Used go be good but now this is just a collective of smug, loony lefty unloveds, who regurgitate the same smug guests who all think their world view is universal when the reality is completely different. Iain Martin was the last straw. Repugnant

Generally very good and I really like the two hosts.

These gents are funny and positive towards all Doctor Who, unless it’s the Web Planet, but then it’s hilarious. A fun format and worth a listen even if they’re talking about a DW episode you didn’t like.

Great stuff. Been listening to loads of episodes of this and really enjoy it. Hosts are brilliant and entertaining, and although the reViewing two stories together isn’t new this still feels refreshing.

Frequently Asked Questions About On the Time Lash
What is On the Time Lash about and what kind of topics does it cover?
