Mission Log: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast

Anything can happen in the Delta Quadrant - like a wormhole suddenly appearing that can transport Voyager back to Earth in mere minutes. Another thing that can happen is a giant telepathic space creature masquerading as said wormhole with the sole intent of eating Voyager for lunch. Bliss goes into the Mission Log.

On this special Supplemental edition of Mission Log, we turn our focus to host Norman Lao. In recent weeks, we've added guest hosts for the first time ever, and it's time to share, in Norm's own words, the recent medical concerns that have changed how we produce this podcast along with others at Roddenberry. We hope you are engaged as well as entertained by the discussion of his personal and philosophical journey and tying it all back to Star Trek.

A shuttle crash on a desert planet is bad enough. It's worse when time on that planet moves much faster than it does on Voyager and presents a real problem for rescuing the shuttle crew.

Voyager finds itself in the heart of Devore territory, and that means submitting every so often to annoying inspections. For what? Stowaway telepaths.

Or does she, as the old saying goes, keep her enemy even closer? Counterpoint goes into the Mission Log. Hosted by John Champion and Adam Pranica Sponsored by - get three months FREE!
