Radio Free Skaro
- Description:
- Radio Free Skaro is possibly the most popular, most prolific and charmingly irreverent (but never irrelevant) Doctor Who podcast around. Since August 2006, hosts Warren (in Vancouver, BC) and Steven (in Edmonton, AB) have provided listeners with their brand of amusing Doctor Who praise and punishment. A year later, Chris (in Amherst, NS) was added to the team, and The Three Who Rule were born. Recommended by Doctor Who Magazine, Radio Free Skaro provides an entertaining and diverting listen for the diehard or casual Doctor Who fan. New episodes usually appear on Sundays, following a loose magazine format of the three hosts discussing the news and events of the past week in the worlds of Doctor Who, Torchwood, and the Sarah Jane Adventures. They have also recorded special commentary podcasts for classic series and new series episodes of Doctor Who along with interviews of some of the brightest of the Doctor Who luminaries. Radio Free Skaro is also the official podcast of Gallifrey One, the world's largest and longest-running annual Doctor Who convention.

Radio Free Skaro #165 - Radio Free Skaro in an Exciting Adventure With The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 36 minutes and 44 secondsWarren is still trundling around Asia so in his absence the remaining Two Who Rule invited along Luke from The Minute Doctor Who Podcast to join in the frivolity. Some good news (Doctor Who confirmed for Christmas and a Children in Need Preview of Tennant's penultimate episode) was discussed as was some bad news (various bits of DVD-related disappointments) whilst opinions were split down the middle on the latest installment of The Sarah Jane Adventures (quite a tough thing to do with an odd number of participants). David Whitaker gets quite the workout in the miniscope, complete with a Vampire/Halloween tie-in, and Steven finally commits to an appearance on Luke's Doctor Who-based Mastermind quiz!
-
Radio Free Skaro #164 - Clough Luck
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 48 minutes and 9 secondsWith Warren on holiday in Japan and China, Katrina joins the fray (see what we did there?) as the Radio Free Skaro gang discusses more about the Doctor Who Magazine ranking poll, a mass of DVD news as well as the premiere story of the new Sarah Jane Adventures series and more. Was Sarah Jane worthwhile viewing? Will Doctor Who fandom become collective paupers from the deluge of early 2010 DVD releases? Will Chris Clough get the tongue lashing so many think he deserves in this week's Miniscope? Delve into this week's gripping episode to find out!

Radio Free Skaro #163 - Remembering Barry Letts
Episode Duration: 51 minutes and 19 secondsThe Doctor Who world lost one of its indisputable titans on October 9, 2009, when Barry Letts passed away at the age of 84. Letts was a director, writer, executive producer, and, most notably, producer of Doctor Who from 1970-1974. He was also one of the greatest ambassadors that the programme has ever known. In this episode, actor/comedian and noted fan and unofficial historian of Doctor Who, Toby Hadoke, was kind enough to join us to help us celebrate the legacy of the great Barry Letts.

-
Radio Free Skaro #162 - Maloney Sandwich
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 26 minutes and 10 secondsA new logo, new location pics, and confirmation that the BBC is indeed going along with the madness of referring to Matt Smith's junior outing as the Doctor as Series 1. The Three Who Rule also engaged in a spirited discussion about the possibility of an international iPlayer, as well as devoted the ever-popular Miniscope to the work of David Maloney, one of Doctor Who's finest visualists and a gentleman director to spare. Allons-y! Check out the show notes at http://www.radiofreeskaro.com.
-
Radio Free Skaro #161 - Second Hand News
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 27 minutes and 1 secondRumours, rumours and more rumours were grist for the RFS mill this week, as the Three Who Rule speculated on a new, possibly leaked list of Season 5/1/31 writers (and confirmed one or two writers and directors along the way), watching Phil (friend of the show) Ford's reactions to watching Dreamland (very meta) and DVD speculation run amok. All this and a Fiona Cumming Miniscope. Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com.
-
Radio Free Skaro #160 - Ferme La Boucher
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 6 minutes and 17 secondsThis week's Miniscope saw an appearance by Chris Boucher, best known not only for his scripts for Robots of Death, The Face of Evil and Image of the Fendahl, but also for writing for Blake's 7 (acting as script editor for the show from 1978 to 1981) and Star Cops and....his segment consisted of six minutes. The remaining time was filled with the trademarked digressionary banter known and tolerated by RFS fandom, ranging from a list of Gallifrey 2010's many exciting panels to the strange character known as Itchy Spider-man.
-
Radio Free Skaro #159 - Throw Down The Quantlet
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 20 minutes and 57 secondsWith the Doctor Who Magazine release of the ming-mongiest list of favorite Doctor Who episodes in the past 11 years (when a nuWho-less but also ming-mongy list sparked debate amongst the faithful), the Three Who Rule were like starving, nerdy dogs drawn to raw meat. Weighing in on their own picks and what they felt was wrong-headed and frankly evil placement of some of their favorite episodes, they also made time to speculate on the scheduling of Dreamland, the Waters of Mars and to roundly chastise Richard Curtis for not getting his Doctor Who air dates right. And oh yes, a Miniscope featuring Pennant Roberts also made an appearance, flood-lit and underbudgeted. Hoo...ray.
-
Radio Free Skaro #158 - Amsterdamned
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 23 minutes and 33 secondsWith news sorely lacking, the Three Who Rule were momentarily relieved to hide in the welcome shelter of a commentary, in this case the third and fourth instalments of "Arc of Infinity", a maudlin yarn notable more for IKEA furniture infesting Gallifrey than for an interesting story. But their welcome was short lived, as Cracklor once again besieged Warren and his computer more or less opted for suicide....much like Omega, as his Rice Krispie wounds boiled into nothingness. Poignancy ahead, dear listeners. Sheer poignancy.

