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.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-11T16:20:09.087342+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/federation-strike-a-journey-through-blake-s-7-7175283"},"episode":{"title":"B01: Redemption: The Liberator Fights Back","slug":"b01-redemption-the-liberator-fights-back","published_at":"2026-04-08T06:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/federation-strike-a-journey-through-blake-s-7-7175283/b01-redemption-the-liberator-fights-back","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/federation-strike-a-journey-through-blake-s-7-7175283","url":"https://federation-strike.captivate.fm/episode/b-1-redemption","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/42caf502-73bf-4297-a4a4-8c2613b23a4d.mp3","summary":"Teleporting in... welcome to Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7!
