Star Trek: The Original Series - Balance of Terror (1966)

Captain’s Log, Stardate 1709.2After a long hiatus, the Trek-Cast is back with the season one classic, Balance of Terror. I am excited for the submarine inspired action sequences, but can’t help but feel uneasy… I suspect that one of my crew is a Romulan spy - I can’t prove it, but what I can prove is that someone is stealing my hair plugs and selling them on the black market at outrageous prices.I’m hoping to smoke this individual out on the episode and find out where their allegiances lie, by how they rate the dorky looking fashion of the Romulan crew…I’m your host and captain, Dave, and joining me again as we brace for impact from the giant red ball of death are fellow Trekkies Lt. Mike and First Officer Jackie.Topics of discussion in this episode include Trek at its best, aka: submarine style space combat; we’ll also call the fashion police on the Romulan crew’s attire; and finally, William Shatner shows his acting chops and proves that James T. Kirk is more than the Zap Brannigan parody he is known for.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
