#25 – ‘A Piece of the Action’ TOS S2E17

Need a concrete example for why the prime directive is so important? Alternatively, looking for any sort of contrivance to watch Captain Kirk and Commander Spock dress up as sexy gangsters? Whichever is your pleasure you will get served nicely in ‘A Piece of the Action,’ episode 17 of the original Star Trek’s second season. Join your fawning fedora fan hosts as they debate the morality of interstellar interference, the difference between art and dogma, and the sheer joy of William Shatner’s acting in this episode.

Next week: We investigate the time-cycling shenanigans of one Harcourt Fenton Mudd in ‘Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad’ – the seventh episode of Star Trek: Discovery’s first season.

#23 – ‘Things Past’ DS9 S5E08

Constable Odo reluctantly confronts his past while trying desperately to keep his nosy friends out of it. Join your masked and disinfected hosts as they discuss the uniquely intense style of Changeling psychotherapy, the brilliant subtly of Kurtwood Smith’s acting, and Quark’s mastery of casual condescension on this, the 23rd episode of It’s Got Star Trek!

Next week: We travel back to pre-Federation times to witness Jonathan Archer’s curious encounter on a ‘Rogue Planet’ – the 18th episode of Star Trek: Enterprise’s first season.

#22 – ‘Year of Hell (Parts 1 & 2)’ Voyager S4E08 & 09

Have you ever been in a situation where you wish the year you were enduring would simply reset and allow you to start over while avoiding all the horribleness? Well then this episode is for you! Join your reality-fatigued hosts as they discuss Voyager’s fourth season two-parter, ‘Year of Hell.’ Is it genocide if the people never existed? Is manipulating the timeline any different than contemporary mechanisms of influence, such as war-making or the aggressive application of political and economic power? We unfortunately failed to discuss the most important question of all: is Annorax partial to anoraks? Regardless, we cover a lot of ground in this one!

Next week: We investigate Odo’s past (and enjoy another appearance by the great Kurtwood Smith) in Deep Space Nine’s fifth season episode, ‘Things Past’ – prepare to trek back in time to Terok Nor!

Our old buddy Data has gone an caught a bad case of amneezy, landing himself and a bunch of medieval villagers in a boatload of trouble!
