She's All Over The Place

EUGENE “ROD” RODDENBERRY President/CEO Eugene Wesley “Rod” Roddenberry, Jr. serves as guardian of the Roddenberry legacy, which traces back to the original Star Trek.  Through inspiring science fiction projects and philanthropy, he champions its timeless and universal ideals as embodied by the philosophy of IDIC: Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations. The son of legendary science fiction producer Gene Roddenberry, whose Star Trek series changed the face of television and continues to inspire today, Rod has followed in his father's footsteps to be a catalyst in the creation of a world where humanity works together for the greater good. In 2004, Rod became chief executive officer of Roddenberry Entertainment, a science fiction leader with a tradition of groundbreaking entertainment. The company builds on the best of Gene Roddenberry's work and continues to develop a multimedia slate of thought-provoking projects spanning film, television, graphic novels, comic strips, podcasts and other mediums. Rod is executive producer of Star Trek: Discovery, heading into its third season in 2020, as well as the live-action Star Trek: Picard and the animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks, to debut in 2020. He also spearheads the Roddenberry Podcast Network, whose Mission Log is distinguished as the most downloaded of all Star Trek podcasts. In 2011, the critically acclaimed documentary Trek Nation chronicled Rod's decade-long journey to explore his father's life. The undertaking inspired him to fully embrace the vision Gene had for the world and invest himself in its future. One expression of this was the founding of the Roddenberry Foundation, which funds innovative solutions that address humanity's greatest challenges across such areas as science, technology, education and the environment.   Stay Connected:  https://www.roddenberry.com https://roddenberryfoundation.org https://www.instagram.com/eugeneroddenberryofficial/     https://www.chonacas.com/links   Business: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiechonacas/

This week on Episode 524 of Priority One: New York Comic Con is ready to Trek Out; the community rallies behind Wilson Cruz; Star Trek Online updates its minimum system requirements; mobile games cross to desktop; and we review Lower Decks' “Where Pleasant Fountains Lie”–but not before we chat with Cryptic Studios's Content Creator Ryon and Environment Artist Gianna! TREK IT OUT Edited by Thomas Reynolds Trekking Out the Big Apple By Elio Lleo Convention season is in full swing and New York Comic Con is next. Starting October 7th and ending October 10th, this four day event usually has stuff for everyone! Unique to this year's presentation is hybrid participation: not only are organizers reducing the total number of attendees, you can also purchase a virtual ticket that will give you access to some of the panels right from the comfort of your own home. But what's so special about NYCC? As of right now, Paramount+ is slated to present at least two panels: on Saturday, October 9th at 12:45pm the cast and producers of Star Trek: Discovery take the Empire Stage. Then on Sunday, October 10, Star Trek: Prodigy will premiere its first episode along with a panel. Image: ViacomCBS/Nickelodeon, via TrekCore. But that's not all–join the Roddenberry Podcast Network as we present a panel titled “Star Trek's Guide to Community.” I'll be there along with Kennedy and Sue from Women at Warp! That's happening Saturday, Oct 9th at 2:15pm. There's also a Hallmark presentation with new Trek ornaments, a virtual only panel with the folks behind the new Star Trek Magazine, and even Bill Shatner will be there on Thurs, October 7th.  Wilson Cruz Harassed During Star Trek Day By Elio Lleo When it comes to communities, even Star Trek's can be incredibly divisive. The majority of the time, it's about NuTrek vs older Trek, who the better first officer is, or which ship is cooler. However, there are times when things can get dark and people start to show their true colors–like one fan who was offered the privilege of attending the Star Trek Day celebrations in person. Long story short, at one point during the event, while Wilson Cruz was on stage, someone in the audience yield out a homophobic slur. According to reports, no one did anything about it. The guest was not removed nor have they been identified (yet). With incredible grace and patience, Wilson continued on and later took to Twitter to address the matter. https://twitter.com/wcruz73/status/1436333680880934927 Although he may not have wanted to draw so much attention to the matter, we want to take a moment to remind you–our listeners–that tolerance for the bigoted has its limits. When you see something, say something. Learn ways on how to be the best ally you can be for people who are marginalized on a daily basis. If you're on social media and someone goes on a hate-filled rant, step up. It's the inaction of those with the means to stand up to injustices that empower those who want to watch the world burn. [If you don't think this belongs in Trek, then there's the airlock. Help yourself.