„Ich will den immer Kevin nennen. Ich weiß gar nicht warum.“

Es ist wirklich nicht schön, nach so langer Abwesenheit direkt mit einer Triggerwarnung zu beginnen. Zumal das sonst so gar nicht unsere Art ist. Aber dieses Mal sehen wir uns quasi gezwungen. Wenn Ihr also niemals wissen wolltet, auf welche Pornoseiten André so geht und was er (sogar live in diesem Podcast) mit seinem Sonic Screwdriver so anstellt, solltet Ihr dringend darauf verzichten, diese Episode zu hören.
Allerdings würde Euch dann auch die Besprechung von “Eve of the Daleks”, (leider veraltete) News, liebe Post, das erste Item in unserer 2022-Box und die Auflösung diverser Gewinnspiele entgehen.

On the thirty-fourth edition of Reality Bomb, we're celebrating 500 issues of Doctor Who Magazine with Jim Sangster and Jon Arnold as they discuss the secret of DWM's longevity and the happiest times and places in the magazine's history. We also bring together NPR's Petra Mayer and Kathleen Schowalter to discuss their experiences as fans of the modern series coming to the classic series. And it's the 20th anniversary of the 1996 Doctor Who TV movie and we have very special guest Deborah Stanish on hand to discuss its inclusion in the Gallery of the Underrated. All this plus listeners letters and a time travel adventure only two Doctor Who fans could do!

In an episode that Phil and Paul have been dreading, they are forcibly sat down and made to watch World War Three in their continuing series 1 retrospective. With badly acted news reporters, Mickey's chip shop condiments and the ridiculous Slitheen, the pair of them try their damnedest to find some good in this story!

And in the news, screenings of the Christmas special are to occur in Canada and the North of England, Shada DVD news, we say goodbye to Keith Baron and Rodney Bewes and in Omega's Tat Corner there is an item of tat that you can pull nice and tight around your neck!

Welcome to a special recorded-at-Gallifrey-One-in-Los-Angeles edition of Doctor Who Literature. While Jason the Brooklyn boy is somewhat out of his element in this big big city, he's joined long-distance by a fellow Brooklynite to discuss Malcolm Hulke's glorious August 1975 paean to the common man and laborer.

The first half of the book features Jason's breakdown of the text of the book, adapted from a three-part blog post originally published in February 2017.

The second half sees Hannah Long, a freelance writer and commentator, discuss "Doctor Who and the Green Death" from a different perspective to Jason's own, but they do find a lot of common ground to like about the book. You can find Hannah's writings about Doctor Who here and please look her up on Twitter as well.

This episode features musical selections from the legendary Woody Guthrie and the incomparable Mandy Patinkin.
