Extra! - Prologue! Prologue! Prologue!
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 37 minutes and 48 secondsThis week we throw out our regularly scheduled topic (or rather, shelve it back into the spreadsheet) and talk about BBC Doctor Who prologues! That's right, the BBC surprised us with some series 9 Capaldi goodness, and we just couldn't hold back. In addition, we cover some of the other internet-only prologue action the BBC has tossed our way over the years. (Note: If you're looking for speculation and a frame-by-frame breakdown, you have come to the wrong podcast, my friend.)
Oh yeah, and Erika is over the moon because it's not called a "prequel"!

Ep 86 - The First of Peladon
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 1 secondWe close out our companion miniseries in fine style with Liz's pick, "The Curse of Peladon". Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Liz as we discuss Jo's merits as a companion. They are many--especially in this story. There's a lot of Jo love, dissension among the ranks as to which Peladon story is better, and even some soul-searching. It's quite an episode!
What do you think about Jo? Is she as awesome as the Verities think? Or do you still see her as a useless screamer? Let us know in the comments!

Ep 85 - Snack Orchid (The Adric Story)
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 15 minutes and 6 secondsThis week it's Lynne's turn to pick a companion-tastic story, and bafflingly, she chose Nyssa in "Black Orchid". Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we discuss all the companions in "Black Orchid". Lynne does have some strong reasons why Nyssa shines here. Deb thinks it's a stronger Tegan story. And Erika discovers it's her new favorite Adric story. It may be a short story, but with the crowded TARDIS of the fifth Doctor era, there are lots of companions to go around!
What do you think of this story? Would you have picked a different Nyssa story? Or can you think of other reasons this is a goor one for her? And do you find Adric boring? Charming? Annoying? Let us know in the comments!
And remember, you have about a week left to contribute to the Uncanny Magazine Year Two Kickstarter and make an extra difference thanks to an amazing Verity! listener!

Ep 84 - The Time Meddler vs a New Time Team
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 21 minutes and 1 secondThis week it's Tansy's turn to pick a companion-tastic story. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Tansy as we discuss Vicki and Steven in "The Time Meddler", their relationship to each other, and their relationships to the Doctor. This is really the first episode of a new type of companion/Doctor team. Not only that, but it's a really interesting episode for the Doctor, and we veer into that territory more than a little.
What do you think of this story? Are Vicki and Steven a great team? Do you like how the Doctor interacts with them (and gets to go off on his own as they explore without him)? Let us know in the comments!

Ep 84 - The Time Meddler vs a New Time Team
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 21 minutes and 1 secondThis week it's Tansy's turn to pick a companion-tastic story. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Tansy as we discuss Vicki and Steven in "The Time Meddler", their relationship to each other, and their relationships to the Doctor. This is really the first episode of a new type of companion/Doctor team. Not only that, but it's a really interesting episode for the Doctor, and we veer into that territory more than a little.
What do you think of this story? Are Vicki and Steven a great team? Do you like how the Doctor interacts with them (and gets to go off on his own as they explore without him)? Let us know in the comments!

Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Tansy as we cover Erika's pick, "The Power of Three". The Ponds' penultimate story is rife with companion-based themes--to the detriment of what little plot there is.
How do you feel about the interactions between the Doctor, Amy, and Rory in "The Power of Three"? Does it give you enough to chew on so that you can ignore the weak story? (Or do you disagree and think the story is amazing?) Let us know in the comments!

Extra! - Ask (Two) Verities!
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 52 minutes and 39 secondsWelcome to a one-of-a-kind episode of Verity! Join Erika and Liz as we try to figure out a way to salvage a recording session gone horribly wrong. (Well, if you consider having only two Verities horribly wrong. As it turned out, it worked pretty well if we do say so ourselves.) Liz had the bright idea to take questions from the listeners--practically in real time! So that's exactly what we did.
Huge thanks to the listeners who tweeted us questions and made this whole thing possible! If you have questions you'd like to hear us answer in the future, please leave them in the comments!

Ep 77 - TARDIS Tots & the Doctor as Dad
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 37 secondsThis week we're talking about the "kids" in the TARDIS. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we talk about the Doctor as a father figure and orphans in the TARDIS. So how does the Doctor do as a parental unit? Is he a trustworthy adult-type? Or as childish as the youngsters he takes in? Or does it vary by era? (Spoiler: it varies!) And as this is the year of the companion, we spend a good amount of time chatting about the young(ish) orphans themselves.
What do you think of the-Doctor-as-parent and the young'uns who travel with him? Let us know in the comments!
