Trek Untold: The Star Trek Podcast That Goes Beyond The Stars‪!‬ Matthew Kaplowitz

She's been a murderous psychic child, a holographic Victorian heiress, a recovering alcoholic country singer, and a whole lot more! While her time in Trek was limited as a child, Lindsey Haun's career has been filled with ties to the franchise that remain to this day, in a career where her talents always shined brightly.


Lindsey appeared on three episodes of "Star Trek: Voyager" in two different roles. First, she was Beatrice Burleigh in the episodes "Learning Curve" and "Persistence of Vision," a character from Captain Janeway's holonovel. She followed that up as Belle in the third season episode "Real Life," the holographic daughter from the EMH's programmed family. Lindsey talks to us about her time working with Kate Mulgrew and Robert Picardo, as well as her fictional brother Thomas Dekker, her joy of wearing the gothic outfits, lessons from director Anson Williams, and other fond memories of her time on set.


Lindsey also starred in Stephen King's "Village of the Damned," along with Wrath of Khan's Kirstie Alley, Christopher Reeve, Mark Hamill, and Thomas Dekker, and explains the Trek connections to that film. She also worked with DS9's Penny Johnson Jerald in a Disney film called "The Color of Friendship," notable for being the only Disney movie where the N-word is said! Plus, her time with Toby Keith, Willie Nelson, and Burt Reynolds in "Broken Bridges" and how today she brings her talents behind the lens to produce movies of her own!

Alan Altshuld has not done many interviews before, and even fewer about his time on Star Trek, where he performed four times in two different series. This veteran has spent considerable time in the theater and in TV commercials, along with his work on shows and movies, which I'm excited to share with you now.


Alan told us about how he got discovered by Jeri Taylor to make his first Star Trek appearance in TNG, the deceptively complicated makeup job for that "Starship Mine" role, getting physical with Jonathan Frakes, and eating weird sci-fi food on "The Gambit." After TNG, we learn about his pair of "Star Trek: Voyager" credits, including crawling on his hands and knees to please his Ferengi overlords in "False Profits" and performing as a strange Catati alien in "Day of Honor" with serious makeup constraints that caused him to alter his methods. Plus, find out which major Trek role Alan was under serious consideration for!


Beyond Star Trek, learn about Alan's connection to Walter Koenig through the theater world, the unique curriculum he learned early on about the practical side of being an actor along with the horrors of the infamous "NY Audition" class, some of his notable commercial roles including being a part of the Vegetarian society in a famous Little Caesar's pizza ad, his time on Baywatch being tied up with Pamela Anderson, and working with Tom Hanks in "The Money Pit" driving a Volkswagen Beetle that no one could see out of!

Laura Banks is familiar to Trekkies from her role in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" as Khan's navigator aboard the USS Reliant. One of her earliest acting roles, Laura went from a model to a performer, starring in Roger Corman B-movies and eventually pivoting into writing.


Laura takes us on a trip through her origins in Hollywood to her time in Star Trek, working with Ricardo Montalban and Nicholas Meyer, becoming an Augment who spent time on Ceti Alpha V in The Botany Bay, and later a Federation Starship, and more from her unique work in that film. But, of course, Laura has other Trek connections too, like being an improv troupe with Whoopi Goldberg and eventually spending time with William Shatner (and DS9's James Darren) in "TJ Hooker,".... as well as some off-screen stories you have to hear!


Plus, working with Roger Corman on "Wheels of Fire," writing comedy and best-selling books, and her new autobiography "The Wrath of Blonde"!

Bruce Horak played Hemmer for the first season of "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" on Paramount Plus. This Aenar (a member of the Andorians) was chief engineer aboard the Enterprise, serving under Captain Pike, and was a mentor to Uhura through his distinguished service on that vessel. On this episode of Trek Untold, we meet the renaissance man underneath all that makeup, Bruce Horak.


 Bruce made history as the first visually impaired actor to appear in a Star Trek series and brought a unique perspective to his character. Beyond Star Trek, Bruce has an inspiring life story that he uses his art to tell, from the cancer that led to his blindness to the way he interprets the world around him due to his impairment. He is a profound stage performer, expressive painter, and one heck of a Starfleet crewman!


We discuss some of Bruce's work on stage as well as how he grew up, the way he paints, and plenty of tales from the set of SNW, including working with Anson Mount, Celia Rose Gooding, and the entire cast from that spectacular show, and a ton more in this extensive and in-depth interview with one of the most beloved characters from that debut season.

Check out this behind-the-scenes look at the new off-Broadway show for Trekkies filled with ear worms - in more ways than one. "Khan!!! The Musical" is a Star Trek parody musical that retells The Wrath of Khan in a unique and hilarious way. On this episode of Trek Untold, we pull back the curtain on this show with a special "spockumentary" featuring exclusive footage and interviews with some of the people behind this show while we observe one of their final rehearsals before hitting the stage.


I'm chatting with Brent Black, AKA Brentalfloss, on YouTube and director John Lampe to understand how this homage to musical theater came together! Then, meet some of the stars, including Shyaporn Theerakulstit, Laura Whittenberger, and Julian Manjerico, to get the scoop from the performers! Plus, a first look at several of the songs in the show that have never been seen before!


 Khan will run for a five-week limited engagement at the Players Theatre (115 MacDougal St, New York, NY 10012) starting May 4 and wrapping on June 4.


 "Khan!!! The Musical" is co-written, composed, and lyrics by Brent Black (AKA Brentalfloss), co-conceived and additional materials by Alina Morgan, musical direction by Nicholas Kaminski, choreography by Angel Reed, and directed by John Lampe.


The production stars Shyaporn Theerakulstit as Kirk, Zachary Kropp as Khan, Julian Manjerico as Data, Clayton Matthews as Sulu/Chekov, Lindsey M.E. Newton as Bones/Scotty, Max Nusbaum as Spock, Crystal Marie Stewart as Uhura/Carol Marcus, and Laura Whittenberger as Saavik.

J. Paul Boehmer has six Star Trek TV credits to his name, two in the video game world, and a long list of other credits in Theater, TV, and film.


You may remember J. Paul as a Nazi officer in the two-part "Star Trek: Voyager" episode "The Killing Game" and another one in the Enterprise episode "Storm Front," the Borg named One from "the VOY episode "Drone," the Cardassian officer named Vornar from DS9 "Tacking Into The Wind," and the Vulcan who found a new home named Mestral from the classic ENT episode "Carbon Creek." He also did voices in the Bridge Commander game and played Gowron's brother in "Klingon Academy" on PC.


In this honest, informative, and emotional interview, J. Paul told us stories from his theater days and how one show led to his first Star Trek role as the Nazi from VOY, playing another Nazi years later in Enterprise while performing with Scott Bakula (and why one Naiz had a German accent and the other didn't).


J. Paul also fondly recalled the heartwarming story about his Vulcan ears from ENT, the intense makeup to play this brand new style of Borg in "Drone" and the hardships of wearing that much prosthetics and neoprene, how playing a Borg helped him become a better Vulcan, meeting Christopher Plummer while working on the game, and much more! We also have some Star Trek adjacent talks about being in "The Orville" with three other heavily made-up aliens and working with Seth McFarlane and Adrian Palecki,


Plus, performing a play that literally combined "Hamlet" with "Death of A Salesman" called "Haplet," acting side by side with Kelsey Grammer in "Frasier," "The Thomas Crowne Affair," and more!
