    Another great Show from LSG MEDIA
    Just as with their other podcasts this delivers great content every episode. If you enjoy Star Trek look no further than Kirking Off.

    Just hit the play button.
    The gents continue to bring depth, hilariousness and great points to support an argument in a discussion with Kirking Off. haha If it’s from LSG, trust it will be good! Thanks for all the laughs and for continuing to be one of voices in my head ☺️

    Trek and Beyond
    Outstanding content for the initiated and uninitiated of all things Trek and then some. The crew of this interstellar journey approach Trek with more than the atypical reviews of movies, series, or other content. Going beyond, they question the broader concepts that this vast story tends to stir up in the fans. By bringing extensive knowledge to the table you will have the opportunity to dig deeper into your favorite Trek moments in ways you haven’t thought of before. One of the many pillars of LSG Media this show is certainly worth indulging in. Laugh, ponder, live long, and prosper as you journey to where no man has gone before.

    Kirking Off is the Show for You
    Never fear, Kirking Off is here! Don’t let the goofy impersonations and wickedly hilarious jokes throw you off. Each week Dean, Nate and new addition Brian hop on their own version of the Enterprise and travel to the far reaches of the Star Trek Universe to talk about all that it has to offer. From TOS to Next Gen to Voyager this trio does it all! Not familiar with Trek or just getting hopping on the starship? No worries, these guys have your back!

    A sci-fi must!
    Best trek podcast around, doesn’t matter if your new to the trek or an old fan, Dean is probably my favorite podcaster out there, can’t get enough 🖖🏼
  • Digital Green Thumb
    LSG delivers, and it’s a blast
    Do you like Trek? Do you like talking about it with friends? Do you like to laugh? If yes to these, look no further. Dean and Nathan love Trek, but they’re not afraid to break it down. It’s fun, you’ll laugh along with them, and you’ll find yourself pulling up episodes and movies to watch all over again (or for the first time) after they cover them.

    I Love Kirking Off
    LSG Media has done it again but in a way they’ve never done it before. No need to have seen every Trek series or movie to enjoy this podcast, just come along for the ride. Nathan & Dean bring great love and infectious humor to their exploration of the Star Trek franchise.
  • Whoopty freakin doo
    I Heart Star Trek
    This podcast by LSG is almost as good as the Troi/Crusher stretching scene!
  • dumbbug
    Great
    Best Star Trek review show on the net!

