An Alien In America
Gallifrey Public Radio - A Doctor Who PodcastThe Doctor has the means and the desire to see the countless wonders of the Universe, from the epicenter of the Big Bang, to the outermost edges. With virtually infinite possible destinations, he certainly spends a lot of time on Earth, doesn't he? Perhaps that's just because we're only privy to those adventures that brush upon our short, planetary-bound lives. Focus the lens a little further, and many of those Terran travels are right within the United Kingdom -- again, for obvious "eye of the beholder" reasons. So is there something to be said for the rising frequency of instances where the Galavanting Gallifreyan steps across the pond to the land of baseball, cheeseburger doughnuts, and ten-gallon hats? This week, on the heels of Independence Day in the United States, we look at the scenes, episodes, and complete stories where the Doctor has visited America in person. We discuss the rationale behind the infrequency of these occurrences in "classic" Doctor Who, the relative increase since the 2005 series revival, the choices of those locations and times used in both, and what this may imply regarding the producers' intent to capture audience. (Oh, and we crack wise a bit about Southern accents, because it's easy to pick on Jay.)

The rusted chains of prison moons
Who's He?This week the lads turn their attention to the Mark Gatiss story The Crimson Horror, the latest in this series of Doctor Who. What will they make of this Victorian romp in deepest, darkest Yorkshire with corpses in the canal and the return of the Paternoster Gang? One thing is for sure though, Paul is Mister Grumpy this week which makes a nice change from Phil!
And in the news this week, a brief summing up of the Who's He? Podcast's trip to the BFI to see The Caves of Androzani, the UK's Doctor Who DVD roster for the remainder of the year, the return of Omega's Tat Corner and a chance for Phil to let rip on those who think fans are being short changed with their percieved lack of Doctor Who content for the 50th Anniversary.

Bigger on the Inside - Episode 116
Bigger on the InsideThe Doctor must unravel the mystery of a man claiming to be The Doctor, all while stopping the Cybermen from destroying London in 1851 ("The Next Doctor"). Then, a pleasant bus ride turns into a nightmare when a hole in space threatens the Earth ("Planet of the Dead"). Dan and Mike also discuss two Doctor Who shorts: "Music of the Spheres" and a segment from Tonight's the Night. The guys read through lots of e-mails, bemoan poor special effects and costumes, and sort of disagree about one of the stories. Also, Mike makes a call for donations.

GSN PODCAST: Scrolls V.2, Chapter 1: New Beginnings
Geek SyndicateScrolls is dead. Long live Scrolls!We've had a hell of a lot of fun burbling away about various topics over the last three years, but its time for a fresh start. The gang are all here still, and the focus of the podcast remains on our favourite genres of books but we've shifted format in an effort to become more listener friendly and provide you with more books worth reading. What does that mean? In a nutshell, we've split the programme into segments and gone out of our way to get contributions from a much wider group of people. Some features will be regular, others will drop in and out as the mood takes us, but our ever constant guide will be the love of and discussion about books. And cake. Obviously.
This first episode kicks off with a general round up of what we're Reading Right Now, including input from our Twitter followers. You can use the hash-tag #RRNow to contribute to this infrequent but ongoing conversation. It doesn't have to be an essay, just let us know what you're reading, who it's by and why you think other listeners would like to read it. Alternatively, if you'd like to submit a longer review, send it to scrolls@hotmail.co.uk and we'll read it out.
Next up is the Author Interview, in which Phil talks with dark fantasist and environmental horror supremo Joseph D'Lacey about his career - past, present and future. If you have an author you would like us to interview in the future, e-mail your suggestions to scrolls@hotmail.co.uk and we'll see what we can do.
We then unveil the results of our first Flash Fiction competition - a monthly challenge open to all-comers. The best three entries are read out, we discuss their merits and choose a winner. Listen out also for next month's challenge. Your deadline will be 8:30 pm, Thursday 16th May. The top three will be published on the Geek Syndicate website each month and the winner will receive a book. Need your fix more regularly? Pop along to Thrills, Kills 'n' Chaos or join Colleen Foley at the Prediction for weekly Flash fun.
After setting the next month's challenge, it's Author's Delight. Wolfblood creator and novelist Debbie Moon joins us briefly to share one of her all-time favourite reads. This will be another regular feature, highlighting the books that authors rate most highly. Next Episode we'll be joined by Adam Christopher. Any other authors out there who want to take part in future episodes, just e-mail us at scrolls@hotmail.co.uk or tweet @Dion_Scrolls
We wrap things up with The Big Debate. The team settle down to chew over the toughest of topics and try to get each other to swallow their arguments. It may be an exercise in futility, but we love wrangling with words almost as much as reading them. This'll likely be a fixture in every episode. If you have a topic you want to set us for the future then e-mail it to us at scrolls@hotmail.co.uk then stand well back.
More ways to interact! Scrolls now has a Skype answerphone set up, so if you want to contact us about any of the above topics, suggest new segments, have your own dulcet tone appear on the podcast or simply give us feedback, then call us at dion.winton.polak any time of day. It seems to work...
(Remember, the Editor is magic, so don't panic)Love listening to Clover's laughter? Visit Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour where Clover is her latest guest. Between giggles they talk about a whole bunch of topics that are not book related and one or two that are.
Last, but not least, we welcome feedback in the Comments section, especially from people who have never been in touch before.

GSN PODCAST: Bags of Action - Episode 34
Geek SyndicateThis is Bags of Action. The podcast devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them are awesome! In this episode Steve and Pete talk about Con Air from 1997, the first part of their trilogy devoted to John Cusack.
The film has a huge cast of characters with a lot of very big named actors including, Ving Rhames, John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, Colm Meaney, Nicholas Cage, Mykelti Williamson and Danny Trejo.
Next month we've decided what part 2 of the Cusack trilogy will be, but you, faithful listener, can decide on what the 3rd part will be. There are several choices on the Facebook Group, where you can vote for your favourite. If you would like to get in touch with the show you can follow us on Twitter @BagsofAction or you can email us at bagsofaction [at] gmail [dot] com or you could leave us a review on iTunes.

054 - Around the TARDIS in Just Under an Hour
Arrow of Time
Four guys walk into a TARDIS looking for a girl... wait, you’ve heard this one? Okay, how about the one where four guys walk into a TARDIS looking for salvage? You say that’s the same thing? That I’m just repackaging old ideas and saying them in a different way? No, I’m not taking Moffat lessons (that was last week). This week, listen along as we go ’round and ’round the TARDIS until we fall down into the middle-ish bits of the old girl.
If your appetite for Doctor Who is not yet sufficiently whetted, take a gander at this week’s WhoTube, “Doctor Who and the TARDIS: When World’s Collide”: http://youtu.be/6o34PUeNeoo

The Cloister Room 050 - Stuck On A Stone / I've Seen Your Name
The Cloister RoomWell, here we are, at an arbitrary numerical milestone. Fifty episodes. Did you ever think we’d make it this far? It only took us three years. But here we are at last. And to celebrate, Tom and Louis sat down for an extra-jam-packed episode, discussing NOT ONLY Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS, but also The Five Doctors! Wow! Incidentally, if you don’t care at all about our discussion of The Five Doctors, you can just skip ahead to 32 minutes in.
