    Welcome back to Academic Trek!

    We have been on a bit of a 'life' induced hiatus but are back with a bang with today's interview with Dr Christopher Nunn of Grennwich University.

    We discuss Chris' teaching, the new iterations of Trek and a couple of classic episodes:

    TNG episode 'Yesterday's Enterprise' and DS9 two parter ' Way of the Warrior'

    We also talk about Voyager's 'Living Witness'

    Hope you enjoy it.
