Tim is taking a sabbatical and Kevin had such a great time talking to Mike Poteet about his piece from Trektember 2019 last week that this week Mike is coming back as a guest host to interview Kevin about his piece for Trektember 2019 about Terraforming in Star Trek II and III as well as TNG's "Home Soil."

"I don't want any more cracks about the Book!" So says Bela Okmyx in the Original Series episode, "A Piece of the Action," but Kevin and his guest Mike Poteet decide to ignore Okmyx and make all the cracks they want! Mike--a professional writer and ordained Presbyterian minister--beams in to talk about his piece for Reel World Theology's Trektember 2020 about sacred texts in "A Piece of the Action," "The Omega Glory," and "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky." Along the way, Kevin and Mike have a discussion about how we relate to the Bible and other sacred texts and how these episodes can be instructive in that process.

A Star Trek Conversation with Mike Poteet - Episode 372 On September 8, 1966, NBC aired the first episode of a new TV series about a starship on a five year mission of space exploration. That series was called, Star Trek. The first episode told of an endangered shape-shifting, salt-sucking alien posing as a human woman to lure prey to its lair. Over 50 years, nearly 1000 episodes, at least 8 spin-off series, and 13 movies later, we've yet to meet any shape shifting salt vampires in real life. We have however seen a surprising number of ideas and technologies that appeared on the shows over the years have come to pass in the real world. We wanted to talk about some of those things as well and social and theological implications of the show. Mike Poteet is a Presbyterian minister (PCUSA), currently serving the larger church as a curriculum writer. He, his wife, and their two children live near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I've invited him here today to talk about Star Trek. ----more--------more----Looking for some more music during your time at home?Also Find Rick Lee James Music on Bandcamp: www.RickLeeJames.Bandcamp.comor on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3abA3po ----more---- Become A Patron of this Podcast at the Rick Lee James PATREON PAGE: https://www.patreon.com/RickLeeJames ----more----As Always...Thank You For Listening To Voices In My Head About Your Host: Rick Lee JamesFor more information on Rick Lee James, visit www.rickleejames.com, or follow him on Twitter and Facebook.

In this episode (which will cool you off because it was recorded in the snow), Mike discusses the proud sci-fi and fantasy geekdom he's cultivating in his children, his surprise at becoming a parent (thanks Dan and Michelle for the inspiration!), the influence of Mr. Spock and Leonard Nimoy on his life, how his then-girlfriend and now-wife Karen helped him understand there isn't just one right choice, what he has in mind for the knights of King Arthur's court, and more.
