The Nexus #51 - "The Gamesters of Triskelion" / "The Emissary" (Patreon)

On this month's super-sized trip into The Nexus, the guys are chatting about two Trek episodes that are neck-and-neck as to which is the superior television product!

First on TOS, it's the brain-tastic, battle-heavy episode, "The Gamesters of Triskelion." Originally airing January 5th, 1968, this episode features a character straight out of a Simpsons porno parody; Kirk, Uhura and Chekov being forced into combat; and three brain-shaped beings that are also degenerate gamblers!Then over on TNG, it's the Worf-tastic episode, "The Emissary"! Originally airing June 24th, 1989, this episode features the gang playing poker in the dark until Picard yells at them, cryogenically frozen Klingons that don't know the war is over, and, most importantly, Worf getting laid! PLUS: We want Worf! Make that goddamn show already! WHM is donating 100% of our 2020 merch income to causes  fighting for racial justice.

The Nexus is a We Hate Movies 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 known as WHM! We couldn't do it without you!
