Star Trek Vets Brent Spiner And Jonathan Frakes Announce New Podcast Series – Watch Launch Trailer [UPDATED]

| January 3, 2026 | By: TrekMovie.com Staff 11 comments so far

Star Trek: The Next Generation (and Picard) co-stars Brent Spiner and Jonathan Frakes are reuniting for a new project, this time in the podcast frontier. Today, the actors who portrayed Data and Riker have announced the launch of Dropping Names with Brent and Jonny, a new podcast series they say isn’t about Star Trek… although they admit it will come up.

Dropping Names… and other things

According to the brand-new official website for Dropping Names, the premise of the new podcast is: “Every legend starts with a spark — a poster on a wall, a handshake after a show, a single sentence from someone you admire.” They will be doing celebrity interviews on the new pod, and theirs is far from the first, but Spiner and Frakes promise they are not going to focus on the celebrity culture of awards, box office, and red carpet drama. Instead, they want to see inside the world of “when celebrities were fans themselves,” telling personal stories of their own “career-changing encounters” and “goosebump stories.” Their hype for the new podcast: “It’s funny. It’s nostalgic. It’s human.”

In the launch video, they make it clear “this is not a Star Trek podcast,” but confess they’ve “surrendered to fate” that Star Trek will come up. Watch it:

UPDATE: First Guest

We now know who will be the first guest. Responding to TrekMovie’s post about the podcast on X, Brent and Jonathan’s TNG co-star LeVar Burton revealed he has the honor.

You can watch and subscribe to Dropping Names on YouTube @Dropping-Names. It will also be available on your favorite podcasting platform including Apple and Spotify. No launch date has been announced yet.

Frakes and Spiner join their TNG co-star Gates McFadden, who has her own podcast, InvestiGates. Strange New Worlds star Anson Mount co-hosts The Well, another non-Star Trek podcast.

Several franchise stars have been podcasting about Star Trek, including Enterprise‘s Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating (D-Con Chamber), Voyager’s Robert Duncan McNeill and Garrett Wang (Delta Flayers), and Deep Space Nine’s Cirroc Lofton (7th Rule). Original Series star Walter Koenig joined 7th Rule for a TOS rewatch, as did Next Generation’s Denise Crosby for reviews of TNG season 1. DS9’s Terry Farrell and Armin Shimerman are currently doing a DS9 rewatch with Delta Flyers.
