If by podcasts you mean audio, let me offer you an assortment of fan audio dramas and comedies: http://startrekreviewed.blogspot.com/2009/06/247.html

Glad you asked! Star Trek:Excelsior just released a new episode. You can download it or stream it at www.starshipexcelsior.com. One cautionary note, we are deeply into a complex story arc that will probably leave a new listener completely confused. We do have a guide for new listeners that will help you decide which episode to listen to first. You can go to that page by clicking here.

Am I the only one who finds it amusing that people are using state-of-the-art 2012 technology to listen to what are basically "radio plays", a dramatic form that is almost a hundred years old?

Those of us who make them certainly are glad there are people who do that!

But seriously, the theater of the mind can take you places even a movie screen can't.

There's an old joke in radio that a little boy was asked why he liked radio more than tv..."Because the pictures are better" he said.

I have noted that it is ironic that the growth of the iPod and smartphones saved the first mass entertainment medium.

Absolutely! People are listening to stories, both those they would have watched and those they would have read.

Trekcast is fun. I tried listening to Transporter Room3 this morning. They spent the first 10 minutes making fun of an overweight female fan in a Seven of Nine costume. One of them suggested that she should dress as General Koord instead.

Not exactly the sort of thing I want to fill my brain with in the morning.

I love these guys http://www.trektvpodcast.com/ Funny discussions of every episode in order from the start. They have just finished TOS and are now doing TAS.

Irreverent, but they love the subject matter deep down.
