Mission Log is a Roddenberry Entertainment podcast with the sole purpose of exploring the Star Trek universe one episode at a time. That’s right, this podcast will cover six different series and 30 seasons of television by journeying into every one of the 726 episodes with a single mission: to explore, debate and discuss one of the largest science fiction phenomena of all time, Star Trek.

Starting with The Original Series’ initial pilot and continuing chronologically until we reach the last episode of Star Trek: Enterprise, each week our hosts, Ken Ray and John Champion, will tackle a single episode, delving into the most historical and hysterical science fiction that Star Trek has to offer. Along with a variety of guests and interviews, Mission Log will attempt to reach Star Trek’s ethical subtext, understand it’s complex metaphors and finally figure out what was the trouble with those tribbles.

Explore strange new details. Seek out new perspectives; deeper understandings. Boldly go where so many of us love to go, again and again. Join us for Mission Log!

Funny, informative, intelligent

John and Ken present each episode in a way that I find thought-provoking and enjoyable. It's given me the excuse to rewatch the episodes and either deepen my appreciation of them or enjoy the feeling of never having to see them again! I like the fact that they come at the discussion with different points of view and different backgrounds, and don't always agree.

Amazing!

This has been not only my favorite Star Trek podcast, but my favorite podcast in general for years now.

The best Trek podcast of all time

Star Trek at its best is a show that deals with serious themes but never takes itself too seriously and Ken and John embody this spirit of Star Trek. Their reviews give the appropriate amount of gravitas to the serious themes the episodes deal with, but they always balance it out with a sense of humor that always makes for an enjoyable listen. You might not always agree with their observations but for the most part they present their opinions with a light touch that invites the listener to reflect on the episodes in a deeper way. The result is a piece of work that makes the whole experience of being a fan all the more rewarding. Other fan commentary, from TV shows, movies, music and sports, could learn something from how Ken and John approach their work.