Radio Free Skaro Presents Podcest: The Whooverville Podcast Panel
Episode Duration: 36 minutes and 45 secondsThe Whooverville Doctor Who convention that took place in September at Derby featured a notable podcasting panel featuring representatives from no less than eight (8) different Doctor Who podcasts. Eager to elbow their way into a party to which they were never invited, Radio Free Skaro is proud to present this panel to you for your listening enjoyment. Very big thanks to Adam Purcell of Staggering Stories for providing the audio.
Oh, and happy 100th episode, Tin Dog.
Appearing at the Whooverville Podcast Panel were:
- Tony Gallichan from The Flashing Blade Podcast
- Michael Gilroy from Doctor Who: Tin Dog Podcast
- Karen Dunn and Adam Purcell from Staggering Stories Podcast
- Marty Perrett from DWO Whocast
- Dave Cooper from The Cultdom Chronicles
- James Naughton from Doctor Who: Podshock
- Nat Titman from Bridging The Rift
- Luke Harrison from The Minute Doctor Who Podcast
-
Radio Free Skaro #157 - Byrne, Baby, Byrne
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 30 minutes and 28 secondsThe classic series commentary makes a not-so-triumphant return to the Radio Free Skaro fold as we merge the Miniscope with the oldtime-filling standby. With Johnny Byrne as our subject we plod through the week's weak news with discussion of lowlights such as Warriors of the Deep and our commentary of the first half of Arc of Infinity. There should have been another way, indeed! Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com. (NOTE: This is the fixed version of this episode.)
-
Radio Free Skaro #156 - Polyphase Avatron
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 21 minutes and 50 secondsThe Three Who Rule were in fine fettle this week, if fettle is judged by ability to digress and avoid the topic at hand. Through discussion that veered into subjects as strange as podcestuous panels in Derby, the horror of a rebroadcast of Dimensions in Time and the continued demonstration of Warren’s complete lack of a short-term memory, the trio ambled towards the Miniscope and Douglas Adams’ short but memorable tenure as Doctor Who script editor. Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com.
-
Radio Free Skaro #155 - Holmesian Triple Act
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 22 minutes and 49 secondsIn an episode of threes, the Three Who Rule discuss the first of three filler Doctor Who clip shows (Doctor Who: Greatest Moments), Series Three of the Sarah Jane Adventures, upcoming DVD releases featuring Doctor No. 3, Jon Pertwee, and last but not least, the third and final installment of the Miniscope segment featuring Robert Holmes. Next week's Miniscope topic was also determined via the Randomizer...but you'll have to listen to the show to find out who it is! (Hint: it's not Pennant Roberts.) Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com.
-
Radio Free Skaro #154 - Condo Says LOL XD
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 18 minutes and 47 secondsMany a broadcasting intrigue formed the backbone of Whoish news this week, from BBC America's machinations to...BBC Wordwide's transgressions. The Three Who Rule also engaged in Socratic debate over the claims of Rona Munro, the scribe behind Survival, that romance in nuWho constitutes lazy writing. All that and another exciting Miniscope (part two of three) examining the glory years of one Robert Holmes as he ascended to script writer and Doctor Who demigod. Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com.
-
Radio Free Skaro #153 - A Tweet Too Far
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 7 minutes and 47 secondsThe Three Who Rule covered the gamut of Whoish happenings this week, from the shocking revelation that Meglos will return for David Tennant's finale (unconfirmed) to Ian Levine's rather tenuous grasp on the the fundamental underpinnings of the internet (hint: don't fear the link.) And amongst this madness was revealed the Miniscope, a new weekly feature examining a writer, producer or other behind the scenes chieftain whose drive and talent brought us the Classic Who episodes we love so dearly. Up first is Robert Holmes, or at the very least his contribution to the ouvres of Mr. Troughton and Mr. Pertwee. Enjoy, dear listeners.
-
Radio Free Skaro #152 - Fax the Betamax
Episode Duration: 45 minutes and 33 secondsThe Three Who Rule come off last week's plethora of news with but a handful of offerings this time around. Turning lemons into lemonade they parry and thrust their way through another hearty podcast for your aural pleasure. From the return of Spoilor to thoughts on the return of Tom Baker to the role of The Doctor, grab your foil and join the fray.
-
Radio Free Skaro #151 - Killing Time Before The Waters of Mars
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 59 minutes and 57 secondsIn what has to be the most overwhelming of all weeks for Doctor Who in all recorded history, the RFS crew slogged mightily through tales of Comic Con, rumours confirmed, others dashed, and in the midst of our recording the release of a new trailer for "The Waters of Mars." And that was BEFORE we got around commentating on "Planet of the Dead", making this if not the longest Radio Free Skaro ever than certainly the densest, and not just because of PotD's plodding, pedestrian poltroonery.
-
Radio Free Skaro #150 - Sasquatchicentennial
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 16 minutes and 43 secondsAn exciting landmark in RFS history, as the Three Who Rule celebrate their Sasquatchicentennial, otherwise known as the 150th episode of their half-crazed (yet still consistently jaunty) blatherings. And what better way to mark the occasion than "The Parting of the Ways," Eccleston's final episode as the good Doctor and one of the many highlights of the 2005 return of the series. News, digressions and a visit from one of the Internet's most pervasive memes round out this most 150-th of episodes. Play him off, Keyboard Cat! Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com
-
Radio Free Skaro Wednesday Cutaway - The Ballad of Jack and Ianto
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 9 minutes and 19 secondsIn a noteworthy Wednesday cutaway, Radio Free Skaro enlisted the help of some of our LGBT listeners to hold a discussion on the recent uproar about Torchwood: Children of Earth (about which there will be spoilers!) and the perceived homophobia many in the fandom community say it presented. Many thanks go to our own Katrina who leads the panel with listeners Erik and Nat in delivering an hour of informed discussion about this fandom reaction.

