Winona Forever #035 – Star Trek (2009)
In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay are joined by Lee Wiesblatt to talk about Winona as Spock’s mom, weird Star Trek-related trivia, and how much this version of Star Trek fails its women.
In this episode there were a few things mentioned that we thought might warrant more information:
- First, our hosts mention the Canadian film Last Night, in which guest host Lee Wiesblatt played the younger version of writer/director/actor Don McKellar. Find yourselves a copy so you can see now-internationally-famous Canadian Sandra Oh and director David Cronenberg act in a 1998 film about the end of the world in Toronto.
- Lindsay mentions the band The Vulcan Dub Squad, which are both a Star Trek reference and majorly Canadian content. To listen to their music, visit their Bandcamp page. She’d also like to correct her memory about their masks. They did originate as a mask-wearing band.
- Speaking of mask-wearing bands, Lee mentioned Lindsay’s husband’s podcast about The Residents. You can check out Title In Limbo here.
- Finally, Lindsay’s interview with William Shatner from 2010 is available online. It was meant to be fluffy, so don’t judge her by the uninspired line of questioning.
