Archer teaches Trip the importance of full bellies and sweaty backs when navigating novel foreign policy scenarios. Join your mildly-aroused hosts as they discuss the seeds of the Prime Directive, the dicey nature of first contact with divided societies, and how far we've advanced over the past 18 years of Western society with regard to the consumption of testicles.

Next week: We join Captain Kirk and crew as they fight off being used as breeding stock for a zippy race of accelerated aliens in 'Wink of an Eye' - the 11th episode of Star Trek: The Original Series' third season.

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.
