2 Drunk 2 Trek

Carrie and Sarah recorded this on 11/6/2020, and they didn't know what they would wake up to today, but they felt like they just needed to say something about this week. After days of uncertainty and stress they decided to bring you a very special election episode just to state that even when we aren't certain, we can still live our lives with compassion and hope for the future, like Genesus Christenberry would have wanted. P.S. Congratulations to President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris on making history.

Okay okay okay, here's the thing, we talk a lot when we don't like things I guess? I know it's long, you could probably skip this one, Sarah does some Shakespeare flexes but you'll see she hasn't worked out those muscles in awhile, and Carrie... puts up with her. It's all very on brand.

And now for the thrilling conclusion to possibly the most meta episode of TOS we've seen yet! Spoilers, but man, we did not see that one coming!

Oh my god, this episode is actually pretty good. Carrie and Sarah are on the edge of their seats. P.S. It's not entirely free of problematic themes though. So... buckle up for a few head desk moments, but what's 1966 without at least one thing that makes you go "Seriously?!"

Jesus Christ this episode is boring.

This week is a very special episode of 2 Drunk 2 Trek in that there are 3 of us! We have a special guest of Docking Bay 93 fame, Dan Macken. He is the owner of Mount Vernon Washington's best comic shop Docking Bay 93 and he really helps make this episode not as dumb as it could have been. Give it a listen and go buy things from him! Also, of note, while still creepy at points, this episode doesn't require a trigger warning.

In this week's episode, Carrie and Sarah try to talk a band they know into writing them a song out of some amazing post apocalyptic phrases, and would love to say this episode doesn't need a trigger warning but... that wouldn't be very 1966 of it now would it? So, trigger warning for grooming and some childhood trauma. This wasn't a smooth ride.

Carrie and Sarah break down an episode that has robots, trigger warnings, crystalline dicks, but you know what it doesn't have? Any little girls. So... that's a thing. 

If you're wondering how the stupidest episode thus far somehow became our longest episode thus far, well, wonder no further! It's because it's so stupid we had to say "It was so stupid" for an hour and 45 minutes. Also, there were pretty dresses and we're only human, so we had to describe those in detail.

Carrie and Sarah deep dive into some uncomfortable topics when Kirk gets split into two versions of himself, but don't worry, there's trigger warnings *and* a unicorn lion dog alien with antennae. Seriously though, it was a dog.
