Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast

Rejoice!  Short Treks are here!  New Discovery!  But are Short Treks actually Discovery!?  Just one of the many thorny issues Jack and friends are diving into as they luxuriate in the first new Silvia Tilly footage in MONTHS.  Other topics on the table:  Classic TV Tropes that Short Treks have no interest in discontinuing,  the fate of 3D movies, Mad Max: Fury Road, when this Short Trek takes plac...

Jack is back with Barm again to talk about the third original novel based on the explosive new CBS All Access series, Star Trek: Discovery!  As with every other Star Trek: Discovery book, this one does not follow the crew of the Discovery.  Instead, it focuses on a tale as old of time: a Kelpien learning to overcome his fear.  In that vein, we'll be talking about fear chubs, the ol' Constitution C...

Are you ready to hear something that's pretty, pretttyyyy good? …..Okay.  Curb Your Enthusiasm superfan and all around swell gal Lauren Petronaci joins Jack to talk about her favorite episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm on his Star Trek podcast, for some reason.  How else are you going to fill these long, horrible stretches of Discovery-less time?  The Bowtie is the answer!  Join Jack and Lauren as th...

Just in time for Short Treks, it's another amazing episode of Drunk Star Wars, with Kregg Castillo!  (Don't worry, we'll be talking Short Treks soon).  Jack and Kregg are reversing the format, as this time JACK is the one who is drunk and seeing the film for the first time!  Boy, is he drunk!  Listen to him over explain the same things repeatedly and SHOUT about Darth Maul!  It's the hottest of ho...

 Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast is finally back!  That of course means Drunk Star Wars with Kregg, Part III, months after it was recorded.   Give this five hour + monstrosity a whirl, and you'll soon discover(y) why, as these two drunk idiots spent an inordinate amount of time and pain to get here.  Many Bothans died to bring you this information.   Anyways,...

Hello there!  We're coming in too HOT and still barely making it in for May (sorry Last Jedi), but we're definitely still flying HALF a podcast.  That's right, Kregg and Jack's powers have DOUBLED since the last time you saw them, they are DRUNK and they're back to talk about a movie that Kregg has definitely seen before, although strictly in prequel meme form.  We've found a way to save you from...

In classic Jack's Silly fashion, here's our promised Part I of Drunk Star Wars with Kregg, coming at you a whole two days after May the 4th!  Kregg watches Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones for the first time and gets nice and drunk but still remains his charming self, while Jack is drunker than he expected and begins veering into angry shouty fanboy territory!  See how much you can endur...

Jack and Barm are finally back to talk about the literary EVENT of 2018, Dayton Ward's Star Trek Discovery: Drastic Measures, and this is no Carlos prank this time.  It's the real deal, and they are having a blast talking about a book that they don't really care about very much, starring one immediately dead character from Discovery, and a mirror version of another who technically has never appear...

Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast is BACK!  Remember Star Trek: Discovery?  It's back.  In book form.  Jack roped old friend and most frequent guest Barm into reading the first Discovery novel, David Mack's Desperate Hours, and they're here to report to all you Discoverinos with their findings.  Despite the title, Discovery is nowhere to be found here, as David...

Well, it took a while but it's finally here!  The season finale of Star Trek: Discovery has come and gone, but not Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast!  In fact, to celebrate (?) this momentous occasion, Jack has made some phone calls and managed to gather together every single guest that has appeared on the podcast to date for a massive STD orgy!  That's right, o...

Geoff Clarke, Jack's cohost on The ApeCast, comes back for another spectacular episode of Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast, and they have a lot to talk about this week!  Has Discovery righted the ship after last week's questionable outing?  The answer is… kind of?  It's more complex than that, and Jack and Geoff have FEELINGS, both good and bad on a lot of the...

Now that we're out of the Mirror Universe, before we dive back into the Klingon war, take a break from all your worries with a little Star Wars!  Before Jack was ever on What Were We Watching's fantastic Last Jedi roundtable discussion (listen to it at whatwerewewatching.com!), he recorded this fun little Last Jedi discussion with old buddy and JSLFNSTDP standby Barm, waaaaay back in 2017.  And if...

