Hyperchannel 83: VHS is Out of This World! by Trek fm

The “Encounter at Farpoint” Promo Video.


When you need your Star Trek fix, it's so easy today to just fire up Netflix, iTunes, or even put a physical disc into a player. Every episode of Star Trek is right at our fingertips. But it wasn’t always that way. There was a time when video tapes were a treasure. StarTrek.com’s recent sharing of a TNG promo video—still in shrink wrap—brought back so many memories. Join us for a stroll down VHS Memory Lane.

Hyperchannel 82: Roooooxann! by Trek fm

2016 Projects for Voyager’s Dawson.


We all know that Dawson began her move from acting to directing while still on Voyager, where she directed "Riddles" and "Workforce, Part II." But after she retired the role of B’Elanna, her career behind the camera really began to soar. Over the past decade and a half, she’s helmed episodes of some of the biggest shows around. 2016 will be no different. We take a look at three big projects being added to Roxann’s resume.

Trek.fm is made possible by our listeners. For quite some time now we've been looking at ways to better delivery perks and exclusive content to you. We've finally found the solution, and it’s called Patron Zone.

But what does that mean? In this episode of Hyperchannel, Trek.fm Executive Producer Norm Lao and Content Manager Will Nguyen (who happen to both have quarters aboard the NX-01), join me to talk about why they first decided to support the network, how they became so involved in what we’re doing, and how we can all take ownership of our fandom. We also give you a rundown of what our new perks system is and what it means for you.
