Latest Podcast Episodes

If Radio Free Skaro was ever made into a lackluster dystopian future series of adventures for the tween set (which it won't, ever), it would have to be called "Digression," because that was the tenor of the first few minutes of this episode. Eurovision is rightly disparaged, Warren is baffled by football, and Steven vainly (sort of) tries to get things back on track by lovingly describing Peter Capaldi's swelling bouffant. Gross. But there's also a commentary for the Jamie Mathieson penned "Mummy on the Orient Express," featuring Reality Bomb's own Alex Kennard! You have 66 seconds to start listening!

Deep within the disused World War Two pedalo pens on Diddly Dum Island lurks a familar shape. A full-sized Lego replica of Stingray waiting to take our podcasting heroes on a global tour of Doctor Who’s underwater story locations.

Gasp as you visit with us the ruins of ancient Atlantis. Thrill as we’re chased along the beach outside HMS Seaspite by angry Lego executives. Shudder as we enter a pitched battle with the Merkyr. Blanch as we milk the Skarasen for lactic fluid for our tea.

Along the way, we reveal the links between Seabase Four and TV game show 3-2-1, and we explain the importance of ankles in an underwater environment. Only on Diddly Dum.

A warp ellipse draws the TARDIS onto what appears to be a stranded starliner. Nyssa and Tegan become separated from the Doctor; not in space, but 6 years into the past, while the Doctor has to deal with a curious schoolboy named Turlough, who has got himself mixed up with an old enemy. The Doctor’s old friend, the Brigadier, is enjoying life as a school teacher, but why doesn't he remember the Doctor at all?

We're back! Having required new livers as part of the recovery process from DFW Whofest (thank you, David and Marty), we're back to our regularly scheduled programming: giving you elongated reviews and inane discussion about Doctor Who episodes.

We've thrown the proverbial dart and this time it's landed on "Face of Evil", the Fourth Doctor story that marked Leela's debut. Are you Team Sevateem or Team Tesh? Find out which we are in our latest contribution to the world of Doctor Who podcastery.

Please send us feedback to tardistavern@gmail.com. We'll read it out loud in a voice of your choosing! Also look for us on Facebook and follow Sean on Twitter via @tardistavern.

Apart from things looking a little different around here with a snazzy new design the podcast is rockin’ and rollin’ as usual. We’ve got some interesting news to get through and then onto our review of grey-ish blue aliens, travelling entertainers and Drashigs.

The News

Wether you agree or disagree with his direction over the last few years, it seems Moffat is here to stay for at least series 10. It seems he’s not done with Who just yet and there’s more stories he wants to explore which leads us onto...

Steven Moffat is at odds with the 12th Doctor himself Peter Capaldi regarding the Doctor’s feelings towards Clara. Moffat believes the Doctor has always fancied Clara while Capaldi disagrees and is obviously not comfortable with that theory. We’ll see how that one plays out in series 9.

One of those “weird” ones for you, comic book fans will be upset to learn that a Doctor Who/Spider-Man crossover has been cancelled. Yes, Marvel’s web slinger was due to cross-over with the Doctor, presumably within comics, but after five years of development it’s been canned.

Talking of comics, Titan have a summer comic event lined up consisting of a one-off five issue run but what’s cool is issue one will feature John Hurt’s War Doctor. Will definitely have that one on pre-order.

Lastly, those of you subscribing to the global BBC iPlayer outside of the UK, the service is being discontinued as of June 26th. Apparently the BBC are launching a new digital media subscription service but we’re not sure on timings, we’ll let you all know when we do.

“Carnival of Monsters” Review

Lot’s going on in this week’s review episode as we talk through this Pertwee classic. The Doctor and Jo find themselves trapped within a travelling entertainer’s Miniscope along with other “aliens”. Do we get excited for this one or scream like Drashigs?

This week’s trivia question

Last episode we asked you – In the episode Midnight, what was the waterfall made of? The answer is Sapphires.

This week’s question is – What is the name of the Impossible Planet? Send us your answer on Twitter or Facebook. Good luck!

Thank you for getting on touch with your thoughts on this week’s review episode. Next week we’re going back to the brilliant Matt Smith era with The Lodger. Have a great weekend and enjoy if you’re going to the Symphonic Spectacular in London. Until next time – Allons-y!

On episode 155 of The Oncoming Storm, things are a little bit weird around Oncoming Storm HQ. No, it has nothing to do with this week's story, the New Adventure Sanctuary, by David A McIntee. It has more to do with the fact that on the day of recording, our expected threesome for the night became a duo after Ashley's wife goes into labor two weeks early! It throws off *all* of the carefully laid plans the podcast had this week, but Josh and Rachel do their best to go it alone. They talk news, medieval France, and the best gosh durn Benny showcase since her debut. And what's this crazy talk about a hiatus? Find out, on the season finale of The Oncoming Storm! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got a baby! Well, now we do; we didn't when this was recorded. But he had to come out eventually right?

In which Brandon got so drunk he's forgotten everything that's happened in this episode. So.

This week, we dig into more Torchwood, starting with "Something Borrowed" and barrelling right into "From Out Of The Rain". They eventually get around to talking about them, but slur wildly off into comics talk and how to socialize without books. Oh and Brandon goes off on some wild tangents, and Danica just let's it happen, because it's funnier that way.

In this very special episode of Trust Your Doctor where we read a book, Kiyan and Dylan are joined by Nathan and Brendan from Flight Through Entirety. So I guess the title is a misnomer since we didn’t get all of Flight Through Entirety on the show. Could you imagine a show with that many people? Well anyway, the quatro attempt to discuss the inner workings and the plot line of Last of the Gaderene, a Third Doctor novel written by Mark Gatiss and originally published in January 2000, later republished in 2013. Last of the Gaderene takes place between Planet of the Daleks and The Green Death. Maybe we’ll read more books in the future. Who knows?
