March 19, 2024 Beyond the Wind Door - Music with Maureen pt. 1
Look, its not a great title. But it's what I came up with.
Lacking other side content to share, I decided to try something new: discussing favorite music with my wife. Songs from the long ago 70's and 80's, to far more current media. You'll probably note some through lines running throughout as we talk about what these songs mean to us (links to relevant music videos). For this week:
Paul Simon - Boy In The Bubble:

Simon and Garfunkel - I Am A Rock
Sara Barellies - Armor

February 24, 2024 Beyond the Wind Door - The 14th Doctor Specials, Part 2
Out of the Wind Door and into the Wide Blue Yonder...
Or wait, no, we're actually covering The Giggle this time. But really, here is part 2 of a discussion on Doctor Who's 60th anniversary specials, so discussion and spoilers covering The Star Beast, Wild Blue Yonder, and The Giggle. And listen to the end for a hell of a plot twist! Special guest stars Kevin Veighey and Jesse Ferguson!

February 10, 2024 Beyond The Wind Door - The Answer
An essay I wrote in 2019, after interviewing Alex and Sharon for Steamheart. The first creative writing I'd done in a while. And needed practice for the podcast I would eventually do with Toby.
The essay now includes Music and an epilogue to my personal little story. Spoilers for certain story elements of The Good Place, but specifically for Season 4, episode 9 of that show.

Midroll is "Clean Soul" by Kevin McLeod
Outro is "Answer" by Sarah McLachlan

February 10, 2024 Behind The Whitescarves - The First Interview, Part 2
Here's the rest of it and it's extra long. But only slightly because of what I added.
As before, spoilers not just for Steamheart, but for all New Century books released by 2019, including and especially The Princess Thieves.
It's amazing to think so much started here. Enjoy.

February 04, 2024 Beyond the Wind Door - The 14th Doctor Specials, Part 1
This Wind Door once more opens next to a TARDIS! Lacking his Real Life Doctor companion, Greg invites Kevin Veighey back to Dish on the Doctor, plus time travel expert Jesse Fergusson to be our foil!
Today we cover The Star Beast and Wild Blue Yonder, though there will be discussion of overarching themes of all three 14th Doctor Specials, so expect potential spoilers for all! Allon-sy!

January 25, 2024 Behind The Whitescarves - The First Interview, Part 1
Late 2019, Alex was making the post Steamheart materials after the release of the final episode of the audiodrama. Then he had a banger of an idea: why not ask two fans to interview them instead of just doing content with the cast?
Little did he know what he started.
4 years later, I rerelease these interviews that began with me and Toby and our crappy mics. Complete with added editorials from me, reflecting on how those old interviews sound now, and reflections on what we did and what's to come.
Spoiler warning: We discuss several aspects of all of Phase 1, including elements from The Princess Thieves, which we have not yet covered in the Retrospective. This Warn You.
Enjoy!
