We have Phil who is the newest fan to the franchise, his knowledge is limited (currently)...but he is learning quickly!
Phil is the newest fan as he has only really became a fan through the Abramsverse, so he has been a fan for about 5 years since the Star Trek 2009 film, he is currently watching his way through the early season's of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Although he has levelled up a character in Star Trek Online.
Jamie has been a fan for around 8 years, and is quite knowledgeable about the franchise. He has the un usual talent of being able to telling you what episode number and season a episode is from just from memory!
Then there's me (Simon), I have watched Star Trek for the majority of my life (more than 15 years), so I have amassed a wide and varied knowledge of the franchise as a whole. I know more random bits of trivia than is humanly possible! Which I am more than pleased to share with my fellow Trekkers and Trekkies.
My Science Fiction background
My Podcast Listening background
I have also managed to get three questions published into the 'A fistful of data' section of the Star Trek Magazine. That section of the magazine is answered by none other than 'Doctor Trek' himself Larry Nemecek!
Star Trek Magazine issues: DSTL 2012 special no.42, DST3 special no.178 and issue no.180
To keep up with the latest Star Trek news I check The Trek Collective, Trek Core and Trek Movie on a daily basis!
If you went to DST3 you will definitely recognise his face, as he was responsible for presenting and hosting the talks at the event...including the Costume Parade's and our Borg Fan Panel!
Neil has amassed an amazing amount of knowledge of Star Trek from his years of watching the shows and movies! Which is understandably why he has been given the title of Super Fan by the organisers of DST3!
He also has a shedload of antidotes from his time attending conventions, which he is quite willing to share! We are hoping to get Neil on as many episodes as possible, so make sure you stay tuned to The Engage Podcast!!!
