Angel Two: a feminist Star Trek podcast

In each episode, we discuss an aspect of Star Trek from a feminist perspective; specific episodes, characters, themes and the implied messages about humanity and equality in the future as well as in the last 50 years. Don't worry. We're card-carrying humourless feminists, so we'll never, ever wander off topic or make terrible Trek jokes or devolve into one-upwomanship over who knows more about Trek. It's clearly Fiona who obviously isn't writing this in the hated third person. Oh yes, indeedy.

The obvious place for us to go to is Angel One. Spoiler: it SUCKS.

 

We discuss how badly this episode sucks at great length, and more importantly, why it sucks so badly that Fiona rolled her eyes so hard at it, she fell out her chair. Trufax.

 

The format of the episode might be different to episode one; this is because Fiona - once safely seated again - is learning all kinds of audio trickery (and may even start using said trickery in the actual podcast sometime), so please give her feedback on whether or not it sucks as hard as an episode of TNG from 1987. Also, yes. She's still really, really quiet. It might actually be her, not the microphone. I also hate referring to myself in the 3rd person.

 

We are now on twitter at @angeltwopod and Facebook! Come, be our internet friends! Please?

Settle in with your cup of Earl Grey (hot), raktajino, Saurian brandy, or... well, it's green?

This is a long one!

 

We are AB Silvera, Sophie Norman and Fiona, and we're Star Trek obsessives fans. (Sorry, Sophie!) We're also feminists. Who loooove to talk about Star Trek. You won't know us from anything, unless you stalk us on twitter, in which case - hi Mum!

 

In this episode, we discuss our personal histories with Trek, and episodes we watched just before recording, which will hopefully give you an inkling about the course we're charting in our adventure. What do you mean, go over the Soliton Wave? Pah!

 

A note on the sound quality and editing: Fiona is doing this (she's the one who sat too far away from the microphone so is quite quiet) and is mostly learning from YouTube tutorials. At least my eyebrows are on fleek, right? In the 24th century, I'd be in a blue uniform, not a gold one. Hopefully this will become less obvious over time!

 

Music for our show is by our lovely friend Sandy and our logo is by our friend Kat (who is up to her eyeballs in the most beautiful PhD I've ever seen). Seriously, we have amazing and talented friends!

Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoy!
