247: It’ll Never Get That Bad Again (The Day of the Doctor)

We’re out of it now.

This week Kiyan and Dylan finally put the first 50 years of the podcast to rest. I mean the first 50 years of Doctor Who. Same thing in the end, really, when you think about it. The podcast has existed as long as the show has, didn’t you know that? I thought it was common knowledge but I suppose there is a possibility that it wasn’t. Well now you know. It’s The Day of the Doctor, written by Steven Moffat and aired on November 23, 2013.

Show-notes:

5:45 The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot. Knock yourself out.
7:37 The Night of the Doctor and The Last Day.
18:00 Pretty much every source out there ranks these differently. Some don’t include non-elected leaders and some don’t count Donald Trump as a politician. Here’s just one list. The one I was looking at obviously forgot to include Narendra Modi. Also the queen of Jordan’s name is Rania Al-Abdullah.
24:39 Check out our Blake’s 7 podcast, Zenith.
29:19 Based on these medieval manuscripts, it looks like last millennia’s royal weddings were attended more by nobles than by normal people.
37:21 Genesis of the Remembrance.
38:29 Harry Sullivan did leave in Terror of the Zygons.

Special 5: The Three Year Anniversary!

We have anniversaries. Podcasts are built on anniversaries.

Yes three years in, and we’re still sitting in front of a microphone every single week just to talk about some nonsense inconsequential television show from fifty years ago. Here’s a look forward for you, we won’t catch up to where the show is right now (The Return of Doctor Mysterio) until 9/22/19. Yes, 2019. We’re here for a minimum of 3 more years. You’re welcome.

Show-notes:

00:45 Who made this stuff up?
1:20 You can listen to that too. Here.

You can find us at our regular places. Be sure to follow to be updated on our “The Trust Your Doctor Full Classic Retrospectivaganza” schedule. It starts on the 23rd of April, by the way, because we record stuff a week in advance. 🙂

144: Oh Great, The Whomobile (The Two Doctors)

*Whomobile does not actually appear.

This week, the slog through season 22 continues. Luckily our distress call was heard by The Second Doctor and Jamie, so they’re shown up to spice up the serial a bit. It’s the Two Doctors, written by Robert Holmes and aired in February and March of 1985.

Show-notes:

3:44 Looks like it was just retconned. Just like how they retconned the Third Doctor into being a world champion hula hooper. Definitely not making this up. Seriously. Look it up if you don’t believe me.

Book 2: It’s Fun to Have Fun (The English Way of Death) Ft. Flight Through Entirety

I’ve been told that having fun is pretty great.

This is a very special episode of Trust Your Doctor. Before I get into that, can I mention how difficult titling this is? “Ft. Flight Through Entirety” is the most space saving way to credit the crossover, but it’s not entirely accurate. We only got two hosts (again) of Flight Through Entirety, although this time it’s Nathan and Richard rather than Nathan and Brendan. It’ll do as a title though, as it is rather representative of the episode anyway. Didn’t I make this same point last time?

Well anyway, this crossover we talk (yet again) about a Doctor Who novel from the wilderness years. Let me stop you again, and rephrase that a bit more accurately. The hosts attempt to talk about a Doctor Who novel, with…. varying degrees of success. This time it’s The English Way of Death, written by Gareth Roberts and published on the 21st of March, 1996. It was recently republished (in 2015) as part of the Doctor Who History Collection, and you can find that republish on Amazon. The English Way of Death takes place immediately after The Romance of Crime (another Gareth Roberts novel), which takes place between Creature From the Pit and Nightmare of Eden.

If you want more Flight Through Entirety (let’s be honest, who wouldn’t?), be sure to check them out at their wonderful internet locales below.
