Leonard Nimoy's death, ten years later, and the cultural impact of Spock, six decades later.
On February 27, 2015, the Star Trek family suffered a big blow when the original Spock actor, Leonard Nimoy, passed away at the age of 83, from COPD. His career was nearly 65 years, from not only as his role as Spock, but to other aspects of acting and hosting as well as other media. In this episode of Twin Cities Trekkies, which marks the tenth anniversary of Nimoy's passing, Wes is joined by fellow Star Trek fan Rob and two of them discuss Nimoy, and Spock.
Please excuse Rod's excessive volume.
