On another deep dive into New Who, we're joined by Jake from the MarriedToWho podcast to discuss Martha Jones!
We discuss her journey and development, her Big Finish appearance, and which episodes we'd recommend,
And it becomes our most tangential episode yet, we also cover Derek Jacobi and his Big Finish career, working with customers, and (of course) other companions,
We also briefly touch on the current allegations surrounding certain Who actors,
(Due to some technical dificulties, the very start of our introduction is missing, hopefully this doesn't affect your enjoyment of the episode!)
Thank you again to Jake, please check out MarriedToWho!
Next time, Romana I!
In our first deep dive into Big Finish, we explore the adventures of 1960s banker Oliver Harper, and the trilogy covering his journey with Steven and the First Doctor
We discuss the nicheness of Oliver, the comedy of Tom Allen, and (again) other companions!
As this is a Big Finish original companion, we spoil all three stories, but in case you want to avoid them, or have only heard certain episodes, here are the times to skip:
The Perpetual Bond 13:14 - 26:41
The Cold Equations 26:41 - 40:51
The First Wave 40:51 - 56:03
Next time, our first guest!
We jump into the '70s with a discussion about Liz Shaw, exploring her short time with the Third Doctor, trying to avoid spoiling her Big Finish adventures, and debating quite how underrated she really is
We also dip into Who novels, get sidetracked by discussing actors (again), and reveal a new approach to our quizzes,
Next time, our first Big Finish original companion, Oliver Harper!
On our first deep dive into New Who, we explore Rose Tyler's adventures in the TARDIS and beyond, court controversy with our opinions, ramble on as much as usual, and somehow avoid discussing her time as the Bad Wolf,
We also hint at what's to come, reveal our next Big Finish Listen, and announce our biggest Quiz to date!
(If you want to join our Listen of The Endless Night, it is available as a free download via DWM until the end of April)

Next time, we're going into the '70s with Liz Shaw!
Welcome to our most rambling episode yet, we discuss Ben Jackson, his travels with both the First and Second Doctors, on tv, audio, and novels,
We also cover other companions, psycho-analysis, the divisiveness of characters, and how to get a hold on a companion with only one full story
We also announce the prize for our Ben quiz, and which Big Finish audios we've chosen for our next Listen
(Apologies for the background noise during part of this episode, hopefully it won't affect your enjoyment!)
Next time, Rose Tyler! (It'll be a big one!)
On our first deep dive, we explore the adventures of Susan Foreman, discussing her time in the TARDIS, both on TV and in Big Finish, as well as her life after her travels with the Doctor,
We also ramble on about other companions, typecasting, and Cult TV in the first of our many tangents,
And we announce out first Quiz and Big Finish Listen!
