"The Dorn Identity" with Michael Dorn (2x8)

Air date: Jan 22, 2023

Season 2, episode 8 is here. Dominic is back! He, Connor, and Erica talk with the legendary Michael Dorn, known for playing the original Prune Juice Warrior, WORF on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, TNG movies and more. In this conversation, we learn about Michael's childhood, his time in a rock band. Why and how he got into "the business", why he almost walked away from Star Trek and why he stayed. He flies jets (and normal planes), rides motorcycles, and is vegan. Why is he vegan? Prostates. Wash is quiet today. Erica gets some fan questions in, Connor, Dominic, and Michael play for Patreon Member Jill Sheets in this week’s Star Trek Trivia, and Michael plays “Stuck on a Deserted Island with Connor Trinneer.” It's another awesome deep dive episode! Today is a good day to chat.
