Hey there, Improvised Star Trek listeners, it's Chris Rathgen, and today we have part two of the behind-the-scenes discussion that the cast of Improvised Star Trek had, following the recording of our last episode on August 18th, 2019.

November 22nd, at the Cards Against Humanity Theatre in Chicago.

After that episode, we'll just be hanging out and more than happy to talk about the show

Tickets are free, but there is a link to RSVP in the episode notes. And if you are unable to

up in your podcast feed or your preferred listing device the following day on November 23rd.
