Trek Geeks #138: Balance of Terror

AN ALL-TIME CLASSIC

This week, we take a look at one of the best episodes of Star Trek. Seriously, this is one you show someone who has never seen Star Trek before–it’s that good. It’s one we’ve wanted to talk about for a while and the time has finally come!

That episode is “Balance of Terror,” from season one of The Original Series. We’ll examine why this episode is so memorable–and how it made an impression on us at a young age.

Plus, lots of news including brand new Star Trek swag, news of a brand new Discovery comic from IDW, a special milestone for the Trek Geeks Podcast, and we’ll announce the winners of two copies of Drastic Measures, signed by author Dayton Ward himself!

It’s all in Episode 138 of Your Independent Star Trek Podcast, so beam aboard, Podfleet!
