Carrie and Sarah watch Star Trek The Original Series, so you don’t have to.
In this week's episode, Carrie and Sarah say Nazi a lot. So, trigger warning, lots of Nazi stuff, including sympathizing, and some light whipping. If you don't like Nazis, and you don't like puns about Nazis, this really might not be your episode, and that's okay!
Carrie and Sarah actually didn't hate this one. At this point, that's really saying something. Is it good? Well, no not really. Does it need a trigger warning though? No, not really! See, progress.
We have a special guest in this episode! Katrina joins us, she's a friend of the show, and spoiler, she got too drunk to trek. It's a first for Carrie and Sarah, but it was probably a statistical inevitability considering the premise that was chosen for the podcast. Trigger warnings include but are not limited to: violence against women, a poorly written strong female character, "evil" woman stereotype, drugging without consent, and vomit.
Whoa buddy, okay, so, Sarah forgot to upload this on Wednesday. Whoops. Anyways, Carrie and Sarah get a little out of hand here. There are no trigger warnings for the episode but do prepare yourself for far too many references to youth group, and the many incorrect things they taught there in the late 90s and early 00s. Also, Sarah's head cannon is fed even more fuel for the Bones love triangle. Which if you ask her is the best part of the whole show.
Hey, we're back with another episode, ya hear?! There are heaters in this one in case you're not a fan of gun violence, capeesh? Carrie and Sarah are glad to have bagged this episode and put it on ice.
Boooooooooooooooooooooy howdy, did Carrie and Sarah pick quite the episode to come back with. This week, after the long break of trying to be humans, Carrie and Sarah dive into this terrible moment in history. Trigger warnings include but are not limited to: assault against women, implied rape, heteronormative statements, transphobia, and a little slavery and racism thrown in there, because why not?!
Hey guys! It's a holiday bonus episode! While 2 Drunk 2 Trek is on hiatus, Carrie and Sarah are working hard to still bring you a tiny amount of content since they have no time to edit real episodes. Enjoy this bonus episode where they drink, oh man, it is so bad, holiday flavored seltzers. You're welcome.
Great news this week! Carrie and Sarah finally made it to the only episode they had ever previously heard of and they are joined by none other than Mort Mortenson! Sure, they all had a little "tribble" staying on point, but it's okay because there aren't any trigger warnings! How nice is that?! P.S. Did we create a booze fund? Yes. Do you have to buy us drinks monthly? No. But if you wanna! https://www.patreon.com/2drunk2trek
This week Carrie and Sarah try to navigate an episode that seems determined to piss them off. You'd think for an entire episode about a hedonistic planet, it would be more fun. Trigger warning for violence against women, and also just being overall terrible. There is one good laugh, which was the least it could do. It has to get better, right? P.S. Did we create a booze fund? Yes. Do you have to buy us drinks monthly? No. But if you wanna! https://www.patreon.com/2drunk2trek
This week Carrie and Sarah tackle yet another sentient cloud episode, though thank goodness this one does not require any trigger warnings. Unless you're triggered by Carrie and Sarah complaining about this show and bad things it has done in the past, in which case, sorry because that's basically the whole thing. P.S. Did we create a booze fund? Yes. Do you have to buy us drinks monthly? No. But if you wanna! https://www.patreon.com/2drunk2trek
That's right guys, Carrie and Sarah chose to watch this BS, so you didn't have to. If you choose to watch this, well that's on you. Maybe not so much a trigger warning, but a definite call out to the ageism in this episode. Like wow, didn't realize people were basically dead when they hit 60. Has anyone told William Shatner? Anyways, godspeed, sorry about... well... everything. P.S. Did we create a booze fund? Yes. Do you have to buy us drinks monthly? No. But if you wanna! https://www.patreon.com/2drunk2trek
This week with Carrie and Sarah, the one where Bones becomes a daddy. Much like you would expect in the episode where that happens, we also have a trigger warning for violence against women, even if it's a barbarian culture where she's real into that, and Carrie and Sarah... mostly Sarah... make some real off color jokes about babies. Also, maybe like a trigger warning for men telling women what to do with their bodies and offspring... that's pretty relevant right now. Bones is a POS. Enjoy. P.S. Did we create a booze fund? Yes. Do you have to buy us drinks monthly? No. But if you wanna! https://www.patreon.com/2drunk2trek
Carrie and Sarah delve into Spock's complex trauma, but at least that's the only real trigger warning (manipulative and distant parents)! And you get to meet Spock's parents, who aren't at all manipulative, or distant. It's fine, everything is fine, a perfectly normal family dynamic. Still somehow, kind of a fun episode though.
