Captain Kirk gets tangled up in a somewhat ridiculous scenario. Join your android hosts as they discuss penis rocks, mechanical geishas, and the epistemological and existential implications of the transfer of human consciousness into a machine host. Did we mention penis rocks?
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!

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.
