The Nexus #53 - "A Piece of the Action" / "Peak Performance" (Patreon)

On the first trip into the Nexus of 2021, the gang is chatting about two pretty good episodes of Trek, but only one with tons of hilarious gangster slang!

First on TOS, it's "A Piece of the Action," which first hit the air on January 12, 1968! This episode features the Enterprise crew interacting with a planet of 1920's gangsters, Kirk wearing a fuzzy hat, tons of people saying "heaters," and Spock going nerve pinch crazy!

Then on TNG it's time for war games in "Peak Performance," which was originally broadcast on July 8, 1989. This episode has Riker commanding a junked ship, Data whining about losing a bar game, Pulaski stirring shit up, and Picard reaching maximum fury with this rotten Zakdorn!

The Nexus is a We Hate Movies podcast where the guys futilely go through two Star Trek series at the same time. Thank you so much for continuing to support this weird thing known as WHM! We couldn't do it without you!
