146: The Wheel in Space
Krynoid PodCast
After a series of scrapes with mercury vapour, a robot and a food machine, things get even worse for the Doctor and Jamie. They fetch up on the latest base-under-insane-leadership and meet some old enemies and a smart-arsed new friend. Are three digits really better than five? Brother, can you spare a Bernalium rod (for a hungry cybermat)? Could you identify a Hercules Cluster in a blindfolded smell test? And did Jim and Martin find the story 'fantastic' or was it spinning its wheels? Listen to find out! Special mention to Iz and Steve Skinner for their wonderful of the missing...

145: Genesis of the Daleks
Krynoid PodCast
Three wise time travellers journey in search of the darkest of nativities, meeting some lowly creatures and a highly unstable messiah. Harry develops a seafood allergy, Sarah's a fallen woman and the Doctor finds that navigating Skaro can be a bit of a minefield. Why does Sevrin like steamy nightclubs? Where do Davros and Nyder spend their romantic getaways? Which part of a Dalek's intestines is the most dangerous? And would Jim and Martin put Genesis of the Daleks up among the gods or did watching it reveal to them the true meaning of pain? Listen to find out! This episode can...

144: The Aztecs
Krynoid PodCast
Barbara's penchant for historical re-enactment gets our intrepid time team into a spot of bother down old Mexico way. While she cosplays as a dead bloke, the Doctor and Susan try to dodge a double wedding and Ian has to use his thumb for more than hitchhiking. Will Susan get spiked, Ian skewered and Babs bricked up? Worse still, will the Doctor get hitched? Will Tlotoxl change his name by Deed Poll or will Martin have a stroke? And did Jim and Martin find The Aztecs to be like a comforting cup of cocoa or a goblet of cold poison? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found...

143: Carnival of Monsters
Krynoid PodCast
We're used to looking at a screen and seeing dodgy creatures attacking a pair of plucky adventurers. With Carnival of Monsters, you can watch other folk doing the same thing. It's like Gogglebox with grey aliens. Can a chota peg really solve any behemoth-based problem? How easy is it to drug-mule a set of skeleton keys? How many seconds were spent making the Functionary masks and how much change did they get out of a pound note? And were Jim and Martin amused by the miniscope or did it leave them colder than an Inter Minor welcome? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found...

142: The Underwater Menace
Krynoid PodCast
The Krynoid PodCast boys welcome you back to the Green Cathedral this Yuletide to offer you perhaps the closest thing to a pantomime that '60s Who gets, The Underwater Menace. What the heck is the Doctor wearing and why? Is the rest of the Atlanteans' male grooming as lax as their eyebrows? How will Polly's groovy new gills go down on the swinging King's Road? And did this soggy saga float Jim and Martin's boats or was it like watching a shipwreck? Listen to find out! This episode can also be found at , , and all other podcatchers (as far as we know).

140: The Abominable Snowmen
Krynoid PodCast
Jim and Martin spring a festive surprise with some new Krynoid PodCast material! They scan the snowless Snowdonian slopes for monstrous myths and find the Doctor giving an old friend a bell, Victoria repeating herself and Jamie threatening everyone with a bagpipe recital.

Announcement
Krynoid PodCast
An announcement on the future of the Krynoid PodCast.
info_outlineA bit of holiday advice from the Green Cathedral: better a staycation in Blighty than a sojourn on Uxarieus, a planet more miserable than Raymond Cusick at a Dalek memorabilia auction.
But this monochrome blob of clay is surprisingly sought after, with hairy hippies and corporate breadheads alike fighting to the death over it. And perhaps the indigenous residents might even feel they have a claim to the land. Not that anyone cares about that, of course.
As well as providing mud, rain and a single flower, Uxarieus offers a mother lode of the very mineral that the twelvty squillion residents of 25th Century Earth desperately need and the very eff-off WMD the Master evilly craves.
So, to this end, the future Rev Magister pretends to be an Adjudicator while the wiggy Cap'n Dent tries to put the willies up the colonists with rubbish robots and home videos of his pet gecko.
Throw in a crap puppet, prune-faced priests, over-Botoxed primitives and a prescient nod to a taboo TV host and we have something of a carnival of monsters.
But did Jim and Martin warm to the wet February clay pit that is the Colony In Space or did it leave them colder than Terry Walsh's wobbly bits?
