PodcastOne has acquired the exclusive sales and distribution rights to "Dropping Names...and Other Things with Brent & Jonny," the entertainment podcast hosted by actors Brent Spiner and Jonathan Frakes.

The "Star Trek: The Next Generation" veterans and longtime friends use the podcast to share stories and conversations with notable figures they have encountered during their decades in the entertainment industry. The show blends Hollywood stories, humor and interviews spanning television, film and science fiction.

Guests to date have included Seth MacFarlane, Nathan Fillion, LeVar Burton, Alan Tudyk, Ron Perlman, Joel McHale, Felicia Day, Jane Leeves, Michael Dorn and Tom Bergeron.

"Brent and Jonny are beloved television stars who happen to also be magnetic podcast hosts," said PodcastOne President and co-founder Kit Gray. "Through their show and in each episode they guide dynamic, engaged and hilarious conversation connecting us with their guests like never before."

Gray said the format gives audiences the feeling of being guests at an exclusive gathering while also creating opportunities for advertisers to engage with the show's listeners.

Spiner portrayed Lt. Commander Data on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," while Frakes played Commander William Riker. Both have remained closely associated with the franchise through subsequent "Star Trek" films and television projects.

The addition expands PodcastOne's entertainment lineup, which also includes "The Adam Carolla Show," "The Jordan Harbinger Show," "Karma and Chaos," "Stassi with Tay," "Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe," "LadyGang," "Court Junkie," "Pop Apologists" and "Varnamtown."

"Dropping Names...and Other Things with Brent & Jonny" is available across major podcast platforms.
