See this content in the original post

Although we’ve covered polyamory in media before, this time, we’re specifically focusing on representation in science fiction with Kevin Patterson, author of the For Hire novel series and a member of the Philadelphia polyamory community.

Throughout this episode, we’re exploring books (including comic books!), movies, TV shows, and video games, including polyamorous representation and discussion in:

  • Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein

  • The Broken Earth trilogy by N.K. Jemisin

  • The Expanse

  • Marvel’s X-Men

  • DC’s Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy

  • Steven Universe

  • Futurama

  • Star Trek Enterprise

  • Sense8

  • Mass Effect

  • Fallout

Give the full episode a listen to hear what we have to say about polyamorous representation in the above media. Additionally, Kevin reads from his book Operator, the first book in his For Hire series, which also includes its own themes of polyamory.
