Positively Trek 216: Star Trek Conventions and the Fans Who Love ThemPlus: New Project for Trek Writers, New Trek Podcast On the Way, and Star Trek Loses a Favourite Villain  In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Barry DeFord and Dan Gunther discuss the phenomenon of the Star Trek convention. Why do we love them? What are some of our experiences, both positive and negative? And what would a year-long Trek convention be like? In the news segment, we discuss a new project being undertaken by Star Trek: Discovery writers Bo Yeon Kim and Erika Lippoldt, newly-announced expansions for Star Trek: Ascendancy, the return of Star Trek: The Pod Directive and new Trek podcast Khan: Ceti Alpha V. We also discuss the sad news of the recent loss of Deep Space Nine’s Louise Fletcher. Korean Family U.S. Drama Series In Works From ‘Dr. Brain’ Director Jee-Woon Kim, ‘Star Trek’ Pair Bo Yeon Kim & Erika Lippoldt And eOne - https://deadline.com/2022/09/jee-woon-kim-bo-yeon-kim-erika-lippoldt-korean-family-drama-1235120820/Review — STAR TREK ASCENDANCY Moves into the Gamma Quadrant with New Dominion War and Breen Expansions - https://blog.trekcore.com/2022/09/review-star-trek-ascendancy-moves-into-the-gamma-quadrant-with-new-dominion-war-and-breen-expansions/‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ Actress Louise Fletcher Has Died - https://trekmovie.com/2022/09/24/star-trek-deep-space-nine-actress-louise-fletcher-has-died/ Show page: http://www.positivelytrek.com/Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628Twitter: http://twitter.com/positivelytrekFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrek Help support the podcast!
