In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, “Live Fast and Prosper,” a group of alien con artists impersonate the Voyager crew in order to get away with their latest scams. When their real counterparts catch up, maybe just being nice can save the day. Or maybe it will take a more elaborate con to beat them at their own game. Mission Log learns to "Live Fast and Prosper."
Hosted by John Champion and Norman Lao
Welcome to Mission Log, a Roddenberry Entertainment podcast, where we explore the Star Trek universe one episode at a time. Each week, Mission Log examines a single episode of Star Trek, diving into its ethical subtext, metaphors, and cultural significance. From the show’s most iconic moments to its hidden gems, we analyze what makes Star Trek one of the greatest science fiction sagas of all time.
In every episode of Mission Log we…
- Recap the story and analyze key moments.
- Discuss the morals, messages, and meanings of the dilemmas presented.
- Debate whether the episode holds up and if the themes are still relevant.
