The SciFi Diner Podcast Ep 507 – James Frain Interview; Star Trek Academy
This week, we’re beaming back to last July and looking forward to the future of the Federation!
First, we are excited to finally share our sit-down interview with James Frain, recorded live at Shore Leave 45 in Lancaster, PA! James joined us to reflect on his time as the logic-bound Sarek in Star Trek: Discovery, his process for stepping into one of Trek’s most iconic legacy roles, and his memories of the convention floor.
Then, we head to the 32nd Century for our mid-season breakdown of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. We’ve seen eight episodes, and the stakes are higher than ever for the cadets. We discuss the fallout from the latest mission, the return of fan-favorite faces, and our theories on what that Episode 9 cliffhanger means for the upcoming season finale.
Finally, we catch up on the latest headlines from across the sci-fi landscape, from the newest trailers to the books we can’t stop reading this month.