–Ed.] Image: ViacomCBS, via StarTrek.com IP Theft, the Sincerest Form of Flattery By Cat Hough On Monday, we were treated to the big uniform reveal by General Jay Raymond, Chief of Space Operations for Space Force who tweeted, "Every winning team needs a uniform!.I'm excited to share the new look with you today." And to no one's surprise, the Twitterverse immediately noticed some striking similarities to some other uniforms that we are quite familiar with. They were described by one person as "a blend of the Star Trek Enterprise dress uniform, but with the Mirror Universe diagonal."  https://twitter.com/SpaceForceCSO/status/1440323962697752590 [I am voluntarily putting this into my own shownotes for your edification, dear listener. You owe me.–Ed.] Josh Weinstein, a veteran writer for The Simpsons and Futurama, said the uniform reminded him of the ridiculously tight outfits worn by Zapp Brannigan; Movies in Focus hopped on the satirical bandwagon with the image of an Imperial Star Destroyer officer from the original Star Wars trilogy. "These new Space Force uniforms are looking great," jokes the caption. Quick News Roundup Here are a few headlines that we didn't discuss but might interest you. Reuben Klamer, the designer of the original Starfleet phaser rifle for the original series of Star Trek, passed away at the age of 99, according to the Toy Association. Klamer also designed props for other shows, including a gun for the hit 1960s series The Man From U.N.C.L.E.  https://youtu.be/oWGNDoXG9R8 STAR TREK GAMING NEWS Edited by Thomas Reynolds PSA: She Canna Take Any More, Cap'ns! By Thomas Reynolds To every thing there is a season–and in Cryptic's opinion, the season for Windows 7 is long past. Starting February 15, 2022, anyone still using the 10-year-old OS (seriously, not even Microsoft supports it anymore) won't be able to patch or log into STO and Neverwinter. Only Windows 8 and 10 (with the superior 64-bit intellect) will have a home on the final frontier. DirectX 10 support is also getting ejected like a spent warp core on February 15th, with both games requiring Feature Level 11 or higher. That means your computer needs to have one of the following video card chipsets to play: NVidia GeForce GTX 400 or better ATI/AMD Radeon HD 5000 or better Intel HD Graphics 4000 or better Given all the fun and excitement of buying graphics cards these days, if your current card isn't up to the task...well, godspeed. [Pictured: my rig next February.–Ed.] Image: ViacomCBS, via KVNF Public Radio. Aux2Bat Gets Boimed Out By Thomas Reynolds The aqueduct, the magnetic compass, the Aux2Bat. All of these simple technologies have withstood the test of time, but the last may be the most miraculous. Needing only three Technician doffs and one boff ability at minimum, the Aux2Bat ship build is easy to assemble, trivial to fly, and still keeps your bridge officers ready for whatever space wizardry you demand of them. Sure, it hasn't been the meta in a sehlat's age, but you know what? Aux2Bat does the job, it does it pretty well, and that's pretty much all we ask...until now. Ever drop a Gravity Well, and notice your Tyken's Rift is now off-limits for 15 seconds? That's the Shared Category Cooldown kicking in, forcing you to pace yourself rather than let everything rip at once. When Cryptic first released the Boimler Effect trait, it provided a 2.5% percent chance of resetting every bridge officer ability to its Shared Category Cooldown, whenever you used a non-specialist boff ability. Great in theory, but one-in-forty odds just aren't worth a 200 Lobi investment. Yeah, that's was also our reaction. Image: ViacomCBS, via TrekZone.de So Cryptic did a little tweaking, like you do, and made it a 17.5% percent proc chance instead. As STO streamer @AugmentedDG declared on Twitter, “Boimler Effect is now as good as Aux2Bat...for cooldown reduction.” Bold words, to be sure, but there's also a fairly convincing clip of him keeping eight of his escort's twelve boff abilities concurrently running like an overambitious plate spinner. Trek out the tweet, scrape together that Lobi, and give your boffs more buffer time than they can handle. https://twitter.com/AugmentedDG/status/1438707179268284425 Is there in Screen Accuracy No Beauty? By Thomas Reynolds One of Trek cosplay's hallmarks is its hair-splitting fidelity to what's seen on screen, even when the creators themselves don't quite pull it off. Combine that tendency with STO's promise of personal immersion, and it's no surprise that some players want their captain's threads to look “correct.” To help make that a little easier, Cryptic released official in-game color guides for both the newly-available Lower Decks Starfleet jacket, and their original Khitomer uniform creation. However, rapturous Space Barbie enthusiasts should make sure they're using the second released Khitomer guide, as the first one had incorrect pant color codes. https://twitter.com/trekonlinegame/status/1439020385572245509 The Sally Ride, the Ross, and You By Shane Hoover If you were a fan of the Star Trek Adventures web series “Shield of Tomorrow” or “Clear Skies”, you're already familiar with the dangers and wonders of the Shackleton Expanse. If you weren't, then be prepared for deadly spatial phenomena, ancient alien technologies, first contact with new species and lots of boldly going. It's all there in Modiphius Entertainment's newest STA sourcebook, the Shackleton Expanse Campaign Guide. The new sourcebook is available for preorder at $60 now and is expected to ship in December 2021. This is your tabletop gaming crew's chance to follow in the warp trails of the U.S.S. Sally Ride and the U.S.S. Ross. Adventure into a nearly uncharted region of space beyond Federation, Klingon and Romulan borders.  