Anika and Liz take a trip back to 1995 and the first three stories in the Talking Stick/Circle fic series by Macedon and Peg Robinson, and discuss:
- Usenet memories
- Decolonising Star Trek
- Chakotay, the significance of a Native American writer handling a Native American character, and the … notable lack thereof in the show itself
- Another round of religion in Star Trek
- “People need to understand that Chakotay/Seven was not endgame.”
- Fandom, homophobia and het that's not heteronormative
It's the episode where we look back and go, "Oh, YIKES."
