This week, we reflect on 400 podcast episodes, hear from some lovely listeners, and have a brilliant conversation with The Sevateem about their new project “Resurrection Part Two”.
This week, we take a glance at the non-news items (listicles, opinion articles, etc.) that tend to dominate our feed during those times when actual Doctor Who news is rather thin.
As the GPR signal winds its way into an eighth year on the Internet, Jay and Keir “discover” an early conversation (we write this in the ‘Sarcastica’ font) from the 2012 planning stages.

We’ve probably all fallen victim to it. Many of us have either inadvertently or (shamefully) explicitly done it ourselves. The issue of ‘spoilers’ are nothing new to storytelling, from publications and stagecraft, to radio broadcast, to screens large and small.
