Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

And the long-awaited (heh) part 2 of Radio Free Skaro #8, in which we chronicle "Doomsday," the climactic final episode of the second season, is now up on the Internets. Next week we'll wait a couple more days than usual in order to properly review "Torchwood," the new (and apparently quite violent and racy) Dr. Who spinoff. Enjoy!

Bit of a different one...Steven and I were at the same place at the same time, so we decided to do a "live" two parter where we do commentary for Army of Ghosts and Doomsday. Up to you if we pulled it off, but here's part one of this epic experiment in audio audaciousness. Allons-y!

Steven and I get down to the crappier episodes of Season 2 of Dr. Who, with some slapping about of Love and Monsters (which I maintain ain't that bad) and Fear Her (terrible!) We also examine bad episodes from the Classic Who years, give a shout out to our fan Martin Frobisher, and reveal our upcoming "live" podcast in Edmonton..which will be the two of us doing a commentary track to the Season 2 finale. Neato! As per usual, the show can be heard on the web and downloaded through the feed, or via this direct link.

Yes, Steven and I managed to juggle our schedules and get RFS Numero Six out the door tonight. Much gushing about the Impossible Planet and Satan pit two-parter, some kvetching about DVD vendors and their lack of Who respect, and formative plans for a live episode in a couple of weeks time, as I will be in Edmonton over the weekend. We might even have to videotape that one, just to be total dorks.

Just a few days after the delayed episode 4 comes episode 5, where we discuss "The Idiot's Lantern," then veer off into the many and various ways Dr. Who has addressed social issues of the day. Somehow we managed to break the 34 minute mark with this rich vein of discussion.

Again with the technical difficulties! First we had a file up and die on us, then Steven's microphone generated a truly astounding amount of hum. Through it all we soldiered on, and now bring you the delayed but complete Radio Free Skaro, episode 4. We discuss the Girl in the Fireplace and the first Cybermen two-parter, then veer wildly off course and talk about webisodes, the Internet, and why there won't be any new Gallifrey episodes (and whether or not that's a good thing). At any rate, thanks for waiting and putting up with our technical troubles, and hope you all enjoy the podcast. We'll try to get #5 out sometime this weekend.

Delayed by wonky email, cut off by flaky Internet connections, and menaced by a hornet during the podcast......this one was a bit of a slog. But have no fear, Whovians, Warren and Steven have battled it out and present episode 3 of Radio Free Skaro to you in all its insect killing, Who discussing glory. We covered Tooth and Claw and School Reunion, and then veered off into touching Classic Who moments and cool death scenes.

Warren and Steve talk about the Christmas Invasion and New Earth, genuflect on the glory of Pyramids of Mars, and discuss some new rumours and scuttlebutt.

Freyburg and I Am Steven discuss the classic series, the new series, some of the differences between the two, some current news about the new series and North American DVD releases, and Freyburg manages to slag Phantom of the Opera. Be kind, it's our first episode.
