The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything, Adjusted for Inflation

Over the years, Star Trek has had an interesting relationship with the number 47. Popping up on computer monitors, in dialogue, and in subtle and overt ways, this number has become ubiquitous in the Star Trek universe. But how did that come to be? In this episode of Positively Trek, hosts Bruce and Dan are joined by special guest Larry Nemecek, “Dr. Trek” himself, to discuss the history of Star Trek’s relationship with the number 47. We talk about the origins of the “47 Conspiracy,” share some of our favorite instances of 47, and try to work it into as many puns and references as possible!   Larry Nemecek on Twitter: https://twitter.com/larrynemecek Website: https://larrynemecek.com/   Show page: http://positivelytrek.libsyn.com/ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/positively-trek/id1501468628 Twitter: http://twitter.com/positivelytrek Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PositivelyTrekAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
