Welcome to the newest episode of my 'Festive Flashback' series for the holidays!

Terminus: A Doctor Who Podcast

On this episode, after a little unexpected pandemic hiatus, I'm finally back again! And this time it's with a bonus episode featuring something that's a bit off the beaten path for my usual fare: a personal story-time episode of sorts! So, please join me as I fully recount the detailed story about how I got into Doctor Who in the first place -- way back in the dark ages of the 80s as a young geeky teenager! Given that my story has a lot of baby-queer-feels running throughout, I just thought that Pride month would be a great time to finally take the time to get the whole story recorded on my...

Terminus: A Doctor Who Podcast

As I mentioned in my Mini Ep #7 episode*, much like the Tenth Doctor said, "my head is so big, I need another head."  Or at least I need to narrow down my field of focus for episodes going forward, as my brain is bursting with ideas all over the place (and messing up the carpet!) with what to record about during The Long Hiatus between new Doctor Who episodes. So, I thought I'd put a little poll out there for listeners to see what you guys were interested in. Feel free to participate. Or not. I just thought it'd be fun to see what you guys think. Thanks!  ...

Every podcast has that one 'Cursed' Episode and this is mine. Whether it was technical issues, Life Issues, or perhaps even a bit of Mercury Retrograde at work, this episode has been a bit of a challenge to get out. Still, despite all the good, bad, and the ugly, I prevailed and my 'Spyfall' review is finally here for you guys! NOTE: I mention this at the top of the show, but I also wanted to mention here that this episode was actually recorded several weeks ago. So, because of that, some of what I had to say is a bit dated now that we've seen the finale. Still I sincerely hope that you give...

More Episodes

So, on this episode, I continue my journey through my 'Spark Joy' series with a little story that gives me so much happiness: 'K-9 and Company'!

Now this is basically a bit of a Halloween episode (albeit a day-ish late due to some unforeseen technical issues), as well as a bit of an early Christmas episode, so there's all sort of festivities within. Well, if you count me going on quite a bit about the goddess Hekate, witchcraft, retro swingers, my love of a silly robot dog, and squee about past companions returning – then, yes, definitely a big ole party of squeeful geekiness to behold! ('Have you met the French? My god, they know how to party.')

So, put on your party hats, get out your noise-makers, and maybe even don some long black witch-y robes, and enjoy the ride! I'm so glad to have you all aboard again on this Spooky Love Train! #choochoo
