Gay Space Communism Not Safe Media

Welcome back space travelers to a very special episode! We're kicking it in the studio with Not Safe Media's own Brandyn Buchanan, who's here to talk with us about all things family and Trek. We take a deep dive into a few episodes, talk about our childhoods, and and get to the root of what family is.

NOTE: This will be our last episode for the year. We are taking a short season break and will be back with some great new content next year. While we're gone, we will be making more episodes, Patreon content, merch, and more. Season 2 of GSC will be bigger and better, thanks to every one of you who listens. Check our links below to stay connected to the show while we are on our break.

The pandemic's "worker shortage" has given us a lot to think about with regards to labor, our desires, and communism. So in the Star Trek future, how do we reckon with the amount of work that needs to be done? And who does that work? In this episode, we are doing a deep dive into the Trek workforce and its allegories to the real world. Tune into:


Is there really a job for everyone? How does a jobs guarantee work?
Nepotism & meritocracy
Game: Starfleet Bar

We talk all the time about what it would be like to live in the utopia that is the Star Trek universe. The opposite is less spoken of - what about dying in Trek? Today we're sitting down to discuss various deaths in Star Trek, death rituals, and Rachel gets into their personal story. Let's do it:


Where do you go when you die in space?
Humans are failed primates
Assisted suicide

Everyone's got them, you can spread them, and they're kinda gross. That's right, today we're talking about feelings. We're looking at those in Trek who have feelings and those who don't. Maybe even delving into our own feelings a bit. Okay, gross. Let's just get into it.


Mental health/care in Starfleet
Social norms vs. emotions
Emotional intelligence
Is Star Trek a show about love?

While the #IATSE strike is still tentatively taking place, we're disconnecting our streaming services and talking about some more offline media. In this case, Amy is bringing out an erotic Star Trek novel she's been reading and listening to. The audiobook is narrated by Johnathan Frakes, the actor who plays Commander William Riker in Trek. It gets weird, so make sure you don't miss this one.

Star Trek brings us the future we want to have in our real lives. Socialism, technology, the whole nine yards. But where does Trek, or our current reality, fall short? Today we're sitting down with our friend Troy, to talk all things Artificial Intelligence. Listen as we get into:


Where do we see AI in Trek?
How does AI in Trek and real life fall short of perfect?
Human advantages over AI and computers
