In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Lineage, B’Elanna and Tom get the life-changing news that they’re going to be parents. But joy quickly gives way to fear as B’Elanna confronts the pain of her past: her father’s abandonment, her isolation, and the shame she felt about her Klingon heritage. Convinced she’s sparing her child from pain, she attempts to re-engineer her daughter’s DNA without telling Tom. But where’s the line between protecting your child and erasing who they are? Mission Log weighs the science, the choices, and the consequences in Lineage.

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.

• 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.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Shattered, time gets all wibbly-wobbly aboard Voyager. Sickbay’s in the past, the mess hall’s in the future, and Chakotay is the only one who knows what’s going on. Expect run-ins with old friends like Seska and new-old ones like adult Naomi Wildman. It's a grand tour of Voyager history; just avoid the temporal anomalies while Mission Log gets Shattered.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, Flesh and Blood, remember when Janeway handed over Starfleet holodeck tech to the Hirogen? Well, they ran with it, built a blood-soaked holosafari. Now their prey is sentient, self-aware, and hunting back. The Doctor is torn between creator and creation, and Voyager’s crew goes on the endangered species list. Mission Log enters “Flesh and Blood.”

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, Body and Soul, Seven of Nine is acting strangely. Turns out it’s not the cheesecake, it’s The Doctor hiding out from anti-hologram zealots by taking a tour of her body. While the crew scrambles to stay one step ahead of their captors, The Doctor explores the joys (and complications) of physical existence. Mission Log uploads Body and Soul.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, Inside Man, there’s a new Reg in town, and he’s smoother, sharper, and more confident than ever. Almost… too confident. When Voyager receives the helpful hologram from Lt. Barclay, things seem a little off. Could it be sabotage? And is Reg really trying to kill the crew, or just flirting badly with Seven? This week, Mission Log finds the Inside Man.
