Extra - Happy Things at Chicago TARDIS
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 25 minutes and 33 secondsChicago TARDIS was, once again, a delightful experience for Lynne and Erika. They are joined by honorary-Verity, Amber Ensign (Erika's sister!) as they discuss what made this year's con great.
Apologies if you were expecting a special live version of "In Defense Of". We had a blast doing it on the main stage this year, but the tech gods were not with us, alas.
If you were there in person and would like to share some memories of the con, please feel free to do so in the comments!

Extra! - Quel Dommaged Goods
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 56 minutes and 12 secondsIt's another bookish Extra! Join Deb, Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we look at another first. This time it's Russell T Davies' first published Doctor Who work, his New Adventures novel Damaged Goods. This is another very grown-up-themed tome, and the Verities react as such. Some really enjoy it, others not as much. But as always, it's a great discussion! (Though we do, necessarily, venture into some rather adult territory in the course of the discussion, so sensitive/young listeners may want to beware.)
Have you read this one? If so, what do you think of it? And can you see any RTD-isms poking up in this early work? Let us know in the comments!
