Gene-ology 65 - A Crisis Named Wavelin

Welcome to Gene-ology, where we explore the earliest TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek!

Was this the final aired episode of Wrangler, or was "A Crisis Named Wavelin" left on the cutting room floor?  Which would have been better?  Gene-ology examines Gene Roddenberry's final Wrangler script, which has a troubling tendency to use some disturbingly heavy themes as a source of...humor?

Join us as we dig into the Roddenberry archives and discuss how Gene’s early writing shaped the groundbreaking worlds he would later bring to our screens.

Hosted by Earl Green and Ashley Thomas

Guest starring Cody Banning as Pitcairn, Kendra Bolen as Wavelin, Daniel Hackman as Paulo, and Shane Sexton as Ghourbaht
