Season Two is here, friends!!

Was it an alien? Was it poss

Jan 02 2025 63 mins

Now that our holiday commitments are done, we're back to review the 2024 Doctor Who Christmas Special "Joy to the World"! Frankly, we loved this Moffat-penned adventure. So be prepared for us to say lots of good things about the show we love...because why would you keep watching if you don't like it? That's weird. Anyway...on with the show!!

Happy New Year, friends and listeners! It's 2025 and maybe you're just taking it easy this first day of the new year. Need something to keep you entertained?

Podcastica Episode 327: Planet of the Ood OR Under the Oodfluence

Dec 17 2024 47 mins

Something ood is afoot in the Ood Sphere! Yes, it's capitalism and exploitation come to wreck yet another civilization! Aren't we humans grand? Yes, this time we watch the wintry classic Planet of the Ood and weigh its message against the legendary, heavy-handed Orphan 55 (good news, not as heavy). And programming note: we may not be reviewing the Christmas special until about the

Dec 01 2024 55 mins

Friends, this month we take a look at the interesting life of one Riley Hansard Crabb. From his years in Hawaii and the Akualele Research Group to his time with the Borderland Science Research Association and into some of the stranger talks/books/booklets he's published. And yes, there are some Keel-ian almost Hellier-esque connections to be made. We weren't able to cover every asp

Podcastica Episode 325: The Shakespeare Code OR Hail! Hail Freedonia!

Nov 19 2024 55 mins

Well, we're clearly coming out of something of an election hangover and while there's work to be done on that front, we're also coping with a bit of Doctor Who! This time we compared The Shakespeare Code to a summer's day! And it held up pretty darn well! Not only that, but we've moved ourselves and the podcast over to Bluesky so be sure to check the show notes for our new socials!

Talk à Deux - S3E16: We Predict The FUTURE!

Nov 06 2024 59 mins

What will the world look like in the near future? A question that seemed fun and fancy free when asked and fully freighted now. But step into the future with us when we try to predict upcoming trends and, in one case, an anti-trend. It's a fun hour, leave your worries by the door they'll still be there when you leave! Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dan
