In the latest round of non-news for the upcoming Star Trek sequel, Nestor Carbonell (who we loving refer to as Batmanuel) says that he would "be thrilled" to play Khan in the next movie.

"Well, it would be tremendous, it would be amazing," Says Carbonell. "I know that ['Lost'] has already opened many doors for me, and that's the great thing about this business, that you never know which job you do will help you out with other jobs. This show has given me and my family so much, so if that were to happen, it would be tremendous."

We listen to tons of podcasts every week, but there are two that have a special place in our eight chambered hearts.  Trekcast and SciFi Diner Pdcast our both friends of the site and have launched two fantastic episodes this week.

First off David, Darren, & Alicia talk all about Star Trek Online.  What's not to talk about? The game just launched and every Ferengi and his brother is online and phasering away.  As usual, they answer your subspace signals and give an all around entertaining show.  Oh, and we learn that plomeek soup is flavorless.  Check out and excerpt from the show notes below.

Star Trek Online's official head Start begain today with tremendous response from the community.  We were there at 10:00 AM PST and had a tough time logging in and we weren't the only ones.  Many reports around the twitterverse were complaining of the same issue.  Finally, at a little after 10:30 we got our first response from the login server.

Another key problem right off the bat, was the availability of the "Lifetime Subscription" liberated Borg.  Many users were reporting that the Borg wasn't listed as a character option

Cryptic did release a quick update letting fans know that they are on top of the issues.
