The Meaning of Star Trek

We've seen the release of Star Trek: Beyond, the third entry in the reboot of Star Trek movie franchise and the 13th Star Trek movie overall. In a few months, we'll get to see Star Trek: Discovery, on CBS All Access. Deals have been made on Netflix to broadcast all 738 episodes of past Star Trek series, including The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, and Star Trek the Animated Series. Not bad for a fifty year-old show!

But why such success and longevity? We'll explore that question with our guest, Star Trek aficionado Richard Richter. You've heard him previously on our shows about Star Trek conventions, and our Star Trek vs. Star Wars debate.
