Quantcast
Starbase 66

Somewhere out in the forgotten depths of space, near the borders of the Klingon, Minbari, and Cylon empires floats Starbase 66. This lonely island of civilization is manned by a triumvirate of uber-nerds whose knowledge of Star Trek, and Science Fiction is as vast as the uncharted depths of the cosmos.

 

Join the Admiral, Lieutenant Ro Karen, and Lieutenant Kennedy as they while away the hours between canasta games with Dave in the brig by discussing anything and everything Trek and/or SciFi. No medium is off limits as they talk about television, movies, books, graphic novels, toys, and even graphic arts and news. Join them and their frequent guest stars from all over the world for a sometimes serious, sometimes silly, but always interesting talk about your favorite forays into the multiverse of speculative fiction.

 

Hosted by: Rick Tetrault, Ro Karen and Kennedy Gordon