Radio Free Skaro #149 - Torchwood - Children of Worth
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 30 minutes and 33 secondsIn a stunning, nay flabbergasting turn of events, the Torchwood: Children of Earth miniseries turned out to be not only a fantastic five days of entertainment but possibly one of the best things on television thus far this year. A special 4 person quorum of the RFS council was called to deal with this turn of events, with special Torchwood representative Katrina joining the fun. But that's not all! The Three Who Rule Plus One also threw in a Bad Wolf commentary...but of course such good fortune meant the beast Cracklor also paid a visit. Still, an epic-length RFS for an epic entry in the Doctor Who canon.

-
Radio Free Skaro #148 - Boom Town Rats
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 8 minutes and 31 secondsThings took a turn for both the obscene and obsequious and Pedantor proved he could crawl even lower into the gutter he calls home and Warren was bested by Cracklor, a skypeovore that feasts on distorted, craptacular VOIP. Oh, and somewhere in this menagerie of madness the sometimes forgotten but certainly notable Boom Town was commented on by the Three Who Rule. Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com
-
Radio Free Skaro #147 - Dancing Doctors and Empty Children
Episode Duration: 55 minutes and 19 seconds(Warren and Steven version)
With only Torchwood news to bandy about, the second part of Steven Moffat's epic two-parter from Season 1 took center stage for this episode for a shorthanded RFS staff as they discussed the intricacies of one of the first series' masterpieces while simultaneously avoiding any actual discussion of the episode at hand, as per usual.

Radio Free Skaro #147 - Empty Children and Dancing Doctors
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 16 minutes and 18 seconds(Chris, Katrina and Other Chris version)
With only Torchwood news to bandy about, the second part of Steven Moffat's epic two-parter from Season 1 took center stage for this episode for a shorthanded RFS staff as they discussed the intricacies of one of the first series' masterpieces while simultaneously avoiding any actual discussion of the episode at hand, as per usual.

