David Livingston – Directing ‘Star Trek: Voyager’ And Beyond

Anthony and Laurie skip the news this week, except to point to some Halloween-themed content on TrekMovie.com along with our #TrekStarHalloween costume contest on Instagram, with prizes from Doug Drexler’s personal collection. The main part of the podcast is Laurie’s recent interview with Star Trek’s most prolific director, David Livingston, to celebrate Star Trek: Voyager‘s 30th anniversary and raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. Laurie and David dug into specific choices in episodes of Voyager, working with guest stars like Scarlett Pomers and Sarah Silverman, David’s joy whenever he’s asked to talk Trek, and just how much involvement a Star Trek director had back in the Berman era. They wrap up talking about the microgrants created to honor the legacy of SyFy Sista Subrina Wood.
