Larry Nemecek

On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling talks about Sci Fi and Fandom with Jonathan London, Larry Nemecek, and Kandas Rodarte. All three are podcasters, creators, and beyond enthusiastic about their chosen paths. Jonathan is a writer/director/producer, Geekscape.net; Larry is a "pop culture entrepreneur," Trekland; and Kandas is the founder of Gratitude Geek. The trio share their backstories - including but not limited to their love of science fiction - and passions for pop culture ... and go on many tangents! The beauty of Sci Fi, they said, is "If you can imagine it, it can happen." It was the perfect panel of Star Wars Day." May the 4th be with you. Goals - Kandas: Go to a pop culture convention. Experience the amount of joy - because everyone there is happy - Jonathan: Explore inner ideas. Then write forward - using paper! - Larry: The next time you are watching or reading something and get wound up about something they've done wrong, take a breath. Use it as inspiration to make something else Final Thoughts - Jonathan: Don't hate. Create! - Larry: Trek Well! - Kandas: Never give up, never surrender Learn More About - Jonathan London: Geekscape.net - Larry Nemecek: LarryNemecek.com - Kandas Rodarte: GratitudeGeek.com - Debra Eckerling: TheDEBMethod.com/blog TheBookProposalExpert.com Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, we have a special supplemental podcast recorded live at WonderCon last weekend in Anaheim (so forgive the suboptimal audio). Our friend TrekLand’s Larry Nemecek was hosting a panel with a variety of podcasters and Star Trek superfans as participants, including our own Anthony Pascale. The panel was originally going to cover the online debates surrounding Starfleet Academy, but the show not getting picked up for a third season pivoted things. Here is the official description from the WonderCon schedule. Star Trek at 60: Starfleet Academy: Real Uniter or Faux Divider? Is it 2017 again? Star Trek turns 60 with a host of anniversary plans, but Starfleet Academy has bowed with more controversy than any recent series since Star Trek: Discovery’s heated first year. With SFA’s first season wrapped, “Dr. Trek” Larry Nemecek (The Trek Files, Portal 47) asks a host of Trek industry vets for their own takes on the series as well as the meta-reaction to it: Is that initial negative reaction by some critics and fans more about clickbait-chasing talkers and review-bombing than actual criticism and nuance? an we sense whether IRL armchair Trekkies feel as mainstream critics and activist fans do—in support? Panelists included Neal Hallford (DP, Con of Wrath), Matt Jennings (1701: A Blerd Story), Tony Kim (Hero Within), Giraffe (Strange New Pod), and Anthony Pascale (TrekMovie).

Hello Doctor! Hello Doctor! Dr. Trek, aka Larry Nemecek, joins us to talk about all things Star Trek. Larry is a longtime podcaster for Roddenberry Podcasts, hosting shows such as Trek Files and Trekland Tuesdays. We talk about a documentary that he's working on called "The Con of Wrath", a fun little play on words from Star Trek II: Wrath of Con. Larry tells us where the name comes from and how that Star Trek comic con in 1982 almost came together and ultimately fell apart. We cover a lot of Trek Land, see what we did there, and have a great conversation with someone who has one of the greatest depths of knowledge Trek has out there.
