Binary System Podcast #491 – Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover

It’s a good thing Kathryn watched the Star Trek Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover this week, mostly because now we can talk about how awesome it is that the actors who voiced the animated characters got to play the live-action versions in an episode that was equal parts heartwarming and freaking hilarious. But it’s also

Review: Through Gates of Garnet and Gold (Wayward Children Book 11)

Much like the Doors themselves, Eleanor’s rules were simple and absolute: No solicitation. No visitors. No quests. Nancy was one of the first Wayward Children we were introduced to in Book One of Seanan McGuire’s series, and also one of the first to find her way back to the world that Eleanor West’s school was

Binary System Podcast #490 – Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery

“Hee. Moriarty throwing a paper airplane at a very angsty Hawkeye. I’ll be in my bunk.” Yay, we actually watched something we planned to watch! What…no, not Weapons. And not Nosferatu either.

Review: A Mouthful of Dust (The Singing Hills Cycle Book 6)

Where there was hunger, there was desperation, and eventually, the belly cried louder than the children, or the elderly, or the dead. For a series that stars a gender-neutral cleric and their sassy neixin companion (bird-shaped, but most definitely not a bird, don’t be rude), Nghi Vo’s Singing Hills series can get surprisingly dark.

Binary System Podcast #489 – Star Trek: Lower Decks, the final two episodes

The last two episodes of the final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks had everything: fantastic stunt casting, a squad of Harry Kims, mountains of technobabble, a version of Mariner who knows very little about jailbreaks, and Jack Quaid doing his best freaked-out screams. We LOVED it. Listen in as we spoil everything, miss most
