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.

132: Until We’re At Satan (The King’s Demons)

Only 66 more to go…

Who thought that a serial with the Master of all characters could be so horribly boring? THE MASTER! And it didn’t help that Terence Dudley has been consistently declining in quality since his first outing. It’s The King’s Demons, written by Terence Dudley and aired in March of 1983.


Show-notes:


0:28 We’re talking about the cool Iron Maiden, not the torture device.
5:40 Thank god I didn’t grow up in the 80s.
9:38 WOW.
11:51 Here’s more about beds in the middle ages. I say we all go back to straw. It probably builds character.
13:27 Apparently it was “rare” to do so. But I say more people should start doing it in real life. It probably builds character.
20:15 And who you never see again.
