I Quit Star Trek

33: Metamorphis, or The One Where Zefram Cochrane Gets Groomed by An Energy Cloud

I Quit Star Trek

Show Notes

This week, we're joined by the brilliant Sam (@never_seen_trek) to talk about TOS's Metamorphosis, in which Kirk and the gang are stranded on a planetoid with Zefram Cochrane, inventor of the Warp Drive, who then proceeds to fall in love with the Space Cloud that stole a woman's body. Honestly, I'm not sure it can be put better than that.
