Nasty Brains and AquaNet (“Gamesters of Triskelion”)
Three podcast thralls have been selected to look back on “The Gamesters of Triskelion” - an iconic TOS episode with a lot of problematic elements when analyzed with a modern lens. We discuss the episode, how interpretations change over time, and whether core messages still hold up. And as always, we’ll watch the lights in the sky.

Black Planet: Starfleet Edition
Black Planet was one of the earliest social media sites, created in 1999, and was geared towards Black Americans. In honor of Black History Month, Aliza and Kennedy do the important historical work of figuring out what's on the Black Planet profiles of several prominent Black Star Trek characters. Doing it for the culture, of course.

Customer Reviews
Must Listen!
I started listening to this podcast when I got sick of men (mostly) complaining that women didn't like Star Trek and I went looking for proof that women (other than me) loved Trek and were talking about it!
What the Women at Warp crew talk about in each episode in thoughtful, well researched, and delightful to listen to. Thank you for doing what you're doing!
Absolutely awesome.
In depth and fun to listen to! It’s great to have more of the much needed women’s trek perspective. 😀😀😀🖖🏻🖖🏻🖖🏻
Absolutely Brilliant
Women at Warp is, without a doubt, a must-listen for anyone who considers themselves a Star Trek fan. Thoughtful, clever, and inspiring in every episode, Women at Warp demonstrates time and again that true love for a franchise means examining it for what it is.
