After four years, the original Trek Chat crew reconvenes to talk about the newest addition to the Star Trek franchise: Starfleet Academy.

Comedian & actor Wyatt Cenac returns alongside screenwriter and prolific podcaster Josh Olson for the sprawling Star Trek episode at least one of you has been asking for for years.
