A Captain's Log - Bobby Clark

(part one of two) Celebrating the 100th episode of their talk show series, Bryan Kreutz and Lili Fox-Lim, briefly reflect on their amazing trek and journey with Star Trek fans. Bobby Clark, known for his stunt work in westerns, particularly the TV series Gunsmoke and Rawhide, talks about his start into the performing industry stepping on a Pasadena California 1961 film production titled "A Fever in the Blood". Bobby Clark talks about serving in the U.S. Navy on the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier. Clark goes through the process on what led him to getting his SEG and SAG cards, plus how the Assistant Director on the TV series Rawhide would select him while waiting in casting lines at the studios. Clark speaks on working with director Joe Pevney which lead him to a fitting with a specific set of stories for working on the spectacular Star Trek original series episode "Arena" as the Gorn. Being a stuntman, he shares detailed moments of being on location in November 1967 at a warm Vazquez Rocks setting for "Arena" in California. Clark confirms Gary Combs was another Gorn stuntman with him there, in case. Bobby Clark also articulates that iconic green Gorn reptilian-like suit "was a diver's wet-suit".
