Summary

On this special Supplemental edition of Mission Log, we turn our focus to host Norman Lao. In recent weeks, we've added guest hosts for the first time ever, and it's time to share, in Norm's own words, the recent medical concerns that have changed how we produce this podcast along with others at Roddenberry. We hope you are engaged as well as entertained by the discussion of his personal and philosophical journey and tying it all back to Star Trek.
