Our new ep is up! We're talking eugenics, racist stereotypes, being Team T'Pring, and how Carol Marcus Did Nothing Wrong as we discuss #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds' "The Griffin Incident". antimatterpod.com/238-evil-gen...

Our new ep is up! The premiere of #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds' fourth season did absolutely nothing to change our minds about this show. Listen to us talk about the episode Anika describes as "morally broken"! antimatterpod.com/237-a-forehe...

Genuinely: After literal years of people going, "Wow, I love Pike so much, Pike is so great" while I'm sitting here, feeling like I am losing my goddamn mind, this is a balm for my soul also thank god someone else noticed that he constantly puts command decisions onto his subordinates

Is Christopher Pike the worst Star Trek captain? 100% of the Antimatter Pod hosts say yes!

Something tells me @antimatterpod.bsky.social is going to be INTENSE this season!

And then ... there's Strange New Worlds.

It's almost time for #StrangeNewWorlds Season 4! For your consideration: ANTIMATTER POD, the only podcast that answers the question "What is Starfleet?" with "Norway, obviously."

Like Paul Stamets after 133 jumps through the mycelial network, we have made it! To the mid-season hiatus of #StarTrekDiscovery! This week, we talk about "Into the Forest I Go", and ask: is disobeying orders a compulsory class at the Academy, or just an elective for people on the command track?

It's late but it's here! This week, we talk about "Si Vic Pacem, Para Bellum" and the scream heard around Tumblr and Discord. Plus Saru, Michael and Ash take a nice walk in a Canadian forest. #StarTrekDiscovery antimatterpod.com/235-ghosts-o...

There is only one episode of #StarTrekDiscovery that Anika strongly dislikes ... and this is it. We talk about time loops, space whales, love stories and Stella. antimatterpod.com/234-mushroom...

It is TIME! To talk about #StarTrekDiscovery episode "Lethe"! We wrote. So much fic. After this episode aired back in 2017. And we're here to ask: is this a flawless episode? Or does it have one single flaw? antimatterpod.com/233-eyebrows...

We continue our #StarTrekDiscovery rewatch with "Choose Your Pain", an episode which inspired us to play a fun game called Which Other Starfleet Captains Would Also Leave Mudd In A Klingon Prison? (Answer: Archer. In a heartbeat.) antimatterpod.com/232-future-e...

New ep is up! We're discussing #StarTrekDiscovery ep "The Butcher's Knife Care's Not For The Lamb's Cry", and we are specifically talking about how Lorca was so cartoonishly sinister that OBVIOUSLY it was a misdirect; the problem with Landry; the bigger problem with Saru; and also, sigh, Elon Musk.

Our #StarTrekDiscovery rewatch continues with "Context Is For Kings", in which Michael boards the USS Discovery and meets some truly unpleasant people. And also Captain Lorca, who seems like a nice guy! antimatterpod.com/230-michaels...

By popular demand, we are starting an episode-by-episode look at the first season of #StarTrekDiscovery. We begin with "The Vulcan Hello" and "The Battle at the Binary Stars", an opening which feels more like the series finale of a different Star Trek. antimatterpod.com/229-stupid-s...

New episode is up! We watch #StarTrekVoyager episode "Real Life" and ask: is this just two B plots in search of an A plot? Also, we are BIG MAD over the cancellation of Starfleet Academy! antimatterpod.com/228-doctorvi...

New episode is out! We're discussing the first season finale of #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy! Some men will become interstellar gangsters and threaten the entire Federation rather than go to therapy, and you know? It's 2026, so sure, that makes sense. antimatterpod.com/moving-at-th...

New ep is up! We look at #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy's "300th Night", featuring some great performances, problematic set design and a wig from the Orphan Black reject pile. antimatterpod.com/226-away-tea...

#StarTrekStarfleetAcademy got us RIGHT in the feels. We discuss "The Life of the Stars", Our Town, resilience, agency and whether or not the Doctor needs a kick in the shins. antimatterpod.com/225-the-libe...

Hey, wasn't our wedding season over? But here comes #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy to add one more to the mix! We're talking "Ko'Zeine" - Star Trek wedding clichés, toxic perfectionism and freeing Darem to be his truest self (an asshole). antimatterpod.com/224-queen-of...

“Come, Let's Away" and discuss the latest episode of #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy with Anika and Liz! Is it a bad sign when your fun Star Trek for teens references Grave of the Fireflies? Will Nus Braka EVER stop talking? Is it unfair to compare Admiral Vance to Chuck Schumer?

On Academia in #StarfleetAcademy

New episode is up! We talk about #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy's "Series Acclimation Mil", and ask the big questions: is there such a thing as too much fan service? What's the legal drinking age in the Federation? Are we due for a DS9 rewatch? antimatterpod.com/222-tumblr-s...

JayDar is real. #StarfleetAcademy

New ep is up! We're talking #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy's "Vox In Excelso" - queer allegories! Climate refugee allegories! Liz's secret past as a debate kid! antimatterpod.com/221-starflee...

New Antimatter Pod! We're discussing the #StarTrekStarfleetAcademy episode "Vitus Reflux" - it's a prank war, it's a sports rivalry, it's a heist ... but is it Star Trek? It sure is! In conclusion: KYLE. antimatterpod.com/220-take-me-...

Caleb and Nahla are completely different and also the same person. From our latest episode on the two episode series premiere of #StarfleetAcademy!

#StarTrekStarfleetAcademy: it's good and we like it. Our new episode, covering the premiere, "Kids These Days", and "Beta Test", is up now in all good podcatchers! antimatterpod.com/219-liberal-...
