Class is back in session! Study Hall will be back at PHIT on Saturday, June 28th at 7:30pm. The only show of its kind in Philly (and most any other place). This month our full time faculty member, Professor Michael Yudell, will be vacationing on some tropical island and is unavailable to do the show this month. I actually don’t remember if he’s vacationing or just busy, but either way. He’ll be missed.

This installment of Study Hall will feature guest Professor Sarah Robey from Temple University! In a special American History themed show to celebrate the 4th of July, Professor Robey and the “students” (improvisers) team-up up to create a full hour of spontaneous comedy inspired by various topics pulled from our nation’s history. So not only will you laugh throughout the hour you’ll actually leave the show having learned something!

This show also welcomes 3 new performers to the class! Melinda Messina, Rob O’Neill, and Jacob Todd. Each is a fantastic addition to the cast and will no doubt help to make you laugh so much that you forget anything you just learned. Don’t be late to Study Hall!

Study Hall features: David Donnella, Frank Farrell, AJ Horan, Lora Magaldi, Melinda Messina, Rob O’Neill, Jacob Todd, Becca Trabin, Aaron Unice, Caitlin Weigel, Addie Weyrich. Directed by Mike Marbach.

Star Trek: First Contact

Assimilate this! In honor of First Contact Day (4/5), the Prime Subjective crew discuss the second Star Trek: TNG film (and eighth Trek film overall), 1996’s Star Trek: First Contact, directed by none other than Jonathan “Two Takes” Frakes!

The Prime Subjective: TNG S07E19 & S06E14

We’re back with some classic trek episodes! In this episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman Hinners and Michael Henley are joined by Bev, Philadelphia’s (Drag) Queen of Comedy. In this episode they discuss two classic episodes of Next Generation: Genesis and Face of the Enemy. Their wide ranging discussion runs the gamut of wig sizes and ill fitting jumpsuits to wondering why the captain needs to go find an erstwhile photon torpedo.

Lower Decks S05E09 & 10

It’s time for one last trip through the Lower Decks! In this huge momentous episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coleman-Hinners and Michael Henley go for one last ride on the Cerritos as we discuss Lower Decks Season 5 Episode 9 – “Fissure Quest”, and Lower Decks Season 5 Episode 10 (and series finale!) – “The New Next Generation.” We discuss Bashir/Garak, multiverses, unexpected guest stars, and ultimately close the book on Lower Decks and determine the exact flavor of its delightful, nutty legacy. Enjoy!

Star Trek: Section 31

It’s time for a Star Trek movie event! In this episode of The Prime Subjective, Chris Newcomer, Karie Coelman Hinners and Michael Henley take a break from the end of Lower Decks to discuss Section 31, the new Paramount Plus original Star Trek movie starring Michelle Yeoh. In this episode we discuss this would-be TV series turned into a movie…featuring Emperor Georgiou, Quasi, Zeph…and Rachel Garrett? It’s not quite a TV pilot, not quite a feature film, but it is definitely a fun discussion regarding this divisive latest entry in the Trek family.
