Why listen to us?
Additional Information
The idea of this podcast is to have an open and positive discussion about ALL iterations of Star Trek.
The franchise is almost 7 decades old and there seems to be a divide between old fans and new. We want to bridge that.
We call ourselves Your Father's Trek Cast because we want you to associate the idea that even new Trek can be your father's trek.
JP and Will are two men in their 40's who love the franchise and have divergent and strong opinions about the show and the future.
We'd love to hear from you. Check out how to engage with us.

JP is a long-time sci-fi junkie who identified as a Nerd before it was cool. A hard working man of the Earth, he excels in remembering trivial facts and information to make him a superstar at bar trivia night, but still unable to earn a spot at the podium on Jeopardy (his lifelong ambition being to have Weird Al dedicate "I Lost on Jeopardy" to him in front of thousands of screaming fans. )