    The Prime Directive: LISTEN!
    The auditory equivalent of Jim Rice breaking a bat on a check swing.
  • mikeyl
    He tasks me!
    I’m not super big into podcasts at this time. However, I look forward to kirking off each week. Dean and Nate are absolutely hilarious. That’s not all! There is impactful and insightful discussions about the episodes that made me go right back through all the series. I often find myself looking at things in a different light. (Although sometimes I will be chuckling at a joke) it’s great to experience it again after listening to these guys!! Great job at opening the door of podcasts for me. I look forward to experiencing the next episodes. Beam me up dean and Nate. I’m here for the long haul!
  • Simtago
    Fantastic
    Absolutely love this podcast .
  • "highwire"
    A 5 Star Trek show
    Sometimes philosophicial, often crass, and always hilarious, this show is a delight for Star Trek veterans and newcomers alike. Even if I had a holodeck, I'd rather Kirk Off listening to Dean and Nate any day.
  • mcashcorson
    Instant fanboy!
    Being a casual Star Trek fan in my youth and being tired of the giant corporate podcasts I’d been listening to lead me to Kirking off. My sick sense of humor had me chuckling at the title. Once I Kirk off I had to Kirk off again and now I find myself hopelessly addicted waiting to Kirk off each week. Dean and Nathan have an excellent rapport with each other. This mixed with there humor give the listener a fun yet thought provoking jaunt through the Star Trek Universe.
  • SAB SOLDIER
    There are “FIVE” stars!!!
    A must for any open minded star trek fan! Awesome job done by Dean and Nate love the show keep it up!
  • Rdubbers11
    So much Kirking off I went cross-eyed
    I've always said LSG Media podcasts are the conversations you want to have when you don't have anyone to converse with. They always cover the topics I'm either thinking about or screaming to myself while watching the show or movie. Well, Kirking Off by LSG Media is that conversation you DIDN'T know you wanted to have, but, after listening to Dean and Nathan, its blantantly clear you needed to. Their unique perspective and insight is deep and thought-provoking, hidden within their sick, twisted, totally perfect humor. I love the structure, unhindered by your typical linear timeline with both show and episode. They are allowed to journey where ever the Subspace currents take them. From TNG to DS9 to Voyager and beyond. Nothing is safe or sacred and I would't want it another other way now. If you want a completely new take on our beloved Star Trek, one that separates itself from every-other-Star-Trek-podcast out there, you've found it.
  • The Hip-hoppopotamus
    Another great show from LSG media!
    So far everything I've heard from LSG media is great, and this show is no exception! Dean and Nate are insighful and quick-witted and are simply fun to listen to. I love how they brought in references to Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and Monty Python on the last episode... they're speaking my language! I was never really a Star Trek guy, but I have started watching the episodes that are covered in the podcast just to laugh along with Dean and Nate as they review it. I hope they keep putting out great shows like this for a long time to come.
  • John Hewitt
    Lsg strikes again
    Dean and the crew have been putting out solid content for years. The fresh addition of Nate and the deep-ish dives into Star Trek are worth the time to listen. It’s hilarious and well thought out conversations about trek from a bunch of different series. It’s a rock solid show, take a listen, you won’t regret it
  • JRock-02
    Look no further
    Absolutely love the show and Nate and Dean. Whether you’re a die hard Trekkie, casual amateur or completely new to the shows you will get what you’re looking for from this Pod. The host are knowledgeable, insightful, hilarious and serious when needed. They hit up each different series and break them down in a way that makes the episodes more enjoyable. Subscribe and you will not be disappointed!!
  • Trilaanus
    I Wouldn't Have Tried DS9 Without You
    Super fun podcast, unconstrained by the standard time-line-focused review structure found everywhere else. Dean and Nathan have very good, fun chemistry.
  • tresspassersWilliam
    Great Podcast
    Love it! For one getting back into Star Trek ,this is a love letter to fans that like those odd questions that certain characters make you wanna ask. -Donnie B

    One Bajoran's Freedom Fighter Is Another Cardassian's Terrorist
    Big fan of the show! I downloaded itunes just so I could rate and review the show at 5 stars. Everything LSG Media does is great. They're honest, informed, and most importantly of all, entertaining! Give these guys a listen and you'll quickly find yourself going down the rabbit hole of all the other shows LSG Media offer as well. Subscribe!
  • Goku&freinds1988
    Fully functional & skilled in multiple techniques
    Dean’s unapologetic love for Star Trek could not be contained so he started another Podcast. By god I am F@%#ing thankful that he did. Dean and Nathan’s knowledgeable insight combined with their warped sense of humor and affection for the series is undoubtedly entertaining and has renewed my already intense fandom for Trek. This podcast is a celebration not only for the revolutionary TV series with its social political commentary, memorable characters and ground breaking concepts but all that Goofy Trek SH$&% we all have to come to love. This podcast is informative, thought provoking and most of all hilarious. LSG media has knocked it out of the park again. Well done boys
  • Hue Jase
    Fantastic podcast!
    Podcasting about something as vast as Star Trek is a daunting task. However, Dean and Nathan have risen to the occasion and created something approachable for people new to Trek and engaging for long time fans. The premise is that they jump around between the various series and cover wide array of episodes. You won’t get bogged down with a years worth of episodes were Voyager is fighting the Kazon yet again. This is a light hearted romp sampling the best, sometimes goofiest, Star Trek has to offer. Let the Kirking Off begin!
  • Raegen Cauthen
    Love it
    JON CAUTHEN: I love the hosts. I love the content. Smart, witty, enlightening podcast and you don’t even have to be a Trek fan to enjoy it. Thanks for another great podcast Dean. Keepem coming dude!
  • kes me if you can
    Best trek cast!
    This pod is perfect for the casual trek fan. Nate and dean bring the episodes to life with excellent insight mixed with humor. Highly recommended!
  • fifaman89
    Love this podcast!!!
    I was never a Star Trek fan, but listening to these guys makes me enjoy the stories and tales of the shows/movies! I can officially say that Star Trek is pretty freaking sweet now! Always look forward to listening to the new episodes. You guys rock!