Ferengi Expert/Mycelial Network Scholar Kregg Castillo is back again this week to dish with Jack about one of the biggest episodes of Discovery yet.  But is it any good?  That question, along with many others you never even knew you had, will be answered as Jack and Kregg also dive into Star Wars, the future of the podcast in a post-season one world, Caprica, Godzilla cartoons, how Stamets is like...

Jack is back, this time with pals Barm, Kregg and Sam to talk about Vaulting Ambition, both the episode of Discovery and the quality possessed by the show.  Whether the show lives up to its vaulting ambitions is a question they'll debate, along with the morality of eating meat (even if it is delicious threat ganglia), the impossible burger, what the hell happened to Voq, the reality of Culber and...

It's FINALLY here!  This week two new guests join Jack and his ApeCast co-host Geoff – Kevin Young of Reopening the Wormhole and Richard Dunham of the Ghibli Minute podcast!  It's a podcast co-host extravaganza, and you better believe Carlos is taking notes!  It's going down as they all dish on the big Ash Tyler/Voq revelations, nerd out about Andorians and Tellarites, once again try to make sense...

He's finally back, performing for you! That's right, the long wait is over, and Discovery, and by extension Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast, is back!  And they are both on FIRE!  Joining Jack for the first time in 2018 are old buddy Barm and Ferengi expert Kregg Castillo, to enlighten us all on such topics as the mechanics of the Mirror Universe, what kind of...

The "midseason finale" of Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast is finally here, and it WAS WORTH THE WAIT.  In this mega-sized and laugh-filled look at "Into the Forest I Go", Jack has assembled all of the previous guests (and one new one!) under one (Skype) roof and they can hardly contain themselves, or even ever just stop saying the word "T'Kuvma".   They're her...

Jack's cohost from The Apecast Geoff Clarke makes his third appearance on Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery Podcast, and boy is he charming!  They have a gormagander of a time talking about their mutual love of Saru, the Klingon problem, the Cornwell saga, whether there's a difference between complete harmony and oblivion, Skyrim, Mario Paint, Ash and Burnham KISSING, G...

Ferengi Expert and frequent Reopening the Wormhole guest Kregg Castillo makes his debut on this podcast to talk with Jack and old standby Barm about an episode of a TV show that will most likely never have a Ferengi in it.  But it DOES have HARCOURT FENTON MUDD, time crystals, a gormagander, a Lorca death reel, war steam and so much else, and you better believe we're talking about ALL OF IT.  Come...

Geoff Clarke, co-host of The ApeCast, joins Jack for the second week in a row to talk about Lethe!  Specifically, about what Lethe means, what Sarek and Sonic the Hedgehog have in common, how many moons Vulcan has, what Lorca has in his pants, Mark Lenard, and, as an afterthought, stuff like the delicate relationship between Sarek, Michael, and Spock and Lorca sexin' admirals.  Continuity Carlos a...

 Jack welcomes friend and Star Trek noob Geoff Clarke to the show, mostly so he can just sit there and show off, spewing Trek trivia at the poor guy.  But there's also more tardigrade talk, Mudd mayhem, Saru shenanigans, and SO MUCH CONTROVERSY TO COVER.  Cover your ears, cause the F-bombs are dropping, and men are brushing their teeth together!  What's next, a Planet of the Apes podcast!? Don't b...

Third time's a Barm as Jack is once again joined by his good friend to talk about tardigrades, threat ganglia, Michelle Yeoh's skull and all the other things everyone loves about Star Trek: Discovery!  Throw Guinan, some classic TNG episode talk, and some Arrested Development jokes and you got yourself a stew, baby!  We're just two adults getting a stew on, and the name of that stew is simple: The...

Special guest Barm is back to join Jack and a basket of deplorables on a magical shuttle ride to board the USS Discovery, and you're invited!  They can't help but gush in their schoolgirlish way about all the new things to digest on this crazy new ship.  Hear what they think about the ship, the bridge, and their takes on all the new faces we see, including Stamets, Landry, Tilly, and LORCA.  Boy,...
