A Conversation with Noah Averbach-Katz Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

In this special crossover episode of Discovering Trek, Dan and Bill are honored to have Noah Averbach-Katz join them for a special discussion about his time on Star Trek: Discovery Season 3 as the Andorian, Ryn. The character quickly became one of the most popular of the season and Noah got to live out every Star Trek fans dream by playing a role in our beloved universe.

During our conversation, we discuss his fandom when he was young, what it was like to be directed by the Star Trek legend Jonathan Frakes, and what it was like to work with his wife Mary Wiseman, aka Sylvia Tilly. Along the way we also find out just how...interesting it was to film scenes with the Queen herself - Grudge the cat!

Bill and Dan cannot thank Noah enough for joining them on the podcast, and they hope you enjoy the conversation as much as they did on Discovering Trek!

FIVE YEAR MISSION

Music for Discovering Trek is provided by Five Year Mission. They're writing one song for each episode of The Original Series! Plus, check out their podcast right here on the Trek Geeks Podcast Network!

Farking Awesome, Volume 1 Jan 13, 2021

Show notes

In the second year of the Trek Geeks Podcast, Dan started doing puns during our weekly thanks to the band Five Year Mission. Before too long, those evolved into Farkisms--where he'd take the name of drummer Andy Fark and turn that into some kind of pun on an episode name.

For years, people have been asking us of an episode of just the Farkisms, and there are so many, we had to break it up! So, this week, enjoy our first installment of Farkisms in "Farking Awesome, Volume 1!"

2020 Outtakes Special, Part 2 Jan 06, 2021

Show notes

2020 is coming to a close and that means it's time for a long standing tradition here on Trek Geeks!

In 2015, we started to include our pre/post-show banter as a little clip after the end theme of the podcast and, since then, it's really taken on a life of its own. It provides a tiny glimpse into our friendship and typically has us laughing quite a bit.

This week we conclude our two part 2020 Outtakes Special, featuring all of the "Bing Bong" moments from throughout the year.

We hope you all have a safe, happy, and healthy New Year!
