A long-running Doctor Who fandom podcast aimed at open and positive discussion.
This finale was just too dense for us to let go. We watched it again (some of us have lost count at this point) and dove back into the fray for another go round. This super-sized episode is chock full of as much as we could cram into it that we didn’t get in last week. Link Dump: Jemma Redgrave on her “vow of secrecy” filming the DW 50th 50th Anniversary books coming Leave John Simm Alone! Clarence and the […]
Do you hear the Whispermen? The Whispermen are near. If you hear the Whispermen then turn away your ear. The series finale is finally hear and Whovians around the globe have suffered a collective neural meltdown. Answers were given, more questions were asked, and potato men flew through windows with burly Scottish brawlers. All in all, a terrific finale. We discuss how this episode could possibly affect the 50th anniversary, series 8, and the fandom as a whole. Join in on the […]
So I had two awesome but very different experiences this evening. After watching the series finale (by the way, AAAAAAAAHHHHHH [head asplode]) my wife and I went to the store. While there, I bumped into a few wild Whovians. Both came up to me and commented on my shirt and that got us started. Here’s where the stories differ. The first began to ask if I had watched the finale yet and asked what I thought of it. We discussed […]
The long wait is finally over. Neil Gaiman’s sophmore episode is here and we’re ready to break it down and tear into this meaty morsel. This highly anticipated episode has left a bit of a rift between die-hard Gaimanites and casual observers. Which side do you fall in? With only a few days left until the series finale, we have far more questions than answers and we’re quickly running out of time to get everything we’re hoping for, if not […]

We’ve hit the halfway point for series 7B, and it has finally taken the turn we were waiting for. We discuss the new episode penned by Neil Cross, Hide. The “right proper ghost story” finally hits our screens and we discuss the story, the implications, and the general spooky nature that it brought to us.

If you’ve been watching series 7B, you may be noticing it’s a little bit on the heavy side with nostalgia. Mentions of Susan, an adversary not seen since the third Doctor, TARDIS gadgets that are just as old, referencing the Eye of Harmony. The list is growing exponentially. With the 50th anniversary fast approaching, it’s completely understandable. This show has a history to draw on that no other show on TV can match. But the newest episode “Hide” has brought […]

After over 4 decades, the Ice Warriors are back in this weeks episode, “Cold War.” We take time to discuss this quintessential (some might say “routine”) Doctor Who Story.

You’ve heard our take on it, what’s yours? Link Dump: A brief quote by Tennant Expect Daleks, Zygons, and Cybermen […]
