Podcasting: The final frontier. These are the logs of the Starfleet Leadership Academy. Its ongoing mission: To explore episodes of Star Trek for lessons on how to lead. To seek out real life and actual situations where those lessons can apply. To help leaders boldly go where no one has gone before - a better future - so that they can help us all get there too.

Captain Jeff Akin returns to Podcast Bay to discuss how his main podcast project allows him to promote his business in leadership training and indulge his love of Star Trek. Join Captain Rob as he chats with Jeff about how pro wrestling informed Jeff’s show format, how making the show has made Jeff a better writer, the naming of his Patreon community and why The Orville is more than just a Star Trek parody.
