Incident of the Magic Elixir (podcast)

Real world article
(written from a production point of view)

Summary

Welcome to Gene-ology, where we explore the earliest TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek!
As we set course for the Wrangler off-ramp, we examine one last script – the one that was never even filmed, namely, Edward J. Lakso's "Incident of the Magic Elixir", which has some themes that fit nicely into a Gene Roddenberry creation... and plenty of themes that don't.