-
Radio Free Skaro #146 - Better Aim Than Graham
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 12 minutes and 31 secondsIt's not often that the Three Who Rule spend more than a minute dismissing Torchwood out of hand, much less being interested in a new series of everyone's tolerated younger, ganglier cousin to Doctor Who. But that strange event is precisely what happened (explained away with string theory and many a complicated equation, most likely), along with some pre Comic Con banter and oh yes, a commentary on The Empty Child.

-
Radio Free Skaro #145 - The Lament of Steven
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 9 minutes and 4 secondsSteven, one mighty pillar of the tripod that is the Three Who Rule, doesn't often succumb to the base emotions. Indeed, compared to the gutter-dwelling antics of Pedantor and the frankly borderline illegal conduct of Warren, Steven's unflappable facade is nigh-invulnerable. But when the fate of Pete Tyler in "Father's Day" comes into play, all propriety goes out the window. Tune in and hear his descent into madness...if you dare.
-
Warren Frey Interviews Ron frakkin' Moore!
Episode Duration: 7 minutes and 32 secondsRadio Free Skaro's Warren Frey, while wearing his TechVibes hat (www.techvibes.com), and along with cameraman Kris Krug, sat down with Battlestar Galactica creator and head writer Ron Moore at the 2009 Banff TV Festival.

Radio Free Skaro #144 - Square Peggs
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 31 minutes and 38 secondsKatrina was back in the fold again this week (replacing Warren, who’s busy blogging in Banff this week), with the main focus of the Three Who Rule being to provide comments on Series 1 episode The Long Game. The trio never once went more than ten minutes without discussing the episode at hand – a new record? Along the way, various bits of news were covered, including the explosion of fandom (aka the closing of Doctor Who Forum at Outpost Gallifrey), the shrapnel of which, it was determined, landed well short of affecting your intrepid hosts.

-
Radio Free Skaro #143 - Never Trust a Man With a Soul Patch
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 39 minutes and 55 secondsMore news than you can shake a stick at and a highlight of the Eccleston era (Rob Shearman's "Dalek") being commented upon, the Three Who Rule blather on for an hour and a half about the happenings in the Who world for the past week (including a discussion on new companion Karen Gillan), and touch on the introduction of a Classic Series icon to NuWho. All this and the latest on Ian Levine and Lizo Mzimba at your fingertips on Radio Free Skaro!

