Star Trek Memories - 1993

"Boldly going where no audio has gone before, Star Trek Memories is William Shatner's own behind-the-scenes look at the legendary '60s television series that continues to spawn movies, books, and series spin-offs 26 years after the last episode aired. Avid Trekkers are sure to be delighted with this first-hand account from Captain Kirk himself". Link in comments.

What fun. This blog began in 2007 and I started posting earnestly in 2012. There are now more than 810 total posts. Almost all of these posts have downloadables and none of the links are broken, thanks to Google Drive which hosts all of my files for FREE! Everyone hates link rot. It encourages bloggers to quit, and encourages blog visitors to stop visiting. Yesterday I visited blogs FunkyFrolic, TheCrimeLounge, and ShatnersToupee and loved what I saw but it's all for nought.

My downloadables will be available until Google goes the way of Altavista. I recommend you use the JUMP THROUGH THIS BLOG links on my blog to help you find some goodies.

More Robert Evans - Kid Notorious


This show aired on CC here in America for 2 months in 2003, around the time the documentary on Evans was released, and he was at the height of his rebirth of fame. Didn't get renewed for a second run, but still funny as hell. Also included is an mp3 of Patton Oswalt's famous bit about Evans, which definitely contributed to his post-2000's fanbase.
