Neelix lies to a child to make himself feel better. Join your fantasy-loving hosts as they discuss best intentions misguided by past trauma, behind the scenes info on the original version of this weird and engaging tale, and the benefits of pushing past whimsey-world into the realm of the off-putting. Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: Voyager, so if you haven’t had a chance to see it yet – beware! Next week: We will discuss high-stakes bluffing and goofy aliens in Star Trek: The Original Series' "The Corbomite Maneuver" Note that this and all episodes of the It’s Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.
