Dec 03 2024 57 mins

Well, if you have "Rock Lobster" by The B-52s stuck in your head now, you're welcome. Because this time we review The Fires of Pompeii! Guest stars of future past, the world through Donna's eyes, and a wicked twist to the choice the Doctor has to make that we pretty much had forgotten about! Join us, won't you?

Phenomena City Limits S01E11 - The Life of Riley OR Mr. Crabb's Wild Ride

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

Podcastica Episode 324: Vote Smith and Jones 2024

Nov 05 2024 55 mins

Friends, have you voted yet? Do you perhaps need something to keep you company while you wait in line? Or maybe something to prevent you from doomscrolling your way through the day? Well, then let us offer you about an hour's respite from the election with our review of Smith and Jones (who, frankly, we'd definitely vote for!).

Phenomena City Limits S01E10 - Rosicrucian Memories OR The Cosmic Ray Coincidence Counter

Oct 31 2024 54 mins

This month we're taking a look at the Rosicrucians! Not the AMORC order itself, but recounting what it was like to grow up essentially in the shadow of their museum and headquarters in San Jose, California! Yep, your hosts lived a small handful of blocks from this unusual property in the heart of Silicon Valley! Perhaps we'll discover just how much influence it held in our paranorm

Talk à Deux - S3E15: Even More Gratitude!

Oct 23 2024 60 mins

Hello! One Talk à Deux coming up straight out of the oven hot and fresh just for you! We express our bi-monthly gratitude at the everyday wonders around us and prepare to segue for our lives in the next episode! Our art is by @ManOverMars and our intro and outro music is Dansez by the band Fasions. We're a proud member of the Night of the Living Geeks network of podcasts, feel fr

Podcastica Episode 323: New Earth OR Bouncy Castle Living

Oct 22 2024 54 mins

Well, here's something new for your week...our review of New Earth! We'll spare you all the superfluous "New"s and instead point out that we forgot how solid this story was. It's one part Freaky Friday and two parts Night of the Living Dead! Also, don't forget to vote! That's super important that you do that. Because our next episode will literally land on Election Day!

Talk à Deux - S3E14: Culture Club: Beetlejuice

Oct 09 2024 75 mins

We're talking about 1988's Beetlejuice in this culture club episode because the sequel came out only a month ago, and only a month after we recorded it! We talk about unpopular truths and I'm pretty sure I'm right (Hi, I [Nick] edited this one so it's me writing the description, how are you?) about which hand the Statue of Liberty is holding her torch in but while editing I had a c

Podcastica Episode 322: The Parting of the Ways OR Dalek Harvest Festival

Oct 08 2024 53 mins

Naturally, we had to follow Bad Wolf with The Parting of the Ways! We look back at the first season finale of Modern Who and remember what it was like to experience this all for the first time, what a bigger surprise it would have been if we didn't know a regeneration was coming, and how the effects hold up halfway decently for an almost 20 year old story!
