Star Trek references in pop culture and life #2

First thread

A thread to share Star Trek references from other shows, books or life.

When I switched off my alarm yesterday and turned on the radio, there was a promo talking about Bob's favorite Star Trek nemesis being Khan and that had something to do with an appearance and sale at Conn's this weekend. I would have transcribed the promo better but I don't do mornings.

It would be interesting to know how they tied it in. I wouldn't be able to transcribe anything first thing in the morning either. In my books, you did well to remember the gist of it.
