John Champion and MissionLogPodcast.com, Part 1-The Journey Begins

Welcome to the Greetings and Felicitations, a podcast where I explore topics which might not seem to be directly related to compliance but clearly influence our profession. In this episode, I begin a two-part series with John Champion, one of the founders of MissionLogPodcast.com. John’s original mission was to do a podcast on every episode of Star Trek, beginning with TOS, TAS, the movies, TNG, DS9, Voyager and beyond. It began as a 14-year odyssey and has only grown in length. In this Part 1, we take up the founding of  MissionLogPodcast.com and John’s work with his original co-host Ken Ray to explore the morals, messages and meanings of Star Trek up to TNG. Highlights include:

1. The vision of Rod Roddenberry and Roddenberry Entertainment for Mission Log, a Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast.
2. Start of the podcast and working through TOS.
3. Some of the hidden gems in TAS.
4. The movies.
5. The work of Dorothy (DC) Fontana
6. The David Gerrold interview.
