Lucy Blueskies & Slut Trek

This week, we’re joined by the incredible Jackson Juniper (he/they) — a New York-based drag king and cosplay performer who brings sci-fi swagger and queer joy to every stage he beams onto. As the first drag king to join the crew of To Proudly Go, NYC’s nonprofit charity drag show and Star Trek viewing party, Jackson has helped open the doors for even more kings to join the mission. We chat with Jackson about his journey into cosplay drag, the magic of performing as beloved Trek characters, and why drag and Star Trek are a match made in the final frontier. Plus, we dig into queer and trans representation in the franchise, the legacy of Kirk/Spock fan fiction, and how fandom can be a powerful space for identity and transformation. It’s a glorious mix of glitter, gender, and galaxy-class geekery — don’t miss it!

Strap in and set phasers to risqué! Lucy Blueskies returns to the pod to dish all the juicy details about Slut Trek: Holodeck—the boldly burlesque Star Trek bash that beamed into Boston earlier this year. Our very own Damilan was on the ground (and maybe a little in the holosuite?) to witness the glorious chaos firsthand. We’re talking drag kings, dazzling performance art, nerdy kink, and unapologetic Trek-loving queerness. Engage, indeed.

Trek Long Island was last weekend—and we’re still riding the warp wave of joy! In this episode, we’re joined by the fabulous Leigh Ellen and Sonyl from To Proudly Go to unpack all the highlights of this queer-friendly, fan-fueled convention. From cosplay sightings to panel chatter, unexpected emotional moments, and the absolute magic of sharing space with fellow Trekkies, we dive deep into what made this con so special. Whether you were there or just wish you were, beam aboard for a heartwarming debrief filled with community, queerness, and a whole lot of Trek love.

Buckle up, Trekkies! This week, we're joined by the one and only Tyler Pilkinton — YouTuber, Starfleet enthusiast, and all-around sci-fi nerd. We dive into what makes his channel so popular, his favorite corners of the Star Trek universe, and maybe (just maybe) debate which captain reigns supreme. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just here for the warp core gossip, this episode is full of laughs, trivia, and pure Star Trek joy. Engage! 🖖✨

Boldly Going Where Lanita Really Has Never Gone Before! Special guest co-host Austin Smith beams aboard as we join Lanita—who's never seen Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. (Yes, the one where they literally go looking for God.) Strap in as we journey to the center of the galaxy, climb a mountain or two, and take in Lanita’s unfiltered reactions to space campfire songs, rogue Vulcans, and philosophical deep dives. It’s part sci-fi, part spiritual quest, and 100% Shatner. 🖖✨

Boldly Going Where Lanita Has Never Gone Before! Special guest co-host Matthew Jennings beams aboard as we sit down with the one and only Lanita—who's never seen Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. (Yes, the one with the whales.) Join us as we explore time-traveling starships, 1980s San Francisco, and Lanita's completely unfiltered first impressions. It’s part sci-fi, part comedy, and 100% whale song. 🖖🐋
