Why would a #StarTrek podcast do an episode about #themeparks? THIS IS WHY:

What do you think of Lanita’s take on Four-and-Half Vulcans? Let us know!

From our #StrangeNewWorlds Season 3 recap episode with our friends @mattljenn.bsky.social and @leighellenm.bsky.social

Still hoping @maryltrump.bsky.social will join us to talk Trek politics one of these days..

Hailing Frequencies Open Podcast @hailingfreqopen.bsky.social · 14d

OUT NOW:

Lanita has seen 100% of televised Trek but NOT the movies. So we’re covering her first viewing 1 by 1. Fresh perspective!

The great cosplay drag queen @dmandamartini.bsky.social joins us for the original crew’s cinematic swan song.

STAR TREK VI THE UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY.

Our Strange New Worlds Season 3 recap is LIVE NOW!

This one was a beast so we needed to bring in some of our favorite pod friends to lighten the load:

@mattljenn.bsky.social from @1701blerd.bsky.social

and @leighellenm.bsky.social from @toproudlygo.org

We dropped our SNW3 recap this week. But - being who we are - we needed to book @annarozay.bsky.social ASAP for a Season 3 HAIR RECAP.

If this sounds like just a bunch of frivolous queers dishing hair, boy have you misread us! Hair in Trek is one of the best windows into character we have.

I knew it was bad when I posted the Roddenberry Foundation meme version of this on Facebook, and someone came for me.

We had an amazing time with Alex from @deosildesigns.bsky.social as she took us through her #StarTrek #tarot deck.

We obviously went deep on our favorites.

Especially…

“If there’s nothing wrong with me, there must be…” Oh you all know!!

How does a canonista like our own @themikejones.bsky.social sleep at night??

He creates alternate timelines to make it all make sense!

Listening to Alex from @deosildesigns.bsky.social talk about her Trek themed tarot cards was transcendent!!

Between her knowledge of Tarot, her depth of 90’s Trek fandom, and her smooth buttery speaking voice, we were in full-on podcast Pon Farr.

Find this one now! It’s out!!

This is a dream come true for me 🥰

Explaining why I do my art and how, w Mike Jones, Lanita, and Damian, just 100% :getting it:

I love showing people what I see when I look at Star Trek. Come with us as we deep dive into the Trek Deck!

We had the absolute honor and joy last night of hanging out with the great writer, podcaster, and #StarTrek historian @larrynemecek.bsky.social for a bit of early TNG history.

We could’ve talked to Larry all night! But we promise we eventually let him sign off.

We found our voice in Season 4!

Trekkies are the coolest humans in the universe, and so many of them said yes when we asked them to come talk to us.

Y’all, we got a Season 5 glow-up!

Can you spot the differences??

We fully abused the generosity of renowned cosplay drag queen @dmandamartini.bsky.social this week, recording a killer double header.

We spent some time getting to know her, then dug deep into Lanita’s virgin viewing of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Can’t wait to share these episodes
