We're on Star Trek.com !

October 8th, 2010.

HAILING FREQUENCY podcast now providing audio blogs for the official STAR TREK. COM website.  http://www.startrek.com/article/guest-blog-hailing-frequency-podcast

copied from startrek.com:
Founded in 2005, Hailing Frequency was the first podcast dedicated to Star Trek gaming. They have produced over 120 podcasts and are now the leading source for all Star Trek gaming news. They regularly interview producers from such companies as Cryptic Studios and GameForge.


This podcast marks the first time they have created material specifically for StarTrek.com. The hosts, Zach Nicodemous and Tony Tuthill, take you on a journey through the Star Trek gaming timeline and give you the inside scoop on what games to play. Look for more podcasts from them on StarTrek.com as well as the Hailing Frequency website.
----------------------------------------------------
Y'a know.  We have been featured on many sites and there have been a lot of great moments in the last few years but none that actually fills me with a bit o' pride like being featured on the official Star Trek web site! 

Other than hanging out on the various gaming forums over the years, startrek.com was the site where it began for us as gaming podcasters and where many of us met in the early days to decide on doing a community gaming  podcast.

It is truly where many of us met as we came together to wait and brainstorm on Star Trek: Online (the MMORPG).
----------
I was worried a few years back as there was a major overhaul of management and for a long time the site just sat kind of stagnant.  Gaming news was not updated regularly and when Cryptic Studios took over making Star Trek Online, the site showed Perpetual Entertainment as the makers almost right up until launch.
 
It was truly awesome to finally see our old friend get a make-over and much needed TLC.   The new site is beautiful, full of great stuff including great articles, episodes and extras, gaming news, merchandising etc.   Kudos to CBS for finally getting behind Star Trek (so it seems).

A big thank you to my podcast partner of over five years, Zach Nicodemous.  He made this happen.
He has been working tirelessly to keep Hailing Frequency in the lead as the #1 Star Trek gaming podcast as well as seeing our dream of launching a Star Trek Radio station (http://www.startrekradio.com/  & http://www.sto-radio.com/)
 
In the last month he has secured interviews with: Tim Russ (Tuvok), Chase Masterson (Leeta), Warp 11( Star Trek band), Rod Roddenberry, Wil Wheaton, etc.   ( Tim Russ, Chase masterson & Warp 11 have already appeared on sto-radio.com)
 
Thank you for a great day, Startrek.com.
Thank you for another great day, Zach.
