Join Lily, Scott, and Shawn as they remember the great Leonard Nimoy and discuss the iconic first episode of Star Trek's second season: Amok Time! Listen as they take you through the story of a lonely Vulcan and his mating urges. They'll explain why Spock is pretty much a giant salmon, how Vulcan courtship is merely reciting Michael Bolton lyrics, and why this whole episode is very awkward. Forget Pon Farr, live long and podcast!

Join Shawn and Scott as they discuss an 80's Saturday morning gem: The rarely seen (or heard of) animated X-Men pilot for NBC! Listen as Scott gives a condensed history of the X-Men in animation, Shawn addresses recent news of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and both recount a Spider-Man voter registration PSA with great confusion. Why does Wolverine speak with an Australian accent? (Yes, really.) Why aren't most of the X-Men dead at the end of this episode? What's up with Kitty Pryde's parents? These questions, and more, get tackled like a powered-up Magneto! We tried like thunder, and now this episode is coming your way!

Join Lily, Scott, and Shawn as they take a look back at a cult classic from 1991. A time when a young SNL writer named Conan O'Brien joined forces with Robert Smigel to write a pilot starring Adam West as a clueless former TV detective named Lookwell. Listen as they discuss the brilliance of Adam West, draw parallels to Batman from the 1960's, speculate what a full season would be like, and even try out a Lookwell line reading of their own. Sit down, grab a Firm Pop and enjoy!
