349: Can’t Wait for the Absorbaloff to Come Back (The Vanquishers)

You heard it here first, from the podcast that the show is based on rather than the other way around ™.

The end of our first season that we podcasted along with the episodes as they aired. So that’s gotta be something important in our history right? And three episodes from now we’ll basically have finished up this whole era on the podcast, with our first podcast along regeneration episode. Anyway, it’s The Vanquishers, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on December 5, 2021.


Show-notes:
1:20:  Spoiler Alert: How to Pronounce did not help.
1:46: The clip I found is the beginning of this interview with Azhur Saleem and Jamie Magnus Stone.
7:40: I tried to find out if “tapestratic” was a word, and it is not. (Editor’s note: But as always, you can find it being used online in, you guessed it, an academic(-ish) article: Becoming-Jaguar: Escaping Dialectical Negation Through Monistic Process Metaphysics)
9:22: Check out our movie trilogy podcast, Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast.
24:17: The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument is cool as hell and you should all check it out. Tweet me if you have any questions about it, I love my work.
24:34: Just outing my github, I suppose, but here’s the code I wrote that gets run every night on any data we take.
24:55: Wikipedia cites an internal memo from Barry Letts where he names The Master explicitly because it’s another academic degree like a doctorate. This memo, however, 404’s so I’ll just link Wikipedia.
