Trek Geeks - A Star Trek Podcast is a casual discussion on Star Trek between two friends that have known each other for 20 years.

Each week, Dan Davidson and Bill Smith will highlight various Star Trek topics covering The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise...as well as the new feature films and independently produced shows! In addition, they'll stump one another with trivia and have conversations with various contributors and celebrities throughout the Star Trek Universe.

They were the first adversary introduced in Star Trek and probably the alien race that's changed the most! We mean the Klingons, of course!

From their beginnings in TOS' "Errand of Mercy," they have changed so much--not only in appearance, but also in their society and lore. We'll break down some of the early history, talk about the changes, and even some of our favorite Klingons of all time! Plus, Bill finally relents on one Klingon. It's all in Episode 60!
