On ‘The Event Horizon’: Star Trek’s Rod Roddenberry

Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek, was born August 19, 1921. This August 19 (tomorrow) would have been his 100th birthday. To celebrate, we have a very special guest joining us for this week’s episode of The Event Horizon here on SCIFI.radio. It’s none other than Rod Roddenberry, the son of Gene Roddenberry.

Eugene Wesley “Rod” Roddenberry Jr. (born February 5, 1974) is an American television producer and the chief executive officer of Roddenberry Entertainment. He is the son of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry and Majel Barrett, and is an executive producer on Star Trek: Discovery, Star Trek: Picard and Star Trek: Lower Decks, and on the upcoming Star Trek: Prodigy (in production) and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.

We’ll be talking about all these things and more.

Join us Saturday at 4 pm PT / 7 pm ET to hear the show. It airs again Sunday, August 22 at the same time, then repeats on the following Thursday and Saturday mornings at 4 am PT / 7 am ET.
