Doctor DC Podcast
This episode was scheduled for release before... everything. If you're seeing this, then... it worked... Though I can’t say how, or why, or who’s really responsible. We recorded this as our 500th episode. I won’t explain what you’re about to hear. Not here. Let the episode speak for itself. Let it be canon. Let it be chaos. Let it be... Doctor DC. Ciao ciao. —Producer Richard Intro Music by For more information... visit our And our

The countdown is nearly over. And something is wrong. Another lost episode has clawed its way out of the Speed Force, this one barely holding together, like it’s been caught between timelines for too long. Glitches are more frequent. Questions are answered twice. Segments echo and collapse into each other. Producer Richard appears and disappears mid-sentence. Time has no meaning. We don’t know how this episode came back. We’re not sure we came back. One thing is clear: the podcast is breaking. And someone—some thing—is pushing it toward collapse. This is the final lost episode before...

The podcast is in flux. As the Speed Force continues to wreak havoc on the podcast, the chrono-audio instabilities in the timeline are shaking loose hosts and summoning others. Not a true guest, with proper guest credit, but a completely different host entirely. Another lost episode shakes loose from the void as Producer Richard vanishes entirely. Is he dead? Is he lazy? It's impossible to tell. But one thing is certain...the April to May to 500 is straining the very structure of the show. Can we even make it to 500? And if we do...at what cost?

The Speed Force is getting weirder. Chrono-audio instability is increasing, and with it, the timeline of the podcast continues to unravel. Another lost episode from the same past DocMas™ has re-emerged, fully formed but with some... irregularities. Distortions. Echoes. Time travel awareness, and references to the past and the future. We don't know why the Speed Force is doing this, but someone—or something—is clearly orchestrating these recoveries. The delay of episode 500 is no longer a glitch. It's a strategy. The past continues to bleed into the present. Intro Music by ...

As we approach the 500th episode, an unstable surge in chrono-audio energy has begun to affect the timeline of the podcast—classic Speed Force nonsense. According to leading experts (Cosmic DC), the Speed Force has become self-aware and is now deliberately opening micro-temporal rifts to delay the release of episode 500. Why? Unknown. Possibly out of fear. Possibly out of pettiness. Possibly because Producer Richard once called it “a narrative crutch to explain his failure.” Whatever the cause, as we begin careening toward 500, these long-lost episodes are now being flung back into...
