BackTrekking returns again to look back at the real-world inspirations of classic Trek episodes!

You may be cool, but you'll never be James Coburn eating bouillabaisse in a Marseilles go-go bar! When Bond can't handle the job, when the threat is BIGGER than Spectre, when you ABSOLUTELY MUST hire a secret agent that has at least four multi-ethnic girlfriends . . . you call DEREK FLINT, the international man of mystery, who is at home in the casbah as he is in the boudoir!

On this episode, we're talking about the 1966 Eurospy spoof classic and the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode it inspired: "Our Man Bashir"! It's easy to save the world when the holodeck safeties are on, but a computer error makes Bashir's favorite pastime fatally real! We discuss the "Kinks of spy movies", the surprising sensuality of James Coburn, the epitome of '60s cultured charm, unsubtle climate change messaging, Garak as the voice of reason, Bashir's borderline weird proclivities, and getting yelled at by MGM!

We also talk Big Freak Energy, having a dog butler, Hans Gruber?, Adam West's Batman, the anti-American eagle, barrels full of women, the Cardassian neck tux, Sisko's hooting, Dr. Tha-noah-s, "Our Man Flute", Gooey talks about his band's new album, Kal's got a lot of stuff to plug, and everyone is going on blast!
