Mission Log: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast

Mission Log launches into Star Trek: Enterprise as Captain Jonathan Archer and his crew take humanity's first big steps into deep space. Their mission? Return an injured Klingon to his homeworld, avoid an interstellar incident, and try not to let the Vulcans spoil all the fun. But with mysterious aliens, a temporal cold war, and a crew that's still figuring out how to work together, the NX-01 has a few surprises waiting for it. John Champion and new co-host Holly Amos examine the risks of exploration, the challenges of overcoming prejudice, and the importance of knowing when to listen to advice and when to chart your own course. "Broken Bow" goes into the Mission Log!
Hosted by John Champion and Holly Amos

Can Holly Amos make it through an entire podcast without mentioning Star Trek? We're about to find out! In part two of our listener Q&A, we're getting to know Mission Log's new co-host beyond the final frontier. From baseball and boy bands to favorite books, travel adventures, and the unlikely combination of brie cheese and Nerds candy, no topic is off limits. Well, except one. And Holly almost makes it.
And the wait is nearly over! Mission Log returns to regular episode coverage on October 22 with Star Trek: Enterprise, starting with "Broken Bow." It's been a long road, but we're almost there!
Hosted by John Champion and Holly Amos
Welcome to Mission Log, a Roddenberry Entertainment podcast, where we explore the Star Trek universe one episode at a time. Each week, Mission Log examines a single episode of Star Trek, diving into its ethical subtext, metaphors, and cultural significance.

In every episode of Mission Log we…
Recap the story and analyze key moments.
Discuss the morals, messages, and meanings of the dilemmas presented.
Debate whether the episode holds up and if the themes are still relevant.

You asked, Holly answers! Before Mission Log sets a course for Star Trek: Enterprise, we put our new co-host through a listener-supplied Trek interrogation. Holly talks about growing up with Star Trek, the characters and episodes closest to her heart, her work as an archivist, and even makes a case for some of Trek's less-loved corners.
Plus, we look ahead to what Holly and John are most excited to explore when Mission Log tackles Enterprise. We'll be back with one more Q&A (this time, Anything But Star Trek) before Enterprise officially goes into the Mission Log in just a few weeks.

It's been a long road… and Mission Log is finally back with a long-overdue check-in. John, Norman, and Rod talk about where the show has been, what's ahead, and how the journey continues as we set a course for Star Trek: Enterprise. Along the way, they reflect on the evolution of the show, the state of Roddenberry Entertainment, and what it takes to keep a 2,000+ episode legacy going strong.
Oh, and before we're done, a new voice joins the conversation. Stay tuned.

Tim Russ joins Mission Log for a wide-ranging conversation about his life before, during, and after Star Trek: Voyager. From music to directing, from the discipline of Tuvok to the chaos of television production, Tim shares stories from a career that stretches far beyond the Delta Quadrant. Along the way, we dig into how characters are shaped, how stories are told, and why sometimes the most logical approach isn't enough.
 
Mission Log welcomes Tim Russ for a conversation that goes well beyond "fascinating."
