Trek to Trek

Bob Mitsch & Eric Gjerdingen

Two eras of Star Trek Back to Back! Kirk vs Sisko. The Original Series and Deep Space Nine. Longtime Star Trek fans Bob Mitsch and Eric Gjerdingen review the merits and failings of both one episode at a time. TOS fan Bob watches Deep Space Nine for the first time in 20 years but DS9 fan Eric watches the Original Series for the first time *ever*. The results should be.. fascinating.
