Show notes

IN SPACE, THE ONLY WARRIORS ARE COLD WARRIORS. THIS VOYAGE, the one you've been waiting for is here: it's STEVE ASBELL, president of 20th Century Films vs. DAREN R. DOCHTERMAN (vfx supervisor, Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Director's Edition), along with recently confirmed judges MARK A. ALTMAN (showrunner, Pandora; writer/producer The Librarians, Castle, Agent X) and ASHLEY E.

No peace in our time. "Once more unto the breach, Steve and Daren..." And this battle is to the death.
