  • HoM: Star Trek Podcast - STAR TREK: PRODIGY Full Series Review
    Jun 15 2025

    Episode 79 - "His hygiene habits probably aren't the best... he's just so personable. I'll put up with anyone."

    Hello again officers, and welcome back to 'Hit or Miss: Star Trek' podcast. We've been taking a back seat to let our favourite Time Lord take the spotlight (sadly that hasn't exactly been a runaway success) but we've parked the TARDIS for now and we're back with Starfleet's finest, starting with another of our special full series review episodes. This was on the docket for a while but fate deemed it to be sadly all too timely as we are reviewing the recently officially cancelled Star Trek: Prodigy. Safe to say our intrepid crew aren't happy about that, but they are here to discuss the 40 episodes we got. (Holographic) Captain Mike is back in the host’s chair alongside loyal right-hand man D.K. They're joined by two great guests; returning legend Sci-Fi Queen Nita and first-time guest Connie. We start things off by getting to know new guest Connie, her intro to Trek and favourite Trek things. Then we get into everyone's first impressions of Prodigy, and how that might have changed now that the show has concluded. We examine how Prodigy serves as both a great intro to Star Trek as well as a great continuation of the lore and decide where it ranks in the Trek pantheon. We also dive into beloved characters, favourite storylines, best episodes and, of course, do a fair amount of drooling over starships. Proceedings conclude with your thoughts in our audience feedback section and our final thoughts on the dearly lamented show. So settle in, hug your loved ones as tightly as Rok'tahk and try not to engage in too much "percussive maintenence" as you engage the protostar drive and warp in with us.

  • SSP Cinema Classics 16 - Some Like It Hot
    Jun 7 2025

    Cinema Classics Number 16 - "I tell you, it's a whole different sex!"

    Nobody’s perfect… but this episode might come close! This week, Mike and D.K. don their best heels and grab their saxophones as they dive head-first into Billy Wilder’s genre-blending, gender-bending masterpiece Some Like It Hot. They’re joined by returning guest Robert Lunt and first-time classics commentators Michelle and Neil for a lively chat about the film’s riotous farce, surprisingly progressive attitude, and the unbeatable star power of Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, and Jack Lemmon, plus surprise MVP (at least for two of our guests) Joe E. Brown. From train compartments to beach resorts, gangsters to cocktails, we break down iconic lines, timeless scenes, Cary Grant mockery, and the film's improbable magic trick of being both silly and smart. Plus: who delivers the best zinger, what’s the scene we still quote, and why that final line still brings the house down. Pour a Manhattan, slip into something fabulous, and join us as we ask: is Some Like It Hot as cool as its reputation?
