What happened in the 6th century BCE? Can a non-human (robot? dog?) have a soul? Does God’s time move from the past to the future? Is the present, in a sense, always avant-garde? How are bureaucratic orders made to perpetuate in time? How does a common person today understand the yugas? Who has the ‘need’ to think about the future? How are different time periods squeezed into a single register in art? Why do we invoke ramrajya? Do ideal types constrain how far (& ‘how’) one can think of the future? What did women joining the Buddhist sanghas (not) cause? Could science fiction become a historical artefact? Is a ‘genius’ science fiction writer akin to a ‘genius’ scientist? Is religion all about survival? Are religion, art and politics interwoven in the pharaoh? Are the pyramids, megaliths, Stonehenge, & the Chinese burial pits for the immediate afterlife of the dead or the future of those later alive? Are genealogies often invented? Is there a part of us that ‘needs’ to believe? Do we wish that the future were pre-ordained? Do we inhabit multiple temporalities? &, when is the messiah coming (back)? SynTalk thinks about these & more questions using ideas from art history (Dr. Shailka Mishra, Jagdish and Kamla Mittal Museum of Indian Art, Hyderabad), theology (Prof. Ori Z. Soltes, Georgetown University, Washington DC), & ancient history (Dr. Meera Visvanathan, Shiv Nadar University, Greater Noida). Listen in...

#TSOFF (The Susurrus Of Former Futures) --- SynTalk

Allison Rentz is an LPC and the author of the new book Among the Wildflowers.  Allison's book is a guided journal walking the reader through different ways to explore mental health and begin a look into their own lives.  In this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, Allison and I talk about what it means to be a Wildflower, when it's a good thing, and when it's not.  We also spend a little time playing with my pet theory on how Star Trek: Picard discusses generational trauma.

Hungry Trilobyte Podcast

HTP #190 - Allison Rentz

"Enterprise" has left infurating war crimes behind and has gone back to the familiar comfort of dull and copying older "Trek". In parts two and three of a story that did NOT need to be a three-parter, the Augments go on a rampage and Soong realizes maybe he did, in fact, do a bad thing by unleashing them on the galaxy. Join us, won't you, for "Cold Station 12" and "The Augments".
Also this week: too many nods, a pointless brother, and B'Elanna!
[Timestamps: Cold Augment Dozen: 00:36; Torres: 54:21]
[note: minor spoilers for "Picard" S.2, but honestly that's probably the worst of the seasons of that show so who cares?]

Episode 357: Is a Bad Plan Better Than No Plan?

Episode 8: Art Trek

Will we have inescapable popup ads in the future? Does Section 31 Moriarty have rights? Do you also dream of Data painting in a field? Was Data painting a daughter who looked like Lul? Did Bruce Maddox base Doj & Soji after his painting? Join Ashlyn and Rhianna as we discuss the art in Picard!

SPOILER ALERT: Star Trek Picard

This is the eighth episode of our Art Trek series, where Ashlyn and Rhianna talk about the art aspects of every Star Trek show, starting with the Original Series and ending with Strange New Worlds. 

Next time, we’ll be headed to the Cerritos to check out the art that appears in Lower Decks!

PIC: Moriarty Sings “What Was I Made For?”

Somehow we've made it: after a little over 8 years and hundreds of episodes we've covered all the "Trek" that aired on broadcast TV from 1966-2005. Before we jump to the next phases of the franchise, we thought we'd take a little time to have a more general discussion about everything that got us here. It's a broad overview where we re-cover the camp and cardboard sets of the 60s, the renaissance of the film and TNG eras, and the great 90s spinoffs! Also "Enterprise" is there.
Also this week: our favorite cameo host, the most Kirk, and Caitlin on the ENT finale!

Ten Forward 41: Trektrospective

Ryan Thomas Riddle is an accomplished writer and podcaster.  He's a valued member of the Star Trek community, and today he comes to Hungry Trilobyte to discuss Star Trek: Oath-- a fan script that made a bang with Stunt List 2024 and became the most downloaded entry.  The script also has the merit of being done on a challenge from Dr. Beverly Crusher herself, Gates McFadden.