Radio Free Skaro #142 - Four To Doomsday
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 12 minutes and 40 secondsIn a desperate bid to find someone who could give an unequivocal thumbs up to Series 1 tome World War Three, the RFS gang numbered four (Warren, Steven, Chris, and Katrina) for one of the few times in history to record a commentary for the episode. The result? No thumbs up were given, but neither were there definite thumbs down, mostly because the hosts were more encumbered in dealing with various innuendos, intended or otherwise.
-
Radio Free Skaro #141 - The Curse of Keith Boak
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 19 minutes and 35 secondsWith the regular hosts of Radio Free Skaro jumping ship left and right in order to avoid commentating on perceived Series One low point Aliens of London, it was left to Steven, Katrina, and, at the last minute, Chris to try and find something worthy to talk about for the Slitheen's debut appearance in Doctor Who lore. They succeeded in not going too terribly off topic, although the intrusion of the subtitle track from the 1964 classic series story Marco Polo didn't help. Have a listen for yourselves!
-
Radio Free Skaro #140 - The Gay(seous) Agenda
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 13 minutes and 41 seconds"The Unquiet Dead" was the episode next in line for commentary, but the intrepid investigations of the Three Who Rule have discovered a hidden message within this tale of Dickens, aliens, and reanimated corpses. Yes, it seems Russel T. Davies sees fit to force his sick preferences for matter in neither solid or liquid but gaseous(!) form down the throats of the public. Well, not on our watch, dear listener. What's next, marriage between a glass of water and a pineapple? The mind boggles.
-
HiSciFi Interviews Radio Free Skaro's Warren Frey
Episode Duration: 53 minutes and 55 secondsHiSciFi, a weekly science fiction radio show that broadcasts out of Vancouver's Simon Fraser University on CJSF Radio, recently sat down to interview Radio Free Skaro's own Warren Frey about all things Doctor Who, as well as chat a little bit about this very podcast. Listen as Warren defends Peter Davison, exhumes William Hartnell (only to bury him again), and generally nerds it up with the radio hosts for nigh on 45 minutes.
-
Radio Free Skaro #139 - An Absence of Pedantry
Episode Duration: 53 minutes and 50 secondsThere was no, repeat no news this week, save a couple of tidbit that were quite spoilery and best left to rot unless confirmed correct. Added to that was RFS dilettante "The Third Guy" was off at an event in Manchester called "<a href="http://tardisscanner.yuku.com/calendar/event/id/739">Who at the Fab Cafe</a>" (sounds made up). But while Chris had an imaginary good time, it was up to Steven, Warren and Katrina to pick up the slack and give their thoughts and opinions on "The End of the World".
-
Radio Free Skaro #138 - The Radio Free Skaro 138th Episode Spectacular
Episode Duration: 21 minutes and 31 secondsAs Radio Free Skaro celebrates the all important milestone of their 138th episode, they take some time out for this Wednesday Cutaway to sit around the fireplace, dig into their mailbag, and, for the first time ever, answer about half of the 22 comments and emails that the Three Who Rule have received since starting up this podcast nigh on three years ago. Will your comment from two years ago now finally be answered? Listen and find out!
-
Radio Free Skaro #137 - A Rose By Any Other Name...
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 12 minutes and 20 secondsWith a gulf of unrealistic (and unwelcome) lack of Doctor Who stretching far over the (event) horizon, The Three Who Rule took it upon themselves to deploy their deadliest weapon: the commentary. Specifically, a look at the first series of New Who, starting with Rose. Fantastic!
-
Radio Free Skaro #136 - The Wrath (and Hay Fever) of Ian Levine
Episode Duration: 36 minutes and 24 secondsThe Three Who Rule deal with a dearth of real news the best way they know how,: with inane chatter involving the likes of superfan Ian Levine and his escapades on Twitter, Warren's continuing animosity toward the McCoy era and coming to grips with our loving hatred of other Doctor Who podcasts all while dealing with technical issues that forced actual editing. Come join the fun!
-
Radio Free Skaro #135 - Mission to the Unknown
Episode Duration: 30 minutes and 54 secondsThis week's Radio Free Skaro Wednesday Cutaway special is so special that it's been elevated to a new category altogether - a Wednesday Episode! With an official number and everything! It's elevated status is on account of the return of Neil Perryman, of the TachyonTV Perrymans, as an extra special guest. We speak with him about his impending climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro, as well as the recent returns of Doctor Who and Red Dwarf. And if you listen really carefully you might even hear when the next TachyonTV podcast is due...
-
Radio Free Skaro #134 - The Planet of Michelle Ryan
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 9 minutes and 44 secondsThe Three Who Rule were in fine fettle this week, covering a wide swath of news involving all the exciting goings-on on Torchwood, the Sarah Jane Adventures and even Red Dwarf. Truly, this was a momentous week for fans of British sci-fi adventuring. Truly. No, really.

