nuqneH, friends!
We ate'nt dead, despite what PocketCasts tells me when I open our show page.
This has been a long time in the works, mostly because editing caused me literal pain for several months. It's a short story, but quite dull. Herniated spinal disc; lots of opiates, yet still much lying on the floor wishing for the pain to end. At least SAD thought better of showing up, so small mercies and all that.
Anyway.
I've just finished editing the episode and just now realised that I should have written down everything that I said I would link in the show notes. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Captain of the Mount by Fall On Your Sword

Spotify
The Spotify version is quite different for legal reasons iirc, so it contains zero Shat. Why am I saying that like it's a bad thing? Eh. For me though, it works best as the unhinged ramblings of someone who thinks he has artistic vision, but I'm not going to deny the folks who made the track the opportunity to earn 0.002p from a listen. But srsly, Bill? Where no man has gone before?? It's El Capitan - pure hunners have been there before! Even women! sigh
Data & Picard by that flaming heap of shite - I've linked to a video that uses the visuals that match the sampled lines from the show
YouTube
And another video about how awful Pogo is. Content warning - he's a raging bigot and uses disablism to try to cover it. The slurs are bleeped, but brace yourself. There's a lot of bleeping.
Of Romulus: YouTube and Spotify
Warp 11 (are they super-evolved salamanders?): YouTube and Spotify
The Vulcan Freedom Fighters: Horta (where this all began for me, though a newer remix) and if you want to try for a spit-take, Spunk on Spock (Pon Farr). Here's their Spotify page, too!
Saving the best? for last: The Firm, Star Trekkin'. In about 1990, my brother performed the Spock role in our local Scout and Guide Gang Show. I have no evidence, sadly. It doesn't seem to be on Spotify, sadly. The Firm, not by brother or the Gang Show from 35 years ago. There is maybe a weird kids' cover but I'm not messing up my algorithmic recommendations with that. I want to find new music I might enjoy, not torment my nephew with!
I've likely missed a bunch of stuff, but if you join our Discord (it's free! But you can give us some money if you really want to) you can ask me there.
Our Facebook page is something like Facebook.com/angeltwopodcast. I think the twitter account still exists, but I deleted my personal account as soon as I was able to download my data and there's nothing that can induce me to go back to that hellsite, sorry. We are, however, on Bluesky and while swapping between accounts is still a bit cumbersome, there are significantly fewer neo-Nazis, which is nice.
P.S. Watch Deadloch! It's nothing even remotely like Star Trek, but it's hilarious and brilliant. If you're not used to Australian humour, stick with it past episode one - it's so worth the tiny effort. It's on Amazon Prime (at least, here it is) and probably the high seas if you understandably don't want to fund the corporate behemoth that will probably destroy us all. Even if they do have Picard without putting it behind the extra Paramount+ subscription.
We're back! No, this time we mean it! Really! Really really!
In this episode, we mostly chat about why the last return didn't really happen and what we're envisioning for the future of the show. And, because it's us, also The Littlest Hobo because sure, why not?

Sadly, not 10 minutes after we finished recording, Ari's order was cancelled, and she did not get her taco.
Due to technical issues recording, there are some unavoidable weird-sounding bits. Hopefully they're not too bad, and the next time we're recording they won't happen again. That's also why there's such a lag between recording and publishing.
It's 2022 and we're in the Golden Age of Trek, so here's us chatting about stuff. And, sometimes, also Star Trek. I've listened to this at least 3 times to edit it and aside from LGBTQIA+ representation and uniform design, I couldn't tell you what else we discuss, though I do somehow remember that I said I'd link to this in the show notes (it's the Game of Thrones ratings video) and that I kept calling The Outcast The Offspring. I was sleepy and my parents are very much on my mind just now.

We have the usual social media pages; search for Angel Two podcast and that should be us. Or the Mirror Universe versions of us.
Surprise, we're out of stasis! Has much happened since the last episode?
After a long hiatus, here's AB and Fiona to talk about Trek and definitely never deviate from the topic of Trek, not even once. *cough*
The new(ish) microphone picked up E V E R Y T H I N G, so sorry about all the odd background noises. I've edited out as much as possible, but you might still hear my clock at times. Next time, we'll try to reduce that as much as possible (and AB isn't going to be allowed to so much as think about eating, I swear)!
AB's Twine game!

This is part two of our Hallowe'en bonanza! Wagon train to the stars?
Apologies for the creakiest chair in Scotland and the occasionally weird edits; it's cough season and I didn't want to hurt your poor ears. Again.

Boo!
As it's the season for surprises and jump scares, we decided to appear from nowhere to talk about seasonally-appropriate Trek episodes.
This is part one of two because we ended up choosing lots of episodes (and yet still not covering them all) so watch your feed for the rest of the discussion.
Spoilers for: Catspaw (TOS); Genesis, Frame of Mind, Schisms, Night Terrors and Sub Rosa (TNG); and The Assignment (DS9)
If you would prefer 3+ hour long podcasts in future, you can reach us through the interweb tubes (no half-spider Barclays involved! ... web? geddit? It's funny.)

Content warning: near the end of the show, when we are discussing our favourite and not-so-favourite things/characters in Discovery, Fiona makes reference to PTSD and sexualised violence. Please keep this in mind if these are difficult topics for you.

Is that your threat ganglia showing or are you just surprised to see us in your podcast subscriptions feed?
We are back, from outer space. You opened up your podcast app, with a sad look upon your face. You love our stupid show, our wit and humour are the key, and without any warning, we're back to bother thee...
In this episode we talk Chapter 1 of Star Trek: Discovery. I'm not sure how else to describe it. We have mixed feelings, and we discuss them as we generally do. There are spoilers for the first half of season 1 of Discovery, because it would be quite difficult to talk about it for an hour and not spoil anything.

Does anyone read show notes? I feel like my best work is in here. Ah well. Tweet us or like us on Facebook or follow us on Instagram. Post a photo of you revelling in the show notes and tag us on the social media and I'll send you a badge!
Greetings friends!
In this episode there is pain, there are pin badges and there is much conjecture about what Star Trek Discovery might be like. We have no more idea than you do, possibly even less because this was recorded before #STLV17 and our plan to slingshot around the Sun was somewhat hampered by our lack of a suitable vehicle. AB (was) volunteered to try it with many, many layers of tinfoil wrapped around her, but the elastic band broke before she even left orbit. Does anyone know where we can find the nuclear wessels?
As you may have come to expect from us, there's also other stuff, too.

Lookie loo, guess who?
Yes, we're back. Winter's pretty much a write-off for us, so consider this a new season of Angel Two?
Due to technical problems and possibly the worst bad mental health period I've had since the last one the time I went to hospital, this is fully a month after we recorded. And the editing is minimal. Sorry that I couldn't do a better job, but there's Women At Warp if you want something more professional sounding!
I also have no idea what's in this episode, so tweet me @angeltwopod or @hallyrackit if there's anything you think I've missed.
Thanks for sticking with us, folks! A couple of months ago, Adam Nimoy's documentary For the Love of Spock was released and as Sophie had contributed to the Kickstarter, she graciously waited until we were all together before watching it. Patience of a saint, that woman. We discuss said film and our thoughts on it and then, as we do, meander off topic a bit. AB and Fiona even disagree on something! Phasers (set to stun, we don't hate each other that much) at dawn!
To watch For the Love of Spock yourself, going to fortheloveofspock.com will get you started.
