    Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Today, we continue our mission to explore Star Trek: the Motion picture. It's a film that we've spoken a lot about in other episodes so we thought we'd go where no/lots of podcasters have been before. Today we delve into episodes from the OG Star Trek series.


    WARNING! The S**t-bomb is said but nothing more.

    Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Today, we begin our mission to explore Star Trek: the Motion picture. It's a film that we've spoken a lot about in other episodes so we thought we'd go where no/lots of podcasters have been before. To kick things off we take a look at Star Trek's creator, Gene Roddenberry. Brace yourself because there's so weird old stuff in here.
