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.

Our Women of Trek spotlight series continues this week as we take a look at one of Star Trek's original contributors.

She was an absolute force of nature, and in this episode we'll examine the roles played by Majel Barrett Roddenberry in front of the camera, behind the scenes, and in fandom itself.

Number One, Christine Chapel, Lwaxana Troi...even the Enterprise Computer, Majel left an indelible mark on the franchise and created characters that we continue to talk about to this day.

But there was far more than that. Majel was an Ambassador of Trek, especially in the years after Gene passed, and we'll examine that aspect of her life as well, and consider her legacy.

Plus, we'll have a full length preview of the brand new Five Year Mission Podcast at the end of this episode and don't forget about your exclusive FanSets discount code!