    I kirked off so hard I got into tribble
    Can’t get enough of the irreverent analysis of Trek episodes from over the years. I especially appreciate the attention good old Lt Barclay has received. Way to pick some of the best episodes so far! I really can’t wait until you guys address Janeway and Chakotay. I see a lot of gender swap parallels with President Roslin and Billy Adama... Look forward to many more episodes!! There is so much more Trek to talk and Kirking off to do! Speaking of the Adama boys, if you like this check out Recommisioned: A Battlestar Galactica Podcast. Another fine gem of a podcast from the LSG crew!!

    Involuntary Laughter is Unavoidable
    LSG Media podcasts are great, I’ve been a listener of their main feed The Lost Drive-In/SFFP for years so I gave this new offering a whirl. It’s glorious. So glad the old Tamulis Talks spawned a syndicated show with this level of amusement. I’ll be listening to Dean and Nathan talk and suddenly one of them will mention fascist Odo spacing Bajorans and I’ll snort/chuckle alone in my car. I usually give the radio a side-eye glance like “You...you got me there. Well played.” Thankfully I do not often have passengers to witness this. I’m mostly a Next Gen and the films guy but they made me want to watch Deep Space 9 and maybe give Enterprise and Voyager a look too. Highly recommend, great sound, great content, and you’ll be shouting “William Shatner” along with the Scofflaws in no time!
  • opscully
    Go ahead and Kirk Off
    How's this for an endorsement? This diehard Android user dowloaded iTunes just to leave these guys a five-star reivew. Seriously, this one is worth it. I love the educated, insightful, and hilarious take on the Star Trek universe. I can't wait to continue the adventure. Nice job, Dean & Nathan! (PS - Do yourself a favor and check out the rest of LSG Media library too.)
  • Peter San.
    Weekend at Barclay’s
    Ever wonder what it took to clean up the holodeck after Worf got done in there? Is beaming a man possessed by an evil entity into space the best solution? They may not give you the “real” answers, but Dean and Nate are going to make you laugh about it, and all things Star Trek. The secret sauce for this podcast is Dean and Nate’s friendship. They have such good chemistry together, know how to run with a bit, and their love of Trek is super evident. I highly recommend you come aboard the ship, and get Starfleet to prescribe a sex plant for what ails ya.
  • Jay Homer S
    Just what we all need right now!!
    This podcast will WARP me & you in 2 ways. 1st-in the mind & 2nd- To Boldly go where I have never gone before….into the expanded Trek universe. Dean & Nate are like 2 buddies sitting on the couch talking while watching a show they love & respect. The fun they have talking about the episodes washes over you like a Sulu Tsunami!!
  • Molluck80
    Can’t stop Kirking Off
    This podcast is entertaining and insightful. There’s a thorough discourse about the shows, the atmosphere in which they were created, and successes and limitations of the series. Their commentary is hilarious and engaging, even if you have only a cursory knowledge of the series. I’m always rewinding back to listen to a funny comment just to laugh a second time. Absolutely subscribed and can’t wait for the next episode.
  • RFTierney
    LSG does it again!
    Love these guys, will be listening to any product they put out!
  • Danafox24
    Best Thing to Happen in 2021
    I’ve been eagerly anticipating the launch of this show for years. As a loyal LSG Media Illuminati member, I always secretly hoped Nate and Dean would take this show to the public and it finally happened! I am a pretty diehard Trek fan but the best part of this podcast are the tangents that happen that don’t necessarily have anything to do with the episode in question. If you like casual, relaxed, hilarious and irreverent discussion with naughty words, this podcast is for you.
  • KevRan624
    This Isn't Your Daddy's Star Trek Podcast!
    Once again, Dean and LSG Media hit it out of the park with another instant hit to add to their already impressive catalog of podcast content. "Kirking Off" is a delve into the tasteful and classy world of Star Trek with the usual blue comedy and insightful critique that I've come to know to be the staple of the company's flavor. The fact that the show covers multiple series in the Star Trek universe only adds to the accessibility and welcomeness. Dean once again delivers, and cohost Nathan is a pleasant foil to our familiar host. "Kirking Off" is truly a welcome additition to my Favorites bar. I look foward to the next listen!
  • BriKop
    Boldly going where Trek feared to tread
