A little too much negativity...
This podcast is great for supplying Doctor Who fans with the latest information, either legitimate news or speculative rumors. Unfortunately, though, when it comes to other information relating to Doctor Who (such as episode reviews), the hosts (two specifically) have a tendency to be too negative. I enjoy the diversity of having multiple view points regarding an episode, both positive and negative; however, when hosts continue to negatively drone on and on regarding issues, it becomes obnoxious and annoying. The negativity from one of the hosts regarding Love and Monsters has gone on far too long; however, that is merely an example. Did these same horrible comments and reactions from fans to Doctor Who in the 80s lead to its 'hiatus?' Let's not see that happen again! The hosts admit that they have an appreciation for having the show back on the air; however, they don't seem to portray that appreciation in their comments. I am VERY appreciative that Doctor Who is back on the air with new episodes, regardless of weak or strong plots/storylines. Can't we enjoy them ALL without the verbal bashing?Read full review »

More reviews of Doctor Who: Podshock
The sad thing is, I always get dissapointed by most other Who podcasts. I like to listen to PodShock at work, so when I'm out of you guys, I end up going to lame casts like Bad Wolf Radio. Boo to those guys. This show is where it's at! LOVE the interviews!

They don't half natter on self-indulgently in jarring accents about The Daarkderr, though about a third of every 90-minute episode is well worth it. Please, couldn't you get it under three-quarters of an hour?Read full review »

I've been listening to Podshock for about 3 years. I've been a Supporting Subscriber for a little over a year. It's like being a member of your local PBS station. In fact the whole show has the feel of a local AM station talk radio show. Louis, Ken and James couldn't be more knowledgeable...Read full review »
