Set Phasers: A Highly illogical Star Trek Podcast

Set Phasers is an uber-mega-nerd Star Trek podcast from two musical trekkies (Akie Bermiss and Stevie Manns) with a lot of time on their hands.

Each week they tackle the latest episode of Star Trek (from Picard, Lower Decks, Star Trek Discovery to Strange New Worlds) and talk about how much they love the show, breaking down the plots, discussing the larger themes at play, the volatility of Vulcans and the curious culture of Klingons... and much more.

Join us, won‘t you? The ”final frontier” of Star Trek awaits us!