    The LSG franchise has been prolific and excellent in all its permutations over the years. This addition is no exception. Two longtime friends poking fun at the lighter....... and sometimes much, much darker (looking at you Lt. Barclay....) side of Trek. The decision to cover all of the series in no particular order has freed these guys up to riff and free associate off of the ideas that Trek sparks in all of us. Whether you are looking for critical analysis or a laugh out loud pod, this covers all the bases. Okay, a little less analysis, but a very unique take on Trek that you won't find anywhere else.
  • PatHarrington8604
    Seagal was the first Vulcan.
    I am not a die hard Star Trek watcher. I've seen a handful of episodes across all the series. That said, this podcast is EXCELLENT. I don't need all the info. I don't need a deep dive into the minutiae of every minute of an episode. It's Trek talk for the common man. The Dusty Rhodes of Trek podcasts, of you will. If you like Trek and have a good sense of humor, check this out. Dean and Nathan do excellent work on this show and I enjoy the conversation.
  • JustCollin
    Another success
    Tbh I don’t consider myself a Star Trek fan, nothing against it, just never got into it. But I always enjoy hearing the LSG folks talk about anything. 5/5 HIGHLY recommend 👍🏻
  • JayBru0302
    A breath of fresh air in the Star Trek universe!
    This is the perfect podcast for anyone who likes or loves Star Trek and doesn't take themselves or the show too seriously. The hosts cover one episode per show but it really isn't necessary to have watched it in advance. Great conversations, often hilarious and also insightful and a great way to romp through the Star Trek universe as they dip in and out of different shows - check it out!
  • RLF0009
    Insightful Hilarity
    Have been hooked on LSG Media’s stuff since discovering the Science Fiction Film Podcast a couple years ago, and this show is some of their best work. If you’re a Star Trek fan, new or old, have a listen (and many, many laughs) as Dean and Nathan illuminate your understanding of both the best and silliest parts of the storied franchise.
  • Can'tThinkOfName!
    Do yourself a favor and listen
    If you’ve ever wondered who cleans up the holodeck after Barclay has a “session” with Deanna, then this is the podcast for you. Dean and Nathan give us a refreshing blend of reverence and irreverence as they talk us across the Trek universe. There are few podcasts that let you both think and laugh. Give them a try and you’ll be hooked...or offended...probably both.
  • Donchata
    LSG Media at its best! You must engage!
    A great conversational take on all things Star Trek! It's funny, insightful, witty and offers a unique view on episodes from every Trek series. LSG Media has always created wonderful content with The Lost Drive-In, The X-Files Podcast, The Hawkins Report and many more. Give a listen. You won't be disappointed!
  • The Dude9
    Unique To The Max
    OK, this is not your typical Star Trek podcast. Dean and crew take quite a blue look at some of the most interesting episodes of Star Trek across all of the series incarnations. To say that Dean and Nathan have unusual perspectives would be a massive understatement. The dry wit and humor will keep you entertained. The (sometimes coarse) language will keep you on your edge if the family is around, so be warned! But, all in all, a massively entertaining venture!
  • TrekFan75
    So much fun
    You can tell the hosts are having a blast with this and you can’t help but have one right along with them. All Trek is up for grabs, so there’s something for everyone. Great job.

    Romulan Ale Level Podcast
    This podcast is a MUST LISTEN for any trek fan from the lowliest of cadets to a-holiest of admirals. Itch the trek aural fixation with this. It’s hits the SPOT every time!

    The makings of Greatness
    Are you a fan of RLM, stand up comdeians, are you a fan of insightful reviews with a large dose of irreverant humor? Then this is the podcast for you.
  • LurchWurm
    Great Conversational Style and Fun Titles
    These guys keep it light and conversational while making you think occasionally. You will definitely be doing deep belly laughs from time to time. Keep up the great content!
  • Kefka2200
    Engaging
    Look no further for hosts who know their lore and can keep newbies and veterans alike very entertained. LSG Media comes at you with another home run of a deep dive into a beloved franchise. Instead of going chronologically, they jump around and talk all things trek. Both Dean and Nathan offer wonderful insights and have a great back and forth that keeps listeners feeling like they’re a part of the conversation. Well done! -Mikey Marinara
