This episode, join your Planet 8 crew, as well as our guest Lord Blood-Rah, as we journey to the final frontier, to explore the first season of Star Trek. We each select two episodes to discuss. Considering what a phenomenal season that first season was, picking just two is not easy! But the eight we've chosen are a solid representation of Trek at its finest. That first year gave us all the themes that would become associated with Trek - the need for communication and understanding, choosing peace over war, and values like loyalty, friendship, and compassion. It seems like these episodes only get better as time goes by - or perhaps we just grow fonder of them.

For our Sensor Sweep, Lord Blood-Rah shares his latest news. You can find Lord Blood-Rah's Nerve Wrackin' Theatre, Captain Paxar's Star Cadet Hour, and so much more,  at lordbloodrah.com !

We had a lot of fun talking Trek! But we know that we will have left out some folks' favorite episodes. Go ahead, send us your favorite first season Star Trek episodes! Here's where you can find us:
