Show overview
The Gayly Planet: The Final Fronqueer | A Star Trek Podcast has been publishing since 2019, and across the 7 years since has built a catalogue of 226 episodes, alongside 57 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 240 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence, with the show now in its 7th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 51 min and 1h 18m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language TV & Film show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 1 weeks ago, with 14 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2019, with 49 episodes published. Published by Hashtag Ruthless Productions.
