It's our monthly trip through Star Trek lore as we hop back into The Nexus!
First up on TOS, it's another "What if Earth actually became an X-type planet?" episode with "Bread and Circuses"! Originally airing March 15, 1968, this episode features another Starfleet washout breaking bad (who Kirk is of course friends with), a televised gladiator fight to the death complete with a fake studio audience, and Uhura finally getting to outsmart Kirk and Spock!
Then over on TNG, it's a Geordi and Worf-centric episode with, "The Enemy"! First airing back on November 4, 1989, this episode has Geordi falling in a hole, Wesley annoyingly figuring out how to save the day with a probe, and Worf not giving a flying shit if this Romulan dies on the table!
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!
