Gene-ology 88 - The Savages

Welcome to Gene-ology, a podcast by Roddenberry Entertainment that dives deep into the early TV writing works of Gene Roddenberry.

Gene Roddenberry wrote more episodes of Have Gun - Will Travel than the people who created the show, and his streak ends here, just weeks away from the end of the show. Paladin knows quite a bit about art, and he knows what he likes, but does he like settling an old grudge between "The Savages"?

Hosted by Earl Green & Ashley Thomas
