Christmas 2025 – Reality’s Fringe

[XMAS25] Merry Christmas Everyone! Here on Let’s Talk About Treks, we very much like bringin you a Christmas special each year. This year, I was thinking about Spock vs. Q, which is an audio play with Jon Delancie and Leanoard Nimoy that I highly recommend This year, I thought we’d bring you an update. We wrote a story where Trelane, most recently seen on Strange New Worlds, decides to have a nature-of-reality conversation with Spock, also most recently seen on Strange New Worlds. We converted this to script form, and, taking a cue from Star Trek: Khan, we did an edit: “Computer, delete the narrator” and fed our lines into some software that would mimic the voices of the actors. Many times. Many, many times to get the inflections as close to what we wanted and as cleanly as we could tweak, then pieced all of the audio snippets back together into the structure of the script, which was the image on the cover of the box for this little gift we made for you. A little music, some sound effects, an intro jaQ` made today, and violin! With our best wishes for you and yours on Christmas, Earl and I present to you:  an audio short by the makers of Let’s Talk About Treks this is Reality’s Fringe
