#272 - 'Conspiracy' TNG S1E25

Horrifying creatures briefly take over Starfleet, but it turns out not to be a big deal in the end. Join your Jesse-less hosts as they discuss solid (if uncharacteristically creepy) storytelling, 1980s twists on 1960s production design, and the awkwardly steered balance between goofy and nightmarish in this infamous TNG classic.

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

Next week: We travel the stars in style with Benjamin and Jake Sisko in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's "Explorers"

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.
