It's the first episode of BackTrekking, the show where we look back at the real-world inspirations of classic Trek episodes!
This week, hosts Ka1iban and GooeyFame are talking about the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Starship Mine" and its clear inspiration, the classic action blockbuster "Die Hard"! Both Captain Picard and John McClane find themselves being hunted by terrorists and must use their wits to survive!
On the show, we talk about the way Trek inspires real-world science and technology, going "full Marvel", having an unlicensed Blockbuster card, learning to kill again, "Die-Hard-on-a-blank", 300 year-old Mr. Ed references, the enigma of Hart Bochner, Admiral Bruce Willis, and everyone's singing!
