Starbase 66 show

Starbase 66

Summary: Somewhere out in the forgotten depths of space, near the borders of the Klingon, Minbari, and Cylon empires floats Starbase 66. This lonely island of civilization is manned by a triumvirate of uber-nerds whose knowledge of Star Trek, and Science Fiction is as vast as the uncharted depths of the cosmos. Join the Admiral, Lieutenant Ro Karen, and Lieutenant Kennedy as they while away the hours between canasta games with Dave in the brig by discussing anything and everything Trek and/or SciFi. No medium is off limits as they talk about television, movies, books, graphic novels, toys, and even graphic arts and news. Join them and their frequent guest stars from all over the world for a sometimes serious, sometimes silly, but always interesting talk about your favorite forays into the multiverse of speculative fiction.

 Priority One Distress Call | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3:07

In the last couple of months my wife, Emily, fell and tore her meniscus in her knee, then we found out that our landlord has to sell our house and we must move. We thought we could handle it, but our health insurance only covers a fraction of the cost of surgery, and we have to come up with over $1000 just for the doctor and surgery center. This puts our ability to move into someplace safe for our 7 year old daughter in grave jeopardy, so I have had to swallow my pride and come to you wonderful people for help. Moving will also cost between $1-2000, so anything you can do to help will be deeply appreciated. I am trying to find a part time job to supplement our income, but so far no one wants to hire a 54 year old to stock shelves. Emily's surgery is supposed to happen on the 28th of September (we were unaware that the surgery center would demand cash up front despite us having health insurance) so please help if you can. Thank you so much! We love you all!!!  www.gofundme.com/emily039s-surgeryhave-to-move
