    Great Star Trek Discovery Community
    I adore the hosts Brian and Ruthie and their passion for this amazing series and franchise. Each weeks episode leaves no stone unturned and welcomes all fan feedback. I have learned so much Star Trek canon from the show and I love the chemistry between Brian & Ruthie and their often differing perspectives on the show. I never miss an episode.

    For Star Trek Fans
    Star Trek Discovery Podcast is a true gift for Star Trek fans every where. I enjoyed this podcast so much, I decided to go back and binge listened from 2017. I really enjoy hearing other Star Trek Discovery fans opinions/insights on the latest greatest episode on the podcast. If you love all Star Trek from TOS, Lower Decks, DS9, TNG, and Discovery then this podcast is for you. Hosted by Brian and Ruthie. Will from SoCal.

    Listen now! Resistance is futile!
    Ruthie and Brian are great to listen to for hours on end! I love that the podcast is always feature film length which allows me to listen to 4 or 5 episodes during a long work day. I’ve binged not only this one but all of the Trek related casts from TTM and GSM. Brian and Ruthie are great! I Love Ruthie’s light and infectious laugh! The show is of high quality- well edited and well thought out- leaving me excited for each ‘chapter’ and Brian’s kick butt skills on the soundboard! #ibetthisrunonsentenceisdrivingruthiecrazy

    An enjoyable Podcast
    Brian and Ruthie are a delight to listen to about the lates Discovery episodes. LT and Kyle are great on Lower Decks and guest hosting. Including most, if not all fans feedback make this podcast more personable instead only the hosts insights. LL P.

    Just Star Trek Fans
    I enjoy this podcast. Brian and Ruthie are clearly Star Trek fans and not haters. I just want to listen to people talking about Star Trek without needlessly bashing it! Also as a bonus, they are now discussing Picard while Discovery is in its off-season. I saw a review saying they shouldn't laugh at their own jokes so much...uhh...why not? Go make your own sad podcast with no laughing.

    Overproduced nightmare
    Unprepared. Obsessed with unnecessary sounds. If it takes three episodes to discuss one episode of a show you’re doing something wrong.

    ...Can’t take constructive criticism and they go off topic too much!
    I am being honest in my review! There are times that I enjoy the podcast, but most times I don’t! Hence the reason for my rating. The hosts are ok but they go way off topic and that’s ok, but way too much in my opinion! There was one instance also where someone else gave them an average review, and the hosts did not take it well! Instead of taking the constructive Reviews they went off on a rant about it! They said that why would people leave a bad review? And who does that? Really? Isn’t that the point of reviews? to get either good, average or bad reviews! I understand that you’re not gonna please everyone. But when someone puts out a product they should expect to get all sorts of feedback from their listeners! People have opinions about them, just like they have their opinions about Star Trek Discovery!

    Brian and Ruthie bring humor and insight to a show that is continually improving.

    Needlessly long and off-topic
    Nice and all that the hosts are having fun together but it makes the podcast artificially and needlessly long when they’re leaving in all the extensive laughing at their own jokes and trolling around with the soundboard.

    This podcast completes my Star Trek Discovery experience.
    I discovered The Star Trek Discovery Podcast after the first episode of season 2 when I discovered that CBS All Access had cancelled After Trek. Honestly, that companion show was one of my favorite things about Discovery since I felt like I was getting the DVD extras along with the show each week. Seeking an alternative, I found this podcast which more than made up for the loss of After Trek. Hosts Brian and Ruthie provide balanced commentary on each episode and take great care to share feedback from their listeners. This makes it feel like a community of friends watching the series together and having thoughtful discussions about it. I like this podcast so much that I binge-listened to the entire first season to catch up and get to know that community better. Brian and Ruthie are always fair and respectful of all opinions, both exemplifying the ideals of the Federation. I appreciate that they aren't afraid to critizize the show for its weak points while also keeping a positive tone that lets their love for Star Trek shine through. If you love picking apart Star Trek, analyzing the pro's and con's along the way, this podcast is for you. Engage!

    The Best
    Like others I’ve listened to other Star Trek podcasts and you are definitely superior. You have really good insight and intelligent conversation not just goofy banter. I really enjoy listening! Donna

    A highlight of my week
    I look forward to this podcast every week. It’s well done, and incorporates fan feedback better than most. I hope they keep it going while the show is between seasons.

    Best Star Trek Discovery Podcast!!!
    I’m one of the fans that binged the first 9 episodes over Christmas break. I thoroughly enjoy the series and took the time to listen to this podcast after several of the episodes. I plan on listening to it after each episode during the back half of this season because these guys are very professional, knowledgeable and entertaining! Give them a listen!

    Great Podcast
    Whether you love or just kind of like Star Trek: Discovery, this is the podcast for you. Brian and Adam present all sides of criticism not just fan worship. If something doesn’t work or they don’t like something, they bring it up in the “Noooooo” section. They also encourage listeners to provide both “Yeeesss” and “Noooo” feedback as well. The best thing for me is that they let listeners know a deadline to feedback for a particular episode. They will still read it even it isn’t on the particular ep they are covering, as well.

    The best Discovery podcast
    I listen to 5 different Discovery podcasts and I have to say this one is the most thourough and professional. Its also the one i look forward to listening the most. Only downfall is the delay from the airing of the podcast to the posting of the podcast. But it doesnt bother me too much because it still releases before the next episode airs.
