  • 170: Death at a Funeral (Father’s Day)

    Did you know that weddings might as well be funerals?

    It’s our first seasonal special episode! Just kidding, we released a few episodes back in the day on Christmas/New Years, not that we marketed those as holiday specials. Also this isn’t really a holiday special, it’s just about an episode called Father’s Day. It was written by Paul Cornell and aired on May 14, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    2:14 This is the same Nathan from Flight Through Entirety, right?
    6:45 Death at a Funeral. Never knew it was a remake of this British movie.
    39:38 2007. Just trust me.

  • Alien Resurrection

    Stone, the womb from which man was born. I think.

    Time to round out the original Alien quadrilogy with everybody’s favorite Alien movie, Alien Arrival. The 2016 one. Just kidding, I don’t think we’d survive that ordeal. It’s Alien: Resurrection written by Joss Whedon, directed by Jean–Pierre Jeunet and released on November 26, 1997.

    Show-notes:


    3:07 Hahahaha
    15:04 Jayne is a girls’ name.
    19:55 Hellboy from the Hellboy franchise.
    23:39 Room?

  • 169: These Walls Aren’t Gold (The Long Game)

    Anybody got some gold I can use?

    Back to the Future this week, we’re on a satellite that broadcasts all of the news. Might be a bad idea to give a single satellite an effective monopoly over the news that everybody consumes, but what do I know? It’s The Long Game, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on May 7, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    18:00.
    20:45 Here’s what else Simon Pegg has been in if anyone cares.
    26:44 The Reavers.
    49:06 Walter Johnson’s chattel principle in his book (paper?) Soul by Soul. He didn’t come up with the term “chattel principle,” he just took it from some slave narrative from the 1800s I think, but he used it to define what he’s talking about in his book. Also I’m pretty sure Walter Johnson is a historian.
    49:49 Harriet Jacobs’ Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl was the first (or at least one of the very first) slave narratives written by a woman.

  • 168: Black Spray-painted Contraption of PVC Pipe (Dalek)

    Every single prop is made of PVC.

    It only took 5 weeks, but this week we’re cashing in on the most popular Doctor Who villain ever created. We probably could have held out longer, but we need people to listen. It’s Dalek, written by Robert Shearman and aired on April 30, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    6:09 Sounds like this.
    6:58 Nah.
    7:41 Cover. Remix. Whatever. Original. “New.” Whatever.
    7:56 Johnny Cash’s Hurt. What an awful video.
    23:24 It’s Clive Finch. Not Craig Owen, that’s someone else that’s still forthcoming.
    32:38 Wouldn’t it be nice?

  • 167: The Famous London Marsh (Aliens of London & World War Three)

    Really looking forward to when they bring that back.

    This week we return to contemporary London. Well, we did return to contemporary London which is now past London. I think. I don’t remember Big Ben getting taken out by an alien spaceship, but to be fair maybe American didn’t report on that. It’s Aliens of London and World War Three, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on the 16th and 23rd of April, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    20:10 Probably cleaner and more safe than most of the meat produced in the US.
    32:06 It’s probably not true, but according to this clickbait-style article, the doors to the cabinet room are soundproof and the front door is actually reinforced steel and not wood.
    39:03 Yeah, it’s 18. Trust me. I just checked.
    39:47 The Ferengi from Star Trek. No “funny” comment cause I don’t know anything about Star Trek.
    41:12 Yeah, that was the motivation of the aliens in Battle Los Angeles, but it looks like that movie wasn’t that recent.
    43:47 Based on this, people who aren’t there probably don’t get to vote.
    51:51 Yeah, shepherd’s pie is actually minced shepherd meat cooked into a pie. Apparently it’s become a rare delicacy now that the number of shepherd’s has dramatically decreased.

  • 166: Strangulation by Dead Grandmother (The Unquiet Dead)

    You shouldn’t be surprised, just because she’s dead doesn’t mean she can’t kill you.

