And the Children Shall Lead (Star Trek TOS, part 2)

March 2, 2013 at 12:45pm • 1 hour 11 minutes • Wiki Entry • After Dark

Disconnect the intelligent computer that runs your entire planetary society, because it's time for the second half of our discussion of the original "Star Trek." What do today's kids think of this nearly 50-year-old show? We ponder the gender politics of splitting Captain Kirk (and a little dog in a weird costume) into good and evil halves. And what about the low standards of the Enterprise's Engineering department? Please listen: It will only take 71 of your Earth minutes! (Part 2 of 2.)

Special guests Scott McNulty & Steve Lutz.
