Long-time listeners of Doctor Who Literature know that this podcast is a K-9 house. We are all about K-9 here. This week, his first TV spinoff, the Christmas 1981 special gets its own novelization, the final book of the short-lived Companions of Doctor Who line.

Joining Jason this week are two great friends making their first appearance on the show: Drew and Brent, from Who & Company. And yes, it's coincidence that they're showing up to discuss K-9 & Company.

Jason appeared on Who & Company a few months ago.

Jason has also recently been on Trap One to discuss the Celestial Toymaker Blu-ray animation and a tribute to the late William Russell.

I recommend audio clips from The Simpsons' "Kamp Krusty" and the legit banger that is the Ian Levine & Fiachra Trench K-9 & Company theme.
