The Orb is a Trek.fm podcast dedicated entirely to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, hosted since 2013 by C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing. In January 2023, we begin a 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of DS9, one episode at a time, as we shift from our format of exploring the minutiae of the show to celebrating 30 years of the greatest chapter in the Star Trek franchise with an episode-by-episode examination.

The Orb 2: A Character to Be Reckoned With
Favorite Characters, Favorite Arcs.
No Star Trek series came close to the depth of character development that Deep Space Nine brought us over the course of seven seasons. Not only did the writers flesh out the main cast, they also developed more than 30 recurring characters who felt as much a part of the story as Sisko and his crew.
In this episode of The Orb, hosts Christopher Jones and Matthew Rushing take a closer look at the cast of DS9, examine their favorite characters, and consider who grew the most from “Emissary” to “What You Leave Behind.”
