A couple of people wanted a central place to discuss these episodes, so here it is!

Future threads will go up on the day of the release.

If you’re not normally a podcast person, the series is available on YouTube.

    I’ll add my comment from the other post here too.

    Naveen Andrews is doing a great job with Khan sounding very charismatic.

    Not to throw shade at Andrews, but I do kind of wish maybe they got Earl Boen who can do a very good sound alike to Ricardo Montalban. Boen filled in for Montalban as Señor Senior Sr. in Kim Possible, and sounded really spot on.

    But if we ever see Khan on screen again, I think Andrews would be great casting.

    I also did the unthinkable, I’m listening to this podcast at 1x speed. Because I wanted to really be immersed in the story telling. I usually listen to podcasts at 1.5x or 2x, whichever allows me to consume the content quicker while understanding it.

    It’ll be intersting to see what hell comes from this that will inform Khan’s revenge for Kirk in Wrath of Khan.

      I did not know this, but apparently Earl Boen passed away in 2023, which would make casting…difficult.

      I’ve liked Naveen Andrews ever since he was an underutilized breakout star on “Lost”, and he has the advantage of actually being of Indian descent. I’ll be very curious to see how much range he gets to show as this series winds on.
