ENGAGE with Trekkie and Trekker

The Moopsy in the Moonlight with Georgia

In this episode of ENGAGE with Trekkie and Trekker, we 're exploring Georgia… a London-based Trekkie whose Star Trek favorites stretch from the moral complexity of Deep Space Nine to the hilarious chaos of Lower Decks. Georgia shares how Star Trek grew from childhood background noise into a meaningful source of comfort, connection, and inspiration. We talk about Data, difference, autism, belonging, Kira’s strength, Mariner’s energy, and why In the Pale Moonlight stands out as one of Star Trek’s most powerful explorations of war, ethics, and impossible choices. And yes… we absolutely make room for the Moopsy. From thoughtful reflections on identity and empathy to joyful fandom tangents about tricorders, Ferengi, and the episodes that stay with us, Georgia reminds us that Star Trek can challenge our thinking, lift our spirits, and help us find our people across the stars. Come for the Moopsy. Stay for the moonlight. Live long and prosper.
