Issue 213 – Star Trek Into Spoilers – WonderNW – Media News

Greetings Programs. In this issue, the gang has a spoiler filled review of Star Trek Into Darkness. If you haven’t seen it yet and want to avoid spoilers, skip between 6:00 to 37:00 – From then on, it’s all good. Later, we’re joined by the Alter Egos Society as well as Andrew Hill of Caveman Medicine to talk about staying heroic and healthy at WonderNW. All that, and we break down Microsofts’ XBoxOne announcement.
