Bionic Buzz® got to interview Rod Roddenberry the CEO of Roddenberry Entertainment. We talked about Rod about celebrating his father’s centennial year and his Roddenberry Dive Team.
Rod has devoted his life to carrying on his father’s legacy, and his radical vision of a diverse and inclusive world – which Gene depicted through the philosophy he imbued in Star Trek, including a cast with a multi-ethnic crew and putting one of the first Inter-racial kisses on the TV screen.
Additionally, he previously narrated and executive produced the documentary TrekNation, where he explored the positive impact of his father’s iconic franchise has had on people’s lives.
