289: Battle At The Lithium Cracking Station

Standard Orbit 289: Battle At The Lithium Cracking Station Where No Man Has Gone Before Commentary. This week on Standard Orbit host Zach Moore is joined by Brandon-Shea Mutala from Warp 5 and Melodic Treks for another TOS commentary, this time on Where No Man Has Gone Before. Why the series' second pilot, you ask? Because it's both Brandon and Zach's favorite episode of The Original Series! Is this a perfect "Episode 0" for The Original Series? Does absolute power corrupt absolutely? What's up with Kirk's middle initial? Where does this rank among the rest of the Star Trek pilots? All this and much more in this week's Standard Orbit, boldly listen! Chapters  Welcome to Standard Orbit!
