Starfleet Academy: A Masterclass in Bad Writing?

Is modern Sci-Fi "rage-baiting" its own fans? This week, Mark Kidder goes on a legendary tear against Starfleet Academy, breaking down everything from planet-sized plot holes to the "moronic" behavior of the newest cadets. From inconsistent transporters to the dramatic, unnecessary warp-sequence strobe lights, we’re asking the tough question: Has Trek lost its way by pandering to short attention spans? The crew also dives into the Scrubs revival (and whether it can redeem the "Season 9" disaster), the physical accuracy of Alan Ritchson vs. Tom Cruise in Reacher, and why modern Netflix movies feel the need to repeat their plots five times just in case you're looking at your phone. Plus, LCL Geek gives an update on his "Local Lego Builder" channel and we settle the ultimate nerd debate: To sticker or not to sticker?