HTP #194 - Ryan Thomas Riddle

Well. We weren't sure what exactly to expect going into William Shatner's other foray into "Trek" documentary making, "The Captains", but we definitely weren't expecting THIS. Join us as The Shat turns everything into a self-serving therapy session, especially with Patrick Stewart! Gape in horror at the mind-numbing misogyny he spews in front of Kate Mulgrew! Be pleasantly surprised by how darn personable Bakula is! Blink and you'll miss Chris Pine! And wonder, forever, if Avery Brooks is messing with Shatner or if he's genuinely that odd!
Also this week: Shut up, Bill. Please. Really. Just...just shut up, for the love of God, let your subjects speak! Lord.

Back when the New Era of "Trek" was...new...they did "Short Treks". We looked at the first batch back between Seasons 1 and 2 of Discovery and have lamented since more than once that it's something they should have done more of. But considering we were largely cooler on the second batch, maybe there was a reason...
Also this week: weird messages, back to cartoons, and ranking the lot!

In his book Late Star Trek, Adam Kotsko analyzes the wealth of content set within Star Trek’s sprawling continuity, beginning with the prequel series Enterprise, highlighting creative triumphs and the tendency for franchise faithfulness to get in the way of new ideas. Arguing against the consensus that franchises are a sign of cultural decay, Kotsko zeroes in on their status as modern myths, owned as corporate intellectual property, as a source of creative limitation. Here, Kotsko is joined in conversation with David Seitz.


Adam Kotsko teaches in the Shimer Great Books School at North Central College and runs an active, free-to-read Substack. He is author of many books including Late Star Trek, Agamben’s Philosophical Trajectory, Neoliberalism’s Demons, and What Is Theology? 

David Seitz is associate professor of cultural geography at Harvey Mudd College. He is author of A Different Trek and A House of Prayer for All People.

Praise for the book:
​​”Combining the rigorous critical eye of a literary and political theorist with the encyclopedic knowledge of a devoted fan, Adam Kotsko offers an original, persuasive, ethical, funny, grim, and nevertheless hopeful examination of Star Trek’s twenty-first-century incarnations. Late Star Trek is a salutary intervention, a sustained, cogent analysis of what’s gone wrong, what’s gone right, and what possibilities remain for creative and critical storytelling in our late-neoliberal streaming era.”
—David Seitz

“Adam Kotsko has written an eminently readable and deeply researched book on twenty-first-century Star Trek, providing an analysis that is both timely and long overdue. A must-read for anyone teaching, doing research on, or just thinking about this ever-growing franchise.”
—Sabrina Mittermeier, coeditor of The Routledge Handbook of Star Trek and Fighting for the Future: Essays on “Star Trek: Discovery”



Late Star Trek: The Final Frontier in the Franchise Era by Adam Kotsko is the inaugural volume in the University of Minnesota Press’s Mass Markets series.

Star Trek and the franchise era.

New episodes every Thursday!

Podcasts: a frontier that isn't actually very final at all. These are the voyages of the podcast A Star to Steer Her By. Our continuing mission: to watch every single episode of Star Trek (even the dumb ones), to comment on and snark at whatever suits our fancy, to boldly split infinitives that no man has split before. 

Follow our crew of Chris, Jake, Ames, and Caitlin as we explore the universe of Trek, go on wild tangents, crack wise, and make more fart jokes than necessary.

Is the Meaning of Life really 42?  Does anything unreal exist?  Hosted by Aaron Bossig, The Hungry Trilobyte Podcast focuses on the power and creativity of the scifi, fantasy, and gaming communities.  This podcast enjoys finding the best that fandom has to offer, and tries to better understand what being a geek means.

A temporary phenomena on the Sun's photosphere.

The Duras Sisters Podcast is all about honoring the fantastic characters and storylines in the Star Trek Universes. Two sisters, Ashlyn and Rhianna Herd, join the House of Duras and partake in weekly discussions about every series of Star Trek through a philosophical lens and Series Theme. 

Each series will feature a theme and every new episode will travel from the Original Series to Prodigy, diving deeply into each detail of this epic franchise. We have covered these series: Pilot, Family, Love and Affection, Time Travel, Villains, Movies, Feminism, Death Fake Outs, First Officers, and the current Spooky series. 

This podcast is the Star Trek fix you didn't know you needed, brought to you by the sisters who are as close as Lursa and B'etor themselves… except we survived Generations.
