#347 – “The Alternative Factor” TOS S1E27

Kirk and Spock just can’t figure out what’s even going on! Join your psychidelic self-hating hosts as they discuss weird beards, confusing plots, strange absences, odd-acting regulars, beefy-looking extras, and how all of that still seems to add up to an entertaining, if perhaps exasperating episode of Star Trek. Also, tons of voicemails and emails, Jesse apologizes for helping out, Patrick gets periodically perplexed, and Dan again clarifies the terms of the great meatloaf/hamburger debate. Strap in and buckle up!OR something to that effect – some turn of phrase that will engage your mind such that you want to listen.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: The Original Series, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Here is a link to the video longtime listener Emanuel has been crafting over the last three years:

Let’s give it lots of views so keep Emanuel engaged in this important piece of wondrous art.

Next week: We will discuss Kirk’s antics on Star Trek: The Next Generation’s “Family”

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.

#346 – “Fusion” Enterprise S1E17

Some whacky Vulcans show up and cause a ruckus. Join your emotional hosts as they (eventually) discuss rapey Vulcans and a lot of other nonsense that is informative and entertaining but not always on topic. This episode meets all the legal and regulatory definitions for a podcast, so you don’t bother complaining to your local podcast authority about any potential or perceived deficiencies. Good day!

#345 – “Alliances” Voyager S2E14

Janeway makes various choices and Neelix is useful(ish). Join your allied hosts as they discuss how this episode more closely matches the original narrative conceit of the show as compared to most of the series. The hosts also discuss a gross story about Elvis Presley. Come to think of it, Chakotay is even praised! This is an oddball episode of IGST, you shall surely not desire to miss it good people of the audioscape! It’s late and coming up with these blurbs is tricky.

#344 – “Fascination” DS9 S3E10

A visit from Lwaxana Troi upends everyone’s plans. Join your infatuated hosts as they discuss this middling but fun episode of DS9 – that is, we eventually get to discussing it after discussing some other things. But those other things will be of keen interest to you, our lovely listeners. This is an odd episode of the podcast, but an extremely enjoyable one – don’t miss out!

Trek n’ Booze

Dan is on vacation so Jesse and Patrick decided to do a bonus episode. We somehow landed on the topic of alcohol as represented in Star Trek. We then decided, thoughtfully, that this was a good excuse to drink to some small degree of excess while recording this discussion. This is the resulting podcast episode.

Next week: Dan will rejoin Jesse and Patrick to discuss Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s “Fascination”

#343 – “The Schizoid Man” TNG S2E06

A smart fellow learns a hard lesson after dying for a bit. Join your observant hosts as they discuss an episode that somehow remains engaging despite being rather obtusely constructed. We’ll make all sorts of clever points and this and that, and some other things might be discussed or stated. Regular type stuff is the main thing to expect – good, old-fashioned, regular stuff.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: Jesse and Patrick will provide some sort of fun entertainment while Dan is on vacation, and then the week after we’ll discuss Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s “Fascination”
