It's Excellent!
I'd actually stopped watching Dr Who, I'll be honest, when Capaldi left and they cast a woman. Tar and feather me, I don't care. To quote Padme in Revenge of the Sith "you're going down a path that I can't follow." But, not wantng to be a miserable Tony Abbot or Kevin Rudd style ghost I left the fandom quite happy to move on with my life and leave those still interested to enjoy their show. And that was that until, about 3 years later "The Timeless Child" crash landed. I was seeing outrage from everywhere! Show ruined forever and wondered to myself "Could it really be thath bad?" So I decided to fin a Primary Source, so to speak, in podcast land and this was the one that came up. Two Aussies, like myself, having a reasonable and balanced conversation about this controversial episode. "Hey," I thought to myself "These two are rational actors." Over the next few months I went back and listened to their entire back catalogue and these two are excellent. Wonderful chemistry together and engaging conversation about a range of topics, sometimes covering entire eras of the show and sometimes an in depth analysis of a single EDA novel. You never feel like the podcast is a two man echo chamber as they disagree on plenty and both have tolerance for different opinions. Rob and Dave understand their medium and I haven't missed a show (apart from the hot takes) since finding it those 2-3 years ago. It's kept me connected to the fandom in some small way and finally replaced the dearly departed Doctor Who Podcast (yes, I know they're recording some episodes again, but where's Trevor?) as my Doctor Who podcast of choice.Read full review »

These guys have opinions and they're not afraid to share them. However, that being said, they demonstrate that in this day and age of "you're either with me or you're my enemy", fellow fans can disagree and still be friends.Read full review »
