The Nexus 24 - "Space Seed" / "Skin of Evil"
Added 2018-08-24 20:30:18 +0000 UTCOn this month's trip into the Nexus, the gang is chatting about two monumental episodes of Trek! First, on TOS, it's finally time to cover the first meeting with Khan in "Space Seed"! Originally airing February 16th, 1967, this episode features Kirk being a shitty boss, everyone but Spock admiring a murderous dictator, and Khan's amazing wig! PLUS: Bones McCoy absolutely loves the 1990s!
Then over on TNG, the crew of the Enterprise says, "Vaya con Dios," to Tasha Yar on, "Skin of Evil"! Originally airing April 23rd, 1988, this episode features an angry oil monster, Riker getting slimed, and Dr. Crusher doing her best to revive a clearly dead person! PLUS: Picard and the crew prank Worf on his birthday!

Three years late, but the white washing talk about Khan reminded me how people today talk about Napoleon or Genghis Khan.
