Lt. Saavik from Star Trek, and much more!
Season 5 blasts off with a bang as we sit down with the incredible Robin Curtis. She's not just any guest; she's a Star Trek icon, renowned for her portrayal of the unflappable Saavik in 'Star Trek III: The Search for Spock' and too briefly in 'Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.' We dive into her journey in the Star Trek universe, get her thoughts on Saavik, and maybe uncover a few behind-the-scenes secrets. Trekkie or no, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
