This episode of the Comfort Blanket podcast describes very well how I feel about Star Trek. I am younger than the guest so my comforting Trek is a little broader, including TOS, TAS and TNG, but the feelings are the same.

Saw some horrible news. Distracted myself by looking up the etymology of "whippersnapper":
*a seventeenth-century term for a young man with nothing better to do than to hang about idly snapping a whip*
I feel much better now.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, @joelmorris has no guest for the latest episode of @comfortblanket* - it's up to *you* to step in. What lovely thing are you bringing to the table?
I'd bring The Simpsons.
Mrs McG would bring Gilmore Girls.
(* not really, this is just a silly game)
(Also, if you don't already, listen to Comfort Blanket, it's brilliant.)

It’s Christmas! So here are some Yuletide #ComfortBlanket choices…
Ho Ho Ho! It’s ultimate Christmas action movie (outclassing even Stallone’s ‘Cobra’ and ‘The Wild Geese’)…

Time for #introducing the podcast, I suppose!
#ComfortBlanket is a podcast presented and produced by @joelmorris where people who make cool stuff that I like, come on and talk about warm stuff that *they* like: a #film #TVShow, #book or #record that they return to as a welcoming, safe place. No guilty pleasures, just great things.
It’s been picked as one of the Sunday Times’ “TOP 25 PODCASTS TO MAKE YOU HAPPY”
“Highly recommended” The Week

#introduction Hello! I’m a #writer, mainly #comedy for TV, radio, film & books. I did all those #ladybird books for grown ups, and co-created spoof local newspaper #framleyexamimer. I write Philomena #Cunk and the Charlie Brooker TV shows, wrote on the #paddington films, contribute to #viz comic and did #agendum and #angstrom for the radio. I make the #comfortblanket podcast (and used to do #ruleofthree…) Oh, and I’m in the band #candidate. My favourite school lunchbox sandwich was corned beef.
