326: It Says Everything it Shouldn’t and Nothing it Should (Children of Earth: Day One)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 18 minutes and 14 secondsKind of sounds like me, on the podcast.
Have we ever had a five episode serial in Doctor Who? We have, right? I’m pretty sure we did but I genuinely don’t remember any more. A lot of classic who has been completely wiped from my mind because I needed the space in my brain for other things. I can’t remember what those things were anymore. It’s Children of Earth: Day One, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on July 6, 2009.

Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 7 minutes and 15 secondsOk so this exact title doesn’t appear in the episode, sue me.
Besides, we’re covering 50 Shades of Grey on Triple Play at some point soon and it’s better not to make confusing and conflicting post titles. Yes, I’m for real serious that we’re covering that trilogy at some point. If you don’t believe me I guess you’ll just have to wait and see.

321: Can’t Be Bold Without Breaking the Mold (A Day in the Death)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 18 minutes and 25 secondsI thought of food mold for a hot second while writing that title.
A day in the life of Dylan is quite boring, as is a day in the life of Kiyan (probably, I don’t know). So I wonder what a day in our death will be. Maybe something just as equally boring. I’m planning to have my body sent to space, after I donate it to science. They have to know how we could so consistently release podcasts. Must be something in our bones. It’s A Day in the Death, written by Joseph Lidster and aired on February 27, 2008.

320: Owen’s Secret Twin Ian (Dead Man Walking)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 29 minutes and 39 secondsOh so that’s who Ian Chatterhouse was all this time.
I kind of feel like a Dead Man Walking. This episode was recorded in the pre-election era, and right now I’m sitting here feeling like the last week took 4 months. I almost didn’t recognize a single thing we were talking about, which is pretty wild if you think about it. But I did get the editing done, thank goodness, even when I really didn’t want to. It’s Dead Man Walking, written by Matt Jones and aired on February 20, 2008.

318: Remember When We Did Quotes? (Adam)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 24 minutes and 1 secondI don’t actually remember when we stopped doing quotes.
This week Dylan, Kiyan, and Adam take a nice deep dive into Torchwood. It’s been a little while since we watched an episode that so unnerved us that we were shaken to the very core. Our entire notion of reality itself was questioned by this episode, and Adam claimed it so disturbed him he might have to stop watching Torchwood. It’s Adam, written by Catherine Tregenna and aired on February 13, 2008.

Meat doesn’t even sound like a word any more but I’m sure if you think about something else for long enough it will be alright again.

316: The Last Bastion of Hope for the English Language (To The Last Man)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 0 secondsYou heard it here first, English is dead.
Turns out Kiyan’s entire field of study is dead except for him. You might wonder if you’re stuck inside a strange YA novel, since that seems exactly the kind of thing that would be written into one of those plots. But let me assure you, this is a Shakespeare play, and it’s a tragedy. It’s To The Last Man, written by Helen Raynor and aired on January 30, 2008.

Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 18 minutes and 17 secondsIt’s like five round rapid without the rapid.
I never did like rapids. People go on and on about how cute they are with their long ears and fluffy tails, but really they’re just rodents, right? Or maybe that was “rabbits.” Eh. Speaking of rodents, guess who “rode int”o town this week. It was the sleepers, their orders to take over finally having kicked in. It’s Sleeper, written by James Moran and aired on January 23, 2008.

Once upon a time I wanted to be a secret agent. But then I realized they probably wouldn’t like some sort of weird RSA expat who lives in the US. They might not trust that I’d be working in the best interest of the agency I work for. Interesting to ponder. It’s Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on January 16, 2008.

There’s a notably small amount of discussion of Torchwood in this episode. I’m not really sure why. Maybe it’s because the episode was boring as hell. No really, it was really boring!

306: The Village People are In Control of Everything (Countrycide)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 28 minutes and 39 secondsI’m about to crack this conspiracy wide open.
A lovely stroll with the Village People. I look out across the village. We are happy here. We listen to Go West every day, on repeat. In the Navy is our national anthem. And when we’re feeling really risque, we’ll listen to YMCA. We’ve all heard it so many times we can recite the dance from memory. It is a good life. It’s Countrycide, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on November 19, 2006.

