The D-Con Chamber

Robert Picardo joins Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating for a wide-ranging conversation, with particular emphasis on his latest return as The Doctor in Starfleet Academy. He now serves as Chief Medical Officer on the USS Athena, centuries older, more experienced, and still evolving in unexpected ways. Bob reflects on stepping back into the role at this stage of his career, what has changed, what hasn’t, and how the character fits into a very different era of Star Trek.

This conversation was recorded just one day after the announcement that Starfleet Academy will conclude with its second season, so we delve into Bob’s immediate reaction to the news, including his knowledge on why the show is ending. We speak about his contributions to the show, including episode ideas that sadly will never get to air. Along the way, he and Connor and Dominic revisit The Doctor on Voyager, and how his legacy carries forward into this final chapter.

Each week in The D-Con Chamber, we boldly revisit Star Trek: Enterprise through behind-the-scenes stories, watch-along commentaries, and conversations with the people whose lives were forever changed by the franchise. Whether they are breaking down classic episodes or welcoming special guests from across the Trek universe and beyond, hosts Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer mix laughs, insider perspective, and Trek appreciation in every episode.

Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer -- and special guest star, director David Livingston -- watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "The Seventh". T'Pol has some unfinished super-secret Vulcan business to attend to, and no one is safe, least of all Bruce Davison! We're honored to have David with us to offer his unique insights into what happened behind the scenes - fire! snow! stunts! Just don't mention the focus pulling!

Denise Crosby joins Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer on a very special Star Trek Cruise episode of The D-Con Chamber, recorded live on the Caribbean Sea. With the ship rocking beneath us, Denise had a full theater hanging on every word as she shared stories that spanned her remarkable life and career, from Star Trek and beyond. Effortlessly charming and with tales to fill three lifetimes, we wish we could have spoken for hours.

Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "Marauders". The desert gear gets another opportunity to shine in this David and Goliath battle over the right to deuterium. The Klingons learn a hard lesson here: teach a man to build a fire, and he will be warm for the night. Set a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life.

Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer watch Star Trek: Enterprise's "A Night in Sickbay". Some of you love it, and some of you love to hate it! There's a mad dash to save Porthos and Archer is getting increasingly antsy... and horny. Along the way, we have a funeral in the rain, a bat caper, Freudian (Pillarian?) slips, and a human centipede of decon chamber delight. What's not to like, really?

Each week, we explore and celebrate the lives that the Star Trek universe has forever changed. From former and future cast and crew members to celebrities, scientists, and astronauts whose personal and professional journeys have been affected by the franchise, we sit down and dive deep with a new friend, laughing and learning from their stories. Sit back, grab a drink, and join our hosts, Dominic Keating and Connor Trinneer, as we get geeky in The D-Con Chamber.
