chakotay shooting torres JPGStar Trek VOY: Unity, TNL Rating: 7/10 Exceptional, running time 1:29.

Join the crew of the USS Relativity as we discuss Star Trek DS9: Children of Time. Captain Chris, Mike, and Bill  try to  earn some quatloos playing trivia hosted by Question Master Keri. Keri was out of town and thus unable to record this episode.

This episode’s picture is of the traitorous Chakotay shooting B’Elanna.  We have quite the discussion on whether the new Cooperative is good or bad. Was this entire episode a trap, or was it a genuine need? There was not a good picture of the 5 people “attacking” the compound.

We can get a little off topic at times but everyone is nice. Thanks for listening to our free Star Trek audio Podcast. If you like it, please consider giving us a nice 5 star review on iTunes. That will help us grow and keep us going, and prevent someone from going to the agony booth!

TNL Special 114A – Podcasting 101

Posted by in Podcast, tags:

 

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.

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!

TNL114 – Star Trek DS9: Children of Time

Kira JPGStar Trek DS9: Children of Time, TNL Rating: 7/10 Exceptional, running time 2:01.

Join the crew of the USS Relativity as we discuss Star Trek DS9: Children of Time. Captain Chris, Mike, and Bill  try to  earn some quatloos playing trivia hosted by Question Master Keri.

We had a leveling problem that wasn’t noticed during production, so that Keri, Mike, and Bill were really loud (and you could hear their environmental sounds) while Chris was really soft. Keri spent a great deal of time trying to prevent us from scrapping this show, but there are still some audible issues with the audio.

This episode’s picture is of Kira and Kira. Yes, the blink and you miss it shot of two quantumly separated Kiras that lead to the whole idea of creating two Defiants with two crews.

This episode’s picture is of Joe Gieb, the post-atomic horror bell ringer. We really liked him, and wished he had an expanded speaking part. He was really getting into it. Great job Joe!

This week’s cast shout outs:

  • Bill: Bill’s band Nipsey is the show band on a local New York City television show, The Big Quiz Thing. The show, which premiered 2013-07-14 on the NYC Life channel, hasn’t yet shown up on VOD, but you can see their clip, “What is a Nipsey?” where they take a quick look at the band. Bill is the long-haired dude that plays guitar. Find it here.
  • Chris: The Materials Research Society, bringing us closer to the future. It shows us that the future isn’t necessarily the old-fashioned cyberpunk mechanical arms, but tightly integrated organic electronics.
  • Keri: The guilty-pleasure show Whodunnit? 
  • Mike: XKCD – Which made us think of XKCD 771.

Show notes:

Next week: We review Mike’s pick of DS9 Children of Time. Same Trek time, same Trek feed!

This episode’s picture is of the fabulous goats we discuss during the podcast. We’re pretty sure they furnished some of the snazzy looking outfits worn by different people encountered by the TOS crew throughout their missions.
