Now that we've said goodbye to the 13th Doctor and reminisced about some favourite moments, it's time for a more comprehensive retrospective. Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we discuss the Chibnall-Whittaker era as a whole. We talk about what we liked, what we didn't as much, what held together, and we even learn a little bit about ourselves along the way! How did you feel about the era as a whole? Drop us a tweet or let us know in the comments! Happy things:  Liz wrote a Big Finish play called Capture the Chronovore! Erika named her new Gamma World Total Party Kill characters after deep-dive Doctor Who references! Deb is thrilled to see Doctor Who back in the news again from a new logo to a new distributor, a new Doctor doing amazing promo! Lynne is profoundly grateful for the community support for her, Michael, and Caitlin as they plan for Cait's end-of-life care.  ^E Hammer House of Podcast "Transmission" from The Doctor early in the pandemic Extra-special thanks to this week's editor, Steven Schapansky of Castria!

Join Deb, Erika, Kat, Liz, Lynne, and Tansy as we all look back at the last 10 years and share some general hopes for the future! We also chat about the trailer for the Tennant-and-Tate 60th anniversary specials. Much excitement and many feels all around! Yes, that's right, Verity! will be taking a hiatus and making some changes, so think of this ep as the speech at the end of "Survival", but with the knowledge that the show WILL come back again -- and a lot sooner than Doctor Who did in the 80s/90s! Many many thanks for listening, whether you've been with us since 2013, picked up somewhere since then, or are joining us right now! We appreciate the community that has built itself up around us, and we're excited to regenerate into the next version of Verity! to keep bringing you thoughts and feelings about Doctor Who for a good long while to come! ^E Extra-special thanks to this week's editor, Steven Schapansky of Castria!
