Fellowship Podcast : To Which I Add "God Help Us"

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion on the history of Desilu Productions (created 70 years ago). They did a lot of groundbreaking stuff back in the day, and, surprisingly in that time period, was run by a woman for a lot of its existence. We talk about how it began, some of the things they did differently, some of the things they pioneered, some of the shows they made, and a bunch of other stuff. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.

Announcements:

So many of the important TV shows from the 50s and 60s came through Desilu. That's kind of amazing by itself 🙂

Also, I double checked and yes, the Desilu logo is on the Star Trek Blu-rays.
