You’ve all been waiting very patiently, and so we won’t draw this out with too much preamble. That’s right — the first episode of Star Trek: The Pod Directive is here!
In their debut episode, hosts Tawny Newsome and Paul F. Tompkins sit down with actor, director, and producer Ben Stiller to talk all things Star Trek memorabilia. The trio go deep into Stiller’s Trek collection, his childhood memories of the show, and the way his fandom pops up in many of his projects— even to this day!
