The Nexus #57 - "Return to Tomorrow" / "The Ensigns of Command" (Patreon)

On this month's trip into The Nexus, the gang is tangling with a younger Dr. Pulaski and getting a strong talking-to from a frustrated Data! 

First up on TOS, it's "Return to Tomorrow." Originally airing February 9, 1968, this episode has Kirk & Co. conversating with some huge fish bowls; more hyper-intelligent god beings who are being total assholes; Nimoy getting to do some emotional, non-Spock acting; and a whole lotta body swapping! 

Then on TNG, it's "The Ensigns of Command." First broadcast back on September 30, 1989, this ep has Data forcing his co-workers to attend another Ten Forward performance, Picard trying to negotiate with some frustratingly litigious aliens, Data trying to convince a whole colony that they're about to be wiped out by these powerful Gleep Glops, and an alien race that just looks like a guy with a cheap blanket draped over his head! 

The Nexus is a WHM 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 we do—we couldn't do it without you!