    This week it turns out the world actually wasn’t blown up last week. So we had to drag ourselves to the off…garage to record a new episode of Trust Your Doctor. This week it’s The Unquiet Dead, written by Mark Gatiss and aired on April 9, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    10:26 Christmas Carol can be read here.
    18:54 Or if you like longer Dickens stories you can read Martin Chuzzlewit.
    26:45 I strongly suggest you don’t read The Fantastic Imagination by George MacDonald.
    35:22 Or if you like unfinished Dickens stories, you can read The Mystery of Edwin Drood.

  • Alien, Aliens, Alien 3

    Don’t know how I did that, considering we set aside like 9 hours to watch these.

    This month we delve into a science fiction classic. No not Star Wars. No not Back to the Future. No not… ok you get the point. It’s Alien, Ridley Scott’s seminal sci-fi horror classic. We also watched Aliens and Alien 3, because this is a trilogy podcast and we needed three movies. Yes we know there’s a fourth one, get over it.

    Show-notes:


    2:22 Here’s that concept art for Neil Blomkamp’s Alien 5.
    0:48 Yeah. This rogue Geiger counter did all the work designing the Alien for them.
    5:55 Oh boy, just what everybody wanted.
    9:43 The Statement of Randolph Carter
    12:28 The Alien and Sedition Acts were passed in 1798, so Dylan got two digits correct. Close enough.
    13:08 Check out the Nostromo’s blueprints and some other “neat” stuff here.
    14:24 These were the guys who made the chain mail for Lord of the Rings.
    15:10 Don’t worry Yaphet, I believe you.
    21:25 The chestbuster scene is pretty iconic.
    24:08 A brief overview of the making and release of Aliens.
    35:25 Neuromancer
    39:06 Unfortunately the communist vs capitalism theme also fell apart when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.
    44:40 The world’s most popular man, David Fincher.

  • 165: There’s a Sun!?! (The End of the World)

    Last week (ish) there was a solar eclipse, at which point there briefly wasn’t a sun.

    We’re sorry to report that Trust Your Doctor is ending. Turns out the Earth has been destroyed, and we were on it. Bit unfortunate that was, maybe next time we’ll try be as far away as possible when the Earth goes through a catastrophe. It’s The End of the World (as we know it) by Russell T. Davies and aired on April 2, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    1:07 AND I FEEL FINE
    8:01 Is Moxx the Max Rebo of Doctor Who?
    11:00 The original 1964 version is by Gloria Jones. Had no idea the song was that old, but the one most people know is the 1981 version by Soft Cell.
    11:15 It was a White Shade of Pale featured in Revelation of the Daleks. Also this.
    39:16 So simple even a 2 year old could figure it out. Why did they change this again?
    43:47 Episode 0. Listen to it if you have no idea what this podcast is.

  • 164: Evolve or Die (Rose)

    Let me know if there’s a secret third option. That’d be good.

    We’re on the downhill slope now. I mean, granted, this is an extremely long downhill slope that’s probably longer than the uphill section. Look, I don’t really know what the heck to call this. It’s a sideways trip. We’re moving leftwards. This week we watched Rose, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on March 26, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    3:04 Queer as Folk. According to Wikipedia the other shows Davies was famous for are Bob & Rose, The Second Coming, and a couple more, but I haven’t heard of any of them.
    4:41 And it was this.
    34:02 Spare Parts. Good audio(?) We also have an episode on it.
    53:07 Check out our newly recorded episode 0 here.

  • Special 7: The Real and Better Thirteenth Doctor (The Curse of Fatal Death)

    All I want you to know is that this is #mythirteenthdoctor.

    This week Kiyan and Dylan watch the final little expanded universe thing they’re watching before they get to the reboot. In sticking with completely invented and made up traditions they watched Stephen Moffat’s first contribution to the show. It’s the Curse of Fatal Death, aired on the 12th of March, 1999.

    Show-notes:


    1:45 It is a telethon and it was founded by Richard Curtis.
    24:14 Convenient article called Red Nose Day: What exactly is it? Unfortunately I can’t be bothered to read it, so I still don’t know.
