Episode 37: Spaceballs Trek!


Episode 37: Spaceballs Trek!

This week on Synthaholics we thought we would try something a little different. With Star Wars The Force Awakens only a month away we thought we’d talk about easily the best Star Wars Parody ever made Spaceballs! But never fear Trekkies this movie has two cameos by actors in Star Trek. The actors  both appear on the episode art and we give them a mention in the episode! Please join us as we boldly go where no Synthaholics podcast has gone before! Please grab your Mr. Coffee It’s time for your Mr Synthaholics!
