A Star to Steer Her By

A Star Trek Podcast

Author: A Star to Steer Her By

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. Mature Content!

Episode 433: New Backgrounds All Around
Thursday, 2 April, 2026

In "Erigah", we've caught up to our plucky bandits, and one of them is in a bad way. Worse still: uncle has come calling! Meanwhile, the B team is trying to get to the bottom of the latest clue. And in both cases, we have a "Discovery" superpower: sudden backstory out of nowhere! Turns out Rayner has a long history with the Breen, while Jett gets a Poe Dameron style upgrade! Would've been nice if any of this had been mentioned earlier... Also this week: conclusion jumping, antagonist v. villain, and remaining side-love!
