Episode 47: It’s a Better Quarry! (Games)

In the end it’s still just a quarry though.

This podcast isn’t just a game, you know. I think everybody thinks it’s just a game, because we have so much fun, but this is serious business. This podcast has a serious following and serious work that goes into it. So don’t be deceived. It’s Games, written by Bill Lyons and aired on November 16, 1981.


Show-notes:


4:42 Transmission of Matter Through Interstitial Time, or TOMTIT for all you laypeople out there, first appeared in The Time Monster and later made another appearance in The Quantum Archangel.
14:31 Rocky 4 really took the franchise in a bold new direction.
35:47 Warehouse 13 is the sequel to Warehouse 12.
38:20 Bastard swan
47:20 Thanks, St. Clinton and Chris Ridd.
53:52 A few sources say Paul Darrow had his legs amputated (one above the knee, one below) because of an aortic aneurysm. The second link is that sci-fi prop forum I linked to a long time ago by the way.

Audio 6: A Lesser Disneyland Experience (The Nightmare Fair)

Maybe we shouldn’t ride Pirates of the Caribbean ride then.

This week it seems we’ve jumped a time-track. We’ll get it back on track shortly, I just need to recalibrate my time scanner… thing. Look, I’ve read the TARDIS manual and I still have absolutely no idea what this part is so I guess I’m just going to throw it out. It’s The Nightmare Fair, written by Graham Williams, adapted by John Ainsworth, and released in November of 2009. The Nightmare Fair can be purchased for $13 (or your local equivalent) on Big Finish’s website.


Show-notes:

0:41 Jamie Robertson’s Doctor Who theme for the Mary Shelly stories.
3:41 More about the Lost Stories audio range and a full list of lost stories.
4:14 Which is The Masters of Luxor. This story is set in Las Vegas, but was rejected for being too unrealistic since it didn’t feature any mafia members. This also made it unreleaseistic, so it never got made.
4:25 That one’s easy to remember, it’s called Genesis of the Genesis of the Ice Warriors of the Daleks.
4:49 The Queen of Time ft. The Queen of Time.
8:37 Nara Dreamland was a Japanese theme park inspired by Disney that opened in 1961 and closed in 2006.
8:50 The same channel as in the link above exploring Six Flags New Orleans.
9:18 A couple articles about Kowloon Walled City. They tore it down more than 20 years ago, but I wish I could’ve seen it in person.
9:52 Judge Dredd is a comic book series/character. There were a couple movie adaptations, including one in 1995, one in 2012. According to the Wikipedia page for Mega City One, where the story takes place, it wasn’t inspired by KWC.
20:11 Maybe this is the article about time going slower when you’re a kid, I don’t know. It’s tl;dr so I have no idea what it says either. Feel free to check it out though. I sure as heck won’t stop you.
26:32 No.

53: It’s the Time Lords, Messing With Our Brains! (The War Games 6-10)

If I could recognizably type out the rhythm to a sad song, I would.

[This is a Video Episode!] This week Kiyan and Dylan finish up The War Games, and then take a teary eyed look back at the Second Doctor, and his companions Jamie and Zoe. The War Games was written by Malcolm Hulke and Terrance Dicks and the second half aired in April and June of 1969.
