The Enemy Within

003 - A Philosophical Disagreement

Welcome to Episode 3 of the To Baldly Go Podcast, in which I continue my mission to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations.  To Baldly Go where many have gone before…

I am starting at the beginning and watching through Star Trek in an attempt to understand why people love the show as much as they do, and just maybe come to like it myself.

In this week’s episode, I am joined by Abbie and Nate and we discuss:

  • Star Trek: The Original Series episodes – The Naked Time and The Evil Within

  • Ron Swanson was right – this is the wrong way to consume alcohol

  • 250 years in the future, people still don’t know how to properly use PPE

  • Spock is a weepy drunk

  • Abbie and Nate talk about anti-matter, which I know nothing about

  • Time travel

  • Abbie and Nate talk about Discovery and Strange New Worlds

  • Philosophical disagreements

  • I play the “my podcast” card to declare Nate is wrong

  • What it means to be human

  • I AM THE CAPTAIN!!!

  • I notice the recurring trend of random crewmembers nearly killing everyone

Until next time –

Never give up!  Never surrender!
