Trek 60 (and Surprise Guest Cirroc Lofton!)

In this special episode of Trek Geeks presented by FanSets, hosts Bill Smith and Dan Davidson celebrate the 60th Anniversary Year of Star Trek with a look back at the moments, series, and stories that shaped the franchise across six decades.

Sixty years after the debut of Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek continues to inspire new generations of fans, creators, and dreamers. Bill and Dan explore the legacy of the franchise from the optimism of The Next Generation to the moral complexity of Deep Space Nine, the resilience of Voyager, and the bold spirit of Strange New Worlds. Along the way, they discuss the characters, episodes, and themes that still resonate today, and how Star Trek has continued to evolve while holding onto its hopeful vision of the future.

The conversation also touches on what this milestone anniversary means for fandom today, from conventions and collectibles to the exciting new productions expanding the universe.

Plus, the guys are joined by a surprise guest: Cirroc Lofton, beloved for his role as Jake Sisko on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and recently seen reprising the character on Starfleet Academy. Cirroc drops in to share his thoughts on Star Trek's legacy, fandom, and what it means to return to the role of Jake all these years later.

It's a celebration of sixty years of Star Trek filled with great conversation, plenty of laughs, and a reminder of why this franchise continues to boldly go where no one has gone before.
