Sci-Fried
Sci-Fried was formed in early 2007 by Chuck Silver and Jim Frederick out of a love for Science Fiction and Rock music, bringing life to the new and exciting concept of “geek rock”. Joined by the Chuckcon crew, we began writing parodies of popular songs with the flavor of our favorite movies and TV shows. Dr. Vern and Mike Jensen (KSV) soon added their vocal abilities. With Sunni Simmons on Bass we bringing the true vision of Sci-Fried to life. The parodies led to original music of the same “geek rock” flavor. The evolution of Sci-Fried into its present day Force was complete.
Some of their most popular Star Trek songs include; My Name Is Spock 2.0, TNG 2.0 and Trippin’ Through The Wormhole

Eugene Roddenberry

Most recently, Eugene has been working on the upcoming “Trek Nation” documentary which features a series of exclusive interviews and unique look at the life of Gene Roddenberry through his son’s eyes.
In 2009, he formed the Roddenberry Dive Team which is dedicated to the exploration, education and preservation of the Earth’s oceans.
In addition, he worked as a production assistant on Star Trek: The Next Generation and has acted as a consultant on the Star Trek: New Voyages / Phase II fan series.

Coming Soon….
Also coming in November, we will be hosting a live interview with Rick Sternbach. Rick Sternbach has had a long involvement with Star Trek – he worked as an illustrator on Star Trek: The Motion Picture and later worked with Andrew Probert on the creation of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Sternbach helped define the look of the 24th century that would be used throughout The Next Generation and the series that followed it, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager.
Finally, towards the end of November, we will be broadcasting a pre-recorded interview with actor and comedian Simon Pegg – perhaps best known to trek fans worldwide as the new “Scotty” from “Star Trek: XI”. We got the chance to sit down with Simon Pegg in October for a mammoth five hour interview which is currently being edited down to a more digestable size.
Be sure to look for broadcast dates for both of these interviews later on in November.
