One of you mentioned a guy in an Omega costume in your Reality War screening. I was like "no way, that was me!" I can confirm I took the helmet off when we were watching 🤣
This double act will provide you with many funny hours of great company. So glad to have stumbled upon this podcast. Many thanks to you both!
I came across About Time whilst looking for something to satisfy my Doccy Who obsession and this did not disappoint! Absolutely fabulous podcast. It is almost TOO funny… I had to postpone listening to the podcast for about a week into recovery after having a major operation because Stephen and Ben made me laugh so hard it hurt! On a more serious note, it is such a comforting and affirming listen as well, coming from a fellow neurodivergent human. Keep it up :)

I love Ben’s rambles and singing and I admire Stephen/Steven’s tolerance 🤣
