The Nexus #90 "The Cloud Minders" / "Legacy" (Patreon)

On this month's journey into the Nexus, we're chatting about two really solid episodes of Trek! 

First up on TOS, as we wind down the series we're chatting about the no-way-it-didn't-influence-George-Lucas episode, "The Cloud Minders." Debuting back on February 28, 1969, this episode has Spock getting super-psyched to visit a cloud city, a guy throwing himself off a cloud city balcony, Kirk getting salty after inhaling some bad fumes, and our Enterprise boys looking for a chemical compound called Zenite! 

Then a few parsecs over, we're talking TNG's "Legacy." This episode first dropped on October 27, 1990, and features our Enterprise crew meeting Tasha Yar's sister, Data getting better than Riker at poker, Picard admitting he recruited Tasha and stole her away from another starship post, and yet another Yar girl falling in love with a robot! 

The Nexus is a WHM podcast where the guys futilely go through two Star Trek series at the same time. Thank you so much for continuing to support our family of shows—we couldn't do it without you! We know you have lots of options for podz and we're super-stoked you chose to spend some time with us—thanks again!
