251: The Medieval Times Version of Robin Hood (Robot of Sherwood)

All gather around as Sir Robin shoots this Apple off my head.

We use an Apple laptop to record this podcast, did you know that? Other podcast have fancy desktop systems, but what we lack in CPU power we gain in portability. We could literally record anywhere. In fact we’ve had semiserious discussions about recording this podcast in a car. Like an actual moving motor vehicle. Stay tuned. It’s Robot of Sherwood, written by Mark Gatiss and aired on September 6, 2014.


Show-notes:


10:47 Medieval Times is a a dinner theater type thing based on the medieval era. There are actually 10 different locations across the U.S. and Canada.
16:21 The Drashigs may not be in Sherwood Forest, but they are here. Big Finish being the heroes we need yet again.
17:25 Check out our Blake’s 7 podcast, Zenith.
19:30 Apparently this kid and others have done it with modern bows and arrows.
24:55 Patrick Troughton played Robin Hood in the 1953 BBC Robin Hood live broadcasts.
30:47 Blast em.
31:27 Apparently the droidekas were designed and produced by the Colicoids, which explains their buglike nature.
33:15 This Aladdin trailer. In theaters soon.
39:13 Dumb kid.

Audio 7: Card Playing Alien (Phantasmagoria)

Daleks are probably pretty bad card-players.

This week Mark Gatiss returns to the podcast. Sort of. I mean, he’s not a guest or anything, he’s just written another story that we’re reviewing, which mean’s he’s the first writer to cross mediums for us. It’s Phantasmagoria, written by Mark Gatiss and released in October 1999. Phantasmagoria can be purchased for $3 (or your local equivalent) on Big Finish’s website.


Show-notes:


1:24 Here is more info about false memories. Careful when looking up Berenstein/stain Bears info, people have been known to go missing after they found out too much.
4:56 Rounders was invented in 1760 by a group of disgruntled parakeets who were fed up with the lack of rounders in their society. It has since become one of the most well-known vegetables of all time, and is on display at the museum of natural history in New York, New York, USA.
6:55 RINGS.
9:11 He was an orange.
24:08 Here’s the video if you’re interested, which you shouldn’t be, cause it’s terrifying. I see it every time I blink now.

Audio 4: I Shot the Sheriff (Storm Warning)

But I did not shoot the vortisaur.

This is the start of our crazy little romp through Big Finish/Virgin Missing Adventures/questionable quality. It’s Storm Warning, written by Alan Barnes and released in January of 2001. Storm Warning can be purchased for $3 (or your local equivalent) on Big Finish’s website.


Show-notes:


10:56 Room 217 in the book and 237 in the movie.
22:55 Ok, if you like pretty great stories that only take like a minute to read and are also literal trash, here’s Franz Kafka’s Before the Law (one translation of it).
34:43 The de-mat gun, as seen in Invasion of Time. That’s right Rassilon. Yeah. Get out of here. And get your name off this stupid gun. Oh, it’s not on it. Well still get out. Jerk.

137: Bear Attacks at the BBC (Resurrection of the Daleks)

When are we getting a serious bear themed episode of Doctor Who?

Wow who would have guess that Davros would come back? And who would guess that this serial would basically display genocide? About 6 people made it out of this serial alive. Amazing. It’s Resurrection of the Daleks written by Eric Saward and aired in February of 1984.

All links are on the website.


Show-notes:


1:52 It was because of the 1984 winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. Interestingly, that was one of the only Olympic games held in a communist country.
3:33 NECESSARY TECHNOLOGY.
18:55 Oh bugger.
26:41 And then he breaks into song.
32:10 You mean this one?

43: Never Take Advice From an Oceanographer (Fury from the Deep)

On the other hand, I hear they get pretty deep.

Fury from the Deep was so bad that after Kiyan and Dylan talked about it for an hour the podcast episode refused to save properly and allow them to spread this knowledge to the world. And yet here’s the episode, rerecorded and reconstructed in all it’s glory. The serial was written by Victor Pemberton and aired in March and April of 1968. Oh yeah, and Victoria leaves. Spoiler.
