Steven and Erika keep trucking along though the ice. To her delight, Erika finds the voices are much much better when there are moving creatures to pair them with. Steven talks about Pink Floyd — and even manages to make it relevant.

Erika and Steven continue the Canada Day festivities with more Doctor Who. However, Erika isn’t feeling very festive, due to the vocal performances of some of the actors in this story. Why does it have to be a SIX-parter?

…or should we say “THE ICE WARRIORS ONE” to match the opening credits?

We should definitely say Happy Canada Day! As per tradition, Steven and Erika spend part of their national holiday watching this show (created by a Canadian!) and podcasting about it.

There’s an awful lot to say about this episode! From incidental music to Victoria headcanon to a surprising amount of talk about Mark Gatiss’ stories, but there’s still time to squeeze in the official Canada Day-Doctor Who theme song!

Last week's vast wasteland of not-news has been replaced by a verdant jungle of news-news, most notably the announcement of Segun Akinola as the new composer for Doctor Who! Plus Matt Smith comes to Edmonton, and comics and calendars that sort of feature Jodie Whittaker or flat-out don't. There's other news of course, but this is a mere tease to part one of our commentary for the Jon Pertwee story "The Green Death", so dive back with us to June 1973 and hippies, environmentalism, and giant maggots!

How about that for a title? Too bad none of us speak Tritovore.

It’s Easter! Not really actually but like, it’s close enough. It’s a couple months late. Just pretend it’s Easter, I mean Easter doesn’t have a set date so we can just put it wherever we want. It’s Planet of the Dead, written by Russell T. Davies and Gareth Roberts, and aired on April 11, 2009.

Here is our June episode just in time before the end of the month! And speaking of time, our guest this month is no stranger to time travel. In fact, he travels in space as well as time. He's the star of the Inspector Chronicles and former Inspector Spacetime on NBC's Community, it's Travis Richey! He stops by to discuss his latest projects, his recent birthday wish of jumping out of an airplane, being eaten by a Dinocroc while David Carradine was living it up in Hawaii, and of course, Doctor Who. He also chooses a fantastic reboot of a 70s sci-fi classic, Battlestar Galactica, to chat with us about. If that's not enough, he's also created the Travis Richey Sketch Show on YouTube. Listen out for a sketch after the credits.

Also, joining us from London are James & Ian with the latest news about Twitch, Doctor Who's new composer, and football results.

Thanks for listening!
