Space, the final frontier...

These words started our lifelong love of Star Trek. In this episode, we talk about our first stage of that love affair, the original series (TOS).

The optimism about the future! The exploration of the unknown! The big ideas! The thinly-veiled social commentary! The original crew! The TOS best episodes! The TOS worst episodes! William Shatner at a jeans store opening! It's all here.

Star Trek was pivotal in our young geek lives, and foundational for geek culture. This is an important episode that you don't want to miss!
