My Next Generation

Rik Carranza

Welcome to My Next Generation, the father and son Star Trek podcast where lifelong fan Rik introduces his son, Jonah, to the Star Trek universe one episode at a time. Each week, we watch and review an episode together, capturing the hilarious, honest, and surprisingly insightful reactions of a child discovering Starfleet, the Federation, Klingons, Borg, and more for the very first time. A celebration of Star Trek, fatherhood, family, and passing the love of sci-fi to the next generation.
