About this sound
Short Rich Evans clip riffing on Star Trek Discovery, popular with fans as a meme sound for sci-fi rants, nerd debates and disappointing TV plot twists online.
Rich Evans is the famously expressive RedLetterMedia personality whose exasperated rants about modern Star Trek became a meme in their own right. This seven second clip captures his signature delivery: loud, incredulous and dripping with comic frustration as he reacts to Star Trek Discovery. The audio works because his voice does all the heavy lifting, turning even a short snippet into an instant punchline. Dropped into a video or chat, it lands like a knowing groan from a fellow fan, funnier for anyone who has sat through a baffling plot twist and needed someone to yell about it.
