On the Empire Podcast this week, we boldly go where no podcast has gone before and

talked to Jeff Nichols, director of Take Shelter, and this week's Excellent Mud.

We also set our phasers to review, and tackle a reluctant fundamentalist and deadfall, and

I'm sure all these Star Trek references mean something.

What could it be?

Oh yes, we talk Star Trek in the darkness with writers and producers Damon Lindelof,

Bob Orsey, Alex Kertzmann, and Brian Burke, as Klingons in the Starber Bow, Starber

Bow, Starber Bow Jim.

Hello pod, I'm Chris Hewitt and welcome to the Empire Podcast, the only movie podcast

that prefers Romulan L0, all the great taste of Romulan L0, C0 calories.

As ever, I'm joined by my very own Enterprise crew, I call them my number twos, and they

are, she's ice cold, deadly, and resistance is futile, she's our very own board queen.

Hello to Harrah, hello.

Hello, I'm trying to decide whether to be grateful that you didn't describe me as Deanna

Troy, given I have large hair, or Kirin Arise, given I wear large earrings.

I don't know the second one, who was that?

That was a deep space nine reference.

Okay, yeah, yeah, I stopped watching that deep space seven.

He's the ship's resident art house guru who can constantly be found on a holodeck, perfectly

recreating the curse and so ho for screenings of that old Klingon favorite stop.

I'm like, a duck will beck, it's filled the semilion, that was really funny.

Thank you.
