The Elevator Pitch of Doom
Gallifrey Public Radio - A Doctor Who PodcastAll you wanted was a simple trip down to the ground floor, to grab a fresh cuppa from the fairly trustworthy cafe before dashing back up to your hotel room. Little did you know that when the doors closed, you'd find yourself next to none other than the head of programming for [insert really hip television network here]! Brain reeling, you see this as your big chance to lay out your ideas for that program that you've always wanted -- but you only have until the lobby light illuminates to make your plea. How are they going to know how desperately you want to see that obscure but compelling character cross over into a new viewing experience? Think fast, O Ye Representative of All Fandom, think so very fast! This week, we're playing a little innocuous game dubbed 'The Elevator Pitch of Doom', in which we are given a smattering of supporting Doctor Who characters, and have to find ways to utilize them in new program genres and script applications, thus ensuring that the televised world never goes a moment without Whovian influences throughout. It's for the greater good, after all. THE GREATER GOOD. News Links: The Doctor Who Movie to Release on Blu-Ray with Extras And the 1996 Movie Drinking Game to Go Along With It (to Our Demise) Congrats to Radio Free Skaro on their Tenth Circumnavigation of the Star Sol David Suchet Cast in Upcoming Series 10 Episode Fans Head to Cardiff Bay to Catch Sight of...Pokemon?

MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast 148 - "The Horns of Nimon" Classic Who Recap
Mutter's Spiral PodcastMUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast is back, and we're discussing the CLASSIC story from the Tom Baker era, "The Horns of Nimon"! Now, Nimon isn't in a class with the very best Baker stories (Genesis of the Daleks, City of Death, Deadly Assassin, Ark in Space), but it's one that likely made an indelible impression if you've ever seen it. It takes a classic story from Greek Mythology; puts a Whovian Sci-Fi spin on it; yet really and truly shows the limitations of classic Who and how sometimes, things JUST. DON'T. WORK. From a truly dodgy envisioning of the Nimon to middling pacing to spectacularly over-the-top performances - both Graham Crowden (who was almost the 4th Doctor!) as Soldeed and Malcolm Terris as the Co-Pilot are chewing scenery by the mouthful, Nimon shows how a Who story can fail, yet still be glorious, campy fun, if you're in the right mood. John and I will discuss all of this and more. If it's a story you've seen, you can nod and laugh along with us (hopefully). If you have NOT seen it, maybe we'll convince you to give it a try!
Plus, Nimon-related trivia and some news! Have a listen, won't you? Happy Holidays!

Doctor WhoochIn which we tell you all our thoughts on god.
On this week's show, Danica and Brandon are floating like leaves in the wind and rolling their eyes at a whole lot of things. Our hearts are cold and dead! Our livers are swimming! It's a whole thing. Anyway, we watch "The Rings of Akhaten" which is hard to spell, and is full of tree hands and shenanigans. And is also fun. But you know, whatever. Also, there's cupcakes, for REASONS.
