June 27, 2022 Talks to Mark McManus about his choice of Death to the Daleks (2/4)
Joe & Mark; dissecting their (very different) styles of podcasting! More great atmosphere, bizarre music, loud Daleks, machine guns, sacrifices, hoover attachments and great costumes. We’re high on the positives of this story.

June 25, 2022 Talks to Mark McManus about his choice of Death to the Daleks (1/4)
Joe & Mark; in nostalgic heaven! We have absolute affection for this four part adventure, with a chilling first episode that is dripping in atmosphere. The third Doctor and Sarah is given some consideration too.

June 24, 2022 Talks to Steven Alexander about his choice of Four to Doomsday (4/4)
Joe & Steven; monopolising (or monoptoconising) the pool! Time to bring this classic to close; but does the plot make ANY sense? Can we make sense of this trash? Can Steven insult anyone else? And can they survive this comedy as friends?
38 min
June 21, 2022 Talks to Steven Alexander about his choice of Four to Doomsday (3/4)
Joe & Steve; slightly hysterical as their tussle over Four to Doomsday reaches its penultimate episode. We might have different opinions but we are loving pulling this story apart. Get out of the pool!

June 19, 2022 Talks to Steven Alexander about his choice of Four to Doomsday (2/4)
Joe & Steven; remember @stealexanderuk! No stone is left unturned as we lock horns over this classic; Tegan’s tantrums, unexpected trainers, macho Adric, weak direction, marvellous Monoptocons…

June 16, 2022 Talks to Steven Alexander about his choice of Four to Doomsday (1/4)
Joe & Steve; having an absolute riot in the flesh time! No stone goes unturned as Steve fights for this story’s rights; the sets, the direction, the regulars, the big frogs, the stupid title, Kato…this is only the beginning!

June 15, 2022 Talks to Gary Russell about his choice of The Sensorites (6/6)
Joe & Gary; and the tables have turned! Joe interviewed! A discussion that has spanned the multi media universe of Doctor Who comes to a close with a very touching tribute to a much maligned producer. And The Sensorites is defended in the wrap too.
34 min
June 13, 2022 Talks to Gary Russell (kind of) about The Sensorites (5/6)
Joe & Gary; and cows on the moon! This commentary has become a full blown interview! We turn our mind to the comic strips, more Big Finish and the importance of a good voice in drama.
29 min
June 09, 2022 Talks to Gary Russell about his choice of The Sensorites (4/6)
Joe & Gary; and at least 3.5 minutes of discussion on The Sensorites! Instead we talk about the pros and cons if bringing old monsters back, Gary’s time with Big Finish and how the Doctor never got to forget one of his best friends.
32 min
June 03, 2022 Talks to Gary Russell about his choice of The Sensorites (3/6)
Joe & Gary; screwing it up and laughing their heads off. A treatise on fandom and the impact our opinion can have, on how the quality of the picture can affect your opinion of the story & a commentary without actually watching the story.