Image: Modiphius Entertainment. The new material includes five new playable alien species for STA including Orions. It also includes NPCs from Starbase 364 and around the Expanse, as well as stats for “hero” and NPC vessels. This sourcebook does require a copy of the Star Trek Adventures core rulebook, which is provided in PDF form with your order. The Ar-mod-a Returns By Thomas Reynolds Maybe 2000 feels like a long time ago to you, maybe it doesn't. Either way, the Star Trek: Armada and Armada II RTS games that came out then still hold a place in certain PC players' hearts. So much, in fact, that the Stellar Parallax modding group has finally released what Activision would not: Star Trek: Armada III. Starting as a one-person passion project back in 2012, Armada III is a full-conversion mod for 2012's Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Stellar Parallax's devoted faithful can now command the Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Borg, or Cardassian Union at the beginning of the Dominion War. See, Kurtzman? You can have more than one kind of ship in a fleet. Image: Stellar Parallax. But really, how much demand is there for a nine-year-old game mod, following up on a twenty-year-old series? After its September 10th release, Armada III is the 51st most-popular mod on the ModDB site, out of over 46,000 entries across hundreds of games–so we'd say “a lot.” [Update: #21 as of publication. Damn.–Ed.] Quick Star Trek Gaming News Roundup A few weeks back we mentioned that the mobile game Star Trek Fleet Command was beta testing a desktop client for Windows. Well, they're out of beta and it's now available for download, with special perks being offered when you log in via desktop! Game maker WizKids announced a new combo-building game titled “Star Trek Missions” –according to their announcement, “your goal is to assemble the highest-scoring combos possible by drawing cards from the Galaxy deck, the Mission deck, or the discard area.” It'll be available February 2022, but you can pre-order now.

In Star Trek gaming, Timelines celebrates its newest event, and Crypto Space Command goes to Black Alert. Then, Dr. Robert Hurt joins us for this week's Astrometrics Report Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we'll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Question Is: CQ: Does Star Trek need Star power to entice new fans? Do you think the addition of an Actor like Will Smith or Brie Larson would help or hurt Star Trek? TREK IT OUT by Jake Morgan “It's Interview Time” With Dawnn Lewis Kelvin Pike had “Punch it”. Prime Pike had “Hit it”. Lorca? “Go”! Picard posthumously procured Prime Pike's “Engage” from “The Cage”. So who could blame Cerritos Captain Carol Freeman for wanting to follow Starfleet trailblazers by conjuring up her very own catch phrase - though “It's Warp Time” may need a little work.This week, Dawnn Lewis - the voice of the aforementioned Captain Freeman - talked with TV Guide about her love of Star Trek, the Captain's relationship with her daughter, and what she wants to do next.  Lewis told TV Guide about her history with Star Trek, saying ”I used to risk getting into trouble in order to watch Star Trek because it would come on when my brothers and I were supposed to be asleep. We would get in front of our little, small black-and-white TV with blankets and sheets covering us to make a tent to muffle the sound so that we could watch the adventures of Captain Kirk, Lieutenant Uhura, and Mr. Spock traipsing through the galaxy” In regards to Captain Freeman's relationship with her estranged Daughter - Ensign Beckett Mariner, Lewis said ”Their relationship reminds me of growing up a preacher's kid. [...] you often find that the preacher's kids are probably the baddest kids in the church. They are trying to break every rule, trying to be everything except what their parents have been trying to encourage everybody else to be. So even if you're one of the best parents, sometimes your kids can still make choices that you really wish they would not make.” Dawnn Lewis, who is currently working with Lower Decks co-star Jack Quad on Amazon's “The Boys”, talked about what she wants to do next, telling reporter Keisha Hatchett ”Please make me an alien in Discovery, Picard, somewhere. Please make me an alien. I want to do it” CBS All Access Gets a New Name - Paramount+ Have you been waiting with bated breath for the announcement of CBS All Access' new name?

