For 60 years now the starship Enterprise and all of its enduring characters have been wandering the galaxy in search of new life and new civilizations. John Siuntres has been on that trek since the very beginning. We talk about the enduring popularity of the Star Trek franchise and why John has been hooked ever since Neal Armstrong and his crew landed on the moon. John is a podcast pioneer who is the host of Word Balloon, a long running pop culture podcast where he has done more than 1000 interviews with top creators in comics, TV and film. John had a podcast before anyone knew what a podcast was. We discuss the tv shows, the movies and why Star Trek and sci-fi in general remains relevant.
