Sailing the High Seas with Bryson

Positively Trek 220: Sailing the High Seas with Bryson Mi'kmaw, Star Trek Fan, and Real-Life Ship’s Navigator Very few among us get the opportunity to live a life navigating ships by the stars, taking the helm of a powerful vessel, and exploring the frontier on a mission of discovery. Whether it’s aboard a starship or, in the case of Bryson, a tall ship or modern seafaring vessel, pushing the boundaries of human knowledge while exploring the unknown is a thrilling adventure. In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry and Dan welcome Bryson to the show. We discuss his Star Trek fandom, how he feels like a real-life Starfleet officer while performing his duties, and the limits of Star Trek’s representation when it comes to Indigenous issues. This episode features a great discussion that you won’t want to miss! We also discuss the week’s Trek news, including an Emmy nomination for Star Trek: Prodigy and new Star Trek: The Next Generation action figures from Super7. ‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ Nominated For Best Animated Children’s Series Emmy Award - https://trekmovie.com/2022/11/01/star-trek-prodigy-nominated-for-best-animated-childrens-series-emmy-award/ Super7 Debuts STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION Ultimates Action Figures - https://blog.trekcore.com/2022/10/super7-debuts-star-trek-the-next-generation-ultimates-action-figures/ Bryson on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArnallLabrador Show page: http://www.positivelytrek.com/ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628 Twitter: http://twitter.com/positivelytrek Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek Help support the podcast!
