Listen

Description

I hope you all had a nice festive time! This episode should be airing on Boxing Day here in the UK, so enjoy your time off work and listen to a couple of chaps as the ‘gift’ each other a Star Trek episode. Will we be overjoyed with festive cheer, or will we hope desperately that the other person kept the receipt?

Also this one’s a bit low energy, as Charlie was thick with a cold and there was quite a bit of lag on the line, so to counter this, maybe have a Lucozade or run about a bit as you listen.

00:00 Opening
05:45 The Original Series - The Conscience of the King
37:39 Enterprise - Future Tense

There’s a little nosebleed chat around 1:05 for about a minute if anyone’s got issues with that and wants to skip forwards. Also a little throw up chat around 1:06… so maybe just skip to 1:06:50

Talking points include: Elric, Garth Marenghi, Macbeth Macbeth (like Mario Mario?), various calculations about Kirk’s age, The Wire, Glass Onion, Lost, Tyler Dayspring, Avengers Vs X-Men, Battlestar Galactica (TV show & board game), Avengers (UK), Charles’ terrible TaTu anecdote, Quatermass and the Pit, Red Dwarf, House of Leaves, roadkill laws, battles in Babylon 5, Charlie gets on his art wanker story game RPG high horse again, Starship Eternia, The Super Mario Bros Movie. Oh, and occasionally Star Trek.
