Description

The Duras Sisters Podcast is all about honoring the fantastic characters and storylines in the Star Trek Universes. Two sisters, Ashlyn and Rhianna Herd, join the House of Duras and partake in weekly discussions about every series of Star Trek through a philosophical lens and Series Theme.

Each series will feature a theme and every new episode will travel from the Original Series to Prodigy, diving deeply into each detail of this epic franchise. We have covered these series: Pilot, Family, Love and Affection, Time Travel, Villains, Movies, Feminism, Death Fake Outs, First Officers, and the current Spooky series.

This podcast is the Star Trek fix you didn't know you needed, brought to you by the sisters who are as close as Lursa and B'etor themselves… except we survived Generations.
