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.

With Star Trek's 50th Anniversary Year coming to an end, what better way to close it out than to look at the career of one of Trek's central figures?

It's undeniable that William Shatner has had an amazing career and done so many amazing things that we think he deserves his own holiday!

Back in 2009, Bill declared the first-ever Shatnermas on his Facebook page and now, he and Dan have turned this celebration into an eight day affair and reintroducing it on the podcast!

They've each selected one clip for each day of Shatnermas. Which ones did they pick?  Listen in to find out!

There are so many great clips to celebrate the long career of The Shat--which ones are your favorites??

Plus, we'll talk some news and we'll have a special message for Terry Farrell all in Episode 87 of the Trek Geeks Podcast!
