  • Ok but

    What is wrong with these people ? Typical loony lefties who proactively go out of their way to look for offence where there is none. Manic Chen is racist ? Get a grip.

    Or visit a healthcare professional ! Sad.

    Obsessed with nonsense like how many female characters are in a scene. Mentioning it once is enough. Just enjoy the damn show and stop looking for irrelevant things.

  • Great intro to Classic Who!

    I started watching Classic Who because of Sutekh because I don’t think you can get the full impact of the season finale without watching the Classic arc. RTD is mining from the Classics so I wanted to learn more about the Classic villains in particular.

    This podcast is a great way to add more detail, context and depth to the Classic episodes and the hosts have great chemistry!

    I love Radio Free Skaro and this was recommend by the hosts and I love it!
