With its 19th century nautical setting, </span>Master and Commander<span> contains much of the DNA of other influences that eventually found their way into </span>Star Trek<span>, including the majesty and adventure of a highly-trained crew on a ship pushing the boundaries of exploration on the edge of the frontier.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>In this episode of </span>Positively Trek<span>, hosts Barry and Dan talk about </span>Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World<span>, commenting on the many parallels it has with </span>Star Trek<span>, cementing it as the second best </span>Star Trek<span> film (after, of course, </span>Galaxy Quest<span>)!</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>Show page: </span><a href="http://www.positivelytrek.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.positivelytrek.com/</a></p><p><span>Apple Podcasts: </span><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628" rel="nofollow">https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628</a></p><p><span>BlueSky: </span><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social" rel="nofollow">https://bsky.app/profile/positivelytrek.bsky.social</a></p><p><span>Facebook: </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek</a></p><p><br></p><p><span>Help support the podcast!
