crying at every single audio drama because queer love stories like this weren’t available to me when I was young and I’m just SO happy for the current generation and so grateful for these creators.

(also, fuck the rightwing fuckheads on your school boards!! we’ll beat ‘em back, I promise. if the adults in your life don’t support you, know that I do and every single person in my life does too)

I 2nd the recc for starship iris.

Its got one of the few actually good Jewish characters out there, who is also a trans man and a linguist and wanted by several space mafia iirc. Theres a bonus episode of the characters bonding over getting into a space opera about gay pirates privateers. Theres a heist on an abandoned casino space station. Its good stuff.

>>I'm listening to fiction podcasts with 5 fans.<<

Sorry to bother you. I don't follow you, and you have no reason to know who I am. Someone I follow reblogged your post about getting through the WGA strike by consuming old or obscure media.

The line about podcasts with small fandoms jumped out at me. There are two podcasts of which I am one of those five fans.

The first is Girl in Space.

The second is The Strange Case of Starship Iris.

Both have some things in common, like a woman protagonist/primary narrator and a science fiction setting that involves space exploration as the background. Also both put the protagonist into opposition to an imperialist colonizing Earth government in some way.

Starship Iris has more overtly queer elements and themes.

Anytime I see something that might be an opportunity, I try to spread awareness of these two podcasts.

I did actually at one point try to listen to Starship Iris! At some point I'd like to go back to it, the first episode didn't hook me too well, and I think there was something about the audio editing or mixing or quality overall that I think I wasn't a fan of? But also shit was going on in my life, I'm not surprised I had a hard time getting it to stick. In turn, I will recommend to you my podcast I was indirectly mentioning in the post: Wolf 359! It's another really good science fiction podcast, it starts off as a comedy and then things get worse. Plot wise, it does become this really interesting look at the experiences of different people living in a capitalist society, and does a great job with thinking about alternate states of "being" we might not immediately recognize as in line with our ideas of life. Also there's classical music, and a shit ton of pop culture references.

Be on your merry way, thank you for reminding me about Starship Iris! :D

So a new episode of The Strange Case of the Starship Iris came out this morning and I still can’t believe how much I love this podcast... 

there’s wonderful flirting, semi-Freudian slips, actual consequences for giving people head injuries, fantastic bluffing... It’s just generally so amazing. 

10/10 would recommend

Or maybe timey-wimey Scotsy-wotsy?

Picture: A closeup each of Jamie and the German officer.

Infotext: Actually it was 1746 (in the 1966-7 serial, “The Highlanders”). Perhaps Jamie is confused after his encounter with the 1745 Redcoat in the last episode. (Or perhaps the authors were...)
