A little something I whipped up for the convention circuit…
Be sure to join us on the Fall convention circuit. We are at TopCon, Sept. 18 – 20, Slash & Bash, Sept. 25 & 26, and Time Eddy, Oct. 2 – 4 (in Wichita). If you are going to any of these cons, and you see us, say hi!
Enjoy!
No disasters to delay us this week. In this podcast we discuss the recently released prequel to Doctor Who Series 9. Things kick off in a reather mysterious way with the Doctor returning to Karn and visiting with a familiar face, Ohila.
Then, we discuss the two-part season finale of the first year of the Doctor Who – Eight Doctor audios from big finish. We discuss the revelations and machination therein.
Plus there’s new Torchwood news to study and discuss with another announcement from Big Finish.
And, of course… oh, wait, no feedback this week.
Well, enjoy anyway!

Whew! After some tense moments this week, we are finally able to bring you this week’s show. Following a few computer crashes, recovery of files, recording of some new ones, and a bit of editing wizardry, another podcast is in the books. This week, we surmount the curse and bring you our review of the Third Doctor’s final story, Planet of the Spiders. We share our opinions of the end of an era for the show. And be sure to stick around after the credits for a special piece by Dr. Phil of the Adventures in Time Space and Music podcast as he explores some of the music of Planet of the Spiders.
Also, we give our impressions of the recently released trailer for the first story in Series 9, The Magician’s Apprentice. We also chat about the announcement that River Song will return in time for Christmas, and more in the ongoing saga of the release of the Second Doctor story, The Underwater Menace to DVD.
And, of course, your feedback.
Enjoy!
