Below you'll find a list of all posts that have been categorized as “Life Support LIVE”
We began in the early pandemic—April 18, 2020 to be exact — trying to help Star Trek fans “go boldly in uncertain times” in those early, uncertain and yes fearful weeks. Dr. Trek and Dr. Ali Mattu: one of us being “a real doctor.” But as we just announced on-air live Saturday, Life Support LIVE in its WEEKLY form is …
Yes, but HURRY: You have a third shot from Trekland at a Season 1 Bluray copy of Lower Decks. Hurry because it’s tomorrow— Saturday, May 22 (I warned you Tuesday, right?) during our regular Life Support LIVE show with Dr. Ali—right before we open up for “Hailing Frequencies.” Same entry path: Go RIGHT NOW and enter —the drawing is THIS …
Three— count’em three— are the ways you can catch some flavor of Trekland at the makers/scifi non-profit convention Penguicon out of greater Detroit, now in its second virtual edition and with me frozen in time once again as a Guest of Honor. The con runs Thursday through Sunday with not just panels but social events and “Makers Mart,” all online …
It was all borne of the lockdown, pandemic, and a cancelled WonderCon panel — but Life Support LIVE is still Boldy Going through uncertain times… with a great Lifers community who have joined us along the way, every Saturday live (and later, in archives!) Each week, “Dr. Trek” here and Dr. Ali Mattu — “one of us is a real …
This time, they’re a little more planned and a little more polished: But the COVID-cancelled 2021 edition of WonderCon — little brother to granddaddy San Diego Comic-Con— is back in virtual form March 26-27 (for starters). And Dr. Trek is proud to be moderating/co-hosting and taking part in THREE fun, thought-provoking pre-recorded virtual Trek panels with many friends and colleagues, …
News of the not-unexpected cancellation of STLV in December, and delay until another August slot, makes this timing perfect: Just when Trek peeps are missing cons again … here comes Virtual Trek Con 2 THIS weekend, FIVE days from today/Thursday through Monday. And all FREE! (PayPal donations are accepted, however.) The first edition only last July was such a hit, …
Well, just like the pandemic that sparked it…. THIS sure blew up fast. Only, in a good way. In case you hadn’t heard, Virtual Trek Con is running NOW— quick! Go see! All organized by my buddy (and fellow Tellarite) Ryan T. Husk and The 7th Rule podcast. And from modest roots it has exploded into six days of mostly …
Saturday the Fourth (of July) is a holiday in the U.S., obviously. But Saturday is also, 12 weeks in, the day Dr. Ali and I do Life Support Live — much to my growing enjoyment and pride. And we almost didn’t do a show on the holiday. But then we said, “Let’s do a special!” How about… a watch party! …
