An Introduction to Starfleet Academy (Part 1 of 2)

An Introduction to Starfleet Academy (Part 1 of 2)

Just before the new show drops on Paramount+, the crew of WE ARE STARFLEET gets together to take a look at what we might expect from 'STARFLEET ACADEMY' due out January 15, 2026. We theorize what we might get out of the show, discuss castings and cameos, and how life at the academy has been historically portrayed in the franchise.

As noted, this is a two-part episode! In our next episode of the podcast, we talk TNG's THE FIRST DUTY and DS9's VALIANT, two episodes that portray cadets at the academy at their not-so-best.