Have you forgone relationships, job opportunities, and basic hygiene for fear of missing the news when it finally drops? Well friends, the wait is over. So call your family, get your resume up-to-date, bathe yourself, and get ready for the big reveal!  But seriously, you should clean yourself up. On Tuesday September 15th, Viacom CBS dropped the news that starting in early 2021, the service formerly known as CBS All Access would soon and henceforth be called - Paramount+.  CEO Bob Bakish said in a press release ”Paramount is an iconic and storied brand beloved by consumers all over the world, and it is synonymous with quality, integrity and world-class storytelling. With Paramount+, we're excited to establish one global streaming brand in the broad-pay segment that will draw on the sheer breadth and depth of the ViacomCBS portfolio to offer an extraordinary collection of content for everyone to enjoy.”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnfDBLIprkQ&feature=youtu.be Deadline reports that ViacomCBS' other streaming service - Showtime - will continue to operate independently from the newly named Paramount+, but that the Australian “10 All Access” will fall in-line with its US counterpart. No definitive announcements were made about price, tiering, or availability outside of the US and Australia - which are undoubtedly big questions that need answering. Keep listening, we'll let you know more when we find it out!. Star Trek Receives a TCA Heritage Award Finally this week, we'd like to congratulate Star Trek on its Television Critics Association Heritage Award! From StarTrek.com ”The Television Critics Association (TCA) was proud to bestow the Heritage Award upon Gene Roddenberry's landmark 1966 sci-fi epic Star Trek, in recognition of the groundbreaking series which brought the future to life — illustrating a unique vision that is equal parts hopeful and cautious as it explored issues such as bigotry, religion, politics, sexism, and human rights through timeless stories of love, war, intrigue, and adventure in outer space — with the help of a strong cast that was among the first to feature an African-American actress in a significant leading role.”. The son of Star Trek creator, head of the Roddenberry Podcast Network, and our friend - Rod Roddenberry - accepted the award. Once again, we'd like to congratulate Star Trek on this well earned award! RUMOR REPORT: Will Smith Being Eyed for Trek!

This week on Episode 478 of Priority One --- We ‘Trek Out’ why Dawnn Lewis thinks Mariner is like a preacher's daughter, CBS All Access’ new name, Star Trek’s TCA Heritage award, and a trip to Bel Air! In Star Trek gaming, Timelines celebrates its newest event, and Crypto Space Command goes to Black Alert. Then, Dr. Robert Hurt joins us for this week’s Astrometrics Report Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we’ll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Question Is: CQ: Does Star Trek need Star power to entice new fans? Do you think the addition of an Actor like Will Smith or Brie Larson would help or hurt Star Trek? TREK IT OUT by Jake Morgan “It’s Interview Time” With Dawnn Lewis Kelvin Pike had “Punch it”. Prime Pike had “Hit it”. Lorca? “Go”! Picard posthumously procured Prime Pike’s “Engage” from “The Cage”. So who could blame Cerritos Captain Carol Freeman for wanting to follow Starfleet trailblazers by conjuring up her very own catch phrase - though “It’s Warp Time” may need a little work.This week, Dawnn Lewis - the voice of the aforementioned Captain Freeman - talked with TV Guide about her love of Star Trek, the Captain’s relationship with her daughter, and what she wants to do next.  Lewis told TV Guide about her history with Star Trek, saying ”I used to risk getting into trouble in order to watch Star Trek because it would come on when my brothers and I were supposed to be asleep. We would get in front of our little, small black-and-white TV with blankets and sheets covering us to make a tent to muffle the sound so that we could watch the adventures of Captain Kirk, Lieutenant Uhura, and Mr. Spock traipsing through the galaxy” In regards to Captain Freeman’s relationship with her estranged Daughter - Ensign Beckett Mariner, Lewis said ”Their relationship reminds me of growing up a preacher's kid. [...] you often find that the preacher's kids are probably the baddest kids in the church. They are trying to break every rule, trying to be everything except what their parents have been trying to encourage everybody else to be. So even if you're one of the best parents, sometimes your kids can still make choices that you really wish they would not make.” Dawnn Lewis, who is currently working with Lower Decks co-star Jack Quad on Amazon’s “The Boys”, talked about what she wants to do next, telling reporter Keisha Hatchett ”Please make me an alien in Discovery, Picard, somewhere. Please make me an alien. I want to do it” CBS All Access Gets a New Name - Paramount+ Have you been waiting with bated breath for the announcement of CBS All Access’ new name?
