PODCAST

Deep Space Gay

In this weekly podcast your two hosts, Alex and Paula, discuss their favourite fandoms from a new perspective. Listen to them discuss their favourite episodes and characters, talk about the relevance of diverse fandoms and the history of geeks, and sometimes loose it over the weirdness of the universe (and their own tired brains)! Our current main fandoms are Star Trek and the MCU, but honestly, we go wherever inspiration and hyper-fixation guide us.

One does not simply produce a Star Trek show without writing an episode about the crew being affected by a space virus! In this episode your hosts Alex and Paula discuss the special kind of space virus that makes people horny and turns androids "fully functional". While Alex cannot get over the fact that people actually produced these episodes and their content, Paula tries to explain why the portrayal of women, children, and space viruses in general, tends to be more on the sexist and cringey side
