Stellar Firma is a improvised comedy science fiction podcast created by Tim Meredith and Ben Meredith. It is set 900 years after the Earth's death with the rise of Stellar Firma Ltd., an ambiguously moral conglomerate that builds planets for clients across the galaxy.The podcast centers around two intrepid employees: David-7, a beleaguered clone who was born a few days ago, and Trexel Geistman, a profoundly unstable Consultant who's utterly terrible at designing planets and constantly shows up late. They have a week before the next review session, where the results will determine whether or not David gets recycled.Naturally, things go horribly wrong. Hilarity Ensues.The podcast is produced by Rusty Quill and can be found on their website.See also The Magnus Archives, Rusty Quill Gaming, and The Storage Papers, three other podcasts made by Rusty Quill. In February of 2022, Rusty Quill started releasing teasers for a Patreon exclusive spinoff, Compulsory Film Appreciation, in which Hartro and I.M.O.G.E.N. watch real-life movies and discuss and analyze them from the Stellar Firma corporate perspective. | |

Too Good to be True | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_196d2598 | comment |
Too Good to be True: In Episode 70 ("Self-Assessment and Self-Advancement"), Trexel, David and Hartro are informed that they've all been promoted to work as senior executives in Stellar Firma's Department of Business Warfare. Trexel and Hartro are of course overjoyed, but David points out that the timing is quite suspicious and that there's more to it. | |

| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_1994ba0b | comment |
Gone Horribly Right: In Episode 13: "Raves And Desserts", Trexel designs a planet for the teenage son of a client to use to host wild parties. For once, Trexel does his job far too well - his weekly review in Episode 15: "Moisturiser and Measures" reveals that the party is attracting teenagers across the galaxy, some of whom are children of senior executives, with no way to stop the party short of dropping a moon on the planet. | |

Dead All Along: The series finale reveals that the mysterious Board has in fact been dead for many centuries, with representatives of the shareholders having been divided into two power blocs, preventing change from being made, and the company basically running on autopilot ever since. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Despite the generally comedic tone, the series is pretty firmly set in a Techno Dystopia. All of humanity have become permanent employees of an extremely amoral Mega-Corp, Fantastic Racism against clones is abundant and lower-ranking employees regularly get axed out of convenience or neglect, and the whole thing is controlled by an Omniscient Council of Vagueness that executes dissenters for questioning the status quo. | |

Only Sane Man: David. Most of his blunders come from not knowing much about the world on account of being two weeks old, and having those gaps in knowledge informed by Trexel. Once he starts tampering with the briefs, the planets start coming out actually decent. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Jerk | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_4782e60f | comment |
Jerk With A Heart Of Jerk: Every single time Trexel seems like he might have a moment of genuine compassion or sympathy, it's immediately followed up by an even bigger Kick the Dog moment towards David. Possibly the biggest example is the finale of season 1, where Trexel gives up the key to his beloved Cosmic Lounge in exchange for saving David's life... only to casually reveal later that he could have done so all along and that there's a better bar next to the Lounge, anyway. David doesn't take it well. | |

Reassigned to Antarctica: In Episode 41, after their failures in both planetary design and sales (as well as Hartro trying to kill them), Trexel and David are demoted to being expeditors, one of the lowliest positions in the entire Stellar Firma hierarchy which basically entails getting "suggestions" from various Stellar Firma employees and advising them best they can, assuming anyone even reads their recommendations. | |

Police Are Useless: Despite I.M.O.G.E.N.'s frequent announcements that Security has been alerted, they never actually appear. The series finale reveals that the Security department was destroyed long ago during a civil war between the company's shareholders, and this was just covered up by replacing the department with a bunch of cardboard cutouts hidden behind frosted glass, pre-recorded messages, computer-generated random memos and arrest orders and the gun walls. | |

Throw the Dog a Bone: When Trexel and David get transferred to Sales and get a new office, David finally gets some semblance of comfort in the form of a clone pod, with a proper bed, a desk and a toilet (apparently, it had been in the original room all along, but Trexel just forgot to tell him about it). David gets an even bigger one in Episode 72, when he, Trexel and Hartro have been promoted to executive level and David gets a special clone suite with a jacuzzi, a quadruple emperor size bed and, best of all, a forcefield that prevents Trexel from entering it. The new office of the Business Warfare department also has a button labeled "Trexel" which automatically opens up a hatch below Trexel and throws him out (though the next episode reveals that the button is actually for Trexel, sending him straight into Stellar Firma's central distillery). | |

Too Dumb to Fool: David is justifiably angry at the end of a design session. Trexel asks him who's made him upset, claiming he'll give them a stern talking-to. David hands Trexel a mirror, but instead of realizing the dig, Trexel doesn't recognize his own reflection and ends up punching it, getting glass all over his hand, and running into the hallway to pursue "Mirror Trexel". | |

Despair Event Horizon: David in episode 23, after he's been informed in no uncertain terms that he will be recycled. | |

Artistic License – Space | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_e6558beb | comment |
Artistic License – Space: There are entire episodes where the creators discuss their complete lack of knowledge on the subject. Half the things Trexel and David come up with aren't even technically planets. Teleporting a planet at multiple galaxies wouldn't change the strength of its gravity. Thousands of heating devices disguised as accountants wouldn't be able to warm a planet's core temperature enough to create consistently flowing creeks. | |

Clone Angst | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_e780f603 | comment |
Clone Angst: The source of the majority of David-7's suffering, as clones are a Slave Race that aren't considered sentient. Enforced In-universe; when Trexel begins questioning whether or not the treatment of clones is ethical, a gun barrel unfolds from the wall until they openly denounce the idea and proclaim their loyalty. | |

Incredibly Lame Fun | |

Incredibly Lame Fun: Apparently why Trexel hates Harry's (and by extension, all galactic bureaucrats') ideas of fun. | |

Incompetence, Inc. | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_f5ab45cb | comment |
Incompetence, Inc.: Stellar Firma comes off more and more like this as the series goes on, what with them continuing to employ Trexel despite him causing the deaths of Board knows how many people and the general lack and poor maintenance of their office corridors. In the last episode of season 2 and between-seasons supplimentary material, it turns out that the company has been neglecting several critical internal departments such as Filing, the staff of which died of old age and were never replaced. Also, when I.M.O.G.E.N.'s CPU started suffering from critical RAM shortage, she wasn't allowed to decommission some of the upper management luxurious departments, and instead shut down some smaller internal ones. I.M.O.G.E.N. even tells Trexel and David that anything for which the company can't bill clients gets downprioritized. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: In the final episode, David, left as the sole person in charge of Stellar Firma, uses his power to evacuate the company space station and send the people living on it to planets where they can start new societies. Afterwards, he has the station destroyed, essentially ending Stellar Firma and its ruthless corporatocracy, relinquishes I.M.O.G.E.N. from her role as Stellar Firma's controller and goes to Galactonium to live in peace. | |

Running Gag | |
| Stellar Firma (Podcast) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: "Warning! [X] detected." Doubles as Mad Libs Catchphrase. Trexel invariably showing up 20 minutes before the deadline. [X]. [X]? [X]. Hail the Board! Trexel's fish and his unsavory relationship with it. *bing* Cardinal Fang! | |
