Gene-ology 77 - Madam Faro

Welcome to Gene-ology, a podcast by Roddenberry Entertainment that dives deep into the early TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry.

Someone new has ridden into town to hold court at the card tables at Big Ed's and get between plenty of fools and their money.  She might get between Jefferson Drum and his heart.  Another of Gene's Jefferson Drum scripts from 1958 turns out to be surprisingly ahead of its time.

Hosted by Earl Green & Ashley Thomas
