Greetings, Captains! You’re listening to EPISODE 325 OF PRIORITY ONE: A RODDENBERRY STAR TREK PODCAST, your weekly report on all things Star Trek! Recorded LIVE on Thursday, July 6th, 2017 and available for download or streaming on Monday, July 10th at PriorityOnePodcast.com!
This week, we’re Trekking Out why you shouldn’t get too attached to any of the characters in Star Trek Discovery, and we’re also dealing with the bombshell that James Marsters from Buffy the Vampire Slayer could have been the star of Star Trek Nemesis. In Star Trek Online and other gaming news, the Infinity Lockbox is back with some new goodies in preparation for the Season 13.5 release, and Star Trek Timelines has launched a new Klingon mega-event! Later, Jake and Cookie are over on The Promenade and they’ll be convincing us to part with some of our hard-earned gold-pressed latinum…or not, as the case may be.
And of course, before we wrap up the show, we’ll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages!

Hey P1! Hope you guys are well.
I think that the Klingons have the best Star Trek death scenes. Very evocative and emotionally satisfying. From K’Ehleyr’s death as she holds hands with Worf and Alexander 🙁 , to General Chang cheesily spouting Shakespeare while staring at an oncoming torpedo. From Kor going out in a blaze of glory to reclaim his honor one last time, to Gowron getting stabbed by Worf after the latter is thrown through a glass screen, and the life is drained from Gowron’s (slightly creepy) eyes. Klingons really live up to their mantra; “Today IS a good day to DIE!”
Honorable mentions to Spock in Wrath of Khan and Kirk in Generations. Those always give me the feels. 🙁
Am I a Star Trek Gamer? Said on a podcast with Trek games as a central element. :p Of COURSE I’m a Trek gamer. Besides obviously Star Trek Online, I’ve played Bridge Commander and the Armada games. I love the opportunity to have some of my own adventures in the Star Trek universe.

Very fun show everyone.
Data’s was the most powerful death.
Just STO, my favorite part is the wonderful ship designs.

Awesome as always. My favorite death in the entire series had to be Harry Kim’s during the split between the two voyagers. Yes the duplicate Harry takes his place but at that point you felt so bad that the original Kim would never make it home…. Until Jet’laya inside the Kobali Temple…hint hin Dust to Dust Episode of STO~
Also I am a Star Trek Gamer. A Star Trek ONLINE Gamer. I love Star Trek Online because it feels IP Based and Star Trekky. I came to this game from Star Wars the Old Republic which, imo, not only does F2P wrong but feels like generic scifi with a Star Wars name. It doesn’t immerse me into the Star Wars Universe the way STO immerses me into the Trekverse. I love both IPs equally but gamewise, I love STO the most.
Oh and just because Tony will lose his mind, I wrote a story where my ship’s helmsman pulled out an emergency joystick. They called it the “Riker Emergency Protocol”. FFrakkin joysticks.
