The Nexus 37 - "Mirror, Mirror" / "A Matter of Honor"
Added 2019-09-26 23:38:30 +0000 UTCOn this month's journey into the Nexus, the gang starts off with a chat about one of the best episodes of TOS ever, then follows it up with a convo about a season 2 TNG ep that might be more interesting than the guys initially gave it credit!
On TOS, it's "Mirror, Mirror," the alternate dimension classic that originally aired on October 6th, 1967! It features such legendary Trek elements like hilarious goatees, the crew almost giving Kirk the ole' Nazi salute, and, of course, the crew trying to rob a peaceful civilization of their most precious natural resource!
Then on TNG, it's "A Matter of Honor," which originally dropped on syndication on February 4th, 1989! This ep features such classic Trek wonders like Riker pigging out on Klingon cuisine, Picard getting quietly furious with a frustrating gleep-glop cadet, and Worf getting dangerously close to, what else? Murdering a fellow officer!
PLUS: Would Gallagher be the Klingon Empire's favorite comedian?
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!

Riker in Klingon armor? How dare you. That's Klingon stolen Valor!
