Latest Podcast Episodes

Welcome to episode 139 of Geek Syndicate. Your podcast guide to the murky underbelly of Geekdom!

News: News was boring this week so we skipped it!

Week that was: V, Black Widow,Chuck, Smallville,Supernatural,Sanctuary, Girl Number 9, O-Cast,Blood The Last Vampire Riese and Batman: Lovers and Madmen.

Main:We report back on our visit to Sony and the hands on demo we were given of the Digital Comics Store and player on the PSP.

In episode 3 of the TARDIS Tavern the boys have difficulty with the new bouncer.  However, it doesn't take long for the two to settle in and order a couple of pints.  Conversation quickly turns to their favorite Doctor Who villains.  Next is a long drunken discussion about the DVD release of The Invisible Enemy. For some strange reason both Sean and Steve start to crave boiled shrimp...

So come in, order your favorite drink, sit down and enjoy the discussion as only Sean and Steve can offer.

Comments, questions, and raging hate mail are all welcome at tardistavern@gmail.com.

revisiting the past

Rather than address topics such as -- oh, wait! Why did we upload such a honking buttload file to our website in the form of Episode 1, you ask? Ah well...in the words of the late Professor Stahlman, these were teething problems, nothing more. Our team of Oompa-Loompas have worked long and hard to deliver our future Episode 3 with lower bitrate and still chock full of TARDIS-Taverny goodness. So enjoy!

Okay, then. Rather than address topics such as Matt Smith's possible portrayal of the Doctor or Steven Moffat's influence on the series, Steve and Sean get right down to brass tacks and discuss which of the Doctor's companions they'd most like to shag. As intriguing as it may sound, the answers might be surprising to those of you who are less observant.

After getting the important stuff out of the way, the gentlemen review "The Girl in the Fireplace," in which they discuss the advantages and disadvantages of pompadour heels. Not to spoil anything for you, but Steve is very comfortable with them and Sean is not.

Finally (and seriously), we encourage your feedback and comments, particular if it is critical about the content or quality of our podcast, although we are looking for positive feedback too. Pop us an email at tardistavern@gmail.com.

Steve and Sean start things rolling with the inevitable questions that arise when two fans meet: Who is your favorite Doctor?  How did you become a fan?  What are you drinking?  Ah, the joys of fandom...!

As Sean sips his red wine and Steve gulps his vodka (from a plastic tumbler, no less!) we learn which Doctor we both agree on as one of our favorites, and which Doctor we have some definite split opinions on.  And, of course, no conversation about fandom is complete without the gratuitous meandering on late-night PBS viewings in our younger years (not that we're that old, mind you).  We are sorry to report, however, that translation is unavailable for the slurring in the second half of the show.

Special acknowledgment goes to The Black Spot (from whomix.trilete.net) for The Adventurer mix used within the show.

This time around. Tony and Jo! look at The Keeper Of Traken, listen to some great viewer reviews of The Sarah Jane Adventures and boggle over lots of feedback.

Always wanted to use the word 'boggle', you know..
