Reversing Polarity

In this very urgent and timely episode of Reversed Polarity, your hosts discuss Vibes (TM), their conflicted feelings about Thasmin as two queer people on the internet, just how hard Rosie cried over Ian Chesterton's cameo, and the possible links between Taylor Swift's new album and Doctor Who (no, seriously).

Follow us on Twitter @polaritypod, on Tumblr at polaritypod.tumblr.com, e-mail us at [email protected], or tell your town crier to announce new episodes in the square. We're not fussed. Thank you very much for listening.

This episode: we really do not want to do the recap, Rosie’s GCSE in Physics does not come in handy, Aym celebrates their escape from Sontaran purgatory, and there is just no way to get through even one episode without bringing up at least three terrible films.

This episode: we inadvertently summon the Tissue Compression Eliminator into the Centenary through a series of dirty jokes, Aym discovers a fun fact about their own past, Rosie never did get round to Timelash, Tangentcast returns, and the Rani earns her place as our very evilest wife.

This episode: some shockingly lukewarm takes, we rapidly abandon the format in favour of Whovian debate, there is an honestly incredible amount of biblical discussion, Rosie has a lovely bridge to sell you, Aym's headphones declare war against them, and we are going to bed at a sensible time.

This episode: the Cybermen are masters of disguise, please listen to Spare Parts please I am BEGGING you, Aym composes a beautiful poem, Rosie honest to God rambles about Noggin the Nog, Ben is a complete fashion icon, and we would both - much like Ben - die on a hill for Polly.

This episode: Nah.

For further reading, start with Kate Orman's excellent essay 'One Of Us Is Yellow': Doctor Fu Manchu and The Talons of Weng Chiang. If you would like to read some positive reviews of this story feel free to check Letterboxd, IMDb, any issue of DWM or the Celestial Toyroom from 1974-2014, or ask your grandad. In other news, Rosie is still working through Edward Said's 'Orientalism' in preparation for the day they actually finish watching this serial (probably about 2045 at this rate).

As always, thank you for listening to Reversing Polarity! Find us on Twitter @PolarityPod, on Tumblr at polaritypod.tumblr.com, or email us at [email protected]. Episode 41 will also be released today, so try not to feel too deprived of our great takes and funny bits.

This episode: Aym makes some incredible noises, the puppet dinosaurs are perfect and good, Rosie’s eternal cold returns, we hit the podcast title reference klaxon, there is a minor kerfuffle over statistics and we ask the big question: “are the Tomorrow People cops?”.

This episode: Yet another unsurprising part of Rosie’s upbringing comes to light, Mark Strickson nails the Face Of Slight Concern, on all levels except the physical Turlough is out of the closet, we consider the fuckability of Harry Sullivan, folk horror gets brought up AGAIN, and Aym confesses to covetous behaviour.

Wow, people really do make zines! Join us as we welcome special guest Katherine Wheeler to discuss zine culture, her most controversial Doctor Who take, curative versus transformative fandom, our love for Sacha Dhawan and, of course, her new zine: Around the Universe's Worst Planet in 77 Years! CW for discussion of (our dislike for) John Barrowman

Find Katherine on Twitter @wheelofkats, and the 77 Years zine @77YearsZine (appropriately). Pre-orders should be opening soon! Follow this podcast on Twitter @polaritypod or on Tumblr at polaritypod.tumblr.com. Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! PEOPLE MAKE ZINES, BABY!

This episode: Aym hits a bingo square early, both hosts were in a big WWDITs phase and it shows, we discuss our ultimate modern Sontaran story, Sarah Jane’s commitment to the bit is disappointing, there is some extremely timely discussion of Flux, and Rosie (sort of) wins a long-running argument.
