248: Star Trek TOS "Savage Curtain" Review - Lincoln in Space

Matt and Sean ask whether you should skip Star Trek TOS Season 3, Episode 22, "The Savage Curtain." Abraham Lincoln floats up to the Enterprise, and rock aliens make historical figures brawl to test good and evil. Shatner plays Kirk like a kid meeting his hero. The story still falls apart. Matt rates it below the animated series, and Sean explains why a costume from this episode ended up on Mork.