Two very important things this episode. 1. Carrie and Sarah are back from hiatus with a very special guest, Jessica, on a very special episode of 2 Drunk 2 Trek. 2. TRIGGER WARNINGS! Mostly trigger warnings for transphobia, maybe even some homophobia, definitely some you're not loveable if you're ugly, oh and a dash of "what's consent?", and then just some good ol' fashioned cis-gendered elitism sprinkled throughout. This episode was rough guys. You might not think it at first, but, well, just you wait.
Okay, listen guys, is this almost 2 hours? Yes, sure, but also Carrie and Sarah are really funny. A good 10+ minutes is just them lamenting that Dan Macken chose his business, Docking Bay 93, over this podcast that doesn't pay him anything. Oh yeah, and Harry Mudd is back in this episode, if the name didn't give it away. Also, Sarah laughed so hard at her own joke she cried.
This is one SPoooOOOoooOOOKY episode! Join Carrie and Sarah while they try to find any meaning it, and also discuss the rad outfits. That's it really. Not a lot of substance to this one.
Damn it guys, we made it pretty long not needing a trigger warning, but this week Carrie and Sarah get pretty deep into conversations on survivor's guilt, situational trauma, and suicide. So, be prepared for that. The rest of the episode is not at all triggering... unless you've been watching TOS for a year, and you're us, and you had to make it.
This week's episode is called The Apple, or if you hold your tongue and say it, The Kirk. Carrie and Sarah have a pretty good time talking about all the plots that got away in this one, and they solve nothing. Enjoy!
Since it's a day late this week, Carrie and Sarah are serving you up an almost two hour episode! Jk, that's not why it's long, they just talk so much. This episode has so many almost trigger warnings that end up being okay, that's it's like it just needs a general trigger warning for anxiety over something that never happens. Kind of like the rest of the world right now. The good news is, it's about an alternate universe where the episode could have sucked more than it did.
Sorry we missed a week guys! To make up for it, enjoy this very normal episode of 2 Drunk 2 Trek where Carrie and Sarah do nothing out of the ordinary, but Star Trek takes a giant leap and passes the Bechdel Test! Talk about exciting! Everything else sucked though. ENJOY!
Okay, it's a day late, but it's like, really good. Carrie and Sarah have a very special guest this week, Amelia Cook, she touched something that is now ON MARS! That isn't an exaggeration either, her company Goodwinds Composites created tubes for the legs of Ingenuity, the helicopter that is about to attempt its first flight on Mars this weekend. How. Freaking. Cool. Is. That?! Also we recorded this episode in the same room, but trying to keep like 6ft apart because you know, COVID and such. So the audio isn't perfect, but when is it? Anyways guys, we know your bar isn't that high if you're still listening.
Okay okay okay okay, Carrie and Sarah really can't complain too much about the start of Season 2. It's a pretty Spock heavy episode, and they have a lot to say, but most of it isn't bad! There were some beautiful costumes, and people, and overall, no trigger warnings. There was almost a trigger warning but then there wasn't because this episode didn't suck!