305: Big Finish, Open Up! (Small Worlds)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 11 minutes and 22 secondsThe year is 2099. Big Finish prowls the street looking for non-Doctor Who fans.
I had never even made any association between this and the really annoyingly catchy Disney song until right this second. And now that I’ve made that association I’m not going to be able to unmake it. Plus now you’ve probably got that song stuck in your head, and you know what? You’re welcome. It’s Small Worlds, written by PJ Hammond and aired on November 12, 2006.

16:26: The Museum of Hoaxes has a write up and images of the Cottingley Fairies photos.
19:44: Wow for some reason dozens of people have adapted Conan Doyle’s The Lost World. Apparently I was wrong about Hound of the Baskervilles being not a Sherlock story at first. 50% isn’t so bad.
35:00: Here’s the full Nightmare painting from 1781. According to etymonline, nightmare doesn’t come from the painting, but did enter the modern usage of “any bad dream” after the painting was made.
39:51: World War I was 1914 to 1918.
54:19: Here’s the full Stolen Child poem by W.B. Yeats.

While we’re at it, here’s another Christian take on the show, this time from Be Thinking (warning: this one spoils the Children of Earth season).
Christian.org.uk also reported on how many Christians were offended by Torchwood and complained about it.

304: The UNIT Effect (Cyberwoman)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 30 minutes and 32 secondsI wish I was a UNIT soldier who could indiscriminately fail at his job like that.
Did you know I was partially cyberized once? It’s true, if you go back to some of our old episodes I’m sure you could hear when my voice would just go all cyber for some reason. Yeah that’s when I was cyberized. Luckily I was able to uncyberize myself but unfortunately I can’t really remember how I did that so that knowledge has been lost to the ages. Sorry. It’s Cyberwoman, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on November 5, 2006.
Show-notes:Amazing quote: https://web.archive.org/web/20110725050938/http://www.noisetosignal.org/tv/2006/11/torchwood-cyberwoman.php1:10:30 yeah I couldn’t find it

303: Complementary Desert Eagle (Ghost Machine)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 32 minutes and 55 secondsNot to be confused with Ghost IN The Machine.
If I had a ghost machine, I’d open that puppy up when I got into my apartment to find out if someone died in here. I might not want to actually know that, actually. Can you imagine if Gwen took the machine home, fired it up, and then boom just a straight montage of 6 murders happening in her home? The trauma that would induce. It’s Ghost Machine, written by Helen Raynor and aired on October 29, 2006.
Show-notes:
3:45: Relive our golden years with Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast or our sad attempt to recapture the magic with Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
18:33: Here’s the link to our April Fool’s episode… I still can’t believe we did this.

302: The Seven Sins of Torchwood (Day One)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 0 minutes and 8 secondsAnd the secret 0th sin: existence.
The name of this story evokes strong memories of… something. Another story or tv show or movie and I just can’t really place what it is. I seriously feel like I watched something called Day One once upon a time and I genuinely cannot remember what the heck it was. That’s so weird. It’s Day One, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on October 29, 2006.
Show-notes:4:27: You’re welcome for this masterpiece of movie musical history. My personal favourite part is 1:19, when a dancer launches a bowling ball sideways accidentally and the shot immediately cuts, presumably to avoid showing the carnage that caused.
8:40: Every time.
16:14: If you want to listen us talk about classic sci-fi shows like Sapphire & Steel or The Prisoner, check out our classic sci-fi podcast, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
27:01: FBI, OPEN UP
43:16: Yes, there really is a page for masturbation on the tardis wiki.
56:50: Here’s the trailer for Vampire Diary. Y’know, I kind of miss the edginess of the mid 00s.
58:00: Yeah, I was completely wrong here. Twilight was never a Harry Potter fanfic. Dylan was right. It was 50 Shades that started as a Twilight fanfic.

