Everyone welcome! Welcome to A Star to Steer Her By's 200th Episode spectacular! We've come a long way and we're honestly more than a little amazed to be here! Thank you to all who've joined us! For our big 200 we are eschewing the usual procedure and calling on some former guests to join us for a few rounds of "Trek" trivia before making them have some fun with Shakespeare! It's a bit of a long one, but I promise it is a grand old time from start to finish! So get a warm drink (or cold if you're listening to this in the future and it's Summer), settle in, and join us for some good fun! [Note: spoilers for Discovery S.3 somewhere around the last ten minutes of the episode or so] See all our ideal bridge crews here: https://www.tumblr.com/sshbpodcast/638580063140560896/ideal-bridge-crews Sounds effects from freesound.org: Phone ring: https://freesound.org/people/HerbertBoland/sounds/29952/ Game show buzzer: Buzzer: https://freesound.org/people/JapanYoshiTheGamer/sounds/423219/ New music, like our opening and closing themes, from the Air Force Band's public-domain recording of Debussy's "La Mer" found at musopen.org: https://musopen.org/music/14381-la-mer/ LLAP
