LOS ANGELES, CA – NacelleCast, Nacelle’s podcasting division, is excited to announce that season two of the critically acclaimed hit series, Gates McFadden InvestiGates: Who Do You Think You Are? will premiere on February 21, 2023.
The second installment of the popular interview-style podcast includes interviews with William Shatner, Kate Mulgrew, Anson Mount, Tawny Newsome, Jack Quaid, John Billingsley, and some surprise guests.
“Gates’ Trek-heavy guest list feels fresh and unique to listeners who aren’t fans of the long-running sci-fi franchise,” said Gizmodo.
“Joined by her old Star Trek friends and castmates, McFadden explores surprising details about their personal and professional backgrounds through a series of stimulating conversations,” said CBR.com.
“Gates McFadden’s podcast is a MUST LISTEN for Star Trek fans,” said Collider.
In season one, Gates Mcfadden took an in-depth dive into the close personal friendships with her Next Generation cast mates Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner, Wil Wheaton and friends from other Trek shows. These 15 intimate conversations are filled with stories of youth, family, and the cast’s intertwined experiences that can range from hilarious, to the harrowing.
“Just like the camping song I sang as a kid—Season Two is silver and gold—I’m making new friends, but honoring some longtime ones as well. Old friends from Voyager, Enterprise, and The Original Star Trek. And new friends from Discovery, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds,” said Gates McFadden.
“Working with Gates once was, and still is, as surreal as it gets. But twice? I feel like I’m in the Inner Light or something!! ” said Nacelle founder and CEO, Brian Volk-Weiss.
