This week, Nathan, Todd and Peter relax in a cafe just by Cardiff Bay and reminisce about that one time we had to run away naked from a scary guy with massive tusks. And we also find time to chat about Boom Town.

Notes and Links

We get so absorbed in our discussion of the story, that we basically forget to discuss tropes and Terileptils and German Expressionism. So no links this week.

Oh, okay, here's The AV Club's take on Boom Town, written in 2014.

Follow us!

Nathan is on Twitter as @nathanbottomley and Todd is @toddbeilby. Peter is simply nowhere to be found. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam, and the strings performance was by Jane Aubourg. You can follow the podcast on Twitter at @FTEpodcast.

We're also on Facebook, and you can check out our website at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on iTunes, or we'll high-handedly dismiss all your favourite fan theories about the significance of the phrase Bad Wolf.

Jodie into Terror

Every week on Jodie into Terror we discuss our first reactions to the latest episode of Series 11. Last week, we discussed Arachnids in the UK, and we'll be back this Tuesday with a discussion of Episode 5. You can find Jodie into Terror at jodieintoterror.com, @JodieIntoTerror and on Apple Podcasts.

Bondfinger

Over on Bondfinger, we have commentary podcasts on every single James Bond film. If you don't know where to start, we can recommend our most deeply absurd commentary on a famously absurd Bond film -- Moonraker.

You can find Bondfinger at bondfinger.com, and on Twitter at @bondfingercast.

What is a word really? It's a collection of sounds and meaning, but as the Sixth Doctor and Peri are about to find out, that can be very powerful. Even more so when the word itself is self aware and self replicating, infecting mind after mind. That just leaves one question, how do you stop an intelligent meme?

WHY WOULD YOU SUGGEST IT?

On this week's show, Brandon goes it alone... sort of... as Danica's phobia of spiders comes into play. Thankfully, Kat from Verity is on hand, as a great guest host to talk about the series 11 episode... (checks papers) "Arachnids in the U.K." Which is almost definitely about space unicorns and not spiders. Almost definitely.

Outro music is a metal cover of Sex and the City we found on the internet.

A era das bruxas esta de volta! E Sabrina e uma das principais responsaveis por abrir esse portal!

O post OffTopicast 06(66) – O Mundo Sombro de Sabrina! Abrace o CAOS! apareceu primeiro em Doctor Who Brasil.

It’s been a while since Doctor Who meant something beyond how clever the show runner could be (or thought they were). And certainly we’ve encountered historical figures before, but perhaps none so influential as Rosa Parks. The most recent episode “Rosa” might be from our friends across the pond, but they leave no doubt that she changed the world… and beyond. Forgive us if we eschew some of our usual jokey times fun – even The Arrow of Time can be serious, especially when an episode set in the past all too clearly highlights the issues of today.

Welcome to Episode 207...

No news or merch this week.
