  • 157: Brutally Stabbed in the Literal Back (Silver Nemesis)

    Ow.

    This week it’s the twenty-fifth anniversary of Kennedy’s Assassination! No, that’s not right. What else happened around that time? It’s Silver Nemesis, written by Kevin Clarke and aired November and December of 1988.

    Show-notes:


    5:18 Because of this crap. Thanks people of the past. Thanks for doing this. Calculating dates is really something your descendants wanted to do.
    15:17 If you don’t already know what that is then you probably don’t want to…
    21:28 The first one is the good one. The second one is the one with the octopus face guy. The third one is the one with the ship in a desert. The fourth one is the pretty bad one. The fifth one is the one that’s not out yet. Hope that clears it up.
    34:52 Jesus… Well, at least the show has come a long way in some ways. Making a better looking costume on a tiny budget is one of those ways.
    37:25 Don’t believe me?
    37:35 Still don’t believe me?
    38:51 No.
    39:03 Check out our other podcast, Triple Play. We talk about movies and stuff. Mostly stuff. We did an episode about Star Wars. We also did like 20 other episodes about not Star Wars.

  • 156: Candy Davros (The Happiness Patrol)

    In this story Davros acts as some insane Willy Wonka knockoff.

    Are you happy? We’re happy. Definitely happy. No insane dictator holding a gun to our backs making sure we’re happy. Nope. Definitely happy. The Happiness Patrol, written by Graeme Curry and aired in November of 1988.

    Show-notes:


    1:32 The Thatcher “regime” lasted from 1979 to 1990. Apparently there’s no term limit or term of office for UK PMs, but it’s complicated.
    11:31 Learn more about that here. Or don’t. I don’t care.
    38:36 This mascot. I’ll never be able to look at this thing now without thinking that it’s some dangerous homicidal maniac that kills with a smile on its face.

  • 155: Ace-Off (Remembrance of the Daleks)

    Just like that John Travolta movie.

    This week we move into season 25. Can you believe we’ve almost finished 25 years of Doctor Who? Time wise that’s almost half of all the time it’s existed. It’s Remembrance of the Daleks, written by Ben Aaronvitch and aired in October of 1988.

    Show-notes:


    7:09 Quite possibly the most simple money system the world has ever known. Just look at this simple and easy to use chart.
    23:23 Surprisingly long Wikipedia article about this.

  • 154: The Audacity of Hope (Dragonfire)

    And the inevitable disappointment that comes after it.

    And we close out the first season of Sylvester McCoy. It’s the real McCoy. Two seasons left, and spoiler, The Seventh Doctor has a snap character change next week. It’s Dragonfire, written by Ian Briggs, aired in November and December of 1987.

    Show-notes:


    1:04 Hopefully our other podcast, Triple Play, isn’t alien to you. But if it is, check it out.
    9:56 It’s out now.
    24:21 Svalbard is part of Norway and has some of the northernmost settlements in the world. This is what it looks like in summer.
    26:13 Pinewood Derby. Pretty good episode.

  • Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five

    According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a human should be able to fly.

    This month we venture into the amazing world of 2D-3D fusion animation. I don’t think we’ve even watched something in 2D for this show yet? Well whether or not we have before, we have now, it’s Secrets of the Furious Five. It was released on November 9, 2008.

    Show-notes:


    1:03 Find another series with a worse naming scheme. Go ahead. I guarantee you can’t do it cause there isn’t one.
    9:18 Those flower things are literally part of her. Dreamworks!!! *shake fist angrily in the air*
    13:13 WAWAWAAAAAA… WA WA WAAA.
    15:16 They actually released this on an album. Still all about the Campfire Song though.
    19:47 He’s a snow leopard.

  • 153: The Power of Malcolm Krohll (Delta and the Bannermen)

    You shouldn’t mess with the power of Malcolm, it might kill you.

    This week we’re on the downslope for season 24 already. We’re already 3/4 of the way through the season, although if they had done a 6 part serial we’d be done already. Wouldn’t that be great? It’s Delta and the Bannerman, written by Malcolm Kohll, and aired in November of 1987.

    Show-notes:


    04:36 Now only a $100 value! Sure must be the happiest place on earth for whoever’s raking in all this money.
    12:00 OG version’s the best.
    30:43 Wow, 2009 camcorder-vision. Still not the stupidest answer on this show sadly.

  • Special 5: The Three Year Anniversary!

    We have anniversaries. Podcasts are built on anniversaries.

    Yes three years in, and we’re still sitting in front of a microphone every single week just to talk about some nonsense inconsequential television show from fifty years ago. Here’s a look forward for you, we won’t catch up to where the show is right now (The Return of Doctor Mysterio) until 9/22/19. Yes, 2019. We’re here for a minimum of 3 more years. You’re welcome.

    Show-notes:


    00:45 Who made this stuff up?
    1:20 You can listen to that too. Here.

    You can find us at our regular places. Be sure to follow to be updated on our “The Trust Your Doctor Full Classic Retrospectivaganza” schedule. It starts on the 23rd of April, by the way, because we record stuff a week in advance.

  • 152: Everybody Has Their Own Way of Eating People (Paradise Towers)

    Mine is lightly salted. I like to keep it simple.

    Moving swiftly through the Seventh Doctor. He only has 12 serials, so every serial we cover moves us 1/12 of the way closer to the end. That’s pretty much the quickest we’d move through any Doctor except maybe the 6th. Too lazy to do the math now. It’s Paradise Towers written by Stephen Wyatt and aired in October of 1987.

    Show-notes:


    15:43 Heeeeere’s PEX!!
    44:30 Check out our other podcast, Dribble Day.

  • 151: Bow Ties or No Ties (Time and the Rani)

    I’ll take cable ties thanks.

    This week we return to your regularly scheduled programming. Which means Pip and Jane Baker are back writing for the show, stumbling through the darkness because no one knows how the hell to characterize the 7th Doctor yet. Thanks Eric Saward/JNT/Andrew Cartmel/Whoever you want to blame for this. It’s Time and the Rani, aired in September of 1987.

    Show-notes:


    5:36 Crispin Glover, who usually goes by his alter-ego “Really Distinctive Facial Structure Man,” sued some people over some stuff.
    25:16 The “intense” sound effects at the end of this.

  • The Sixth Doctor Retrospective

    It feels like we just started this era yesterday.

    The end of an era, truly. The Sixth Doctor was here for nearly 10 seasons. Wait, you’re telling me that in this universe he only had two seasons? How did you guys cope? So you didn’t get The March of the Valeyard?  Devastation of the Daleks?  The Damnation? I can’t believe it, this really is the darkest timeline. Well, here’s the Sixth Doctor retrospective anyway, featuring an additional discussion of Spiral Scratch. Spiral Scratch was written by Gary Russell and released on the 4th of August, 2005.

    Show-notes:


    17:20 “Other voice actors: Colin Baker”
    21:08 Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency is a book by Douglas Adams. It’s kind of inspired by the Doctor Who serials he wrote, but I thought it was boring and also terrible.
    31:08 It’s The Langoliers, which is from a larger collection by Stephen King.
    48:24 Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo. Bamboo.
