A Captain's Log (2021) : 5x1

Bryan and Lili interview their biggest and most popular guest ever, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine actress Nana Visitor. Visitor discusses her early family heritage and the Charisse vaudeville dancing, plus learning from her mother as a dancer to working on Broadway in New York. The discussion shifts to her being presented with the script for the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine pilot episode "Emissary" where she would take the character motivations for Major Kira Nerys. Nana discusses balancing time with her pregnancy, new-born son and long days on set for Deep Space Nine, plus still playing Kira being pregnant. Nana Visitors talks on a new book with assistance from Ben Robinson, including a chapter of the story where Terry Ferrell and Nana herself didn't really lean on each other during the production of DS9 but became close later. Many other stories, particularly from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine are shared.
