Trek News and Views: A Star Trek Podcast

The Naked Time. Unique outfits. Lack of outfits. Time travel. "The Naked Time" has it all. And in this episode of Trek News & Views we're joined by Drew Stewart and Charlynn Schmiedt to talk about the early TOS story in which the Enterprise crew becomes intoxicated by space germs. We delve into Spock's shower-curtain outfit, how we see his human side come to the fore, as well as how the loss of inhibition affects Kirk and how he divulges his two loves. Along the way we talk about topless Sulu and how the outfits of each department had unique qualities—including a highly absorbant red shirt.
