Original Airdates: July 12-14, 2019
TVC 456.1: Marc Cushman, author of These Are The Voyages: Star Trek The Original Series, helps Ed take a deep dive into the development of the first season of Star Trek and the early career of Gene Roddenberry, including how Perry Mason creator Erle Stanley Gardner mentored The Great Bird when he began his career in television. Other topics include the acrimonious relationship between Harlan Ellison and Roddenberry over the development of “City on the Edge of Forever.” Volume 1 of These Are The Voyages: Star Trek The Original Series was recently updated and expanded to include an additional eighty pages of information. Not only that, it is also available as an audiobook.