This week, Carrie and Sarah are giving you the gift of all the conversations that didn't make the cut last season. It's finally time for the cutting room floor of Season 1 of 2 Drunk 2 Trek! It's like an hour of pure gold. You're welcome. Also, just want to acknowledge that while this episode is light and fun, we in no way want to diminish the severity of hate against POC, specifically the AAPI community, over the last year but especially this last week when it was brought into harsh perspective for all of us. Please consider donating to the below organizations, or researching on your own and finding an organization that supports POC that you believe in. https://www.gofundme.com/c/act/stop-aapi-hate https://aapifund.org/ https://www.imreadymovement.org
Carrie and Sarah made you a very special episode, where they got to finally just sit around and talk about what they actually liked, and a little bit about what they didn't, about that whole entire first season they watched for you. Thanks for listening for like... so many episodes. You guys are the best!
Oh jeez, oh boy, guys, Carrie and Sarah discuss the season one FINALE Operation - Annihilate!... or... if you're Carrie, Operation - Annihilation! Arguably, a better name. There are farting jelly monsters, and there are rants, and your hosts got finale level drunk, it's basically everything you could have hoped for!
Welcome back Dan Macken of Docking Bay 93! He's joining Carrie and Sarah for the highest rated episode of Star Trek The Original Series, and also providing them with some much needed information, including JOAN COLLINS! Which by the way, they didn't put together Joan Collins in this episode, same Joan Collins from Dy-NASTY! Oh boy, it's good. This is a good one, which we don't say lightly, but still needs a trigger warning for one really stupid racist scene. Wouldn't have been 1967 without it though... I guess.
Oh. My. God. Guys. This episode suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. Carrie and Sarah do their best to make it have even the tiniest storyline to follow, but just know, it really doesn't. Like, maybe there is time travel or alternate universes? Plot is unclear, Carrie and Sarah got drunk.
This week Carrie and Sarah deep dive into the first episode to feature the Klingons! It's not like, the best thing ever, so they spend most of the episode talking about how cool they eventually become and discussing the fashion, because somehow that's one of the most prominent things in this episode. So. Much. Glitter. Pants. Could have been worse though!
This week's episode is everything Carrie and Sarah thought they were going to be getting from TOS, and finally are. It might not sound like it as they complain for an hour and half, but they did actually enjoy it on some level. Once again, no trigger warning needed! Well, except to say that Spock isn't at his best, which is kind of upsetting on a whole different level, but enjoy!
This week on 2 Drunk 2 Trek Carrie and Sarah think they are better at naming episodes than the professionals and they decide to start taking matters into their own hands. Except, then they forget to tell you what they named it, and thus far have forgotten to ever mention it again. Most exciting news, no real trigger warning! There is a spoiler alert near the end for a 60 year old spoiler that if you didn't know already, what are you even doing here?
This week Carrie and Sarah see how many genres of music they can reference within one episode, and Spock makes two jokes! It's actually, not as bad as so many others, and NO TRIGGER WARNING! Oh.... except like, maybe attempted genocide of an entire world.
Carrie and Sarah are joined this episode by their best friend Mort Mortenson. Mort used to have a nice rosy memory of TOS but then he watched this, the first episode with Khan, which also requires the following trigger warnings: physically and mentally abusive relationships, grooming, toxic masculinity and eugenics... because why the f*ck not. We also had quite a few audio issues, please forgive any of the particularly rough bits, or maybe more accurately, you're welcome for having to listen to slightly less of this episode.
This week's episode made Carrie and Sarah do some real big sighs, and that's not just because it needs a trigger warning for assault, again. On the bright side, there is some good talk about trauma, because anything is better than talking about this episode. It gets better though, right guys? Right?
Carrie and Sarah really took one for the team on this one. If they were describing this episode in one word it would be boring. However, they use a lot more words than that, and it's still better than having to have watched it at all. If anyone is ever going to tell you that you don't have to watch an episode, let it be this one. Save yourself, don't watch this episode, but do please listen to someone else talk about it for twice as long as it would have taken you to watch.
This week Carrie and Sarah get mad that once again the crew has discovered and navigated time travel like, no problem, but that doesn't seem to matter. Nothing matters actually, but at least we don't need a trigger warning! YAY!
