S2E20 ~ Genesis II

This week on Post-Apocalyptia: We look at a lesser-known film by Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, 1973's Genesis II! We'll talk about suspended animation, mutants, and the third World War. We'll look at high tech subway lines, '70s sex appeal, and the ugly specter of slavery. And we'll ask ourselves: Just what's it take to get a show on the air, anyway? This and more, in Gene Roddenberry's Genesis II! Join us there, at the end of the world. Genesis II can be watched for free on the Roku Channel, or for rent or purchase on Amazon Prime Video and other services; it can also be purchased on DVD. Post-Apocalyptia can be found on most podcast apps, and on our website at https://www.postapocalyptia.com. We can also be found on social media on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Twitter/X, Bluesky, and Reddit. Have a story you'd like to see us feature? Or, want to join us as a guest?
