As Soda remarks in this podcast, “…[TOS is] a treasure trove of tropes.”
Spend an hour-and-half with us as we walk through the many and varied tropes of Star Trek’s The Original Series tv show and how they thrive in fanfiction, from the fans’ perspective decades ago to current times. While TOS did not necessarily invent every trope highlighted in this podcast, the show likely re-invented the concept, inspired its popularity, or lifted it to a state of notoriety. And after listening to our fun discussion, you may just find yourself going back to some episodes to watch your favorite tropes in action!

In this podcast, join us in lamenting the journey through this self-imposed task (no menial feat!), and then rejoice over the Original Series episodes which did make our lists. We tell you why. Also find out which episodes almost made the cut. And of course, share your lists!
