About this listen

 The 7th Rule began when Aron Eisenberg & Cirroc Lofton (Nog & Jake Sisko from Star Trek Deep Space Nine) reunited and teamed up with host Ryan T. Husk in January of 2019 to rewatch and discuss the show we all know and love.

Years later, and after the tragic passing of our brother, Aron Eisenberg, we have continued on, in his name, with in-depth discussions, joined by creators, directors, writers, actors, and Aron's widow, Malissa Longo.

A brilliant premise devised and a journey begun by the late great Aron Eisenberg, this podcast and mission has been taken up by Ryan T. Husk and Cirroc Lofton. Rewatching and reviewing each episode, discussing the developing story and artistic choices as well as sharing Cirroc's personal memories from the recording make this a fascinating window into Trek history. The interviews with actors and creative staff are brilliant and the FREE FOR ALL segments offer a great outlet for fan voices to be included. This podcast has grown exponentially since it's first inception and has enthusiastic support of the Trek community. If you haven't stopped by for a listen, what are you waiting for!?? Keep your ears open!
