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 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!

Darkling
When the Doctor toys with his personality subroutines, he adopts the strengths of great historical figures like Socrates, Lord Byron, and T'Pau. Unfortunately, their negative traits run amok too, taking the EMH down a very dark path. Darkling goes into the Mission Log. Sponsored by listeners like you -

Unity
Last week left us worried that the Borg were back. This week? Welcome back, Borg! This is a very different kind of collective; the kind that's really into community farming and, as Chakotay learns, serious intimacy. Mission Log explores Unity. Sponsored by - Sponsored by listeners like you -

Coda
The problem with Captain Janeway's near-death experience is that it keeps happening over and over. She's not having it though, and gives the prospect of death a stern talking-to when we put Coda in the Mission Log. Sponsored by - Sponsored by listeners like you -
Customer Reviews
Engage
I have listened to this podcast since the very first. I look forward to Thursday when it comes out . The guys have covered each successive iteration of Star Trek and every episode now midway through Voyager. I appreciate info on guest stars and the backstories. John and Ken are a good pairing, and complement each other. I’m thankful for the team and Roddenberry enterprises for bringing it to us weekly.
Too smug
I tried listening to their TOS discussions, and I did like the behind the scenes research and the humorous use of the text-to-speech voice between sections. But it did require putting up with the attitude of one of the hosts - the one with the higher, thinner, more nasally voice. He aims this smugness not only at Star Trek but also at the other host. When he talked in circles endlessly about religion during the discussions of Who Mourns... simply to hear the sound of his own voice, I realized I could not take anymore of his virtue signaling.
Calling it quits after hundreds of episodes
Changing my 5 Star to a 1 star as this show has completely forgotten its mission. I loved the tng and tos in depth discussions. Now the format is like every other tv review show out there. Mission log gave up on timelessness when norm flopped onto the show. Can he actually go a single episode without talking about Star Wars?
It’s now shallow careful discussions with grandstanding monologues. It’s a waste to listen to this show review voyager when Delta Flyers is doing a better job and has hosts Tom Paris and Harry Kim that are actually connected to the show.
It’s a sad goodbye to a podcast that I enjoyed many hours of but I’m just too disappointed in the shallow shift in content.
