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.

It seems like forever since we've sat down and recorded a standard Trek Geeks episode, and we're back with our wrap-up of the amazing 2016 Las Vegas Star Trek Convention!

We met so many amazing people during the convention, one of whom was one of our favorite podcasters: Norman Lao from Trek.FM and also the Fandom Podcast Network, where he hosts Blood of Kings: A Highlander Podcast!

Norm sits down to talk to us about his first-ever STLV and some of his cosplay! We'll talk about some of our favorite experiences, convention going, dressing the part, and even throw in a healthy dose of pop-culture references for good measure!

Plus, we'll play catch up on some of the things that have happened since our last pre-Vegas episode, we'll run through the latest Star Trek news from TrekNews.net, and we'll make a special announcement regarding a new podcast for you to enjoy in January 2017!!

We had a lot of fun recording this episode and we hope you'll enjoy it!
