TrekRanks Episode 182: Abstract Fire

Originally released on April 26, 2024

Listen to the show :

"Fire!" As in "Abstract Fire," which sees TrekRanks return to one of our most popular recurring topics. This week it's a discussion of one of the original "elements" – fire, which, of course, can mean a lot of different things in the Star Trek universe. This is a fun one for host Jim Moorhouse and guests Bill Mann and Craig Main to get deep into the lore of Star Trek through a lens one wouldn't expect. Nothing is too abstract for TrekRanks!

Episode Rundown:

One Diagnostic Cycle: We recap the previous Abstract topics and breakdown what "fire" could potentially mean in a topic like this.

Prime Directive: Each guest on this week's panel reveals exactly how they narrowed down their list and made their final choices.

The Order of Things: All the picks are revealed with the TrekRanks' original "Five words and a hashtag" summary, along with one episode that helps frame their choice.

Secondary Systems: For a few extra picks that just missed our final list.

Regeneration Cycle: The panel recaps their picks and we dissect some of the interesting statistical anomalies that arose from the discussion.

Temporal Inversion: We flashback to a previous episode of TrekRanks and relay some of the feedback received from listeners.
