#296 - 'Shore Leave' TOS S1E15

Some people get horny and some people get dead. Join two-thirds of your regular hosts and two amazing guest hosts as they compare how annoying Finnegan is relative to other annoying things, discuss the bizarre focus on absurd Irish stereotypes throughout the Star Trek franchise, and ponder the ethical ramifications of fornicating with an unlicensed simulacrum of your ex-partner.

Note that Dan is on his own shore leave this week, but thankfully Jesse and Patrick are joined by Izaak from Trek 365 and Jesse from Open Pike Night to help navigate this campy classic. Be sure to check out there podcasts wherever you regularly check out cool podcasts, or just follow the links below:

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!

Next week: We begin our weekly coverage of Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with "Hegemony, Part II" Finally!!

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.
