Welcome to Jumping Puddles, an all female hosted, multinational Stargate Atlantis rewatch podcast, with a fannish twist! Join 3 internet friends (Ash, Sam, and Tor) each week as they jump a puddle back to Pegasus and discuss all things Atlantis. In-depth character analysis, fandom history, fanfiction… nothing is off limits!
Join the team (Ash, Sam and Tor) for our inaugural Stargate media tie in novel episode! We discuss all things Reliquary by Martha Wells: how well she captures the essence of Stargate and it's characters, and how the medium can be used to enhance canon.
