Click to play – Right click to download

Gerri and Eugenia talk about robots, mechanoids, androids and the odd dalek or two. They look at the history of the machine man/woman from the first one to be seen in Sci Fi feature films, who of course as we all know is Maria in the newly released and remastered, Metropolis from http://www.madman.com.au. So why are they so interested in the manmade machine in the human form? It is because they have an interview with one of the genres most loved character actors, the engaging and fascinating Brent Spiner the man who made us all want to be a machine! Brent Spiner played the android Data in Star Trek Next Generation and Star Trek movies. He has also been in Threshold, Independence Day, Star Trek Enterprise and is now writing and performing his own webseries called Fresh Hell. Gerri and Eugenia’s thanks go to Scott and Diana Liston from First Contact Conventions http://www.firstcontactconventions.com.au
