Episode 13 "Tuning the Final Frontier" | A discussion on the music of Star Trek with Jeff Russo

"Beyond the rim of the star-light
My love is wand'ring in star-flight"

In the latest episode of "A Strange New Pod," the crew takes a symphonic journey into the music of Star Trek.

From the classic scores of Alexander Courage and Jerry Goldsmith of the original crew down the long road to the modern melodies of Chris Westlake and Jeff Russo of the Lower Decks/Discovery era, we talk about themes and connections these musical titans took when scoring Trek.

The crew also welcome on-board Discovery and Picard composer Jeff Russo as he talks about scoring Trek's two newest shows, conducting an orchestra during a pandemic, and so much more.

Plus, Mike Garcia from Star Trek Discovery Pod stops by to talk about theme music.

"A Strange New Pod" is a weekly Star Trek Podcast from the creators of "Everything is Permitted" and "Geeks with Kids" focusing on "Lower Decks" and the upcoming "Strange New Worlds" series.
