film in detail. 

For the rest of the show we have some Nerdy News, with the discovery of the possible "missing link" of whales, and some crazy shake-ups with the production of the next Star Wars spin-off film with Han Solo.

Trailer Reviews are very short, for reasons you'll hear on the show, with Blade Runner: 2049 and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.
