Our two guests for the next Slice of SciFi show will be cartoonist/illustrator David Reddick and producer Trevor Roth.
Trevor makes a return visit to Slice of SciFi, having visited with us back in February. He is producer, friend and business partner with Eugene “Rod” Roddenberry and one of the driving forces behind Roddenberry Productions. He will bring us up-to-date about all the new things happening at Roddenberry Productions, which is an extension of what Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry began over 40 years ago.
David Reddick, most known for his “The Trek Life” cartoons when the official Star Trek website StarTrek.com was alive and well, has joined the team at Roddenberry Productions and is Roddenberry.com’s main site illustrator. He is an award winning cartoonist who worked many years as the newsroom artist for Indiana’s The Herald Bulletin. His cartoons have been syndicated nationally by the Scripps Howard News Service, CNHI News Service, American Publishing’s National News Syndicate and worldwide by Artizans Syndicate. David currently runs two new weekly webcomics for the official Roddenberry.com called “Gene’s Journal”, about a young Gene Roddenberry, his adventures as a kid, and the journal he kept it all written in…. and “Rod & Barry,” about two aliens sent to earth by their homeworld to scout it our for anihilation, and while monitoring earth’s communications (i.e., TV) they become hooked on Science Fiction Television, and continually stave off earth’s destruction while they catch up on their favorite episodes, all the while commenting on current sci-fi trends and shows.
We will have lots of news, movie & TV talk as well as special segments and take a glimpse into the future, so join us this Saturday, June 14 from your favorite podcatcher or on XM-Satellite Radio’s Sonic Theater on Monday, June 23rd for this great program with Trevor Roth and David Reddick.
