- Enjoyable and interesting
An update to my review of three years ago. I still love listening to this podcast and can’t wait for the next one to drop. I rather like the kazoo and Rick, when he drops by.

I do like this podcast a lot. Fascinating discussions (mostly). However, the two things I could do without: that kazoo tune (cringe) and the Lego bloke. Can’t stand him.
Apple Podcasts3lacus71United Kingdoma year ago - The best Who podcast
Funny and insightful takes on stories I thought there was nothing funny or insightful left to say!

Easily one of the best Who podcasts, with a rotating band of informed and likeable contributors comparing old and new episodes. Amusing, intelligent and always rewarding. The format works well, though perhaps the choice of episodes to compare needs to be based less on superficial features (Pirates! Singing!)and more about how similar themes or ideas are treated differently.

I enjoy Something Who immensely. It has knowledgeable regular contributors who offer entertaining insights on Doctor Who episodes from the classic and modern eras. They often have interesting guests and there’s usually a few chuckles to be had along the way. Sometimes it provides an out loud laugh or two. Recommended.