We have another guest, the wonderful, hilarious, Holly who also hates Kirk and loves Spock, YAY! I feel like maybe we need to get a Kirk sympathizer on this podcast to even out the hate, but at the same time, naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Either way, which we discovered in this episode is Sarah's segue to move on, this really could have been worse. Carrie, Sarah, and Holly will tell you all about it... kind of... mostly.
In this week's episode we meet someone who is an even bigger baby than Kirk, somehow. Carrie and Sarah don't understand the moral of the story, or if there even was one. Trigger warning of sorts for your standard 60s racism and Kirk interacting with women in general. Does it get better guys? When does it get better? P.S. Just realized two of our episodes are numbered as 116 and since it's 2020, why bother fixing it?
This episode was recorded the day Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away, and as you can imagine Carrie and Sarah took that news really well. In addition to that, 2020 was still in full swing and there were wild fires nearby causing the air quality to be about as bad as this episode, and that's pretty bad. Anyways, since we are demonstrably not current at all on recording vs releasing were gonna start releasing weekly. Oh and in this episode people are mean to Spock, RBG died, nothing really matters, enjoy!
We have yet another special guest appearance of Dan Macken, owner of Docking Bay 93, in this episode, and a truly tragic death... It's Sarah crush on Bones, it died this episode and it isn't looking good for any kind of recovery or comeback. Also adding a trigger warning here for assault, because why not just keep needing trigger warnings, you abominable show.
Sorry it's late! But listen okay, things are looking up... for now. This next real episode has it all, love, death, and Romulans. Carrie and Sarah get some history lessons that aren't super boring, and then they complain a whole bunch about how the writers don't know anything about space, or love, or Spock.
Carrie and Sarah recorded this on 11/6/2020, and they didn't know what they would wake up to today, but they felt like they just needed to say something about this week. After days of uncertainty and stress they decided to bring you a very special election episode just to state that even when we aren't certain, we can still live our lives with compassion and hope for the future, like Genesus Christenberry would have wanted. P.S. Congratulations to President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris on making history.
Okay okay okay, here's the thing, we talk a lot when we don't like things I guess? I know it's long, you could probably skip this one, Sarah does some Shakespeare flexes but you'll see she hasn't worked out those muscles in awhile, and Carrie... puts up with her. It's all very on brand.
And now for the thrilling conclusion to possibly the most meta episode of TOS we've seen yet! Spoilers, but man, we did not see that one coming!
Oh my god, this episode is actually pretty good. Carrie and Sarah are on the edge of their seats. P.S. It's not entirely free of problematic themes though. So... buckle up for a few head desk moments, but what's 1966 without at least one thing that makes you go "Seriously?!"
This week is a very special episode of 2 Drunk 2 Trek in that there are 3 of us! We have a special guest of Docking Bay 93 fame, Dan Macken. He is the owner of Mount Vernon Washington's best comic shop Docking Bay 93 and he really helps make this episode not as dumb as it could have been. Give it a listen and go buy things from him! Also, of note, while still creepy at points, this episode doesn't require a trigger warning.
In this week's episode, Carrie and Sarah try to talk a band they know into writing them a song out of some amazing post apocalyptic phrases, and would love to say this episode doesn't need a trigger warning but... that wouldn't be very 1966 of it now would it? So, trigger warning for grooming and some childhood trauma. This wasn't a smooth ride.
Carrie and Sarah break down an episode that has robots, trigger warnings, crystalline dicks, but you know what it doesn't have? Any little girls. So... that's a thing.
If you're wondering how the stupidest episode thus far somehow became our longest episode thus far, well, wonder no further! It's because it's so stupid we had to say "It was so stupid" for an hour and 45 minutes. Also, there were pretty dresses and we're only human, so we had to describe those in detail.
Carrie and Sarah deep dive into some uncomfortable topics when Kirk gets split into two versions of himself, but don't worry, there's trigger warnings *and* a unicorn lion dog alien with antennae. Seriously though, it was a dog.
This week Carrie and Sarah try not to spoil anything from The Next Generation but it's hard when you find out they have an almost identical episode. Then they rant for a bit at end and get cut off by their sober selves. Enjoy!