301: A Christian Reading of Torchwood (Everything Changes)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 33 minutes and 2 secondsI’m probably the worst person to do this kind of reading honestly.
The title of this weeks episode of Torchwood is surprisingly apt for the change in the show that we’re also going to experience. Which is why Kiyan was able to so expertly make that pun last week about it. Well not much else to say besides that. It’s Everything Changes, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on October 22, 2006.

Redux 7: Bondage Spiderwebs (Time and the Rani)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 10 minutes and 49 secondsI only like bondage anthills personally.
So we’ve come to the end of our little journey, which means it’s time to jump back into the late 2000’s for some quality early 21st century television. But before that, we have to suffer through Pip and Jane Baker’s masterpiece. Some say it’s their greatest work, their magnum opus. It’s Time and the Rani, written by Pip and Jane Baker and aired between September 7th and 28th, 1987.
Show-notes:
6:47: Much as I hate to link to this AGAIN, here’s The Bikini Bottom Horror.
10:57: If you want to listen to us talk about Back to the Future (and Crispin Glover’s legal battle), you’re in luck I guess.
17:29: Here’s a quick (but kind of old-ish) video about Hong Kong’s cage housing.
21:07: Behold: the Area 51 Naruto runner
22:30: Here’s the stupid asteroid/meteor/meteorite overview thing AGAIN.
37:16: If you want to listen to us talk about classic sci-fi, check out our classic sci-fi podcast Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast. Oh, and we also have a completed Blake’s 7 podcast called Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast. So if you wwant to hear a Blake’s 7 podcast from us, check that out.

Redux 6 : Chekhov’s Stinger (Mindwarp)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 18 secondsIt’s like a shitty version of the mystery mobile.
Alright gang buckle up because we’re coming to the end of this insane ride and we’re doing it right. And by doing it righ I mean we’re mindwarping ourselves, so I’ll putting my brain in Kiyan and he’s putting his brain in me and then absolutely nothing will change because as it turns out in the TYD canon we don’t really have defined characters. Or do we? Also we’ll be retconning that away in two weeks when we start Torchwood so. It’s Mindwarp, written by Philip Martin and aired between October 4th and 25th, 1986.
Show-notes:2:09: Actual recorded audio of Philip Martin bailing.
6:56: The novel that features Sil is called Mission to Magnus. It came out in 1990… and also has the Ice Warriors in it?!
15:40: Actually according to the Tardis wiki, Perpugilliam means “she who lives in the hills.” So I don’t know what the hell I was talking about here.
19:33: The Rock actually streamed some of his “cheat day” meals recently. (Or maybe he always does this? I don’t know.) Here’s one of them.
24:16: Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast is a podcast where we talk about movie trilogies and that you should check out if you want to listen to us talk about movie trilogies in podcast format.
31:40: Dudley Simpson had already stopped composing for the show by this point.
36:09: Rare footage of Sil
55:17: Funny that we should mention Sapphire & Steel here considering we’re watching it for one of our other podcasts, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
1:05:40: Yeah, the 1970 Cromwell movie has Alec Guinness in it.
1:07:47: Funny we should mention Blake’s 7 here since we have a completed Blake’s 7 podcast called Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast.
1:08:35: Vargas was the name of Brian Blessed’s character in Blake’s 7.

Redux 5: Sea Devil’s Advocate (Warriors of the Deep)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 20 minutes and 28 secondsCan’t wait to see all of the Sea Devil photoshops we’ll get out of this.
I find it interesting that in reality the Silurians are the ones in charge of this story, completely and utterly. But while they may be the ones in control, they aren’t the ones who lend their name to the title of the story. The Sea Devils don’t really do anything except show up and cap a bunch of fools, and then they just kind of… die. And yet somehow the story is named after them? It’s Warriors of the Deep, written by Johnny Byrne and aired between January 5th and 13th , 1984.
Show-notes:
9:44: Check out our classic sci-fi podcast, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
14:28: This is the Ulysses cover I was talking about.

