Episode 68: A Night or Seven in Sickbay

We are BACK!!!!!!!! Sorry about our absence. David was stricken with a serious case of Klingon Butt Fever! He is out of sickbay and recovering in his own quarters now! But we are back on a weekly basis thank you for sticking with us during David’s illness.

Be sure to stick around after the outro for off topic but a fun serious conversation between Guy and David about the ending of Enterprise!

So we hope you enjoy! Alright grab your Klingon Butt Fever antibiotics your pain medication and most of all your drink of choice. It’s time for your weekly shot of Star Trek!

Episode 67: The Enemy Within connection problems!

Episode 67: The Enemy Within connection problems!

This week Tawnya and David welcome Victoria Schmidt (Scruffy Rebel) back to the show to talk The Enemy Within! Victoria was able to attend the Star Trek Fan event on May 20th and we got to hear about her experiences at the event and her thoughts on the new trailer. As we started to talk about the Enemy Within, her cell connection became unsteady and we were not able to keep her for the duration of the episode. We hope to have her back again soon so we can do a full episode with her. Prepare for more outtakes than usual so keep listening after the outro music! Well it’s that time again grab whatever drink will wet your whistle it’s time for your weekly Shot of Star Trek!
