#217 - 'Bem' & 'The Practical Joker' TAS S2E02 & 03

Kirk and crew have their hands full dealing with a couple of jokers. Join your confused hosts as they discuss nonsensical plots, terminally-American Romulans, and just what sort of drugs the writers and producers of Star Trek: The Animated Series were on as this series drew to a close. Also some further discussion about Sally Struthers.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of these episodes of Star Trek: The Animated Series, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

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.
