This week, we continue with our wind down of the celebration Star Treks 50th anniversary with one of the very best episodes of them all - "The Doomsday Machine!"\xa0 As you may recall from our last episode, this one ranks #4 in Bill's all time favorite TOS episodes, while Dan had it ranked as his 3rd favorite. \xa0Any way you slice it, it is a PHENOMENAL episode and we will discuss all aspects of this classic as well as discuss the amazing remastering of the episode by Mike and Denise Okuda. \xa0We will also talk about the incredible performance by William Windom as Commodore Matt Decker, and what makes this episode so special for both of us.

But that's not all! \xa0In addition to the discussion about the giant, planet killing cornucopia, we have a lot of news to cover, including some awesome casting announcements for Star Trek Discovery! \xa0Three incredible actors have been announced as we are so excited with who they are! \xa0Plus, we are feeling pretty old with the two Star Trek Anniversaries that occurred recently, and did you know that Star Trek Timelines is making it even harder for Dan to be productive at work? \xa0How, you ask? \xa0Well you will just have to tune in to find out!
