Latest Podcast Episodes

Now that many of us here at Traveling the Vortex are on the mend, we are able to bring you this week’s show. A little different this time, with a fan approach. This week we hear from some of the founding members of the Kansas City Time Lord Society for a discussion of the grass roots fan group and some of the up coming Planet Comicon in April. Then we welcome Doctor Who fan and cosplayer, Quiana who shares with us her passion for costuming as her favorite characters.

Also, as promised, a review of the first issue in the IDW series, Doctor Who: Prisoners of Time. And a look at the recently aired Doctor Who: The Doctors Revisited from BBC America.

And of course, some news and your feedback!

Enjoy!

P.S. Thanks for all the get well wishes throughout the week!

…is this thing on?

The second in a monthly series of Rassisodes (the first of which is consigned to the bin of Leeson’s drunken mindhole) sees the boys in joyous mood following a very enjoyable trip to #Rassilondon.

Were you there?

No, you probably weren’t, to be honest…but you can still enjoy it in the bath, or while eating a lovely fish supper and be there with us in spirit now, can’t you?

Harry and Leeson would like to take this opportunity to explain that it was very cold in #Rassilondon, and their many talents may have shrivelled slightly.

…is this thing on?

From toilet to tramp via pubs and An Unearthly Child…

Ladys, gentlemans, please be aware that it features some rambling…it’s The Radio Rassilon Podcast.

It was 25 years ago this year that Doctor Who celebrated it's 25th Anniversary.  The 25th Anniversary episode was "Silver Nemisis" and we're gearing up to celebrate the 50th Anniversary by reviewing this Anniversary episode from 25 years ago!

We've also got regular news and Gally news, and a mini lesson on llamas.

WARNING: Contains rabbit chasing

Episode 70: Silver Llamas

Because of a complicated situation involving Mandrels, Bandrils, the Borad and the Swarm, the Three Who Rule kept it (somewhat) brief this week, focusing on conserving their energies for the onslaught of Gallifrey coverage coming your way in a mere week and change. News included the casting of "An Adventure in Space and Time," the increasingly intruiging dramatization of the early days of Doctor Who, DVD news, analysis of the upcoming insanely detailed (and expensive) David Tennant figure, and a tribute to Bernard Horsfall, a veteran Classic Who actor who left us all too soon this week.

But since this is Radio Free Skaro, there was also pointless debate about the Mask of Omega, the overall quality of the Three Doctors, the Two Doctors and other classic stories, and speculation about just what the BBC is holding back (if anything) regarding their celebratory plans for the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who. Enjoy this short(er) but sweet(er) episode, which will lighten the weight of your portable listening device! Don't question that last statement, it is SCIENCE.

It is, or it was (sorry, people, we're two days late) January, and that means it's time for another Virgin Missing Adventure. This time around we discuss The Ghosts of N-Space by Barry Letts. Yes, that's the same Barry Letts who was the television program's show runner during much of the Pertwee era.

True to form, Letts penned this little tale featuring his favorite cast of characters: the Third Doctor, Sarah Jane, and the Brigadier. The novel is based on a radio play broadcast in 1995, a sequel to another play called The Paradise of Death. The story is nestled between the television stories "Death to the Daleks" and "The Monster of Peladon", a time during the series when the Doctor was permitted to travel freely in his TARDIS, although he remains earthbound in The Ghosts of N-Space. From the back cover:

'When the barrier gives way the planet will be flooded by all the evil in N-Space. And, at the moment, I have no idea how to stop it.'

Sarah Jane Smith, on holiday with her chum Jeremy and a bad case of writer's block, is amazed to find the Brigadier in the same part of Italy. He is there to help a distant relative whose tiny island home has been threatened by American mobster Max Vilmio.

When the ghosts that haunt the island's crumbling castle are joined by less benign spectres, the Brigadier summons the Doctor - who discovers that the whole of mankind is threatened by the plans of the ruthless Vilmio and his mysterious, hooded henchman.

This book was Letts' first foray into writing a novel for Virgin, but it was not his last contribution to the wide range of Doctor Who original novels; in 2005 he published Island of Death, a BBC Past Doctors Adventure featuring, of course, the Third Doctor and Company.

Grab a nice Italian glass of red vino and sit back and relax as we review The Ghosts of N-Space!
