About the Podcast

Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7
Federation Strike covers Blake's 7 from start to finish, with one host who knows every twist and one watching it for the first time. New episodes weekly throughout each season.
Blake's 7 is one of British television's most compelling sci-fi series. Created by Terry Nation and broadcast on the BBC from 1978 to 1981, it followed a ragtag group of rebels taking on a ruthless authoritarian government that controlled the galaxy. Gritty, morally complex and frequently brilliant.

Federation Strike covers it from start to finish. Every episode, every season, every twist. Hosting the show are Garry, watching Blake's 7 for the very first time, and Adam, a lifelong fan who has seen it all many times over. Between them, you get two very different perspectives on the same show, and that gap is where most of the fun happens.

New episodes drop weekly throughout each season.
