…and Landing on a Poem

May 25, 2011 1 Comment

Our wonderful listener Muldwych wrote us this great poem that we wanted to share:

 

Traveling the Vortex and landing on a Poem

It’s about Doctor Who, and its very bow tie,
If you like your Sci-fi, then you should definitely drop by.
Three guys in Kansas, who host the show,
Called ‘Traveling the Vortex’, which started 5 months ago.

‘Dun-Dun-Dun’, you will hear from Shaun,
After the Synopsis from Keith, before 10 minutes have even gone.
A life long Who fan; Glenn knows his stuff,
Doctor Who and Star Wars, he just can’t get enough.

Recorded every week for your listening treat,
I’m their number one fan, I refuse to accept defeat.
Others are claiming this not to be true,
To them I am saying, ‘Get to the back of the queue!’.

The podcast is fun and a really good laugh,
I’ve been mentioned so many times now, I almost feel like staff.
Check out their show as it really is great,
I’ve heard a lot podcasts and this one I really rate.

Enough of my gushing, compliments and praise,
Just listen to the show; it’s out every seven days.
I’ll stop sounding like their PR man, or little lap dog,
And tell you I am Muldwych from The Time Meddler Blog.

Thanks Muldwych!
Don’t forget to check out the Time Meddler Blog!

This week we are asking you to vote on which of the Doctor’s adversaries we should go back and review next. Let us know what you think in the poll on the right hand side of the page.

UPDATE – Three votes so far, and they are canceling each other out. Interestingly enough, no votes yet for The Master, who is probably The Doctors most famous adversary only second to the Daleks. Keep the votes coming!
