Bride of Chaotica!

Star Trek is littered with episodes that revolve around the holodeck. But few holodeck programs have been as much pure fun as Tom Paris's Captain Proton. Having been introduced in Voyager's fifth-season premiere, "Night," The Adventures of Captain Proton gave birth to a black-and-white romp through the world of 1930s' sci-fi B-movies. In this episode of The Ready Room we're joined by Charlynn Schmiedt and Matthew Rushing to discuss the centerpiece of Voyager's Captain Proton series, "Bride of Chaotica." We also reveal a few things you may not have known about the holodeck.

In news we cover the TNG Blu-ray price drop, the winter 2012 issue of Star Trek Magazine, ThinkGeek's Trek Socks, the latest entries Hive and Ongoing comics from IDW, and we play with the new "Shatoetry" app. We also explore which series had the best overall music. You might even find a Star Wars reference of two.
