Red Shirt Energy with Brent Fox

What happens when Captain Kirk finds out why the inmates are so calm and collected? Find out as we discover what happens in "Dagger of the Mind."

What happens when you find a planet that is just like Earth, but the only known inhabitants are children? Find out what a society run like a game looks like on this episode titled "Miri."

What happens when the Enterprise's top nurse finally tracks down or once thought to be lost fiancé? We find out where he's been and what it is he's be doing all this time.

There is something strange about the women brought aboard the Enterprise. Discover their secret and meet the first recurring non-crew member in his initial appearance.

"The Enemy Within" marks the first time a second version of a main crew member wreaks havoc on the Enterprise, but it certainly won't be the last.

Despite the odd name, "The Naked Time" proves to be both a chilling and at certain times funny episode. It's zany and at times a little heavy, but it's a real credit to the original writers of the series.

"Where No Man Has Gone Before" really sold NBC on Star Trek and captured the viewers' attention when it aired as the third episode of the very first season. Find out what how this episode launched a nearly 60 year franchise.

The second episode features a teenager who has been gifted with near unlimited powers. We'll see what he does when the crew of the Enterprise doesn't do exactly what he wants them to.

I jump in head first into the first ever episode of Star Trek to be broadcast on NBC back on September 8th, 1966. I explore the ups and downs and experience what it may have been like to watch this episode when it was first beamed into people's homes.
