#188 – ‘Court Martial’ TOS S1E20

After Captain Kirk is accused of negligent homicide, Spock plays chess. Join your law-leery hosts as they discuss peculiar prosecutorial strategies, the motivations of missing madmen, and how the show Arrested Development influenced the ending of this episode of Star Trek: The Original Series.

Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware!

Next week: We begin our coverage of season 2 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds!!

Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.