Redux 4: Anthony Read’s Timeless Children (Underworld)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 27 minutes and 47 secondsWhat if Anthony Read had actually written The Timeless Children?
Personally I find that my dreams have taken me to the real life underworld much more than this story ever did. It’s pretty hellish down there, so I’m gonna give you all a warning. I’ve become best buds with some of my demons though, which is cool. They bought be a soda last week, that was nice of them. It’s Underworld, written by Bob Baker and Dave Martin and aired between January 7th and 28th , 1978.

Redux 3: That Vague Memory of 6 Years Ago (The Monster of Peladon)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 13 minutes and 17 secondsI only have vague memories of 6 years ago apparently.
In this episode Kiyan will espouse the belief that you should watch Monster of Peladon every single day, over and over and over again until you get it. Now I don’t necessarily disagree, but I have to wonder, is that what people want us to do with The Massacre? And if so, how is this not just some sort of twisted version of stockholm syndrome? It’s Monster of Peladon, written by Brian Hayles and aired between March 23 and April 27, 1974.
Show-notes:
8:13: The basic premise of 4 to Doomsday is that some aliens are on a spaceship headed to earth and are going to wipe out humanity with a virus.
12:05: According to the Doctor Who wiki the Fourth Doctor used a sonic lance on his sonic screwdriver in Robot.
21:30: I was talking about The Aims of Discourse by James Kinneavey. You can read it at that link for free with a jstor account.
38:43: Check out Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast. We’re currently (at the time of writing this) watching Sapphire and Steel.
1:04:36: Looks like Cold Warrior is just a random tv show from 1984. I could barely find any info about it other than this wiki page and an even more threadbare imdb page.

Redux 2: It Is I, British Man (The Space Pirates)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 39 minutes and 33 secondsIt’s me, the newest superhero!
I’m not saying that we’ve engaged in time piracy, stealing Doctor Who from the present then talking about it in the past and then having the show recreate the show from our podcast, but I’m not saying that we didn’t either. Why didn’t Bo Holmes write a story about Time Pirates instead? That would have been way more interesting. We were right all along. It’s The Space Pirates. Written by Robert Holmes and aired between March 8 and April 12, 1969.
Show-notes:
23:43: Check out our Blake’s 7 podcast, Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast.
29:16: Apparently it’s just a myth that the navy has more aircraft than the air force. At least according this Business Insider article from 2015 about debunking military myths.
33:50: Here’s Bob Saget’s take on the “The Aristocrats” joke.
1:17:35: Ben Steed’s first story on Blake’s 7 was Harvest of Kairos.
1:23:23: Pretty sure the movie I was thinking of here was The Box.

Redux 1: A Little Religious Strife Never Hurt Anyone (The Massacre)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 6 minutes and 12 secondsThis week the meme comes… Full Circle.
We have returned to the site of our greatest defeat to try once again. The serial where we have broken so far from common accepted fan criticism. And we stand here, upon the ruins of our empire, to say… We were right all along. It’s The Massacre… again. Written by John Lucarotti and Donald Tosh and aired between February 5th and 26th, 1966.
Show-notes:
0:55: I couldn’t find which one it was. If anyone knows, let us know. =
12:25: When I said “medieval times” here, I meant Medieval Times, the American dinner theater thingamajig. Still wonder why and how Medieval Times exists and is successful sometimes, but hey.

This week we continue to avoid starting Tochwood, and then even come up with more ways to avoid Torchwood for the next coming weeks! Can you believe that? Because honestly I can’t. I’m amazed we’ve been able to do that somehow. It only comes at the expense of revisiting all of our most derided episodes… It’s Daleks – Invasion Earth 2150 AD, directed by Gordon Flemying and released on August 5, 1966.

299: Slowly Perishing Rubber 1965 Dalek Outfit ft. Brendan and Nathan (Dr. Who and the Daleks)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 56 minutes and 4 secondsSomehow we found more content to cover.
This week we set the time scoop to “random” and are joined by surprise guests Brendan and Nathan of the fabulous Flight Through Entirety podcast (among other achievements). I think we always knew that somehow we’d cover this movie, somewhere, and so we figured why the hell not, lets do it now. Besides, it’s not like there’s anything else left for us to cover, I say, staring conspicuously at Torchwood sitting in the corner. It’s Dr. Who and the Daleks, directed by Gordon Flemying and released on August 23, 1965.

Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 24 minutes and 56 secondsOur first brand new guest in like…. ages!
I honestly thought that the name of the group of people in this episode was the Villa Diodati, not the name of the house. So it came as quite a shock when doing research for this episode and I realized it was the name of the place. It should have been obvious in hindsight with the double l but alas.

296: He Can See the History of Trust Your Doctor, The Most British Thing Ever (Can You Hear Me?)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 5 minutes and 27 secondsNo for real, can you hear me?
I honestly thought going in that this was going to be an episode where nobody could hear anyone and a deaf character was going to be the hero. Like, straight up. This story went in a completely different direction to what I expected and I kind of appreciate and admire that. So good on you story for subverting the expectations you created in the title. It’s Can You Hear Me? written by Charlene James and Chris Chibnall and aired on February 9, 2020.

294: The Haunting of Vila Restal (Fugitive of the Judoon)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 52 minutes and 43 secondsThe crossover we’ve all been waiting for.
I was a fugitive once. The cops came to my house, told me I was wanted for stealing toilet paper during a time of crisis. I, of course, denied it and jumped out the window. Pretty sure I broke my ankle on the way down but I didn’t have time to verify. Some say I’m still running to this day, although I think the police have other toilet paper thieves on their hands now. It’s Fugitive of the Judoon written by Vinay Patel and Chris Chibnall and aired on January 26, 2020.
Show-notes:
1:40: Here’s an article about Wikipedia editors editing Bloomberg’s death into his wiki page. Wikipedia editors are some of the most dangerous and unhinged people out there.

293: Emotional Support Companion (Nikola Tesla’s Night of Terror)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 4 minutes and 24 secondsBring back K9.
This week on Trust Your Doctor: every single person you ever thought was a hero is actually a terrible person. Who could have guessed that? Not me, not you, not anyone close to these people who have been warning us for years and only just now got heard because said person is all of a sudden famous. No certainly not them. It’s Nikola Tesla’s Night of Terror written by Nina Métivier and aired on January 19, 2020.
Show-notes:
2:45: The “Why would ________ do this?” meme (mixed in this example with the all time classic “Bush did 9/11” meme).
4:09: The Current War. You know a movie’s good when its Wikipedia article starts with “[name of movie] is a 2017/2019 American historical drama”
15:14: Check out Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast, our movie trilogy podcast.
17:30: Well here’s Dylan’s twitter. I don’t know whether he actually posted the “barcodes” as “planned,” but if he did that’s where they would be.
19:05: It would’ve been the Austro-Hungarian krone I guess. Or maybe the Austrian shilling? I dunno.
29:10: It was The Underwater Menace.
35:27: 5 seconds on google told me it was Margaret Hamilton.

292: Green Hams and Eggs (Orphan 55)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 51 minutes and 42 secondsMultiple hams at once, just all over.
I wonder what the other 54 orphan planets look like. Do you think they look anything like bombed out earth in the future? Maybe the bombed out shell of Gallifrey was an orphan planet too, and then it become Gallifrey. And the Timelords took its orphan status away. They adopted it. What a good society! It’s Orphan 55 written by Ed Hime and aired on January 12, 2020.
Show-notes:

19:30: Here’s the “Disney’s Catacombs” creepypasta.
20:50: List of incidents at Disney parks. There are multiple lists to read, so this page collects all of them. Also the movie I was talking about was Escape from Tomorrow. I just read the plot summary on wikipedia and it sounds wild.

