<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">It’s a classic TrekRanks deep dive on the <strong>“Top 5 World-Building Episodes”</strong> in the history of Star Trek, where we breakdown the stories, details and moments that helped establish the expansive universe that we’ve all known and loved across the past 60 years. Our panel of host Jim Moorhouse and expert guests Alex Perry and Carlos Miranda get into the nooks and crannies of both the big and small world-building moments that have helped establish Star Trek as the modern mythology of our times.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Episode Rundown:</span></strong></p> <ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Diagnostic Cycle</span></strong><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">: Where we briefly get into the details of defining the show’s specific topic.</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Prime Directive:</span></strong> <span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Each guest on this week’s panel reveals exactly how they narrowed down their list and made their final choices.</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">The Order of Things:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">All the picks are teased and revealed with the TrekRanks’ original “Five words and a hashtag” summary.</span></li> <ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="circle"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level2 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Secondary Systems:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">For a few extra picks that just missed our final list.</span></li> </ul> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Regeneration Cycle:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion.</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Temporal Inversion:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">We flashback to a previous episode of TrekRanks and relay some of the feedback received from listeners.</span></li> </ul> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;"> </span><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">If you have your own picks you would like to relay to us, please hail us at 757-828-RANK (7265) and record your own personal TrekRanks log to let us know your <strong>Top 5 World-Building Episodes.</strong> (Or you can record it yourself and just DM us @TrekRanks.com on Bluesky.)

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">It’s maybe the most expansive topic in TrekRanks history. In a return to our ongoing “Scenes in Trek” series we tackle the <strong>“Top 5 Scenes on a Bridge.”</strong> And in Star Trek, as you know, a whole lot of the show takes place on the bridge! Our expert panel of host Jim Moorhouse and guests Charlynn Schmiedt, Kimberly Lawler and Foz Rotten have a great time covering this massive topic with heavy hitters, deep cuts and some emotional wallops. It’s another TrekRanks classic!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Episode Rundown:</span></strong></p> <ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Diagnostic Cycle</span></strong><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">: Where we briefly get into the details of defining the show’s specific topic and run down our “Scenes in Trek” role call of past topics!</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Prime Directive:</span></strong> <span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Each guest on this week’s panel reveals exactly how they narrowed down list and made their final choices.</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">The Order of Things:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">All the picks are revealed with the TrekRanks’ original “Five words and a hashtag” summary.</span></li> <ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="circle"> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level2 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Secondary Systems:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">For a few extra picks that just missed our final list.</span></li> </ul> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt;">Regeneration Cycle:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion.</span></li> <li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1;"> <strong><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Temporal Inversion:</span></strong> <span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">We relay a special voicemail commemorating our 200<sup>th</sup> episode.</span></li> </ul> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">If you have your own picks you would like to relay to us, please hail us at 757-828-RANK (7265) and record your own personal TrekRanks log to let us know your <strong>Top 5 Scenes on a Bridge.</strong> (Or you can record it yourself and just DM us @TrekRanks.com on Bluesky.)

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">We all have those episodes we’ve seen a bunch of times, but every time you turn it on, for some reason it feels like you are watching it for the first time. And that is what this week’s TrekRanks is all about. It’s the <strong>Top 5 Episodes that Always Feel Like a First-Time Watch</strong>! Our expert panel of host Jim Moorhouse and guests Paul Edinger, Todd Kehoe and Kelli recorded this one “FlashRanks” style, with about 24 hours to prep their choices.
