Fashioned in resort wear to match that of Jean-Luc Picard and Vash from the first famous planet Risa episode, Lili and Bryan advise Rogg he should submit a story to Neo-opsis science fiction magazine. Lili offers to help Rogg write his story. The series very first guest interview with six time Aurora award winning writer Karl Johanson reveals his writing team that helped build the award winning Sci-Fi Magazines "Under the Ozone Hole" (Fanzine) and "Neo-Opsis" (Professional) science fiction magazine. Karl goes on to state Neo-Opsis Magazine has had 6,400 stories submitted to the magazine from around the world. In the interview as Bryan talks of Star Trek and Karl's fan connection to the beloved franchise, Karl articulates Star Trek's great strength of addressing complex topics in a thought provoking way, while not always giving us the best answer or pretending to. Lili get's a belly laugh out of Karl's sharing of his blow-up Captain Kirk chair in the ocean.
