This episode’s picture is of quatloos – oh lovely, lovely quatloos.

Chris & Keri took some time off to give back to the podcasting community at Space City Con. We hosted a Podcasting 101 panel with the help of people from other wonderful podcasts, including:

• Paul Cooley from the Shadow Publications, a podcast of stories, writing fiction, and the occasional author rant! 
• Justin Macumber from the Dead Robots’ Society Podcast (Paul Cooley also works on this one), a podcast for aspiring writers, by aspiring writers.
• David Wood from Thrillercast. David assures us it’s not a podcast about Michael Jackson. Instead,  ThrillerCast is a podcast for readers and authors of thrillers, action-adventure, science fiction, fantasy, and more, as long as it’s thrilling!

 

So, we decided to record it, and thought it could perhaps be useful for other people!

For it, we passed out a few materials that we thought could help people.

• A Guide to Podcasting by Treknologic – A basic guide to podcasting and how to get started.
• Podcast Equipment Breakout by Treknologic – A breaktout of various levels of sound equipment.

Also, shoutouts go to the following podcasts that attended:

• Geek Girl Soup – A podcast about TV, movies, books, and more from a Geek Girl’s perspective.
• Warlocks Games & Brew Podcast – A superb idea that we will definitely be supporting for the Houston community! From their website: “We will feature our own beers of various styles and influence while providing a competitive and casual gaming environment for the beer enthusiast and gamer alike. Our goal is to facilitate a certain fantasy by means of cultural submersion from the décor, language, and dress of our facility and wait staff. Waitresses and bar staff will become characters that customers will recognize from their favorite games and movies. The walls and furnishings will have interactive elements that only help to bring the customer into a realm they are already familiar with, the realm of nerd culture. Nothing will be quite like it.” They’re not open until October, but we’re happy to give them exposure!

• 8 photonic lifeforms
• 7 redshirts dying
• 6 Qs Annoying
• 5 Wraths of Khan
• 4 evil Spocks
• 3 Bat’leths
• 2 Class M Planets
• and a giant furry tribble colony.

 

We Wish You a Merry Trekmas

• Lyrics by Chris & Keri’s kids and Captain Chris, Music by MattPlaysKeys, Vocals by Melissa “MW”

We wish you a merry Trekmas (x3)

and a Borg-free new year

Trek play things we bring for you and your friends

We wish you a merry Trekmas and a Borg-free new year!

So send out the many redshirts (x3)

So they don’t die here

Now bring us some Klingon bloodwine (x3)

To give us good cheer

Trek play things we bring for you and your friends

We wish you a merry Trekmas and a Borg-free new year!

We all want Trekkie presents (x3)

Please gift us good gear

Trekkies help others with kindness (x3)

Love to all our peers!

Trek play things we bring for you and your friends

We wish you a merry Trekmas and a Borg-free new year!

We wish you a merry Trekmas (x3)

and a Borg-free new year

 

Honorable St. Kahless

• Lyrics by Captain Chris, Music by MattPlaysKeys, Vocals by Melissa “MW”

Honorable Saint Kahless, Klingon founder true,

Bring my Klingon warriors, weapons shiny ‘n new,

Trekmas eve is coming soon; drink your good bloodwine,

Tell me what you’ll bring them, for you we will die!

When the clock is striking twelve, asleep we all are,

In the ship you’ll beam right in, even though it’s barred,

Combat boots outside our door, lying in a row,

Battle Fek’lhr to our boots, he is all our foe.

Katogh wants a bat’leth strong, Karg, a gin’tak spear,

G’trok wants a pain stick long, blades are so last-year;

As for me, the great Captain, I am true and right!

Choose for me, St. Kahless, a disrupter bright!

 

Fire Now (to the tune of Jingle Bells)

• Lyrics by Chris & Keri’s kids and Captain Chris, Music by MattPlaysKeys, Vocals by Melissa “MW”

Warping through the stars

To find new forms of life

A ship of peace armed to the teeth

In a galaxy full of strive! <pew pew pew>

Romulans decloaking

Giving us a fight

Shields up, looks like we’re in

for a space battle tonight.

Fire now, fire now, Torpedoes away!

Phasers lock on their engines

So here they have to stay!

Fire now, fire now

Every torpedo bay!

Looks like our superior

Firepower has won the day!

Fire now, fire now, Torpedoes away!

Phasers lock on their engines

So here they have to stay!

Fire now, fire now

Every torpedo bay!

Looks like our superior

Firepower has won the day!

Looks like our superior

Firepower has won the day!

This is not a normal Listening Post. What does that mean? Well, the listeners of Treknologic have taken on some role-play like Captain Sixx and his crew do in the regular podcast. In this case, they are hosting Crew Appreciation Day, where they honor the regular podcasters with a wonderful show they put together themselves.

This is a CLEAN COPY. In the main podcast, you’ll hear to Treknologic hosts pause and comment throughout the Crew Appreciation Day project.

From the hearts of Chris, Keri, Mike, Jane, and Ben, thank you!

Contributors are listed in the main podcast, since I only want to edit one of these posts.   🙂