291: Invention Convention ft. JB Anderton (Spyfall)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 2 hours, 22 minutes and 46 secondsIt’s like a science fair but worse.
Weirdly enough there’s actually a new James Bond movie coming out this year. As in like, for the first time in 5 years there’s a James Bond movie coming to theatres. How do I know it was 5 years? Well because I took my dad for his birthday to see it, and it was a monumental age (no, I won’t tell you what it was though). It’s Spyfall written by Chris Chibnall and aired on January 1 and 5, 2020.
Show-notes:
13:12: The Doctor Who wiki surprisingly doesn’t have a page on left handedness. So instead here’s the page on dates.
22:30: Outside of G.I. Joe, Cobra is like an Austrian military police unit, an Indian police force, and a Serbian military police force.
24:04: It’s not pinned anymore because @Prof_Quiteamess deleted it ;_;
30:38: It was actually steganography. Stenography is something else. According to the Doctor wiki, steganography was only ever mentioned in this episode.
32:11: Here’s Lenny Henry playing the Doctor in 1985. I’ve actually seen this before, but I completely forgot about it.
1:08:30: Check out Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast, that podcast that we’re finally doing again.
1:14:36: Also check out our other podcasts Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast and Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
1:39:20: This is just copied straight from the Doctor Who wiki: “Editing for the DVD release was completed by the Doctor Who Restoration Team. The most prominent of these edits is to the serial’s final scenes, when the freighter crashes into prehistoric earth. The edit mainly revises the scene so that, instead of the TARDIS’s monitor showing a still image of the freighter, followed by several bright flashes (meant to represent the explosion of the impact), the screen actually shows the freighter slamming into the Earth, with the explosion being represented by a pulsating light over the impact site.” This obviously has to do with the DVD release, which came out in like 2003 (so not exactly recently). But I think this might’ve been what people were discussing when it came to the blu ray.
2:16:52: Here’s the discussion that JB mentioned.
2:19:39: And of course just check out WHO 37 in general, and also check out BAT 77 too.

290: I Just Literally Don’t Care (Resolution)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 54 minutes and 14 secondsShould old Doctors be forgotten?
I only just processed that this was the only episode of Doctor Who that aired in 2019. The one and only single one. Which is a little weird because 2019 was so damn long, at least in my life. And throughout that long span of time there was only one single episode of Doctor Who to keep me sane. Pity. It’s Resolution written by Chris Chibnall and aired on January 1, 2019.
Show-notes:
9:16: More on old style and new style dates. Surprise surprise, we (I) got most of this wrong. Also I mentioned how the shift affected the dates that early U.S. presidents were inaugurated on, but the shift actually came way before that. What I meant to say was that it affects most of the early presidents’ birthdays.
15:05: The entire 2020 state of the union.
34:10: Aaaand of course I can’t find it. I actually looked for more than 30 seconds for once, but nope. I got nothing.
39:11: A Single Man is by Christopher Isherwood.

288: 6 Years Later and Still Nobody Cares (It Takes You Away)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 52 minutes and 22 secondsThis is the most depressing thing I’ve ever heard.
I’ve always wanted to go to Norway. Never really had the opportunity to do so though. Which is a bummer because it always looked nice. I wonder why this episode is set in Norway and not Sweden. A good question for another time. It’s It Takes You Away, written by Ed Hime and aired on December 1, 2018.
Show-notes:
2:12: This is the first time we’ve seen Norway on the tv show, but it’s been in comics and audios before. Bad Wolf Bay was in Norway, but it was in the alternate world.
9:35: Here’s the trailer for The Silence. Cash-in on “A Quiet Place” or not, this was actually based on a book that came out in 2015.
21:43: Video of Gordon Ramsay and James May eating fermented shark
24:47: Unfortunately I couldn’t find any behind-the-scenes info on the antizone. I did find this somewhat-interesting video that kind of goes behind the scenes on this episode. It’s not too great, but yeah.
27:57: It was Spinoza, and the concept was called natura naturans.

287: Frogtor Who(The Witchfinders)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 57 minutes and 58 secondsRibbit ribbit ribbit ribbit ribbit ribbit.
Something something the Crucible is actually about the Red Scare. Well not actually. It was really about the witch hunts, but it’s supposed to be heavily about the Red Scare. Drawing parallels between the two really. But as Kiyan says “intentionality doesn’t matter” so in many ways you could see it as whatever you want. Maybe to you it’s just a play about the witch hunts. It’s The Witchfinders, written by Joy Wilkinson and aired on November 25, 2018.
