Episode 89 - Star Trek: Generations Film Review!

February 5, 2018

Join us as we dive deep into 1994's Star Trek: Generations! Two generations of captains meet, defying space and time, to thwart a mad man on a mission... All part of our ongoing series to review all the films in the Star Trek and Muppet film franchises. 

For Nerdy News we have the crazy case of a woman marrying a ghost pirate (for reals...), find out what X Box controllers and the US Navy have to do with each other, and crazy birds that are setting fires throughout Australia!

Then we have the return of the crazy improv game, Technobabble Improv, a short exploration through a few Would You Rather situations, and then some great Radical Recommends for you to try out.

For Trailer Reviews, we cover the new trailers for Tomb Raider and Pacific Rim: Uprising.
