Fire, Retire, Admire
It’s game night in the GPR studio, and we’re taking trios of Doctor Who characters to decide who stays, who goes, and who gets burned from the record.
A long-running Doctor Who fandom podcast aimed at open and positive discussion.
It’s game night in the GPR studio, and we’re taking trios of Doctor Who characters to decide who stays, who goes, and who gets burned from the record.
In a new adaptation of our bluffing-based “Two Whos and a Lie” game, we try and stump one another by hiding a complete falsehood among a trio of Doctor Who rumors past and present. It proves a lot more challenging that we expected to suss out the culprit.
With glasses in hand, and a rule set developed by you wonderful listeners, we celebrate our 350th episode with a live commentary of “The Woman Who Fell to Earth”…and obligatory shenanigans.
In most instances, we love skipping over, blocking, or otherwise avoiding advertisements…but would that change if the product being promoted — or personality doing the endorsement — was more Whovian?
With Keir out of town on official (cough cough — DragonCon — cough cough) business, Jay and Haley set out to prove that they’re perfectly capable of playing a Whovian trivia game. This time, instead of naming the character who uttered a particular quotable line, they try and identify the specific episode it came from.
Power, Genesis, Asylum, Master Plan, Invasion…five decades of Dalek mayhem launches a lot of schemes for ultimate domination. What if we took a random term like “the marriage of”, and extracted a Dalek plot from it?
This week, we workshop the rules, rewards, and risks with developing a watch-along drinking game for any S11 episode. (This is what happens when we’re left without new content for too long.)
We return to one of our favorite past Whovian games, with the gracious responses by 100 of you to a series of questions about our favorite program. Some were trivia, some were opinion, all were worthwhile, and none were properly prepared for by our contestants, Haley and Jay.
On a quiet Whovian news week, we test our memory of dialogue, trying to remember which character uttered a particular statement from the modern episodes. From phrases that could easily be a number of Doctor’s regenerations, to companions that seem to make very similar observations, Keir puts on his ill-fitting gamekeeper’s hat, and puts Jay and Haley to the test.
We’ll poll 100 Whovians to get our survey results, and play the game in the next few weeks. Take your time choosing your answers, there is no “right” or “wrong” response.