Radio Free Skaro #133 - The Anticipointment of Entercation
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 16 minutes and 50 secondsRadio Free Skaro welcomes back Katrina again as guest host, this time filling in for Warren, whose predilection for earning money to cover the cost of living prevented him from taking part this week. And, with the world of Doctor Who ramping up in advance of an actual new episode airing on April 11, there was plenty to talk about. But no spoilers! Spoilor has now been vanquished, so you may now listen to the show without fear of having future Who episodes ruined for you. As for the rest of the internet, you're on your own.
-
Radio Free Skaro #132 - The Bigger They Are
Episode Duration: 17 minutes and 16 secondsIn the next of the RFS Wednesday Cutaway episodes, with no interviews in the pipeline, the Three Who Rule decided to actually put together a special episode themselves where the topic of discussion is if or when they think their favourite show might have possibly ever so slightly jumped the shark, with the discussion also turning toward the social commentary and forward-thinking it exhibited over its lifespan. Join in and see if you agree with the conclusions.
Oh, and April Fools.
-
Radio Free Skaro #131 - The Sweet Serenade of Sarcastor
Episode Duration: 53 minutes and 46 secondsWith all three of the Three Who Rule firmly back in their respective command chairs, it was back to good old fashioned sniping, infighting and jocularity as Pedantor made battle with both his old nemesis Rubbishor and a new, more deadly enemy named Sarcastor. Somehow in the midst of this pantheon of perfidious poltroonery some discussion of Doctor Who came into play, but not by any means on purpose.
-
Radio Free Skaro interviews VFX genius Dennis Muren
Episode Duration: 11 minutes and 47 secondsNot strictly Doctor Who this week, but a cool interview all the same. The local chapter of SIGGRAPH (a group of computer graphics geniuses) brought Industrial Light and Magic special effects legend Dennis Muren to Vancouver, and Warren was able to interview him. Apologies for the dodgy audio during Warren's questions....the details are too boring to go into, but at any rate Muren's thoughts on visual effects, art and the motion picture industry are the good stuff.
-
Radio Free Skaro #130 - Invasion of the XX Chromosome
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 16 minutes and 49 secondsWith Steven currently roasting production codes out of his head under the fiery sun of Cuba, Chris and Warren decided mutiny was the appropriate response and welcomed Katrina (also known on Twitter as @xanister) to fill his gangly shoes. And not a moment too soon, as the Two Who Rule (and special guest) were inundated with a surfeit of news, both plausible and spoiler-diculous.
-
So You Want To Podcast Doctor Who: The Director's Cut
Episode Duration: 6 minutes and 56 secondsNow with more swearing! And some more keen insights from the fine fellows at Tachyon TV and Podshock, as well as the Three Who Rule, at the "So You Want to Podcast Doctor Who" panel at Gallifrey 2009.
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iQGVucGv_ic&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iQGVucGv_ic&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
-
Radio Free Skaro #129 - Digressionary Tactics
Episode Duration: 53 minutes and 28 secondsWith only Comic Relief and a mini-SJA episode (story?) starring a flatulent Ronnie Corbett, the Three Who Rule had little in the way of solid material to mold into gorgeous verbal statuary with their mellifluous locution this week. But thanks to the power of digression, they managed to unleash a torrent of nonsense almost unparalleled in the annals of Skarosian myth and legend. And all of it for you, dear listeners.
-
Radio Free Skaro Interviews Simon Guerrier
Episode Duration: 8 minutes and 30 secondsOur Wednesday Cutaway series continues with this, our chat with Simon Guerrier recorded at Gallifrey '09. Simon has written many a Doctor Who short story, as well as several Big Finish audio stories - about which you will hear now!
-
Radio Free Skaro #128 - In the Shadow of the Cyber-King
Episode Duration: 1 hour, 41 minutes and 2 secondsIn a surprising turn of events, this week's episode was chock full of news...an unwelcome development with a "The Next Doctor" commentary bearing down on the Three Who Rule like a Cyber-King hell-bent on justifying its own lack of continuity. Being the brave souls they are, your gallant hosts soldiered on and brought not only the most current of current events in all of Who-dom, but also a sterling commentary on David Morrissey's debut as the Next Doctor. Oh yes, and David Tennant made some sort of appearance as well.
-
Radio Free Skaro interviews Steve Roberts
Episode Duration: 8 minutes and 30 secondsIn our ongoing Wednesday special series featuring interviews and such from Gallifrey ‘09 in February (just to see how long we can milk it), we bring you an interview with Doctor Who Restoration Team impresario Steve Roberts, wherein he discusses past and future projects regarding the classic Who DVD series.
-
Radio Free Skaro #127 - The Rise of Rubbishor
Episode Duration: 43 minutes and 52 secondsThough the news was paltry (other than some serious SPOILERS for one of the upcoming specials near the 3/4 mark of the show), the Three Who Rule were able to bring their customary wit and verve to this week's proceedings, and even managed to create Rubbishor, a new crusader destined to unseat the cruel and debased rule of Pedantor. Watch this space for more exciting details on this clash of entirely fictional titans! Or...just listen to the podcast.

Radio Free Skaro - Gallifrey '09 Podcast Panel
Episode Duration: 53 minutes and 47 secondsAt Gallifrey '09, three of the most preeminent Doctor Who podcasts around - Podshock, Tachyon TV, and Radio Free Skaro - converged for a tell all panel entitled "So You Want To Podcast Doctor Who?", ready to dispense vital information to a room full of eager fans wanting to venture into the cutthroat world of podcasting.
With three panelists per podcast, the panel was chock full of on-air talent; it looked like the Yalta Conference of podcasting. Of course, occuring at 11:00 AM on a Saturday morning, the energy in the room was far from palpable. And the party only really began once Damon from Tachyon TV started dispensing beer to all who wanted one (some of the panelists had, at that point, barely stopped drinking since the previous afternoon). But the panel's main goal was achieved - there actually more people in the audience than on the panel.
Have a listen to the audio from the event here.
