  • Hard Time
    Jun 30 2026

    The one where O'Brien suffers again.

    Hello, and welcome to another episode of Space Crime Continuum, the Star Trek podcast that asks the question: Do we really need to combine true crime and Star Trek?

    This week's episode is a dark one, so listener discretion is advised. We'll be discussing themes of suicide and self-harm.

    This week, we're covering the Deep Space Nine episode "Hard Time," where Chief O'Brien is accused of espionage and sentenced to what he believes is 20 years in prison. In reality, only a few hours have passed, but the psychological effects of his imprisonment follow him back to the station, making for one of the series' most intense and emotional stories.

    Join Haley and me as we discuss this unforgettable episode alongside the real-life Canadian story of how the prison system failed a young woman.

    Jun 9 2026

    The one where Tendi's love for ice causes trouble.

    Welcome to jury duty listeners, Haley and Sara are finally back with a new episode of Space Crime Continuum, and this time we're animated! That's right, we're having a chat about the Lower Decks season 1 episode... Veritas, a classic Trek trial episode, or is it? Not only that, but on this episode Sara introduces a new segment! Her desperate attempt to lure Haley into watching DS9! season by season I'm asking silly questions and giving an overview of one of the greatest Trek shows.


    Not only that but we do our usual chat, the trek purchases i've been making on ebay, what we're eating for dinner (because who doesn't want to know that?) and more! so tune in, zone out and enjoy this episode of Space Crime Continuum. Don't hesitate to follow along for updates on bluesky. VanIslandSara.bsky.social

  • A Matter of Perspective
    Mar 20 2026

    The one with the he said, she said vibes.

    We are back! Welcome to episode 5 of the Space Crime Continuum, the inconsistent semi true-crime Trek podcast that leaves listeners frustrated but amused, or so we hope. This is episode 5 where we discuss TNG Season 3 winner, A Matter of Perspective. A classic he said/she said story where Riker is accused of peacocking, murder, bad pickup lines and just a bunch of bad stuff. But did he do it? Was it the wife? Was it the husband? WAS IT A MALFUNCTIONING DATA? if you don't know, don't worry, we'll walk you through it.
    We also catch up on some life, talk a little baseball, discuss a show we love called The Pitt and pose questions to each other on how we'd navigate the hellscape Riker faces. All that and more on this episode of Space Crime Continuum... dun dun.

    The one with horrible people doing horrible things

    Hello Space Crime enthusiasts and welcome to episode 3 of Space Crime Continuum.

    This week Haley and I have a real depressing line up of vile humans to discuss and share with you after we do a breakdown of Star Trek Voyager Episode 18 from Season 4, the Killing Game. Listener discretion is advised for sure.
    But that's not all, of course not... because suddenly this podcast is predominately about...Baseball? You know it, it's the world series baby, and of course we got some things to say about it and our Toronto Blue Jays. So tune in and have a listen and stay safe out there!
