Captain Kirk is forced to get downright Gorny up in here. Join your cozy hosts as they discuss various and varied aspects of this classic episode of Star Trek, including production design, pronunciation choices, story structure, and what it was that Kirk and McCoy were alluding to with regard to Commodore Travers' style of hospitality. Also, we are joined by an extremely special guest which makes this a truly not-to-be-missed episode of It's Got Star Trek!

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!

Next week: We endure what we recall to be a middling but not completely unentertaining Season 2 episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, "Second Sight". It's got some good Jake and Benjamin stuff, doesn't it? And that whacky scientist? We'll see.

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.
