TEX-TREK Mission 356: STAR TREK: TOS's "Space Seed" Back-Trekking Retrospective


This week we are Back-Trekking to one of the most legendary episodes in Star Trek history — “Space Seed” from TOS. Join us as we revisit the debut of Khan Noonien Singh, the genetically engineered tyrant whose clash with Captain Kirk would echo across Trek canon for decades. We’ll explore how this classic episode built the foundation for "The Wrath of Khan" and how it hits different now after listening to the KAHN audio drama.


As always, available in both video and audio-only formats.
