Jonathan Frakes on his Star Trek family, Next Gen struggles, Directing, and Fan Con secrets

Hey everyone! In this episode, I get to sit down (leg over the chair) with the lovely Jonathan Frakes, who, of course, played the legendary (and dreamy) William T. Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

We dive into so much—getting the role on Next Gen, his first directing job, and even his thoughts on the convention circuit and the sweaty fans. You guys, I so want to be in Star Trek and I’m hoping Jonathan can help me do that. I pitched myself pretty hard here, so fingers crossed!

Stick around for the hindsight to find out how much of a Star Trek nerd my producer, Jeph, is while we answer your comments and emails in the Mail Sack.
