Which is better: Star Trek vs. Star Wars?
That's the question hosts Aspen Webster and Kenny madison ask each week. To solve it, we pit an episode of Star Trek versus an Episode of Star Wars. We also talk sociology, philosophy, gender dynamics, and get very, very political each week. Will we ever answer the question?

16 SEP 2024 · Aspen hates Whom Gods Destroy. Kenny loves Defenders of Peace (and so does Aspen).
Is the Galactic Republic a strictly American analog? We also discuss the nature of conflict. Also, Uhura, Sulu, and Chekov are constantly undercut. Why is that?

6 SEP 2024 · What does it mean to sacrifice one life over 1000? And what does it mean to be a horny Helen of Troy analog?

31 AUG 2024 · We're mad about The Acolyte getting cancelled.
Also, what does it mean to be an empath? Is Obi-Wan Kenobi compassionate? And where are Kenny and Aspen in our love of these fandoms?
All these answers and more!

16 AUG 2024 · Dr. Tiffany L. Knoell, author of From Monk to Superhero: Genndy Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars and the Transformation of the Jedi, comes to talk to US! COME ON!
We talk about the definining relationships between Jedi as mediative monks versus badass power fantasy. We talk about Parmen's fascist dictatorship within the context of 2024. We talk about Plato's Stepchildren's famous KISS. And animation is a medium, not a genre.

9 AUG 2024 · Aspen and Kenny go out of control on the implication of Senate Commandos. Kenny goes out of control on the two (TWO!) directors for The Tholian Web.
And Aspen goes out of control on the logos, pathos, and ethos of this week's Trek.
Also Uhura.
It's out of control.

27 JUL 2024 · Patrick Cotnoir (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH1XwfxXB--rl_Nqxvun8zQ)!!! comes to defend Jar-Jar.
Kenny goes on about how Star Trek fans are freaks. We collectively talk about how Star Wars fans are freaks. Patrick tells Aspen about Tag and Bink. And we (possibly) put Brotherwatch to an end.
Also how are we even supposed to remember this Star Trek ep title? Petition to rename the episode.
