Two Geeks & No Plan
Trek Geeks: A Star Trek Podcast
The All-Outtake Episode! 2023 was a sad, sad year.

Bill and Dan have decided to make up for it this week with an entire episode about NOTHING! Now, now...calm down, Andy Fark. We know you're gonna say, "EVERY episode is about nothing," and, while you might be right, this one is even more nothinger. So THERE. Take that, doodoohead. So, this episode is what happens when Bill and Dan have no plan at all....

Spectre of the Gun
Trek Geeks: A Star Trek Podcast
Back in the Saddle Again (See, this is a Western episode and "Back in the Saddle" is a song sung by a cowb...never mind.) Some might say that it's been a long road gettin' from there to here. They might also say it's been a long time, but our time is finally near. Well, that time is NOW! That's right Geeks, the Flagship has entered standard orbit and is beaming down a classic Star Trek episode this week: "Spectre of the Gun."
