The Treksperts welcome former Paramount Pictures production executive, Thomas Parry, who was instrumental in the development of Star Trek to the big screen as part of the management team under Michael Eisner during the studio's golden years overseeing such classic films as Heaven can wait, Foul Play, Grease and Saturday Nigth Fever. We continue our celebration of the 40th anniversary of Star Trek: The Motion Picture (and begin and end our celebration of the 39th anniversary of Airplane!) in one of our most fascinating and surprising episodes as Tom shares incredible never-before-heard stories from the Trek trenches as they rushed to get Star Trek to the big screen on December 7, 1979. Also onboard is screenwriter Ashley E. Miller (writer; Thor, X-Men: First Class) in an episode you don't want to miss.
