No, I'm not being put out to tender... but now I want chicken tenders again. This is just a short update on my plans for the podcast including a new upload frequency and some new series ideas I have to help keep the conversation going for Doctor Who! Please leave all of your thoughts, feedback and ideas in the comments below!

With the news out about Doctor Who's future and the fandom in disarray, there's only one guest we can have on the podcast to give us 80 minutes of delirium and laughs in the face of one of Doctor Who's darkest periods... join Troy AND CRISPY as they reflect on the news of Doctor Who's tender - and have a laugh as they catch up!

Well... we got the announcement, and it wasn't even close to what any of us wanted. From Christmas being cancelled for the show, Russell's questionable departure statement and the lies/questions that have surfaced as a result, there was a LOT to discuss - so Troy did a live episode on YouTube last night. Here it is on audio platforms!

With Russell T Davies' big announcement for Doctor Who coming any time now, one question has been creeping across the fandom - will the Christmas special still make its 2026 deadline, or will rumoured (but hopefully untrue) internal chaos and filming schedule problems cause it to be pushed back? Let's debate it all...

I'm taking another week off to help ease some other pressures at the moment (and give myself some actual free time...) but in the meantime I wanted to share some news for the fandom, as well as announce the next-call in!

In just a few days, it'll be one year since the most recent Doctor Who episode, The Reality War, aired on BBC1, Disney+ and in UK cinemas. 12 months on, is it as bad as everyone said at the time? Join Troy and special guest Cooper Britton of Nostalgia Bait, as they discuss the highs and lows of The 15th Doctor's finale, one year on...

Between regenerations, companion exits, powerful musical moments and defining speeches, there are plenty of emotional moments in Doctor Who - but which stand out most? Join me as I take a host of your calls and debate the most emotionally powerful episodes and scenes in the show...
