Scribbler Joins Talking Trek! Prodigy Stories, Alliance Tournament Fixes & Epcot Chaos

Scribbler joins Talking Trek for a full creator showcase episode packed with Star Trek history, Hollywood stories, Star Trek: Prodigy memories, STFC discussion, and a whole lot of Epcot planning chaos. Shauna Benson talks about her journey from Disney cast member and IT work to Hollywood writing, her time on shows like The 100 and Star Trek: Prodigy, favorite Easter eggs, “Murder Planet,” Planet Larry, and what made Prodigy such a special on-ramp for new and lifelong Trek fans alike.

Then we shift into Star Trek Fleet Command with a detailed conversation about Alliance Tournaments, rerolls, store strategy, monetized tasks, catch-up mechanics, mid-ops changes, G6/G7 progression, and what Scopely may need to rethink before Alliance Tournaments return. Finally, Scribbler helps the Talking Trek crew plan the upcoming Disney / Epcot IRL stream, including drinking around the world, park logistics, checkpoints, streaming rules, sunscreen survival, and what could possibly go wrong. Spoiler: probably everything, but beautifully.
