Hi Pod Directive fans, Tani Newsom and Paul F. Tompkins here.

And in case you miss the announcement at Star Trek Day, it is official Star Trek, the Pod Directive, was renewed for another season.

Woohoo! That's right! In February, 2023, we'll be back and bringing you even more unparalleled access to Star Trek luminaries, celebrity superfans, and behind-the-scenes details you can't get anywhere else.

We're also so excited to share that the Star Trek podcast universe is expanding with an all-new scripted podcast,

Star Trek Khan, SETI Alpha 5.

The Star Trek Khan City Alpha-5 will examine what happened in the years after Captain Kirk left Khan on the untamed world of SETI Alpha 5,

and tells the story of Khan and his followers prior to Star Trek 2, The Wrath of Khan.

Let me tell you something. I'm excited about this.

I am thrilled. I love the Rath of Khan. I cannot wait to see that universe expanded.

I have been begging for this to happen.

Me too. I've been screaming at them and saying, why won't you do this?

My throat hurts.

We'll see you back here with new episodes in 2023,

but until then, you can binge all your favorite episodes

of Star Trek the Pod Directive wherever you get your podcast.

Live long and prosper.

Khan.
